C. Mounting Type “C” Flexible Coupling
1. After the clutch has been mounted on its shaft
as explained in Section III, inspect the coupling
shaft and key for any nicks or burrs and remove
any that are present.
2. Make sure that the coupling shaft keyway
is in alignment with the clutch shaft keyway.
Position shaft key and slide coupling onto the
appropriate shaft.
3. Slide the coupling flange onto the coupling
studs. The coupling flange and adapter should
be separated by a gap of 1/8”.
4. Secure the coupling to drive shaft by tightening
the two setscrews located in the hub of the
flange. Refer to Table 8 for recommended
coupling setscrew seating torques.
5. Parallel Alignment
a. Place a straightedge across the clutch
housing and coupling flange as shown in
Figure 11.
b. Measure the offset around the periphery of
these two components without rotating the
shafts.
c. If the difference in offset from any two points
180 degrees apart exceeds the maximum
value shown in Table 9, the shafts must be
realigned.
