12. Never leave wires or plumbing components where they can be a tripping hazard or become entangled in a moving component.

All maintenance should be done when machinery is stationary and has been isolated from its energy sources. It is dangerous to perform maintenance while machinery is still connected to its power source. Machinery should be isolated from its electrical, hydraulic, shaft driven or gas engine power source.

• Be sure to release all pressure from the system before performing any sort of maintenance on a pump.
• The sound level of the pump may exceed 80dBA. Observe all safety precautions when operating the pump within close proximity for extended periods of time by wearing hearing protectors.
• Extended exposure to elevated sound levels will result in hearing loss and other effects such as loss of balance and awareness.
• Do not pump at pressure higher than the maximum recommended pressure.
• Operate the pump between a temperature range of 45° to 140°F (7° to 60°C).
