Note the safety notes in Chapter 6, Assembly and connection,
and Chapter 7, Operation
The pump is constructed according to the generally accepted rules
of the technology, and occupational health and safety and
accident prevention provisions. Hazardous situations with the
possibility of injuries to the user or other persons, or damage to
the pump or other property, may, however, occur during use of the
device.
The pump must be operated only in technically sound condition
and for its intended purpose, with due regard for safety and
potential hazards and in accordance with this operating and
installation manual.
Ensure all persons working with the pump have been appropriately
trained and familiarised with its use, or are qualified personnel.
This applies particularly to the assembly, connection and
maintenance of the equipment.
Ensure that relevant personnel have read and understood this
operating and installation manual, particularly the chapter on
safety.
Accident prevention and safety rules must be observed at all times
while working on or using the pump.
When pumping a hazardous medium, always observe the safety
rules for the medium in question.
Always comply with instruction signs placed on the pump, such as
flow direction arrows and the type plate, and keep these in a
clearly legible condition.
All replacement parts must be stored and disposed of in
accordance with the precautions required under environmental
protection provisions. It is important to comply with both national
and international regulations. This applies particularly to parts that
have been contaminated with toxic materials.
Dispose of all packaging in an environmentally appropriate
manner. The packaging materials are recyclable.
Ensure that the pump is disposed of in an environmentally
appropriate manner at the end of its useful life. Use
appropriate waste collection systems for the disposal of end-
of-life equipment. Used pumps contain valuable recyclable
materials.
