UK’s largest fleet of environmentally friendly pumps

As the hirer, please read the following key safety points beforeoperating any equipment:

Risk Assessment

There is a duty on employers under current Health & Safetylegislation to adopt best practice measures to reduce risk andensure the Health & Safety of themselves, co-workers and the public.

Testing

In line with the Health & Safety Executive requirements,submersible pumps will have to be checked for earthconductivity and resistance on a 90-day cycle. This may resultin Speedy requiring access to the equipment whilst on hire.

Special Safety Devices

Do not disable or adjust any safety or protective device fitted tothe pump or increase any governed speed or workingpressures in the pump.

Exhaust Gases

Do not operate equipment in confined spaces without goodventilation. Breathing exhaust gases is dangerous and couldpotentially kill.

Sparks & Fire

Explosions and fire can be caused by sparks from exhaust orelectrical systems. Do not use machines in a closed areawhere there is flammable material, vapour or dust.

Hot Surfaces

Whilst the pump is in normal operation do not touch any ofthe engine components including the exhaust, pump ends,valves and tanks. Surfaces get extremely hot and can burn.

HEALTH & SAFETY

11WELCOME

Super-silent pumps

Hydraulic Fluid

To check for hydraulic fluid leaks hold a piece of cardboardclose to suspected leaks and then inspect for fluid. Do not usebare hands – fine jets of hydraulic fluid at high pressure canpenetrate the skin. Always wear eye protection. If fluid comesinto contact with eyes or flesh seek medical help immediately.

Oil

Do not handle used engine oil more than necessary as itcontains harmful contaminants which can cause skin cancer.Always use barrier cream or wear gloves to prevent skincontact. Avoid contact with the mouth.

Damaged Hoses & Cables

Damaged hoses and cables can cause fatal accidents. Inspectregularly for:

• Damaged end fittings / loose glands

• Chafed outer covers or exposed wire armour

• Ballooned outer covers

• Kinked or crushed hoses

• Embedded armouring in outer covers

Electrical Control Equipment

Earth leakage protective devices and motor overloads shouldonly be adjusted by a competent person.

Safety Symbols

*Safety gloves and protective footwear should always be wornwhen handling pumps and/or any ancillary equipment.

REFERENCE DATA51FLOW ESTIMATES

Super-silent pumps

Flow Estimates

Flow meters are available for this purpose. In addition the following simple tests can be used. The pipe should be straight, at least1.5m (5ft) from the nearest elbow, bend or valve. The rate of flow can be estimated from the distance 'X' or 'Y'. For larger pipesthe flow is proportioned to pipe diameter squared (full pipe only).

• Use the lifting points provided and check before use that theattachment to the chassis and condition thereof is satisfactory.

• Site the pump on a dry level base clear of inflammable material.

• Before carrying out any maintenance ensure battery isolatorswitch is in off position and key is removed.

• Rotating machinery – Never insert anything into suction tubewhilst pump set is running.

• Check that all guards are secure and never operate the pumpwith missing or defective guards.

• Position the exhaust so that it is unlikely to cause a hazard tohealth and be aware of hot exhaust pipes.

• Before starting the engine the operator must familiarise himselfon how to stop it.

• Never use in a confined space – allow adequate ventilation forcooling and removal of engine exhaust fumes.

• Check that the pump and its performance is suitable for theapplication with regards to volume to be pumped, nature ofmaterial to be pumped and location of its destination.

• When checking coolant level care must be taken as the system ispressurised. Allow engine to cool before checking.

• When handling fuel, lubricating oil and battery electrolyte takenecessary precautions to protect skin and eyes.

• Always wear appropriate P.P.E. when working around openwater. Be aware of any trip hazards.
