Safety Information
The pump is designed and manufactured solely
for the purpose of pumping water for fire
fighting, tank filling or similar activities. Under
no circumstances should it be used for pumping
flammable or corrosive liquids such as petrol or
chemical solutions.
Before using the pump carefully read and
ensure you understand the contents of this
manual. Ensure that you are familiar with the
starting, operating and stopping procedures.
Before using the pump ensure all operators
read and follow the safety warning carried on
the machine. Refer below for the wording of this
warning.
Never allow an inadequately trained person to
operate the pump
Do not operate the pump whilst wearing loose
clothing, unrestrained long hair, jewellery or
anything which could become entangled in
rotating components or limit your vision.
Always operate the pump in a well ventilated
and well lit area that is free from flammable or
other materials that may interfere with its safe
operation. Never operate in an enclosed area
as engine exhaust fumes contain carbon
monoxide, an odourless tasteless asphyxiant,
which could cause unconsciousness or death.
Always operate on firm and level ground.
Uneven or sloping terrain could lead to the
pump overturning and spilling fuel.
Never leave the pump unattended while the
engine is running.
Stop the engine before doing any maintenance
work on the pump.
Avoid contact with hot engine parts, which
could cause serious burns.
Keep bystanders, children and animals away
from the pump whilst operating.
Before operating the pump read the following safety instructions.
Failure to comply with these warnings may result in serious injury or death.
Whilst your Pump has been designed and manufactured to incorporate all necessary
safety features it is essential that any person who operates or works on the machine is
aware of the safety precautions that should be exercised.
