1.1. Safety
All work must be carried out in
compliance with the relevant health and
safety regulations. In Germany these are
the accident prevention regulations
according to BGV C22. These can be
viewed on the website of the construc-

("Berufsgenossenschaft der Bauwi //
www.bgbau-medien.de); the earthworks,
tank installation and excavation work
must be carried out according to DIN
18300, DIN 4124, EN 1610 and the
DWA-A 139 and ATV-DVWK-A 127
standards.

Furthermor e, the relevant regulations
and standards must be taken into
account during installation, assembly,
maintenance, repair, etc. Appropriate
instructions are given in the
corresponding sections of these
instructions.
The entire system must be shut down (if
electrical installations are mounted) and
secured against unauthorised switching
on before carrying out any work on the
system or system parts.
The tank cover must be kept closed at all
times, except when work is being carried
out in the tank, otherwise there is a very-
high accident risk.
Any transport packagings of openings
are neither accessible nor child-safe and
must be replaced with suitable covers or
pipe connections immediately after
delivery.
ACO offers a comprehensive range of
accessory parts, which are all
coordinated with each other and can be
combined to form complete systems.
The list of optional accessory parts can
be found online at www.rain4me.aco.
Use of other accessory parts can result
in impairment of the system's functional
capability and cancels liability for any
resulting damage.
