Information.

INCORRECT INSTALLATION, OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF
EQUIPMENT MAY CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH
AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE AND MAY INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY.

THIS INFORMATION MUST BE READ FULLY BEFORE BEGINNING
INSTALLATION, OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE AND MUST BE KEPT
WITH THE PUMP. ALL INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE MUST BE
UNDERTAKEN BY SUITABLY TRAINED OR QUALIFIED PERSONS ONLY.










DANGER

DO NOT OPERATE PUMP IF :

-

The front cover is not installed correctly.

-

Any guards are missing or incorrectly installed.

-

The suction or discharge piping is not connected.

DO NOT place fingers, etc. into the pumping chamber or its connection ports
or into any part of the gearbox if there is ANY possibility of the pump shafts
being rotated. Severe injury will occur.

DO NOT exceed the pumps rated pressure, speed, and temperature, or
change the system/duty parameters from those for which the pump was
originally supplied, without confirming its suitability for the new duty. Running
the pump outside of its operating envelope can cause mechanical contact in
the pump head, excessive heat and can represent a serious risk to health and
safety.

Installation and operation of the pump must always comply with health and
safety regulations.

A device must be incorporated into the pump, system, or drive to prevent the
pump exceeding its stated duty pressure. It must be suitable for both
directions of pump rotation where applicable. Do not allow pump to operate
with a closed/blocked discharge unless a pressure relief device is
incorporated. If an integral relief valve is incorporated into the pump, do not
allow re-circulation through the relief valve for extended periods, (refer to
section 3.8).
