Initial Control Inspection

Danger: At this point, there should be no electrical

connection to the machine. Electrical panel must be

closed and secured. When main switch is on, there is

HIGH VOLTAGE throughout the electrical panel (including

the circuit boards and logic circuits) and some

components operate at high temperatures. Therefore,

exercise extreme caution when working in the panel.

• Set the main breaker switch at the upper right of

the electrical panel on the back of the machine to
OFF.

• Using a screwdriver, unlock the two latches on

the panel door, unlock the cabinet with the key
and open the door.

• Take sufficient time to check all the components

and connectors associated with the circuit
boards. Look for any cables that have become
disconnected, look for any signs damage and
loose parts in the bottom of the panel box. If
there are any signs that the machine was
mishandled, call the factory before proceeding.

1-Phase Machines:

Insert each power lead

into the wire cover. Connect the two power

leads to L1 and L3 terminals on top of the

main circuit breaker.

3-Phase Machines:

Insert each power lead

into the wire cover. Connect the three

power leads to L1, L2 and L3 terminals on

top of the main circuit breaker.

Connect the separate ground line to the

ground bus to the left of the terminals.

Note:

Make sure that the leads actually

go into the terminal-block clamps . (A poor

connection will cause the machine to run

intermittently or have other problems, such

as servo overloads.) To check, simply pull on

the wires after the screws are tightened.
