Note
The items under this heading contain important
handling instructions that the user should observe
to ensure safe use of the product.
•Do not use the product in explosive or corrosive environments, in the
presence of ammable gases, in places subjected to splashing water, or near
combustibles. Doing so may result in re, electric shock or injury.
•Only qualied and educated personnel should be allowed to perform
installation, connection, operation and inspection/troubleshooting of the
product. Handling by unqualied and uneducated personnel may result in
re, electric shock, injury or damage to equipment.
•Do not transport, install, connect or inspect the product while the power is
supplied. Always turn o the power before carrying out these operations.
Electric shock or damage to equipment may result.
•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 ClassⅠequipment. Install the motor so as to avoid contact with
hands, or ground it to prevent the risk of electric shock.
•Keep the input power voltage within the specied range. Failure to do so may
result in re or electric shock.
•Securely connect the cables in accordance with the connection diagram.
Failure to do so may result in re or electric shock.
•Do not forcibly bend, pull or pinch the lead wire or cable. Doing so may result
in re, electric shock or damage to equipment.
•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 may 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 result in electric shock,
injury or damage to equipment. Refer all such internal inspections and repairs
to the branch or sales oce from which you purchased the product.
•Do not use the motor beyond the specications. Doing so may result in re,
electric shock, injury or damage to equipment.
•Do not lift up the motor by holding the output shaft, lead wire or cable. Doing
so may result in injury.
•Do not touch the motor output shaft (end or pinion) with bare hands. Doing
so may result in injury.
•Keep the area around the motor free of combustible materials. Failure to do
so may result in re or a skin burn(s).
•Do not leave anything around the motor that would obstruct ventilation.
Doing so may result in damage to equipment.
•Provide a cover over the rotating part (output shaft). Failure to do so may
result in injury.
•Do not touch the motor while operating or immediately after stopping. The
surface of the motor is hot and it may cause a skin burn(s).
•Do not touch the rotating parts (output shaft, cooling fan) while operating
the motor. Doing so may result in injury.
•When an abnormality is noted, turn o the power immediately. Failure to do
so may result in re, electric shock or injury.
•The motor surface temperature may exceed 70 °C (158 °F)
even under normal operating conditions. If the operator
is allowed to approach the motor in operation, attach a
warning label in a conspicuous position as shown in the
gure. Failure to do so may result in a skin burn(s). Warning label
