The following table indicates the installation direction of the standard servo motor.

When installing the servo motor in horizontal direction, it is recommended to set the connector section
downward. When installing it vertically or obliquely, provide a cable trap for the cable.

The servo motor with an electromagnetic brake can also be installed in the same direction as the standard
servo motor. When the servo motor with an electromagnetic brake is installed with the shaft upward, the
brake plate may generate a sliding sound, but it is not a fault.
