3.2. GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read the instruction manual carefully before installing and starting the agitator. Contact INOXPA in
case of doubt.
3.2.1. During the installation
The installation and use of the agitator should always be in accordance with applicable regulations
in regard to health and safety.
Before starting up the agitator, check that it is properly anchored and its shaft is perfectly aligned.
Incorrect alignment and/or excessive stress during coupling can cause serious mechanical
problems in the agitator.
Take all possible precautions when lifting the agitator. Always use properly attached slings when
moving the agitator with a crane or other lifting device.
Keep the motor and the switchboard under control, particularly in areas where there is a risk of fire
or explosion.
When cleaning, do not spray directly on the engine.
Do not disassemble the agitator until the switchboard has been disconnected. Remove the fuses
and disconnect the power cable supplying the motor.
All electric work should be carried out by specialised personnel.
3.2.2. During operation
should always be observed. Under no circumstances can
the specified limit values be exceeded.
Before starting up the agitator, remove all the tools used during the assembly.
Do not operate the agitator when the rotating parts are not equipped with their guards or are not
properly assembled.
The agitator has rotating parts. Do not place hands or fingers in the agitator while it is operating.
This may cause serious injuries.
Do not touch the parts of the agitator that are in contact with the fluid when in operation. When the
agitator operates with hot fluids (temperatures above 50ºC), there is a risk of skin burning. In such
cases, collective-protection means (in this order or priority: separation, protective screen, heat-
insulating material) or, in the absence of this, individual protection gear (gloves) must be used.
