During handling to maintain appropriate safety distances.
Before executing any operation, make sure that the cables are disconnected from the power supply.
Verify that the data shown on the plate, and in particular, power, frequency, voltage, absorbed current, are
compatible with the characteristics of the electric line or current generator available. In particular, the voltage
of the line voltage can have a variance of ± 5% from the nominal voltage value on the plate.
Verify that the protection and insulation grade indicated on the plate are compatible with the environmental
conditions.
