SAFETY REGULATIONS
CAUTION: All installation and maintenance operations must be carried out by qualified
personnel with circuit not under pressure and without power supply (connector
disconnected).
ARAG IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM INSTALLATION BY
UNSKILLED PERSONNEL. ANY SYSTEM DAMAGE CAUSED BY A WRONG INSTALLATION
AND/OR CONNECTION AUTOMATICALLY VOIDS THE WARRANTY.
CARRYING OUT INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS WITHOUT
DISCONNECTING THE VALVE FROM ITS POWER SUPPLY MAY CAUSE SEVERE INJURY.
Do not operate the valve with no load for long periods of time, as this might damage the
components inside the valve.
ARAG declines any responsibility for direct or indirect damage deriving from the type of
fluids used in the system.
The use of such substances is made under the full responsibility of the operator, who
therefore must follow the safety measures indicated by the fluid manufacturer on the
package and wear suitable personal safety equipment (gloves, coverall, boots, helmet,
etc.) in compliance with the law provisions.
ARAG may not in any way be held responsible for accidents or damage to persons,
animals or things caused by improper, unprotected, or non-recommended use of the
products utilized.
