WARNING
•
Damaged or deteriorated tools are very dangerous. Use qualified and suitable
tools only.
•
Use of protectors: When disassembling, assembling, and conducting maintenance
or when handling a dangerous type of liquid or a liquid of unknown property, be sure
to wear safety gloves, a helmet, and protective shoes. In addition, when handling
wet-end parts, always wear protective goggles, masks, etc.
•
To prevent death or injury from a falling pump, make sure the rope or chain used
for lifting the pump is not accidentally cut or disconnected during installation. Make
sure the rope or the chain used to lift the pump has sufficient strength in relation to
the pump load. Also, be sure not to stand underneath a lifted or suspended pump.
•
When fixing the pump with rope or chain, be sure to use special bolts (or rings) for
lifting. Never use any other points for lifting the pump.
•
Always turn off the power supply prior to servicing the pump. Make special pro-
visions so that no other operator mistakenly turns on the power supply while some-
one is working on the pump. In a noisy or poor visibity environment, display a sign
near the power supply switch to notify others that someone is "WORKING" on the
pump. Power supply mistakenly turned on during maintenance may lead to personal
injury. Each operator must be especially careful of power supply operation.
•
To ensure greater safety, check and make sure that there is no one near the
pump when switching on the power supply. The pump is not equipped with an
ON/OFF switch. Connecting the power cable supplies the power to the pump and
starts the operation.
•
Run the pump at the specified power supply voltage on the nameplate only.
Otherwise, fire or electric shock may result.
•
If the pump operation is stopped due to a power failure or closure of discharge
wire, turn off the power switch at once. After normal conditions return, turn the
switch on again.
•
Do not use the pump for anything that it is not designed to do. User’s failure to
observe this instruction exempts IWAKI from any responsibility for personal injury or
damage to the equipment or facility caused by the pump’s misuse.
•
When handling a toxic or odorant liquid, ventilate the working area well. In addi-
tion, the operator must wear protector gear (such as a safety mask, safety goggles,
and protective gloves).
