1. General Information and Safety
Instructions
The products supplied by SPP Pumps Ltd. have
been designed with safety in mind. Where hazards
cannot be eliminated, the risk has been minimised
by the use of guards and other design features.
Some hazards cannot be guarded against and the
instructions below MUST BE COMPLIED WITH for
safe operation. These instructions cannot cover all
circumstances: YOU are responsible for using safe
working practices at all times.
1.1 SPP Pumps Ltd. products are designed for
installation in designated areas, which are to
be kept clean and free of obstructions that
may restrict safe access to the controls and
maintenance access points.
A pump nameplate is fitted to each unit and
must not be removed. Loss of this plate
could make identification impossible. This in
turn could affect safety and cause difficulty in
obtaining spare parts. Should accidental loss
or damage occur, contact SPP Pumps Ltd.
immediately.
1.2 Access to the equipment should be restricted
to the personnel responsible for installation,
operation and maintenance and they must be
trained, adequately qualified and supplied with
the appropriate tools for their respective tasks.
1.3 SPP Pumps Ltd. requires that all personnel
that are responsible for installation, operation
or maintenance of the equipment, have
access to and study the product instruction
manual BEFORE any work is done and that
they will comply with all local and industry
based safety instructions and regulations.
1.4 Ear defenders should be worn where the
specified equipment noise level exceeds
locally defined safe levels. Safety glasses or
goggles should be worn where working with
pressurised
systems and hazardous
substances. Other personal protection
equipment must be worn where local rules
apply.
1.5 Do NOT wear loose or frayed clothing or
jewellery that could catch on the controls or
become trapped in the equipment.
1.6 Check and confirm that the manual is the
relevant copy by comparing the serial number
on the identification plate with that on the
manual.
