DANGER! Risk of death!
To reduce risks during lifting and handling operations, be sure to operate in security
conditions checking that equipments are complying with safety rules and suitable for
the weight, dimensions and shape of the pump. Handle the pump with protective
gloves avoiding hand injuries.
Only suitable lifting gear and load carrying equipment with valid test certificates and ade-
quate lifting capacity for the loads involved (such as belts/wire ropes/slings) should be
used for lifting & transporting the product. If chains are used, they should be secured
against slipping along with protective cover to prevent damage to the product, paint and/
or injury to personnel.
Before handling and lifting check:
• Weight of the pump (reported on the plate)
• The lifting hook position
CAUTION! Risk of damage to the pump! Risk of falling!
Always take the weight and centre of gravity into consideration.
Never use the motor eye bolts when slinging assembled pump sets.
Never put down or pick up the product when it is not secured.
