Using the Hanging Brackets to Move the Drive

Use the hanging brackets attached to the drive to temporarily lift the drive when you install the drive to a control
panel or wall or when you replace the drive. Do not let the drive stay vertically or horizontally suspended or move the
drive over a long distance while it is suspended.
Before you install the drive, make sure that you read these precautions:
WARNING! Crush Hazard. Before you hang the drive vertically, use screws to correctly attach the drive front cover and other drive
components. If you do not secure the front cover, it can fall and cause minor injury.
WARNING! Crush Hazard. When you use a crane or hoist to lift the drive during installation or removal, prevent more than 1.96 m/s
(0.2 G) vibration or impact. Too much vibration or impact can cause serious injury or death from falling equipment.
WARNING! Crush Hazard. When you lift the drive during installation or removal, do not try to turn the drive over and do not ignore
the hanging drive. If you move a hanging drive too much or if you ignore it, the drive can fall and cause serious injury or death.
WARNING! Crush Hazard. When you install the drive, do not hold the front cover. Install the drive with holding the heatsink. If you
hold the front cover, the cover will come off and the drive will fall, then it can cause injury.
