NOTICE
◇The brake of the STP pump disengages at approx. 1000 rpm and the "BRAKE" lamp goes out. The STP pump rotates by inertia even after the "BRAKE" lamp has gone out.
Powering OFF immediately after the "BRAKE" lamp goes out or while any lamp of the “ACCELERATION," "NORMAL OPERATION," or "BRAKE" lamp is being lit causes the touch down bearing to touch the rotor resulting in a noise.
Frequent POWER OFF operations will expedite the wear of the touch down bearing. It is recommended to power OFF the STP pump after it stops thoroughly.
