SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WORK AREA
1. Keep the work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite
accidents.
2. Keep children and bystanders away while working. Distractions can cause
you to lose control and bystanders should be kept at a safe distance from
the working area especially when work is in progress.
PERSONAL SAFETY
1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when using
this equipment. Do not operate this equipment when you are tired, ill or
under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
2. Do not over-reach. Keep your proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the equipment in unexpected situations.
3. Concentrate on the job in hand, no matter how trivial it may seem. Be
aware that accidents are caused by carelessness due to familiarity.

parts. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. For best footing,
wear rubber soled footwear. Keep floor clear of oil, scrap wood, etc.

supported and completely stable.

suddenly. If the vehicle is not adequately supported, it could fall with
possibly serious consequences.
7. Never use an additional extension handle to operate the pump.
8. Never modify this equipment in any way.
