Section 1: Safety Precautions
Hale Products, Inc., Nov. 2005, Rev-A
CAUTION !
ALL FASTENERS ON THE HALE PUMP AND GEARBOX ASSEMBLY HAVE
BEEN SELECTED FOR THEIR APPLICATION. HALE PRODUCTS DOES NOT
RECOMMEND REPLACING FASTENERS WITH ANYTHING OTHER THAN
HALE PART NUMBERS PROVIDED. REPLACING WITH A WEAKER ALTER-
NATIVE POSES A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK.
ALL FASTENERS MUST BE INSTALLED WITH A LOCKING ANAEROBIC
ADHESIVE/SEALANT, SUCH AS LOCTITE
®
#242 OR EQUIVALENT.
❑
Installation should be performed by a trained and qualified installer, such
as your authorized Hale representative. Be sure the installer has suffi-
cient knowledge, experience and the proper tools before attempting any
installation.
WARNING !
THE HALE PUMP AND GEARBOX ASSEMBLY CAN BE HEAVY AND BULKY.
ADDING ACCESSORIES TO THE SYSTEM ALSO INCREASES THE WEIGHT.
CHECK YOUR BILL OF LADING FOR THE APPROXIMATE WEIGHT.
BE CERTAIN TO USE PROPER LIFTING SUPPORT DEVICES (I.E., OVER-
HEAD CRANE, JACKS, CHAINS, STRAPS, ETC.) CAPABLE OF HANDLING
THE LOAD WHEN REMOVING OR INSTALLING THE HALE PUMP AND GEAR-
BOX ASSEMBLY.
❑
The installer is responsible for observing all instructions and safety pre-
cautions in his or her daily routine as dictated by regional safety ordi-
nances or departmental procedures.
❑
DO NOT permanently remove or alter any protective feature, guard or
insulating devices, or attempt to operate the system when these guards
are removed.
Doing so voids the Hale pump warranty. Also see heading “Express
Warranty” on page 125.
❑
Any of the above could affect system capacity and/or safe operation of
the system and is a serious safety violation which could cause personal
injury or could affect safe operation of the pump.
