1. Safety precautions
When the overheat protection device (thermal protector) of the electromagnetic brake motor is
activated, the electromagnetic brake does not hold the motor shaft (a load). Provide safety measures
separately. This may result in injury or damage to equipment.
The motor is Class
Ⅰ
equipment. Install the motor so that it is out of the direct reach of users, or ground
if users can touch it. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
Always keep the power supply voltage within the specied range. Failure to do so may result in re or
electric shock.
Perform connections securely according to the connection diagram. Failure to do so may result in re
or electric shock.
Insulate the connection terminals of the included capacitor. Failure to do so may result in electric
shock.
Turn o the power in the event of a power failure. Otherwise, the motor may suddenly start when the
power is restored, causing injury or damage to equipment.
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, the lead wire, or the cable. Doing so may result
in injury.
Do not touch the motor output shaft (shaft end or pinion section) 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.
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 part (output shaft, cooling fan) while operating the motor. Doing so may
result in injury.
Provide a cover over the rotating part (output shaft). Failure to do so may result in injury.
When an abnormality is generated, 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 operating motor,
attach a warning label on a conspicuous position as shown in the gure. Failure to
do so may result in a skin burn(s). Warning label

Explanation of graphic symbols
Indicates “prohibited”actions that must
not be performed.
Indicates “compulsory”actions that must
be performed.
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.
Do not transport, install, connect, or inspect the product while the power is supplied. Always turn
o the power before carrying out these operations. This may result in electric shock or damage to
equipment.
Do not use the electromagnetic brake of the electromagnetic brake motor as a safety brake. Provide
safety measures separately. This may result in injury or damage to equipment.
Do not forcibly bend, pull, or pinch the lead wire and the cable. Doing so may result in re, electric
shock, or damage to equipment.
Do not touch the connection terminal of the capacitor immediately after turning o the power supply
(for a period of 30 seconds). Residual voltage may cause electric shock.
Do not disassemble or modify the motor. Doing so 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.
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.
Turn o the power supply if the overheat protection device (thermal protector) of the motor
is activated. The motor may suddenly start rotating when the overheat protection device is
automatically returned, causing injury or damage to equipment.
