Safety Messages

Please read the following safety messages before troubleshooting or performing mainte- nance on the inverter and motor system.

WARNING: Wait at least five (5) minutes after turning off the input power supply before performing maintenance or an inspection. Otherwise, there is the danger of electric shock.

WARNING: Make sure that only qualified personnel will perform maintenance, inspec- tion, and part replacement. (Before starting to work, remove any metallic objects from your person (wristwatch, bracelet, etc.). Be sure to use tools with insulated handles. Otherwise, there is a danger of electric shock and/or injury to personnel.

WARNING: Never remove connectors by pulling on its wire leads (wires for cooling fan and logic p.c.board). Otherwise, there is a danger of fire or injury due

to wire breakage.

CAUTION: When removing connectors, never pull the wires (wires for the cooling fan and logic P.C. board. Otherwise, there is danger of fire due to wire breakage and/or injury to personnel.

General Precautions and Notes

Always keep the unit clean so that dust or other foreign matter does not enter the inverter.

Take special care in regard to breaking wires or making connection mistakes.

Firmly connect terminals and connectors.

Keep electronic equipment away from moisture and oil. Dust, steel filings and other foreign matter can damage insulation, causing unexpected accidents, so take special care.
