8.4 Mounting on a Grundfos base plate
Check that the Grundfos base plate will fit to your pump model.
The base plate is made with adjustable motor mount sliders to
accommodate a range of Grundfos CR-H pumps. See fig. 11.
The sliders make it possible to separate the motor from the pump
end if service is required.
To mount the pump to the base plate, proceed as follows:
1. Install the base plate (pos. 1) on the foundation in accordance
with the instructions in sections 8.1 to 8.3 .
2. If the base plate is grouted, allow grouting sufficient time to
dry.
3. Set the motor mount sliders (pos. 3) in position on the base
plate rails (pos. 2).
Make sure the 1/4" bolts are loose so that the sliders can slide
easily.
4. With a hoist, lower the pump until it is almost on the sliders.
5. Make all necessary adjustments to line up all bolts and bolt
holes and hand-tighten all bolts.
6. Lower the pump completely onto the base plate, and tighten
all bolts to the proper torque (see bolt table).

8.5 Outdoor installation
When installed outdoors, it is recommended to provide the motor
with a rain cover or other shelter. On Grundfos ML motors, it is
also recommended to open the bottom most drain hole in the
motor flange.
8.6 Hot surfaces
Figure 12 shows which pump parts get the same temperature as
the pumped liquid.
