4.
Lower the assembled pump (less motor) carefully into the pit. Guide unit carefully so that it does not
strike sides of pit. When unit is in place, level the support plate. Shim under support plate as re-
quired. Pump must hang perfectly vertical to avoid placing a bending stress on the unit.
5.
The support plate should be bolted to an adequately supported structure, substantial enough to ab-
sorb any vibration and to form a permanent, rigid support for the unit.
6.
Place motor on motor support and tighten bolts (with lode washers) snugly.
7.
Check for alignment by laying a straight edge across coupling hubs at four points 90° apart. See
image below. When the straight edge rests evenly at all four points, the coupling is aligned.
NOTICE:
Alignment of the coupling is of extreme importance for trouble-free mechanical operation.

8.
The machined faces of the motor support and motor will provide angular alignment. However, any
foreign material or burrs on the surface will destroy this alignment. Make sure surfaces are clean
and smooth.

Bed plate mounted units are normally mounted on a concrete foundation of liberal thickness poured on a
solid footing, using a one-three-five mix. The foundation should be substantial in order to absorb any vi-
bration and to form a permanent, rigid support for the pumping unit.
1.
The location and size of foundation bolts are shown on the outline assembly drawing supplied for
the unit.
2.
When unit is mounted on a concrete foundation, each foundation bolt should be installed with a pipe
sleeve around it to allow for adjustment.
a) Place a washer between the bolt head and sleeve to hold bolts. See image below.
