2.3 Hazards caused by failure to comply with the safety instructions
Failure to comply with the safety instructions may pose a risk for both personnel and also for the
environment and the machine. Failure to comply with the safety instructions may invalidate any
damage claims.
Specifically, non-compliance can pose the following risks:
- Failure of important machine/unit functions
- Failure of specified maintenance and repair procedures
- Exposure of persons to electrical, mechanical and chemical hazards
- Risk to the environment owing to hazardous substances being released
- Damage to installations and buildings
2.4 Safety at work
The safety instructions contained in the Operating Manual, the relevant national accident prevention
regulations and any other service and safety instructions issuedby the operator must be observed.
2.5 General safety instructions for the operator/user
If hot or cold machine components involve hazards, they must be guarded to prevent accidental
contact. Guards for moving parts (e.g. coupling) must not be removed when the machine is in
operation. Any leakage (e.g. from the shaft seal) of hazardous fluids (e.g. explosive,
toxic, hot) must be drained away to prevent risk to persons or the environment.
Statutory regulations must be observed. Electrical hazards must be prevented (for details see VDE
Specifications and the by-laws of the local power supply utilities).
Attention must be paid to ensuring proper use by the swimmers.
The submerged counter swim unit is suitable only for countercurrent swimming and massaging.
Any other use or alterations not approved by the manufacturer will invalidate any warranty
or liability claims.
The optional remote control may be used only in the vicinity of the pool (visual range to the pool).
The nozzle jet is extremely powerful. Always reduce the jet pressure before massaging. Do not direct
the full massage pressure against soft body parts. Switch off the unit to swivel the ball nozzle.
For massaging large areas, reduce the flow rate.
Switch off the unit to mount and remove the massage hose.
For a spot massage, keep the massage hose jet firmly under water in your hand.
Guide the massage hose nozzle at a distance to the required positions.
Never approach the suction openings with loose long hair.
Care must be taken to ensure that the water temperature does not exceed 35°C!
2.6 Safety Instructions for maintenance, inspection and assembly work
The operator must ensure that all maintenance, inspection and assembly work is performed by
authorised and qualified personnel who have adequately familiarised themselves by studying this
Operating Manual in detail. The accident prevention regulations must be observed.
Work on the machine is permitted only when it is at a standstill.
The procedure for bringing the machine to a standstill described in the Operating Manual must be
closely observed.
Pumps and pump units which convey hazardous media must be decontaminated. Immediately on
completion of work, all safety and protective facilities must be re-installed and rendered operational
again.
Prior to restarting the machine, the instructions listed under 6. “Startup” must be observed.
2.7 Unauthorised alterations and production of spare parts
Alterations or modifications to the machine are permitted only following consultation with the
manufacturer.
In the interest of safety, genuine spare parts and accessories authorised by the manufacturer should
be used. The use of alternative parts may exempt the manufacturer from any liability.
