WARNING
• The pressure unloader/regulation valve is set either by the pump Manufacturer or by that of the machine in
which the pump is integrated. Never try and adjust the pressure unloader/regulation valve to alter its setting:
only adjust this by means of the knob (15).
WARNING
• The pump must not be run by itself. It is only meant to be integrated in a machine.
• The pump must only be integrated in machines used for the following purposes:
- pumping of water at high pressure in washing machines (high pressure cleaners);
- pumping water for non-edible use.
• The pump must not be integrated in machines for pumping:
- unfiltered water or with impurities;
- detergents, paints and chemical substances, both pure and in aqueous solution;
- seawater or water with high salt concentration;
- fuels and lubricants of all kinds and types;
- inflammable liquids or liquefied gases;
- edible liquids;
- solvents and thinners of all kinds and types;
- water with temperatures above 60 °C/140 °F or below 5 °C/41 °F;
- liquids containing granules or solid parts in suspension.
• The pump must not be integrated in machines designed to wash: people, animals, energized electrical apparatus,
delicate objects, the pump itself or the machine in which it is integrated.
• The pump is not suitable for being integrated in machines designed to operate in environments with special
conditions such as, for example, corrosive or explosive atmospheres.
• For integration in machines designed to operate on board vehicles, ships or planes, contact the Manufacturer's
Technical After-Sales Service, inasmuch as additional requirements may be necessary.
All other uses are to be deemed incorrect.
The Manufacturer disclaims all liability for any damage deriving from incorrect or erroneous uses.
WARNING
• The pump cannot be operated unless the machine in which it is integrated conforms to the safety
requirements laid down by European directives. Such conformity is indicated by
the declaration of conformity of the Manufacturer of the machine in which the pump is integrated.
• Before starting the pump, carefully read the instructions in this manual and in the manual of the machine in
which the pump is integrated. In particular, make sure you have correctly understood how the pump and the
machine in which it is integrated work as regards liquid on/off operations.
• Perform the preliminary operations indicated by the Manufacturer of the machine in which the pump is
integrated.
• Make sure all deliveries are off or connected to accessories that have been turned off (e.g., closed spray gun).
• Make sure that the moving parts of the pump are suitably protected and that they are not accessible to
unauthorised persons.
• Do not use the pump (and therefore the machine in which it is integrated) in the event of:
- the safety devices being damaged;
- its having suffered heavy knocks;
- evident oil leaks;
- evident leaks of pumped liquid.
In such cases, have the pump and the machine in which it is integrated checked by a Skilled Technician.
• Have a Skilled Technician perform the inspections required by special maintenance.
