ATTENTION: Be sure that cables are installed and restrained to
prevent uneven tension or flexing at the cable connectors. Use the
Bulk Head Connector Kit, catalog number LDC-BULK-HD, for
mounting these connectors.
Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable connectors may
result in the connector’s environmental seal opening and closing
as the cable flexes.
Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage
to the motor and its components.
ATTENTION: Do not connect or disconnect the motor feedback
cable or the power cable while power is applied. It may result in
unexpected motion or cause damage to the components.
