Silicosis/Respiratory Warnings

WARNING

SILICOSIS WARNING

Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials with silica in their composition may give off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including silicosis. In addition, California and some other authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such materials, always follow the respiratory precautions mentioned above.

WARNING

RESPIRATORY HAZARDS

Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular process and/or material being cut or the composition of the tool being used, review the material safety data sheet and/or consult your employer, the material manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on hazardous materials. California and some other authorities, for instance, have published lists of substances known to cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful effects.

Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where possible. In this regard use good work practices and follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade associations. Water should be used for dust suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the materials being used.

Both models are equipped with a high-performance centrifugal pump, ensuring efficient water transfer and quick operation. They are capable of moving large volumes of water, making them suitable for dewatering, irrigation, and other water management tasks.

One of the standout features of the WM70SH series is their impressive maximum flow rate. The pumps can deliver up to 2,000 gallons per minute, significantly reducing the time required for water removal in flooded areas or construction sites. This efficiency is crucial in maintaining project timelines and ensuring safety in work environments.

Durability is another key characteristic of these models. The WM70SH5C and WM70SH8C are built with heavy-duty materials, including a cast iron pump housing and aluminum alloy components, which resist corrosion and ensure a long operational lifespan. Additionally, their rugged construction allows them to withstand harsh working conditions, making them reliable even in the toughest environments.

Ease of use and maintenance is also a priority in the design of these pumps. The WM70SH series features an easy-access maintenance panel that simplifies routine checks and service procedures. The equipped oil alert system helps prevent engine damage by shutting down the engine if the oil level is too low, providing peace of mind for operators.

Both models are designed for portability, with integrated handles and a lightweight frame that facilitate easy transportation. This mobility makes the WM70SH series ideal for contractors who need to move equipment frequently from one job site to another.

In summary, the Multiquip WM70SH5C and WM70SH8C water pumps stand out in the market for their powerful performance, robust construction, and ease of use. They are designed to deliver efficiency, reliability, and durability, making them an excellent choice for any water pumping requirements in construction and industrial applications. With features catering to the demands of heavy-duty tasks, these pumps enhance productivity while ensuring operational safety.
