•Do not use the product in explosive or corrosive environments,
in the presence of ammable gases, in water, or near
combustibles. Doing so may result in re, electric shock or injury.
•Assign qualied personnel the task of installing, wiring,
operating/controlling, inspecting and troubleshooting the product.
Failure to do so may result in re, electric shock or injury.
•Do not transport, install the product, perform connections or
inspections when the power is on. Always turn the power o
before carrying out these operations. Failure to do so may result
in electric shock.
•Turn o the power in the event the overheat protection device
(thermal protector) is triggered. Failure to do so may result
in injury or damage to equipment, since the motor will start
abruptly when the overheat protection device (thermal protector)
is automatically reset.
•The motor is Class I equipment. When installing the motor,
ground the motor using a protective grounding wire. Failure to
do so may result in electric shock.
•If the product is used in a place where it may come in contact
with water during operation, provide an earth leakage breaker.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
•Keep the input-power voltage within the specication to avoid
re and electric shock.
•Connect the cables securely according to the wiring diagram in
order to prevent re and electric shock.
•Do not forcibly bend, pull or pinch the cables. Doing so may
result in re and electric shock.
•Be sure to insulate the connection terminal of the capacitor.
Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
•Turn o the power in the event of a power failure, or the motor
will suddenly start when the power is restored and may cause
injury or damage to equipment.
•Do not touch the connection terminal of the capacitor
immediately after the power is turned o (for a period of 30
seconds). The residual voltage may cause electric shock.
•Do not disassemble or modify the motor. This may cause electric
shock or injury.
•Do not use the motor beyond its specications, or electric shock,
injury or damage to equipment may result.
•Do not touch the motor during operation or immediately after
stopping. The surface is hot and may cause a burn.
•Do not hold the motor output shaft or motor cable. This may
cause injury.
•Keep the area around the motor free of combustible materials in
order to prevent re or a burn.
•To prevent the risk of damage to equipment, leave nothing
around the motor that would obstruct ventilation.
•To prevent bodily injury, do not touch the rotating parts (output
shaft) of the motor during operation.
•When an abnormality is noted, turn o the power immediately,
or re, electric shock or injury may occur.
