Installation and Wiring
Mounting Frame C Drives
All lifting equipment and lifting components (hooks, bolts, lifts, slings,
chains, etc.) must have a minimum lifting capacity of 453.6 kg (1,000 lb.).
Important: Verify that all mounting screws are properly tightened before
and after drive operation.
1. Verify the hole pattern on the panel to which the drive will be mounted.
2. Insert, but do not tighten, one bolt in one of the top holes in the panel.
The bolt must be fully threaded into the panel before hanging the drive.
3. Insert the properly sized and rated lifting hooks into the holes on the
lifting flanges at the top of the drive. To limit the pull in forces on the
drive, the lifting devices connected to the hooks must be long enough to
make the angle between the chain or cable and a vertical line extending
up from the flange center less than 45 degrees as illustrated below.

4. Lift the drive into place on to the bolt installed in the panel.
5. Install the remaining five bolts into the panel. Tighten all bolts to a
torque of 22.6 N•m (200 lb•in).
