•
Ensure that the operating personnel are regularly instructed in all applicable matters of work
safety and environmental protection.
•
Make sure that the operating personnel has read and observes the operation manual.
•
Make sure that the warning and notice signs are attached and legible.
•
Observe all warning and notice signs attached to the submersible motor pump.

•
Make sure that the submersible motor pump is not put into operation without the safety

•
Have defects on the submersible motor pump repaired immediately.
To maintain the Safety and Function,
•
Defective components must be replaced exclusively by original replacement parts with identical

•
All safety equipment, fastenings as well as electrical connections and lines must be inspected
regularly for perfect condition.
•
Defects on the submersible motor pump must be repaired immediately.
•
Submersible motor pump and associated peripherals must not be modified or converted,
otherwise the operation manual will expire and the declaration of conformity will be invalidated.
Before working on electrical equipment the following points are to be observed:
•
Completely disconnect the electric motor and control circuits from all current and voltage.
•
Secure electric motor against restarting.
•
Verify zero voltage with appropriate measuring device.
•
Ground and short circuit the electric motor.
•
Cover or cordon off live parts.
•

If the work is not performed by Eisele
•
Ensure that all work is performed and accepted exclusively by persons who have been trained,
instructed or authorised by Eisele or by specialists.
•
Make sure that the trained specialist issues a written confirmation or marks the machine with
his test mark.
Danger due to potentially explosive, toxic and combustible atmospheres
It is possible that toxic, combustible and potentially explosive gases escape from the pump medium.
The following points are therefore to be observed without fail:
•
Make sure that installation and maintenance work is performed exclusively by trained
specialists. The Industrial Safety Regulations (BetrSichV) as well as the safety and
maintenance instructions in the operation manual are thereby to be strictly observed.
•
Make sure that there is no potentially explosive atmosphere present during operation as well
as installation and maintenance work on tank openings and couplings.
•
Have work that influences the explosion protection performed exclusively by trained specialists.
