2 Safety
Overview
This section describes what you have to consider for your own
safety. Read this important section attentively and follow the
instructions!
2.1
Operator notes
2.1.1
Unpacking the pump
In order to avoid transport damage, all of our pumps are
professionally packed when they leave our warehouse.
If, after carefully unpacking and closely reviewing the shipment,
you nevertheless detect damage, please immediately inform the
transporter (railway, post office, freight forwarder, shipping
company). Please file your damage claim with them. The
transport risk is assumed by the customer as soon as the
shipment leaves our warehouse.
2.1.2
Storing the pump
If you do not use the pump straight away, correct storage
conditions are just as important as careful installation and
appropriate maintenance in order to ensure smooth subsequent
operation. The pump should be protected against cold, moisture
and dust, and should also be shielded against mechanical
impacts.
Trained personnel are required for proper installation and
maintenance.
2.2
Safety instructions in the operating manual
Read all safety instructions!
The operating manual contains all the basic information required
for the set-up, operation, and maintenance of the pump. The
installer as well as the technical personnel or operator
responsible for the pump must therefore read this operating
manual before installing and starting the pump. The operating
manual must always be available at the site where the pump/
system is used.
The general safety instructions presented in this section as well
as the specific safety instructions in later sections must be
followed.
