Do not switch the load after the VFD while under power!! Use the RUN 
FORWARD and the RUN REVERSE to start and stop the motor. I had a couple 
of VFD's that did not have a reverse, only forward, so I used a drum 
switch between the VFD and the motor but only after the motor was at a 
complete stop.
