7.7 Safety measures in normal operation

Operate the machine only if all protective devices are functioning. Before switching
the machine on make sure that no one can be endangered when the machine starts.
At least once per shift inspect the machine for damage and for proper functioning
of the safety devices.

7.8 Protective devices

All protective devices must be attached correctly and functioning before every start-
up. Protective devices may be removed only after the machine has stopped and
protection measures against restarting the machine have been taken.

After spare parts have been fitted, protective devices must be attached according to
the operating organisation’s regulations.

If contact with hot or cold machine parts could be dangerous, protection must be
provided for the pump user.

7.9 Dangers due to hazardous pumped
material

If hazardous material is to be pumped, the appropriate regulations must be observed.

7.10 Dangers due to electrical energy

Work on the electrical supply must be performed only by an electrician.

Check the electrical equipment of the machine regularly. Rectify
loose connections and scorched cables immediately.

Keep the control cabinet locked closed or secured with a tool. Access is allowed only
to authorised personnel.

If work on parts conducting voltage must be done, call in a second person to switch
off the mains power if necessary.

Electrical connection of the pump must be made according to local regulations, by
skilled personnel only.
