MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR
• This manual must be available to and followed by
the maintenance staff. Only maintenance and repair
work described in this manual may be carried out.
Any other work and/or alterations to the con-
struction may only be carried out by Wilo custom-
er service.
• When carrying out work in basins and/or tanks, the
applicable local protection measures must be ob-
served in all cases. A second person must be present
for safety reasons.
• Only lifting equipment that is in a technically per-
fect condition and load carrying equipment that has
been officially approved may be used for lowering
and raising the pump. Make sure that the pump
does not jam during lifting and lowering. If the
pump does jam, do not apply lifting forces greater
than 1.2 times the pump weight. The maximum
permissible bearing capacity should never be ex-
ceeded!
Make sure that the lifting gear, ropes, and the
lifting equipment's safety devices are in perfect
working order. Work may only commence if the
lifting equipment has been checked and found to
be in perfect working order. If it is not checked,
fatal injuries may result.
• Electrical work on the pump and the system must
be carried out by a qualified electrician. Blown fuses
must be replaced immediately. They must never be
repaired. Only fuses for the specified electric current
and of the specified type may be used.
• If flammable solvents and cleaning agents are used,
naked flames and smoking are prohibited.
• Pumps that circulate fluids that are hazardous to
health or come into contact with such fluids must
be decontaminated. In addition, make sure that
no gases that are hazardous to health form or are
present.
If injuries are caused by fluids or gases that are
hazardous to health, apply the first aid measures
specified at the working premises and notify a
doctor immediately.
• Make sure that the necessary tools and materials are
available. Tidiness and cleanliness ensure safe and
smooth work on the pump. After working on the
pump, remove any used cleaning materials and tools
from the pump. Store all materials and tools in their
proper place.
• Operating materials should be collected in suitable
containers and disposed of properly. Always wear
appropriate protective clothing when performing
maintenance and repair work. This must also be
disposed of properly.
