General Safety

Information

1.Read the instruction manual included with the product carefully. Be thor- oughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the equipment.

2.Know the pump application, limita- tions and potential hazards.

Do not use to pump flammable or explo-

sive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in explosive atmospheres. Pump should only be used with liquids compatible with pump com- ponent materials. Failure to follow this warning can result in personal injury and/or property damage.

Disconnect power and release all pres-

sure from the system before attempting to install, service, relocate or perform any maintenance. Lock the power disconnect in the open position. Tag the power dis- connect to prevent unexpected applica- tion of power.

Install a screen around the inlet

pipe to prevent entrapment of swimmers.

3.Drain all liquids from the system before servicing.

4.Secure the discharge line before starting the pump. An unsecured dis- charge line will whip and possibly cause personal injury and/or property damage.

5.Check hoses for weak or worn condi- tion before each use. Make certain all connections are secure.

6.Periodically inspect pump and system components. Perform routine main- tenance as required (See Maintenance).

7.Personal Safety:

replace all unused tools and equipment.

c.Keep visitors at a safe distance from work area.

d.Make the workshop child proof: use padlocks, master switches and remove starter keys.

8.Do not pump chemicals or corrosive liquids. Pumping these liquids shortens the life of the pumps seals and moving parts and will void the warranty.
