II.
Position the unit in its allocated position (preferably on the same foundation/baseplate as the driven
unit). Secure unit to the foundation using the relevant size and grade of bolts. Tighten the bolts
slightly.
III.
Align the unit using an appropriate technique. (Refer to Appendix D.) When alignment is complete,
tighten feet bolts to the appropriate torque for that particular size of bolt (Section 4.4) and re-check
unit alignment.
IV.
Secure protective guarding around the equipment in accordance with the relevant standards.
WARNING:
All rotating equipment must be provided with suitable guarding before running, or
injury may result.
VI.
Finally connect the motor to the power supply (Section 4.5) ensuring that the correct direction of
rotation is achieved.

INSTALLING FLANGE MOUNTED GEAR UNITS
NOTE:
Before commencing installation, ensure that all pre-installation tasks in Section 4 have been
executed.
The following instructions are the recommended procedures for the fitting and location of flange mounted
jPM Series gear units.
I.
Firstly, ensure that the foundation where the unit is to be positioned is suitable (as stated in Section
4.3) and is not distorted.
II.
Locate the unit in the appropriate mounting position.
III.
Secure the unit to the mounting face using the appropriate size and grade of bolts and tighten to the
correct torque (Section 4.4).
IV.
Secure protective guarding around the equipment in accordance with the relevant standards.
WARNING:
All rotating equipment must be provided with suitable guarding before running,or
injury may result.
VI.
Finally connect the motor to the power supply (Section 4.5) ensuring that the correct direction of
rotation is achieved.

INSTALLING SHAFT MOUNTED GEAR UNITS (TURNBUCKLE
RESTRAINT)
NOTE:
Before commencing installation, ensure that all pre-installation tasks in Section 4 have been
executed.
For instances where the customer is to supply the torque restraint, it must be ensured that a substantial
clearance is provided for the fixing member, to allow for eccentricity of the drive shaft and bearings.
The following instructions are the recommended procedures for the fitting and location of shaft mounted
jPM Series gear units.
I.
Firstly, ensure that the shaft onto which the unit is to be mounted is suitable (as stated in Section
4.3) and is running true.
