3. Various precautions
Observe the following precautions. Incorrect handling of the unit could lead to faults, injuries and electric
shocks, etc.
(1) Transportation and installation
Correctly transport the product according to its weight.
Use the motor's hanging bolts only when transporting the motor. Do not transport the machine when the
motor is installed on the machine.
Do not stack the products above the tolerable number.
Follow this manual and install the unit or motor in a place where the weight can be borne.
Do not get on top of or place heavy objects on the unit.
Do not hold the cables, axis or detector when transporting the motor.
Do not hold the connected wires or cables when transporting the units.
Do not hold the front cover when transporting the unit. The unit could drop.
Always observe the installation directions of the units or motors.
Secure the specified distance between the units and control panel, or between the servo drive unit and
other devices.
Do not install or run a unit or motor that is damaged or missing parts.
Do not block the intake or exhaust ports of the motor provided with a cooling fan.
Do not let foreign objects enter the units or motors. In particular, if conductive objects such as screws or
metal chips, etc., or combustible materials such as oil enter, rupture or breakage could occur.
Provide adequate protection using a material such as connector for conduit to prevent screws, metallic
detritus, water and other conductive matter or oil and other combustible matter from entering the motor
through the power line lead-out port.
The units, motors and detectors are precision devices, so do not drop them or apply strong impacts to
them.
