.
2. Remove fan cover of motor.
3. Consider direction of rotation (arrow).
4. Rotate shaft slowly by hand via the fan.
The shaft must rotate easily. If the impeller rubs against the
pump casing (for example due to transport damage) it has
been damaged.
When the impeller rubs against the casing: Contact
HILGE Service.
When the impeller runs failure free:
5. Re-fit fan cover of the motor.
6. Re-fit motor shroud

Danger of misalignment of the pump due to an improper foun-
dation.
A misaligned pump due to an improper foundation can cause
death, grievous bodily harm or damage to the plant.
•
Ensure that the foundation on which the pump is set up is
clean and flat and has sufficient load capacity.
•
Mount the pump – especially when it is to be set up verti-
cally

– with the use of suitable heavy-duty anchors. As
the centre of gravity is higher, the pump can tip.
