ULTRA V SERIES OM-06014
PAGE A - 2 SAFETY
Use lifting and moving equipment in
good repair and with adequate capacity
to prevent injuries to personnel or dam­
age to equipment. Suction and dis­
charge hoses and piping must be re­
moved from the pump before lifting.
Do not install a suction check valve in
the first stage of the VS Series pump
model. Installing a suction check valve
in the first stage of the VS Series pump
model can cause over‐pressurization of
the first stage pump casing, resulting in
possible explosion of the pump and se­
rious injury or death to presonnel.
Do not attempt to disengage any part of
an overheated pump unit. Vapor pres­
sure within the pump casing can eject
these parts with great force when they
are disengaged. Allow the pump to
completely cool before servicing it.
Pumps and related equipment must be in­
stalled and operated according to all na­
tional, local and industry standards.
