1.3 Staff qualification and training
The staff deployed for assembly, operating, maintenance
and inspection tasks must show that they have the
appropriate qualifications for such work. The field of
responsibility, competence and supervision of the staff
must be stipulated exactly by the plant operator.
1.4 Risks in the event of non-compliance
with the safety information
Non-compliance with the safety information can
endanger persons and also the plant and the
environment. Non-compliance with the safety information
can lead to the loss of claims for damages of any kind.
For example, non-compliance may result in the

– failure of important functions in the plant
– failure of prescribed methods for servicing
and maintenance
- danger to persons through electrical and mechanical
causes
1.5 Safety-conscious work

and operating instructions, the existing national regu-
lations for the prevention of accidents, as well as any
internal working, operating and safety regulations
stipulated by the plant operator must be observed.
1.6 Safety information
for the plant operator/operating personnel
Any risks from electric power must be eliminated
(For details see, for example, the regulations published
by NIN (CENELEC), the I.E.E. and local energy supplièrs).

The use of other parts can cancel any liability for the
resultant consequences.
1.9 Improper operating methods
The operating reliability of the pumps supplied is only
guaranteed with appropriate application of the section
«Intended application» of the Installation and Operating

When transporting, care has to be taken with
the load carrying vehicle (lift truck, crane) and
to ensure that the equipment stands steady.
The transportation dimensions and weights
are to be found in the technical data.
General accident prevention regulations must
