SAFETY PRECAUTIONS B-65382EN/02
s-4
WARNING
- When moving the motor, use a crane or another equipment.
A motor is a heavy object. Use a crane or another equipment as
required (for the weight of the motor, see this manual).
When moving the motor, lift it using a fabric rope passed round the
motor in balance or a dedicated handing jig. If it is absolute necessary
to use a tapped hole for lifting the motor, lift only the motor from the
side on which coating is not applied all over the surface (iron is
partially exposed).
- Be careful of the magnetic attraction when installing the motor.
A linear motor has the magnet attraction about 2.5 to 3 times as strong
as the maximum force. Before work, consider the magnetic attraction,
prepare devices, and take safety measures to prevent accidents.
- Do not touch a motor with a wet hand.
A failure to observe this caution is vary dangerous because you may
get electric shocks.
- Before starting to connect a motor to electric wires, make sure they are isolated
from an electric power source.
A failure to observe this caution is vary dangerous because you may
get electric shocks.
- Do not bring any dangerous stuff near a motor.
Motors are connected to a power line, and may get hot. If a flammable
is placed near a motor, it may be ignited, catch fire, or explode.
- Be sure to ground a motor frame.
To avoid electric shocks, be sure to connect the grounding terminal in
the terminal box to the grounding terminal of the machine.
- Do not ground a motor power wire terminal or short-circuit it to another power
wire terminal.
A failure to observe this caution may cause electric shocks or a burned
wiring.
- Connect power wires securely so that they will not get loose.
A failure to observe this caution may cause a wire to be disconnected,
resulting in a ground fault, short circuit, or electric shock.
- Do not supply the power to the motor while any terminal is exposed.
A failure to observe this caution is very dangerous because you may
get electric shocks if your body or any conductive stuff touches an
exposed terminal.
