DANGER:
THIS MANUAL PROVIDES INFORMATION AND DATA FOR THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION OF THIS MACHINE. ALL ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT MUST BE SERVICED BY QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE BEEN PROPERLY TRAINED TO WORK WITH HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEMS, VARIABLE FREQUENCY AC DRIVES, AND/ OR WARD LEONARD LOOP DC DRIVES. FAILURE TO COMPLY COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
DANGER:
DO NOT ATTEMPT MECHANICAL OR ELECTRICAL MAINTENANCE ON THIS MACHINE WITHOUT A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF EACH COMPONENT’S OPERATION AND FUNCTION. COMPONENTS UTILIZING ELECTRICAL POWER, AIR PRESSURE, HYDRAULIC PRESSURE AND COMPRESSION OR TENSION SPRINGS FOR OPERATION MUST BE DEACTIVATED AND ISOLATED PRIOR TO DISASSEMBLY.
The FEEDER CABLE must contain a provision for a ground connection, especially whenever 2,300 volts or greater are used. At the substation, the power line must terminate (see paragraph on ground circuits) to a suitable permanent ground. At the machine, the power line must securely terminate through a bolted connection to the machine frame. This provides a constant ground for the machine and its electrical equipment. Failure to provide this adequate ground endangers employees and equipment.
THE NEED FOR A POWER LINE GROUNDING CIRCUIT ADEQUATE FOR THE MACHINE CANNOT BE OVEREMPHASIZED. Without a good grounding system, high voltages exist between the machine and the ground. The portable trail cable and power lines supplying electric energy to the machine must have a ground wire, ample in capacity, running parallel to the main wires over the entire distance from the transformer to the machine. A suitable grounding system must be used at the transformer. Consult your local electrical supplier for details.
DANGER:
DUE TO THE INHERENT DANGERS IN THE OPERATION OF HIGH VOLTAGE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, A SAFE GROUNDING SYSTEM IS REQUIRED THAT INCLUDES GROUND CONDUCTORS IN THE CABLE, A NEUTRAL GROUNDING RESISTOR, AND RELATED RELAYS AND SWITCHGEAR. A GROUND CONTINUITY CHECK SYSTEM IS ALSO RECOMMENDED.
