Product Specific Precautions
High voltages capable of causing severe
injury or death by electrical shock are
present in this unit.
•
Do not remove VFD cover for wiring or periodic inspec-
tions while power is applied, or the unit is in operation.
•
Capacitors inside the drive can still hold lethal voltage
even after power has been disconnected—ALLOW 5 MIN-
UTES FOR DANGEROUS INTERNAL VOLTAGE TO DIS-
CHARGE BEFORE REMOVING COVER OR WORKING WITH
INTERNAL COMPONENTS.
•
Perform wiring after VFD has been mounted. Otherwise,
electric shock or bodily injury can occur.

Do not apply power to a damaged VFD or to VFD with
missing parts.
•
Do not use VFD if power or motor cable is damaged.
