Please read the following carefully in order to gain an understanding of safety precautions.
This product was developed as components for driving automated equipment and is not designed to produce greater torquing or
speed than is necessary. However, strictly observe the following items to prevent any accidents from occurring:
1.
As a rule, any handling or operating methods not described in this manual should be viewed as things that should not be
attempted. Please contact the company if any portion of the contents of this manual are unclear.
2.
Use only the products specified for wiring between the actuator and controller.
3.
Stand clear of the operating range of the machine when it is in motion or is ready to operate. Surround the system with safety
partitions if there is a possibility that people can enter the area where the machine is being used.
4.
When assembling, adjusting, or performing maintenance on the machine, always disengage the power supply to the controller.
During work, display a sign stating work in progress where it is readily visible. Also, keep the power cable close to the
operator so that another person cannot inadvertently switch on the power.
5.
When more than one person is working on the system, agree on signals beforehand to ensure everyone's safety before
beginning work. In particular, when doing work involving axis movement, always call out for everyone's safety regardless of
whether power is ON or OFF, or the axis is to be mechanically driven or manually moved.
6.
When the user needs to lengthen the cables, check the wiring carefully to make sure it is correct before turning the power ON
since miswiring can lead to misoperation.
7.
Do not change the controller parameters without first consulting with an Intelligent Actuator representative. Any
alternation to the parameters not suggested by IA technical staff will void the user warranty and lead to damage of equipment.
