High voltage and rotating parts can cause serious or fatal injury. Qualified
personnel must perform safe operation, and maintenance. Familiarization with
and adherence to NEMA MG2, the National Electrical Code (NEC) and local
codes is required. It is important to observe safety precautions to protect
personnel from possible injury. Personnel should be instructed to:
1. Be familiar with the equipment and read all instructions thoroughly before
installing or working on equipment.
2. Avoid contact with energized circuits or rotating parts.
3. Disconnect all power sources before initiating any maintenance or repair.
4. Act with care in accordance with prescribed procedures in handling and
lifting this equipment.
5. Be sure unit is electrically grounded in accordance with code
requirements.

by children or other unauthorized personnel in order to prevent possible
accidents.
7. Be sure shaft key is fully captive before unit is energized.
8. Avoid contact with capacitors until safe discharge procedures have been
completed.
9. Provide proper guarding for personnel against rotating parts and
applications involving high inertia loads, which can cause overspeed.
10.
Avoid extended exposure to equipment with high noise levels.
INSPECTION AND HANDLING
Inspect unit to make sure no damage has occurred during shipment.
Check nameplate for correct speed, horsepower, voltage, Hertz, and phase for
conformance with power supply and equipment. WARNING: Units should be
lifted using all eyebolts or lugs if provided. These eyebolts or lugs are provided
for lifting this unit only and must not be used to lift any additional weight. Lifting
angle, from shank of eyebolt, must not exceed 30° for machines with single and
45° for machines with multiple lifting means. Replacement eyebolts must be per
