  Indicates something that must be done.

	Do not subject the Product to water, corrosive or flammable gases, and combustibles.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in fire, electrical shocks, damages and break-downs.
	Do not place combustibles near by the motor, drivered regenerative resistor and dynamic break resister...
	Don't use the motor in a place subject to excessive vibration or shock.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in electrical shock, injury or fire.
	Don't use cables soaked in water or oil.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in electrical shocks, damages and break-downs.
	The installation area should be away from heat generating objects such as heater and a large wire wound resistor.	Failure to observe this instuction could result in fire and breakdowns.
	Never connect the motor directly to the commercial power supply.
	Don't attempt to carry out wiring or manual operation with wet hand.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in electrical shocks, injury or fire.
	Do not put your hands in the servo driver.	Failure to observe this instrution could result in burn and electrical shocks.
	In the case of the motor with shaft end keyway, do not touch the keyway with bare hands.	Failure to observe this instruction couldd result in personal injury.
	Do not touch the rotating portion of the motor while it is running. Failure to observe this instruction could result in damages and breakdowns.
	Do not drive the motor with external power.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in file.
	Do not subject the cables to excessive force, heavy object, or pinching force, nor damage the cables.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in electrical shocks, damages and breakdowns.
	Installation area should be free from excessive dust, and from splashing water and oil.	Failure to heed this precaution will result in electric shock, personal injury, fire, malfunction or damage.
	Mount the motor, driver and peripheral equipments on incombustible material such as metal.	Installation on a flammable material may cause fire.
	Wiring has to be carried out by the qualified and authorized specialist.	Allowing a person with no expertise to carry out wiring will result in electrical shocks.
	Correctly run and arrange wiring.	Incorrecdt wiring will result in short circuit, electric shock, personal injury, etc.
	After correctly connecting cables, insulate the liver parts with insulator.	Incorrect wiring will result short circuit, electric shock, fire or malfunction.
	Ground the earth terminal of the motor and driver without fail.	Floating ground circuit will cause electric shock.
	Install and mount the Product and machinery securely to prevent any possible fire or accidents incurred by earthquake.	Failure to head this requirement will result in electric shock, personal injury, fire, malfunction or damage.
	Install an emergency stop circuit externally so that you can stop the operation and shut off the power immediately.
	Install an overcurrent protection, earth leakage breaker, over-temperature protection and emergency stop apparatus without fail.	Failure to heed these requirements will result in electric shock, personal inquiry or fire.
	Check and confirm the safety of the operation after the earthquake.
	Before transporting, wiring and inspecting the driver, turn off power and wait for a time longer than that specified on the name plate on the side panel of the product; and make sure that there is no risk of electrical shock.	Energized circuit will cause electric shock.

	Do not hold the motor cable or motor shaft during the transportation.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in injuries.
	Don't drop or cause topple over of something during transportation or installation.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in injuries and breakdowns.
	Do not step on the Product nor place the heaavy object on them.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in electrical shocks, injuries, breakdowns and damages.
	Don't place any obstacle object around the motor and peripheral, which blocks air passage.	Temperature rise will cause burn injury or file.
	Don't use the equipment under direct sunshine.	Failure to heed these instructions will cause personal injury or fire.
	Do not block the heat dissipating holes or put the foreign particles into theme.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in electrical shocks and fire.
	Do not give trong impact shock to the Product.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in breakdowns.
	Do not give strong impact shock to the motor shaft.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in failure of the detector etc.
	Do not turn on and off the main power of the driver repeatedly.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in breakdowns.
	Never run or stop the motor with the electro-magnetic contactor installed in the main power side.
	Do not make an extreme gain adjustment or change of the drive. Do not keep the machine running/operating unstably.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in injuries.
	Do not use the built-in break as a "Braking" to stop the moving load.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in injuries and breakdowns.
	Do not approach to the machine since it may suddenly restart after the power resumption. Design the machine to secure the safety for the operator even at a sudden restart.	Failure to observe this instruction could result in injuries.
	Never attempt to perform modification, dismantle or repair.	Failure to heed this instruction will result in fire, electric shock, personal injury or malfunction.
	Make an appropriate mounting of the Product matching to its wight and output rating.	Failure to heed these requirements will result in personal injury or malfunction.
	Observe the specified mounting method and direction.
	Use the eye bolt of the motor for transportation of the motor only, and never use this transportation of the machine.	Using it for transportation of the machine will cause personal injury or malfunction.
	Adjust the motor and driver ambient environmental condition to match the motor operating temperature and humidity.	Failure to heed these requirements will result in personal injury or malfunction.
	Create the specified clearance between the driver and the control panel inner surface or other devices.
	Observe the specified voltage.	Operation from a voltage outside the rated voltage will cause electric shock, personal injury or fire.
	Connect the break control relay to the relay which is to shut off at emergency stop in series.	Missing of one of these devices will result in personal injury or malfunction.
	Provide protection device against idling of electromagnetic brake or gear head, or grease leakage from gear head.	No protection will cause personal injury, damage, pollution or fire.
	Use the motor and the driver in the specified combination.	Not using the motor and the driver in the specified combination will result in fire.
	Test-run the securely fixed motor without loading to verify normal operation, and then connect it to the mechanical system.	Operation using a wrong model or wrong wiring connection will result in personal injury.
	When any error occurs, remove the cause and release the error after securing the safety, then restart.	Not removing the cause of the error will result in personal injury.
	If the driver fails, shut off the power on the power supply side of the driver.	Allowing a large current to continue to pass will result in fire.
	Always keep power disconnected when the power is not necessary for a long time.	Improper operation will cause personal injury.
When you dispose the batteries, observe any applicable regulations or laws after insulating them with tape.
This Product shall be treated as Industrial Waste when you dispose.
