The rotary-vane pump 1012855 is in accordance
with the following applicable European directives
and standards:
89/336/EEC Electromagnetic Compatibility
73/23/EEC Low Voltage Directive
EMC: EN55014-1 (2000) + A2 (2002),
EN55014-2 (1997) + A1 (2001)
LVD: EN60034-1 (1998) + A11 (2002)
Safe operation of the pump is guaranteed, pro-
vided it is used correctly. However, there is no
guarantee of safety if the equipment is used in
an improper or careless manner.
The pump may only be used for its intended
use. Any other use is to be considered improper.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for
damages caused by improper use of the pump.
Under no circumstance must the pump be al-
tered or tampered with.
In case of tempering the manufacturer declines
any responsibility for the functioning and safety
of the pump.
If it may be assumed for any reason that non-
hazardous operation will not be possible (e.g. visible
damage), the pump should be switched off immedi-
ately and secured against any unintended use.
In schools and other educational institutions, the
operation of the pump must be supervised by
qualified personnel.
• Before setting up and using the pump for the
first time, read the manual carefully.
• Confirm that the voltage selector switch is
set to the local mains voltage.
• The pump may only be connected to the mains
via a socket that has an earth connection.
• The pump may only be opened/repaired by
qualified and trained personnel. Always discon-
nect the pump by pulling the mains plug before
proceeding to any of the mentioned operations.
