WARNING
This pump platform is mounted on fixed castors; risk of movement is possible which may result in
damage to the inlet and exhaust pipe work, ideally the platform should be chocked in its operating
position to prevent accidental movement.
The pump platform should be placed in a position where it does not constitute a trip hazard. The
vacuum pumps overhang the footprint of the platform. Care should be taken when moving the
platform to avoid damage to the platform and personnel.
WARNING
The pump platform should not be lifted using the individual vacuum pump lifting eyes. The pump
platform should be lifted using suitably rated slings positioned beneath the base platform and
external to the castors. Care should be taken to ensure the lifting slings do not foul the vacuum
pumps.
