Introduction
Manual Objectives
This document is intended as a supplementary addition to the 1336 PLUS 
6.1 Troubleshooting Guide. This supplement covers the additional 
information you will need to help troubleshoot or repair an Allen-Bradley 
Bulletin 1336 PLUS II Adjustable Frequency AC Drive with A1 - A4 
Frames.
Who Should Use This 
Manual
This manual is intended for qualified service personnel responsible for 
troubleshooting and repairing the 1336 PLUS II Adjustable Frequency AC 
Drive. You should:
• Read this entire manual before performing maintenance or repairs to 
drives.
• Have previous experience with, and basic understanding of, electrical 
terminology, procedures, required troubleshooting equipment, equipment 
protection procedures and methods, and safety precautions.
!
ATTENTION: 
Some printed circuit boards and drive 
components may contain hazardous voltage levels. Remove and 
lock out power before you disconnect or reconnect wires, and 
before you remove or replace fuses and circuit boards. Verify bus 
voltage by measuring the voltage between +DC and -DC on 
Terminal Block TB1. Do not attempt to service the drive until the 
bus voltage has discharged to zero volts.
ATTENTION:
Potentially fatal voltages may result from 
improper useage of oscilliscope and other test equipment. The 
oscilliscope chassis may be at a potentially fatal voltage if not 
properly grounded. If an oscilliscope is used to measure high 
voltage waveforms, use only a dual channel oscilliscope in the 
differential mode with X 100 probes. It is recommended that the 
oscilliscope be used in the A minus B Quasi-differential mode with 
the oscilloscope chassis correctly grounded to an earth ground.
ATTENTION:
Only personnel familiar with the 1336 PLUS II 
AC Drive and associated machinery should plan or implement the 
installation, start-up and subsequent maintenance of the system. 
Failure to comply may result in personal injury and/or equipment 
damage.
