13. HANDLING AND TRANSPORTATION
Before shipping, the 39050.. pumps are carefully packed inside cardboard boxes. When transporting and storing the equipment,
pay attention to the direction indicated on the boxes themselves.
Upon receipt, check that the package has not been damaged and store the equipment in a dry location.
Manual handling must be done by at least two people.
14. PRECAUTIONS
The warnings about the risks involved in using a pump for lubricants must be read.
The operator must understand its operation and clearly understand the hazards connected to pumping pressurized grease.
Therefore we recommend the following:
Check the chemical compatibility of the material with which the pump is built with the fluid to be pumped (see chap. 4). An
incorrect selection could cause, in addition to damaging the pumps and pipes, serious risks for people (spillage of irritating
products that are harmful to health) and for the environment.
Never exceed the maximum operating pressure permitted for the pump and the components connected to it. In the case of
doubt, refer to the data specified on the machine plate.
Only use original spare parts.
If components must be replaced with others, make sure they are suitable for operating at the pump's maximum operating
pressure.
Note:
Personnel must use protective devices, garments and tools in compliance with current standards with regard to the location
and the use of the pump both during work as well as during maintenance operations.
Electric current
Do not carry out any work on the machine before disconnecting it from the electrical power supply and making sure that no one
can reconnect it during the operation. All the installed equipment (electric and electronic), tanks and basic structures must be
connected to the ground line.
Inflammability
The lubricant used in the lubrication circuits is normally not an inflammable liquid. It is however necessary to adopt all the
possible measures to prevent that it comes into contact with very hot parts or open flames.
Pressure
Before each operation, make sure there is no residual pressure in every branch of the lubrication circuit that could cause oil to
spray when disassembling fittings or components.
After long periods of inactivity, check the seal of all the parts subject to pressure.
Do not subject the fittings, pipes and pressurized parts to violent impacts.
Damaged flexible pipes or fittings are DANGEROUS and must be replaced.
Only original spare parts should be used.
Noise
Under normal operating conditions, noise emission
does not exceed
70 dB
“A”
at a distance of 1 metre (39.3 inches) from the
pump.
Lift the equipment according to the direction shown on the cardboard package.
The machine components can support storage temperatures between
-20 to + 65 °C; however, to prevent damage, the machine must only be started up after the machine has reached a
temperature of +5 °C.
ATTENTION
: The warnings about the risks involved in using a pump for lubricants must be read. The user must
understand its operation using the user and maintenance manual.
ATTENTION!
Never try to stop or deviate any leaks with your hands or other body parts.
