Installation, use and maintenance
M0352A EN
Using the pump unit in a dry state, i.e. with no fluid or with insufficient fluid, can damage it
irreparably. Dry pumping increases the operating speed of the pneumatic motor, resulting
in overheating and possible failure.
If operating at low temperatures, we recommend that you use systems to protect against
the formation of ice.
Don’t shut off the air supply while the pump is working. For its correct working never go
down below the declared pressure.

Safety instructions
The system is designed and manufactured to require minimal
maintenance. Before carrying out any maintenance operation, it is
imperative to decompress the dispensing system with the aid of the
bleed ball valves. It is strictly forbidden to carry out any maintenance
operation if the circuit contains compressed air capable of causing the
pump to start suddenly.
Personal protective equipment (PPE) must be worn when carrying out
maintenance work.
Take account of the following minimum recommendations for correct
operation of the pump.

Measures to be
taken

deteriorate over time or come off.
