Safety Notes
The Operating Instructions include general instructions which
must be followed when a pump/pump unit is installed, opera-
ted or serviced. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary for the fit-
ter and the specialist/owners to read the Operating Instructions
before a unit is installed and commissioned. The Operating In-
structions must always be available on the site where the ma-
chine/system is erected.
All general safety instructions contained in this main Safety
chapter have to be observed as well as all special safety in-
structions given in other main chapters.

al whose ignoration may result in personal injury are marked
