"low voltages", as also the subsequent modification No.93/68.
N.B. The pump has been constructed in a ccordance with best practice. Both its life and it electrical and
mechanical reliability will be enhanced if it is correctly used and subjected to regular maintenance.

be kept out of the reach of children: they constitute potential sources of danger.
• B efore you connect the pump, make s ure that the voltage ratings, etc., correspond to your particular power
supply. You will find these values on the rating plate attached to the pump.
• The electrical installation to which the pump is connected must comply with t he standards and good prac-
tice rule in force in the country under consideration.
• Use of electrical equipment always implies observance of s ome basic rules: In particular: 1 - do not touch the equipment
with wet or damp hands or feet;
2 - do not operate the pump with bare feet (Example: swimming pool equipment);
3 - do not leave the equipment exposed to the action of the atmospheric agents;
4 - do not allow the pump to be used by children or unskilled individuals without supervision;
• In case of breakdown or imp roper functioning of the pump, switch off, bu t do not touch. Contact our techni-
cal assistance for any necessary repairs and insist on the use of or iginal spares. Failure to respect this con-
dition could render the pump unsafe for use.
• When you decide to make no further use of an installed pump, make sure to disconnect it f rom the power
supply.
Before carrying out any service on the item, check:
1. Disconnect from the ma ins or b y means of a single pole circuit breaker, having 3 mm minimum distance
between the contacts. (Fig. 4).
2. Relieve all the pressure from the injection tube.
In event of possible losses in the hydraulic system of the pump (breakage of the "O" ring gasket, the valves or the hoses)
the pump should immediately be brought to a stop, emptying and depressurizing the delivery hose while taking all due
safety precautions (gloves, goggles, overalls, etc.).
