charge yourself before touching the product. Avoid contact with high insulating materials (artificial fabrics, plastic
film, etc.). Place the product on a conductive surface.
• During operation keep all covers attached, otherwise, there are deadly hazards that could possibility cause
severe damage to health or the product.
• In operation, depending on the degree of enclosure protection, the product can have bare components that
are live or have hot surfaces. Control and power cables can carry a high voltage even when the motor is not
rotating.
• Never pull out or plug in the product while the system is live. There is a danger of electric arcing and danger
to persons and contacts.
• After powering down the product, wait at least ten minutes before touching live sections of the equipment
or undoing connections (e.g., contacts, screwed connections). Capacitors can store dangerous voltages for long
