RECYCLING
Many components of SANDPIPER
Metallic AODD pumps are made of
recyclable materials (see chart on
page 12 for material specifications).
We encourage pump users to recycle
worn out parts and pumps whenever
possible, after any hazardous pumped
fluids are thoroughly flushed.
Take action to prevent static sparking.
Fire or explosion can result, especially
when handling flammable liquids. The
pump, piping, valves, containers or other
miscellaneous equipment must be grouded.
This unit is supplied with a natural earth ground cable. This cable is 2
meters in length and permanently connected through a stud at one end to
the pump center casting. The other end is free to connect to the nearest
available suitable point to provide a natural earth ground. This must be done
to reducethe risk of electro-static sparking.

pump, and be discharged
into the atmosphere. If
pumping a product which is hazardous or toxic,
the air exhaust must be piped to an appropriate
area for safe disposition.

This pump is pressurized
internally with air pressure
during operation. Always
make certain that all bolting
is in good condition and
that all of the correct
bolting is reinstalled during assembly.
WARNING
When used for toxic or
aggressive fluids, the pump
should always be flushed
clean prior to disassembly.
WARNING
Before doing any main-
tenance on the pump, be
cer tain all pressure is
completely vented from the
pump, suction, discharge,
piping, and all other openings and connections.
Be certain the air supply is locked out or made
non-operational, so that it cannot be started
while work is being done on the pump. Be certain
that approved eye protection and protective
clothing are worn all times in the vicinity of the
