IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE 

 

To:  Our Valued Customers 

User safety is a major focus in the design of our products.  Following the precautions outlined in this 
manual will minimize your risk of injury. 

ITT Goulds pumps will provide safe, trouble-free service when properly installed, maintained, and 
operated.   

Safe installation, operation, and maintenance of ITT Goulds Pumps equipment are an essential end user 
responsibility.  This 

Pump Safety Manual 

identifies specific safety risks that must be considered at all 

times during product life. Understanding and adhering to these safety warnings is mandatory to ensure 
personnel, property, and/or the environment will not be harmed.  Adherence to these warnings alone, 
however, is not sufficient — it is anticipated that the end user will also comply with industry and corporate 
safety standards.  Identifying and eliminating unsafe installation, operating and maintenance practices is 
the responsibility of all individuals involved in the installation, operation, and maintenance of industrial 
equipment. 

Please take the time to review and understand the safe installation, operation, and maintenance guidelines 
outlined in this Pump Safety Manual and the Instruction, Operation, and Maintenance (IOM) manual.  
Current manuals are available at  

www.gouldspumps.com/literature_ioms.html or by contacting

 

your nearest Goulds Pumps sales representative.  

These manuals must be read and understood before installation

 

and start-up.
