3.3 Safety of Operation (continued)
2. That pump intake filters are perfectly clean;
we advise to duse a device that indicates the filters
clogging level.
3. That electrical parts are adequately protected an in
perfect conditions.
4. That high pressure hoses do not show apparent signs
of abrasion, and that fittings are in perfect shape.
Any anamoly or reasonable doubt that may arise before or
during operation must be promptly reported and verified by
competent personnel. In these cases, pressure must be
immediately released and the high pressure unit stopped.
3.4 General Procedures For Using Nozzles
1. The Operator must always place his own and other
worker’s safety before any other interest; his actions
should always be governed by good sense and
responsibility.
2. The Operator must always wear a helmet with a
protective visor, waterproof clothing, and appropriate
boots capable of guaranteeing grip on wet pavement.
Note: appropriate clothing will effectively protect against
water spray, but it may not offer adequate protecttion
against the direct impact of water jets or sprays from a
close distance. Some circumstances may require further
protection.
3. We advise to employ a team of at least two Operators,
able to provide mutual and immediate assistance if
needed, and to rotate their duties in case of long and
heavy work.
4. Access to the work area that is within the water jets’
range must be absolutely forbidden; the area must be
free of objects that may be unintentionally hit by the
pressurized jet, causing damage or dangerous
situations.
5. The water jet must only and always be directed towards
the work area, even during testing or preliminary
inspections.
6. The Operator must always pay attention to the trajecto-
ry of the debris removed by the water jet. If necessary,
adequate side guards must be provided by the
Operator in order to protect anything that may be acci-
entally exposed.
7. For no reason must the Operator be distracted during
operation. The personnel that needs to access the
working area must wait for the Operator to suspend his
work, and then immediately make his presence known.
8. For safety reasons, it is important that each member of
the team is perfectly aware of the intentions and actions
of other team members in order to avoid dangerous
misunderstandings.
9. The high pressure unit must not be started and
brought up to pressure unless each member of the
team is in his designated position, and the Operator
has already directed the nozzle towards the work area.
3.5 Safety During Unit Maintenance
1. The maintenance of the high pressure unit must be
done within the time intervals indicated by the
Manufacturer, who is responsible for the entire unit’s
compliance with the norms in force.
2. Maintenance must always be carried out by special-
ized and authorized personnel.
3. Assembly and disassembly of the pump and its various
components must be performed exclusively by author-
ized personnel, using appropriate tools in order to
avoid damage to components and connections.
4. To guarantee total reliability and safety, always use
original spare parts.
