! WARNING
Death or serious personal injury might occur if proper operating procedures
are not followed. The pump operator, as well as individuals connecting
supply or discharge hoses to the apparatus must be familiar with these
pump operating instructions as well as other operating instructions and
manuals for the apparatus, water hydraulics and component limitation.
!
WARNING
Scalding Water Hazard. May result in serious burns.
When operating the pump, be sure to open at least one discharge valve
slightly to prevent the pump from overheating. If the pump runs for a few
minutes completely closed, it may heat the water enough to scald someone
when the valve is opened. Overheating can damage the packing, seals
and other pump parts. If the apparatus builder has installed a by-pass sys-
tem or other provision designed to prevent overheating, opening a dis-
charge valve may be unnecessary.

Before proceeding with the installation of the Eclipse ES, read the following
instructions carefully. Check the appropriate dimensional drawings in the Engi-
neering Manual as needed.
CAUTION
Operating Speed Limit.
May cause damage to the pump and/or air compressor.
The Eclipse compressor has a maximum operating speed of 8950 RPM.
Do not allow the compressor to run beyond 8950 RPM.
Compressor speed can be calculated by (Engine Speed) x (Pump Trans-
mission Ratio) x 2.5.
! WARNING
Compressed Air Pressure Hazard. May result in personal injury.
Compressed air can be dangerous. Make sure the pressure is allowed to
bleed down to atmospheric pressure prior to opening any connections or
valves.
!
WARNING
Pressure Hazard. May result in personal injury.
Prior to connection or removal of hoses, caps or other closures with pump
intake or pump discharge connections, relieve pressure by opening drains
or bleeder valves. Bleeder valves should also be used while filling a hose
connected to an intake with water.
