•
Safe lifting points are specifically identified in this manual. It is critical to lift the equipment
only at these points. Integral lifting eyes or eye bolts on pump and motor components are
intended for use in lifting the individual components only.
•
Lifting and handling heavy equipment poses a crush hazard. Use caution during lifting
and handling and wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE, such as steel-
toed shoes, gloves, etc.) at all times. Seek assistance if necessary.
•
Do not attach sling ropes to shaft ends.
The unit must be unloaded and handled by lifting equally at four or more points on the baseplate. The
lugs on the upper half casing are designed for lifting the upper half of the casing only.
Pumps mounted horizontally
Pump mounting
Lifting method
A bare pump
Place a nylon sling, chain, or wire rope around both bearing housings.
A pump mounted on a base that has
lifting holes
WARNING:
If the driver has been mounted on the baseplate at the
factory, then it is safe to lift the entire assembly.
CAUTION:
Take care to size equipment for unbalanced loads that
may exist if the driver is not mounted on the base at the
time of lifting. The driver may or may not be mounted at
the factory.
Attach nylon slings, chains, or wire rope to ANSI/OSHA Standard S hooks.
Then attach the hooks in the holes provided in the four corners of the base.
Make sure that the points of the hooks do not touch the bottom of the pump
base. Size the equipment for the load so that the lift angle is less than 45°
from the vertical.
A pump mounted on a base that
does not have lifting holes
Place one sling around the outboard bearing housing and place the another
sling around the back-end of the driver as close to the mounting feet as possi-
ble. Make certain that the sling will not damage the housing cover or conduit
boxes. Join the free ends of the slings together and place over the lifting
hook.
