1.1  Types and meanings of warning terms and graphic symbols 

This instruction manual divides precautions into the following four categories according to the level 
of hazards (or the severity of the accident). In addition, prohibited or mandatory actions as well as 
cautions are indicated with a graphic symbol. 
Be sure to understand the meanings of the following terms and comply with the content 
(instructions) of the instruction manual

beware of. 

 
1.2 Safety 

precautions 

 Danger 

 

Do not touch any energized parts after turning on the main power. 

Doing so may cause electric shock leading to death because high voltage is applied to the energized part. 

 

Do not use the product in any explosive atmosphere. 

Doing so may cause an injury and fire. 

 

 Warning

 

 

Properly move the unit according to lifting 
instructions. 

Otherwise, the unit may fall, resulting in injury and/or 
damage. 

Do not use the pump or perform any work when it 
is kept lifted. 

Otherwise, the unit may fall, resulting in injury and/or 
damage. 

 

Only those who are authorized by the site 
manager are allowed to operate the pump. 

Operation by unskilled personnel may lead to an unforeseen 
accident. 

Installation, maintenance, and inspection must 
only be carried out by personnel who have been 
trained to handle the pump. 

Operation by unskilled personnel may lead to an unforeseen 
accident. 

 

 

Only qualified personnel, such as licensed 
electrical engineers, are allowed to carry out any 
electric work. 

Otherwise, it may lead to an electric shock, fire, failures, 
and/or other problems. 

Use high-quality wiring equipment and devices, 
and carry out wiring work safely and securely 
according to the technical standards for electrical 
facilities, as well as the indoor wiring regulations. 

Otherwise, it may lead to an electric shock, fire, and/or other 
problems. 

 

Do not connect the ground wire to a gas pipe or 
water pipe. 

Such a connection is illegal and leads to an electric shock, 
explosion and/or fire. 

Securely install the ground wire and ensure to 
carry out grounding work. 

Otherwise, it may lead to an electric leak and/or electric 
shock. 

 

Do not operate the pump when its action or parts 
are abnormal. 

Otherwise, it may lead to injury, failures and/or various 
accidents. 

Wiring must be performed reliably according to the 
connection diagram within the terminal box and 
the instruction manual. 

Incorrect wiring may cause fire, electric shock and other 
accidents.
