Safety

Improper Use of Fittings Hazard

•
Do not operate the pump with improperly connected, sized, worn or loose fittings, pipes or hoses. Operating
the pump under these conditions could result in personal injury and property damage.
•
Ensure all fittings, pipes and hoses are properly rated for the maximum pressure rating and flow of the
pump.
•
Check all fittings and pipes for cracks or damaged threads.
•
Check all hoses for cuts, wear, leaks, kinks or collapse before each use.
•
Ensure all connections are tight and secure.
•
Use PTFE thread tape or pipe thread sealant (sparingly) to reconnect plumbing.
•
Do not wrap tape beyond the last thread, this will prevent tape from becoming lodged in the pump or
accessories.
•
Apply proper sealants to assure secure fit or easy dis-assembly when servicing.

Frozen Liquid Hazard

•
Do not operate the pump with frozen liquid. Operating the pump under this condition could over pressurize
and jettison the manifold from the crankcase causing personal injury and property damage.
•
Store pump or pumping system in an environmentally controlled room protected from freezing temperatures.

Cleaning Pump Hazard

•

Operating the pump under these conditions could result in personal injury and property damage.
•
Do not operate the pump faster than the maximum recommended RPM.
•
Do not operate the pump at pressures higher than the maximum recommended pressure.
•
Do not operate the pump at temperatures higher than the maximum recommended temperatures.
•
Do not use accessories that are not compatible or rated for the pump.

Height Hazard

•
Do not store or fit this pump at a height higher than 90cm from level (hip height). Always ensure that the
footing of the pump is properly secured. Pump may fall and cause injury if not secured properly from a high
height.
