Special rules relating to Doda AFI Pumps
• Never touch or tamper with the pump whilst it is in operation other than for priming
purposes. (see Priming Instructions)
• Ensure pumps and pipes are fully depressurised before any couplings or valves are
opened.
• BEWARE – If the pump has been allowed to run without the movement of liquid
through it, there will be a build up of heat in any remaining liquid which will burn or
scald should valves be opened – always allow the pump and contents to cool
before attempting to open valves or couplings.
• Never allow pump castings to be pressurised by any air compressor equipment
used with slurry spreading systems – pump must be isolated with a suitable valve
before purging hoses with compressed air.
