INTRODUCTION
The policy of Atlas Copco is to provide the users of
their equipment with safe, reliable and efficient

expected to operate,
- applicable rules, codes and regulations,
- the expected useful product life, assuming proper
service and maintenance,
- providing the manual with up-to-date
information.
Before handling any product, take time to read the
relevant instruction manual. Besides giving detailed
operating instructions, it also gives specific
information about safety, preventive maintenance,
etc.
Keep the manual always at the unit location, easy
accessible to the operating personnel.
These safety precautions are general and some
statements will therefore not always apply to a
particular unit.
Only people that have the right skills should be
allowed to operate, adjust, perform maintenance or
repair on Atlas Copco equipment.
It is the responsibility of management to appoint staff
with the appropriate training and skill for each
category of job.
Take the necessary steps to keep unauthorized
persons away from the unit and eliminate all possible
sources of danger at the unit.
When handling, operating, overhauling and/or
performing maintenance or repair on Atlas Copco
equipment, the mechanics are expected to use safe
engineering practices and to observe all relevant local
safety requirements and ordinances.
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting
from neglecting these precautions or by nonobservance of ordinary caution and due care requir ed
in handling, operating, maintenance or repair, also if
not expressly mentioned in this instruction manual, is
disclaimed by Atlas Copco.
The manufacturer does not accept any liability for any
damage arising from the use of non-original parts and
for modifications, additions or conversions made
without the manufacturer’s approval in writing.
If any statement in this manual does not comply with
local legislation, the stricter of the two shall be
applied.
Statements in these safety precautions should not be
interpreted as suggestions, recommendations or
inducements that it should be used in violation of any

AUTHORISED PERSONNEL
Only people that have the right skills should be
allowed to operate, adjust, perform maintenance or
repair on Atlas Copco equipment.
It is the responsibility of management to appoint
operators with the appropriate training and skill for
each category of job.
Skill level 1: Operator
An operator is trained in all aspects of operating the
unit with the push-buttons, and is trained to know the
safety aspects.
Skill level 2: Mechanical technician
A mechanical technician is trained to operate the unit
the same as the operator. In addition, the mechanical
technician is also trained to perform maintenance and
repair, as described in the instruction manual, and is
allowed to change settings of the control and safety
system. A mechanical technician does not work on
live electrical components.
Skill level 3: Electrical technician
An electrical technician is trained and has the same
qualifications as both the operator and the mechanical
technician. In addition, the electrical technician may
carry out electrical repairs within the various
enclosures of the unit. This includes work on live
electrical components.
Skill level 4: Specialist from the manufacturer
This is a skilled specialist sent by the manufacturer or
its agent to perform complex repairs or modifications
to the equipment.
In general it is recommended that not more than two
people operate the unit, more operators could lead to
unsafe operating conditions.
DANGERS WHEN NOT FOLLOWING SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Not observing the safety instructions may lead to
personal injury, damage to the equipment and
environmental hazards. Not observing the safety
instructions will void any warranty claim.
SAFETY-CONSCIOUS WORKING METHOD
All safety instructions in this manual as well as
national accident preventing regulations and
company-internal regulations regarding labour,
operation and safety have to be observed.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a pump. Do not use pumps
while tired or under influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating
pumps can result in serious personal injury.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Contain long hair. Keep your hair,
clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery, or long hair can be caught in
moving parts.
Use approved safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection, protective shoes and gloves.
SAFETY DURING MAINTENANCE
The owner is responsible for adequate training of the
personnel maintaining the pumps. In principle all
maintenance has to be performed on a non-energised
pump. Observe the procedures as mentioned in the
manual.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Pumps must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong
or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor
plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in
doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not abuse the power cable. Never use the power
cable to carry the pumps or pull the plug from an
outlet. Keep the power cable away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged power cables
increase the risk of electric shock.
Use a network protected by a ground fault circuit
interrupter.
CONVERSION AND SPARE PARTS
Conversions are only allowed after written consent of
the manufacturer. Always use original spare parts.
Unauthorised conversion and / or the use of nonoriginal spare parts will void any warranty claims.

UNINTENDED USE
The reliability of the pump is only guaranteed when it
is used according the specifications in this manual.
The limits as indicated are not to be exceeded under
any circumstances.
Do not use the pump to transport water for human
consumption, for water well pumping or for
installation in an explosive atmosphere.
Caustic, slightly inflammable and other explosive
substances such as petrol, petroleum, diluted
nitrogen, greases, oils, salt water and waste water
from toilets as well as sludgy water that has a slower
flow capacity than water, should not be transported
using the pump.
The temperature of the transported fluids should not
exceed 40°C.
The appliance is not suitable for use as a stationary
installation (such as a lifting device, fountain pump).
