• Make sure to ground the ground terminal according to the
local ground code.
Failure to observe this warning can result in electric shock
or fire. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39
CAUTION
(Ref. page)
• Verify that the inverter rated voltage coincides with the
AC power supply voltage.
Failure to observe this caution can result in personal injury
or fire.
• Do not perform a withstand voltage test of the inverter.
It may cause semi-conductor elements to be damaged.
• Make sure to tighten terminal screws of the main circuit
and the control circuit.
Failure to observe this caution can result in a malfunction,
damage or a fire. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 42
• Never connect the AC main circuit power supply to output
terminals U, V and W.
The inverter will be damaged and void the warranty. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 42
• Do not connect or disconnect wires or connectors while
power is applied to the circuit.
Failure to observe this caution can result in personal injury.

OPERATION
WARNING
(Ref. page)
• Only turn ON the input power supply after replacing the
digital operator or optional blank cover.
Do not remove the digital operator or the covers while
current is flowing.
Failure to observe this warning can result in electric shock.
• Never operate the digital operator or dip switches when
your hand is wet.
Failure to observe this warning can result in electric shock.
• Never touch the terminals while current is flowing, even
when the inverter is stopped.
Failure to observe this warning can result in electric shock.
• When the fault retry function is selected, stand clear of
the inverter or the load. It may restart unexpectedly
after being stopped.
(Construct machine system, so as to assure safety for personnel,
even if the inverter should restart.) Failure to observe this
warning can result in personal injury.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 75
• When continuous operation after power recovery is selected,
stand clear of the inverter or the load. It may restart
unexpectedly after being stopped.
(Construct machine system, so as to assure safety for personnel,
even if the inverter should restart.) Failure to observe this
warning can result in personal injury.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 70
• Since the digital operator stop button can be disabled by a
parameter setting, install a separate external emergency stop switch.
