1 . SAFETY
These operating instructions are valid for the packaged pumping station Sanifos®
1600, 2100, 3100.
These operating instructions contain basic instructions which have to be observed
during set-up, operation and maintenance. For this reason, these operating
instructions must by all means be read before installation and commissioning by the
installation technician as well as by the competent specialist staff / user, and must
be permanently available at the location of the device.
Not only the general safety instructions mentioned in this main point on safety have
to be observed, but also the special safety instructions mentioned in the other main
points, for example for private use.
In case of non-observation to the operating instructions - in particular the safety
instructions - as well as unauthorised modification of the device or the installation
of non-original spare parts the warranty claims will automatically become void. The
manufacturer assumes no liability for any damage resulting from this!
