7- SETTING UP
Preliminary checks
 Check the inlet line is connected and sealed.
 Check the filter is clean.
 Check all the seizure valves on the inlet line are open and the water normally flows to
the pump. Do not run the pump dry.
 Check that all discharge pipes are connected to use
 The coupling allowances between the pump shaft and the driving (semi-coupling misa-
lignment, cardan inclinations, shaft-pulley gap, belts strain, etc.) remain into the limita-
tions foreseen by the driving manufacturer.
 Replace the oil plug without vent (red colour) by the oil plug with vent. This operation
could have already been carried out by the producer of the machine incorporating the
pump.
 With pump at a standstill, check that the oil level corresponds to the middle of the oil lev-
el light. The oil level can be also checked by unscrewing the plug with vent: the correct
level must be included between the two notches on the rod. Remember that the oil level
must be always checked with pump at a standstill and completely cooled down.
 Before starting the pump, carefully read the instruction of this manual and the instruc-
tions of the machine incorporating the pump.
 Make sure that the pump moving parts are suitable protected and that they cannot be
accessed by unauthorised personnel.
 In case of use at very low temperature, make sure that there is no ice inside the pump.
 Check the cleaning of suction filter.
 Make the preliminary operations prescribed by the producer of the machine incorporat-
ing the pump.
CAUTION
 The pump cannot be commissioned if the machine that incorporates it does
not conform to the safety norms established by European Directives. This con-
formity is guaranteed by the presence of the CE marking and by the Declara-
tion of Conformity of the Producer of the machine incorporating the pump.
 Don’t use the pump in case:
- it has undergone strong hurts;
- there are oil leaks;
- there are visible water leaks.
In these cases have the pump be checked by an Engineer.
 Have an Engineer to make the checks expected by the extraordinary maintenance.
