Safety
Identify all safety and tag-out procedures
Before setting into operation read and observe the contents of the operating
instructions and the safety advisories.
Warning and information stickers provide important information for safe operation. They may
not be removed. Observation of these stickers provides for your safety.
Before start up of operations you should familiarise yourself with all facilities and operating
options. Pump may only be set in operation if the suction and pressure pipes are connected so
that access to the pumping chamber is not possible. Before pump is set in operation, ensure
that access to the rotating parts (the drive shaft) is not possible.
The drive shaft must be completely covered by a coupling guard.
Before setting into operation, ensure that the discharge pipe is not completely closed off.
Otherwise the pump shaft seals or even the pump housing or the pipelines may be damaged
or destroyed by the resulting high pressure.
Before starting maintenance and repair work, turn off the drive and ensure that the pump
cannot be switched on by mistake.
Use the eye bolts on the pumps only for lifting the pump without mounted parts
(for example motor)!
