NOTICE
Motor damage due to interchanged motor connecting cables
The direction in which the motor rotates switches if you exchange the two phases of the
motor line. A motor with an incorrect direction of rotation can damage the machine or
installation. Work machines with only one permissible direction of rotation include certain
compressors, saws and pumps.
● Connect the three phases of the motor lines in the right order.
● After replacing the Power Module, check the direction of motor rotation.
