7.9 Transporting the portable fire pump
CAUTION!
Risk of injury to operating personnel during transport
Unfolded handles represent a tripping hazard!
Fold the unfolded handles after use.
If possible, always carry with 4 people and lift from the knees to reduce the
risk of back injuries.
Carrying over long distances can lead to excessive strain.
After using the portable fire pump allow it cool down before transporting it
away, to allow possible absorbed radiation heat (depending on the opera-
tion duration) on the carrying handles to be dissipated.
7.9.1 Manual transport
► To carry the portable fire pump, 4 people are required (total weight ap-
prox. 166 kg).
► The carrying handles (TG1-4) of the portable fire pump are de-
signed so that they can be put into position both longitudinally and
transversely to the unit. For this purpose, the carrying handles are
pressed down and then rotated to the desired position.
