7.4.2 Start the pump with serial control

CAUTION:
Do not operate the pump with its rotor exposed. Before operating the pump it must
first be connected to the vacuum system. If the pump is operated with its rotor
exposed, the pump rotor can cause injury as it rotates at very high speeds and the
rotating blades might not be visible.
WARNING:
Do not move the pump whilst it is running. The gyroscopic forces generated by this
movement can cause excessive use of the back-up bearing and may result in
catastrophic failure of the pump.
CAUTION:
When power is restored following a power cut, the pump will restart automatically.
The pump must remain connected to the vacuum system to prevent risk of injury.
In serial control the pump will accelerate to full operating speed when started.
