DANGER !
Before opening any Viking pump liquid cham-
ber (pumping chamber, reservoir, relief valve
adjusting cap fitting etc.) Be sure:
1. That any pressure in the chamber has been
completely vented through the suction or
discharge lines or other appropriate openings
or connections.
2. That the driving means (motor, power takeoff,
turbine, engine, etc.) has been "locked out"
or made non- operational so that it cannot be
started while work is being done on pump.
3. That you know what liquid the pump has been
handling and the precautions necessary to
safely handle the liquid. Obtain a material
safety data sheet (MSDS) for the liquid to be
sure these precautions are understood.
Failure to follow above listed precaution-
ary measures may result in serious injury or
death.
