General Safety Instructions
Thank you for choosing an IntelliGear Plus Gearmotor.
• Read and follow all instructions carefully.
• Disconnect and lock-out power before installation and maintenance. Working on or
near energized equipment can result in severe injury or death.
• Disconnect power at least 2 minutes prior to servicing to allow capacitors to discharge.
Handling wires sooner than this could result in electric shock, severe injury, or death.
• Do not operate equipment without guards in place. Exposed equipment can result in
severe injury or death.
• Any eyebolts that have been supplied with the breakmotor or gearmotor are designed
for lifting only these components. Lifting additional weight attached to theses
components may break the eyebolt and result in personal injury or death, and product
damage.
• IntelliGear Plus contains parts sensitive to static electricity. Care should be taken to
discharge static prior to handling these components to avoid damage to them.
• Contact Emerson Power Transmission for recommendations for units running at slow
speeds or unusual conditions.
• All electrical work should be performed by qualified personnel and compliant with local
and national electrical codes.
• Periodic inspections should be performed. Failure to perform proper maintenance can
result in premature product failure and personal injury.
