Safety General notes Always keep the operating and maintenance instructions close by the machine. If problems cannot be solved with reference to the operating and maintenance instructions, please contact the manufacturer. Observe the following points in addition to these operating and maintenance instructions: •...
• List item Dangers that can be caused by the machine seepex machines are built in accordance with the state of the art. Nevertheless, there is a residual risk, because the machine works with: • Mechanical movements that pose a danger •...
Avoid/limit risks by the use of collective technical protective equipment or by organisational measures at work. Safety and protective devices Prior to start-up, bolt seepex machines onto a concrete foundation so as to ensure stability. Starting and stopping devices must be clearly recognisable. Take appropriate measures to avoid defects.
Safety Designated use • Only use seepex machines if they are in perfect condition and in compliance with the oper- ating and maintenance instructions. • Do not start up the machine unless the system in which the machine is installed is in accor- dance with the provisions of the applicable guidelines and statutory regulations.
