GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
All the personnel involved with the assembly, operation or maintenance of electrical installations must be permanently
informed and updated on the standards and safety instructions that guide the job and are advised to strictly comply with
them. Before beginning any job, the person in charge must make sure that all points have been duly observed and warn the

handling, or failure to comply with the
operating standards, may cause severe
personal injuries and material damages.
ATTENTION
When devices and equipment are used
outside the industrial environment, the user

They have this manual and all other documents
supplied with the motor at hand, as well as that they
perform the tasks in strict compliance with the service
instructions, relevant standards and specific product
documentation;
ATTENTION
Failure to comply with installation and safety
standards may void the product warranty.
Firefighting equipment and first aid notices
must be available in visible and easily
accessible locations at the work site.
Qualified personnel must also observe:
All the technical data regarding the allowed applications
(operating conditions, connections and installation
environment), included in the catalog, in the purchase
order documents, in the operating instructions, in
manuals and all other documentation;
The specific regulations and conditions for the local
installation;
The use of suitable tools and equipment for handling
and transportation;
That the protective devices of the individual
