missioning” before returning the machine to service.
2.7 Unauthorized Modification and Manufacture
of Spare Parts
Modifications or alterations of the machine are only permitted
after consultation with the manufacturer. Original spare parts
and accessories authorized by the manufacturer ensure safety.
The use of other parts can invalidate any liability of the manu-
facturer for consequential damage.
2.8 Unauthorized Modes of Operation
The warranty relating to the operating reliability and safety of
the pump / unit supplied is only valid if the machine is used in

3 Transport and Interim Storage
3.1 Transport
Transport of the unit requires proper preparation and handling.
Always make sure that the pump or the unit remains in horizon-
tal position during transport and cannot slip out of the transport
suspension arrangement. Do not use lifting slings on the free
shaft end of the pump or on the motor eyebolt.
Also make sure that the coupling guard is not damaged
by the sling arrangement.If the pump / unit slips out of
the suspension arrangement, it may cause personal in -
jury and damage to property.
Transport in horizontal position is recommended in all cases,
since this ensures stable positioning of the unit without any risk
of accident, whatever the method of transport, e.g. road, rail or
ship, etc.
For transport purposes the unit shall be secured on suitable pal-
lets or sleds. All loose and movable parts must be secured.

tor alone, never for lifting the complete unit.
