Warning
Using with dangerous liquids or atmosphere
When transferring dangerous liquid using this pump, or using in potentially explosive atmospheres (only
explosion-proof type), observe the equipment standards set forth by law and make sure to perform daily
inspection to prevent liquid leakage. If the pump is operated under the abnormal conditions such as liquid
leakage, it may cause a severe accident, such as a physical injury, an explosion, or fire. Always comply
with instructions of the supplier or manufacturer of liquids.
Prohibited use of a damaged or modified pump
Using a damaged or modified pump may cause a physical injury, electric shock, or product failure. Such
usage will not be covered by our warranty.
Cautions on transporting and lifting the pump
Use the hoist bolts when lifting a pump. If a hoist bolt is not available, use a belt sling to lift the pump with
careful attention to the weight balance. Only a qualified person should perform this with a strong enough
sling. The lightest pump weighs approximately a minimum of 50lbs (23kg). Do not hand carry the pump as
much as possible, as it may cause an accident.
Prohibited work with the power ON
Do not perform inspection or disassembly of the pump or motor while the power is ON. Rotating parts can
cause physical injury. You can also be subject to electric shock. In addition to confirming the main power
is OFF, check the hand switch of the pump as an additional safety measure before performing any work.
Connection of a ground wire
Using the motor without a ground wire connected may cause an electric shock. A qualified person must
ground it according to the electric equipment technical standards and wiring regulations.
Protection of a power cord
Pulling, tucking, or damaging a power cord or motor lead wire may damage the cable, causing fire or an
electric shock. Install the terminal box cover in the designated position after wiring.
Installation of Ground Fault Interrupter (GFI)
If a ground-fault interrupter is not installed when using the pump, an electric shock may occur. Install a
ground-fault interrupter or overcurrent protective device to prevent electric accidents or motor damage.
Cautions on removing the pump
When removing the pump from pipes, close the suction and discharge pipe valves to ensure no spillage
occurs. Directly touching chemical liquid may be hazardous, and may cause severe injuries. Wear
protective equipment before starting work.
