Thank you for purchasing an Oriental Motor product.
This Operating Manual describes product handling procedures and safety
precautions.
y Please read it thoroughly to ensure safe operation.
y Always keep the manual where it is readily available.
General
y Do not use the motor in explosive or corrosive environments, in the
presence of flammable gases, in places subjected to splashing water, or
near combustibles. Doing so may result in fire, electric shock, or injury.
y Assign qualified personnel to the task of installing, wiring, operating/
controlling, inspecting, and troubleshooting the motor. Handling by
unqualified personnel may result in fire, electric shock, injury, or damage to
equipment.
y Do not transport, install, connect, or inspect the motor while the power is
supplied. Always turn the power off before carrying out these operations.
This may result in electric shock.
y Take measures to keep the moving part in position if the motor is used
in vertical operations such as elevating equipment. The motor loses the
holding torque when the power is shut off, allowing the moving parts to fall
and possibly cause injury or damage to equipment.
y The brake mechanism of the electromagnetic brake motor is used for the
purpose to hold the moving part and motor in position. Do not use the
brake mechanism of the electromagnetic brake motor for braking or as a
safety brake. Doing so may result in injury or damage to equipment.
Installation
y When installing the motor, prevent from directly touching the motor, or
make sure to ground it. Failure to do so may result in electric shock.
Connection
y Connect the motor securely according to the motor connection method
explained in the USER MANUAL. Failure to do so may result in fire or electric
shock.
y Do not forcibly bend, pull, or pinch the connection cable. Doing so may
result in fire or electric shock.
Repair, disassembly, and modification
y Do not disassemble or modify the motor. Doing so may result in electric
shock or injury. Refer all such internal inspections and repairs to the Oriental
Motor sales office from which you purchased the product.
General
y Do not use the motor beyond its specifications. Doing so may result in
electric shock, injury, or damage to equipment.
y Do not touch the motor during operation or immediately after stopping.
The surface is hot, and this may cause a skin burn(s).
Transportation
y Do not carry the motor by holding the motor output shaft, the load shaft,
or the cable. Doing so may result in injury.
Installation
y Install the safety cover on the output shaft. Failure to do so may result in
injury.
y Do not leave anything around the motor that would obstruct ventilation.
Doing so may result in damage to equipment.
