11.5 Risk of Hot Surfaces
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Contact with hot
engine and water
pump components
Contact with hot surfaces, such as engine
exhaust components, could result in
serious burns.
During operation, touch only the control
surfaces of the water pump. Keep children
away from the water pump at all times. They
may not be able to recognise the hazards of
this product.
11.6 Risk of Moving Parts
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Contact with moving
parts can result in
serious injury
The water pump contains parts that rotate
at high speed during operation. These
parts are covered by guarding to prevent
injury.
Never operate the water pump with
guarding or cover plates removed. Avoid
wearing loose-fitting clothing or jewellery
which could be caught by moving parts.
11.7 Risk from Lifting
Hazard
What could happen
How to prevent it
Lifting a very heavy
object
Serious injury can result from attempting to
lift too heavy an object.
When lifting, always keep the object you
are lifting near the vertical axis of your
body. Do not use your back to lift heavy
loads. Both people should crouch down,
grab the underside of the unit and use their
legs to carry the weight. Keep the object as
near the centre of your body’s gravity as
possible. Avoid twisting your body when
carrying the unit; instead, turn your whole
body using your feet.
