4.3 Position the system

WARNING: HEAVY OBJECT
Risk of injury and damage to the equipment. Use correct lifting equipment to move
the dry pumping system. Failure to do so can cause injury to people and damage to
the equipment.
WARNING: TRANSPORTATION SAFETY
Risk of injury or damage to equipment. Do not exceed the topple angle of 10° when
you move the pump. Wheel the system on its castors to move it to the operating
position. The system should only be wheeled for short distances over flat surfaces. If
the floor surface is uneven or has obstacles, lift the system with the correct lifting
equipment. If lifting the system is impractical, or there are other site difficulties,
contact us for advice.
WARNING: PAIRED SLINGS
Risk of injury or damage to equipment. Make sure that the maximum angle between
45 o MAX
paired slings used to lift the system is 45°. Rotation of the eye bolts under load must
be prevented.
Install the system on a firm, non‑combustible, level surface, capable of supporting pump
mass, to make sure that it works correctly and the system is not damaged.
Make the pump level to a maximum of 3° in all directions, measured at the pump inlet.
The castors are intended only to aid the movement of the system to the final operating
position. The force to push a pump on castors varies because of the surface finish,
cleanliness of the floor and any slopes or inclination. The user must do a risk assessment
of the location to make sure that the system is moved safely. Obey all local and national
manual handling guidelines when you move the system.
1. Give a firm, level platform, which is strong enough to support the weight of the
pump and ancillary equipment.
