6.4 Alignment
When a complete pump set comes pre-assembled from the
factory, the coupling has been accurately aligned by means of
shims inserted under the pump and engine.
During transport and installation, the pump/driver alignment may
have been affected. Therefore always check the alignment when
the pump set has been installed.
Check the final alignment when the pump has obtained its
operating temperature under normal operating conditions.
6.4.1 Pump with diesel engine
A flexible coupling connects engine and pump. See fig. 11.
Fig. 11
Flexible coupling between pump and engine
The coupling is fixed axially on the engine fly-wheel. The pump
shaft is pushed on axially and fixed radially with four screws.
See fig. 12. For further information, see the installation and
operating instructions for the coupling.

Warning
Lift the pump set by means of the lifting eyes of
the base frame. Never use the lifting eyes of the
individual components.
Use only suitable lifting equipment in proper
condition. See also the weight specifications on
the nameplate.
Only transport the pump set when the cabinet
door is closed and locked.
Warning
The permissible floor loading must not be
exceeded. The weight of the pump set is stated
on the nameplate.

Caution
Careful alignment is important for a long service
life of the coupling. This is particularly important
at increased engine speed. Follow the
instructions of the coupling manufacturer.
Note
The alignment should be made before connecting
the pipes; if not, it may not be possible to move
the pump, and it will be difficult to move the
driver.
