All readings must be made with the button on the chalk mark.
The dial readings will indicate whether the driver must be raised, lowered, or moved to
either side. You can accurately align the shaft centers with this method even where faces or
outside diameters of the coupling are not square or concentric with the bores.
NOTICE:
Risk for rotation unbalance. Any gross deviation in squareness or concentricity must be
corrected.
5. After each adjustment, recheck both parallel and angular alignments.

Grout the baseplate
CAUTION:
Do not grout until the initial alignment is made.
Grout compensates for an uneven foundation. Together with the baseplate, grout makes a very
rigid interface between the pump and the foundation by distributing the weight over the length
of the base and preventing shifting. Use an approved, non-shrinking grout such as Embeco 636
or 885 by Master Builders, Cleveland, Ohio, or the equivalent.
