7. Lower the cover over the motor so that the sides of the cover slide over the base
plate.
8. Align the slots in the bottom side of the cover with the corresponding holes in the
side of the base plate. Insert screws through washers and into each hole and tighten.
Level Pump
1. Remove the motor cover if supplied, and place a level on the side of the pump base
next to the motor.
2. Level the pump to within .125 inches (3.2 mm) over length of the pump base and
to within .088 inches (1.5 mm) over the width of the base by turning the legs either
clockwise or counterclockwise.. Make sure the base is not distorted. Replace the motor
cover if supplied.
Note: For portable applications, the level of the pump should be checked and adjusted
after each movement.
Piping
General: Guidelines for piping are given in the “Hydraulic Institute Standards” and
should be reviewed prior to installation.
Warning: Never draw piping into place by using force on the suction and discharge
connections of the pump. This may impose dangerous strains on the unit causing
misalignment, poor operation and physical injury and damage to the equipment.
1. All piping must be supported independently of and line up naturally with the pump
suction and discharge. It MUST NOT place piping loads on the pump.
2. Piping should be no smaller than the pump’s suction and discharge connections and
kept as short as possible, with minimal fittings to minimize friction losses.
3. DO NOT connect piping to pump until pump and/or driver are securely fastened to
a supporting structure.
4. When pumping liquids at elevated temperatures, it is recommended that expansion
loops or joints be used in the suction and discharge piping. Refer to the following
drawings for correct placement to avoid pump strain or misalignment due to linear
expansion of piping.
