Introduction

The key prerequisite for safe handling and trouble-
free operation of the pump is knowledge of the basic
safety instructions and industrial safety regulations.
The operating instructions must be read, under-
stood and observed by all persons responsible for
operation or maintenance of the pump. For this rea-
son, they must always be kept at the place where
the pump is used. The local safety and accident pre-
vention regulations and the "Safety" chapter must
be strictly observed.
