2.2 Responsibility of the operator

The  pumps are produced in accordance with the generally recognized
rules of engineering, as well as the occupational health, safety and acci-
dent prevention regulations. Nevertheless, dangers can arise during their
use that lead to injuries to the user or third parties or to damage to the
pump or other property.

Only use the pumps in perfect technical condition, for their intended use,
safely and with an awareness of the dangers and in observation of the op-
erating and installation instructions.

The components that are to be connected to the pumps must be designed
according to the pneumatic data of the pumps.

When connecting the pumps to the electrical power, observe the corre-
sponding safety rules.

Make sure that no hazardous situation, physical harm or impairment of the
pump can occur.
