Explanation
Make sure that the hold-down bolts for the driver feet are loose
before you make alignment corrections.
This makes it possible to move the driver
when you make alignment corrections.
Check the alignment again after any mechanical adjustments. This corrects any misalignments that an
adjustment may have caused.
Attach the dial indicators for alignment
You must have two dial indicators in order to complete this procedure.
1. Attach two dial indicators on the pump coupling half (X):
a) Attach one indicator (P) so that the indicator rod comes into contact with the perimeter
of the driver coupling half (Y).
This indicator is used to measure parallel misalignment.
b) Attach the other indicator (A) so that the indicator rod comes into contact with the inner
end of the driver coupling half.
This indicator is used to measure angular misalignment.

2. Rotate the pump coupling half (X) in order to check that the indicators are in contact with
the driver coupling half (Y) but do not bottom out.
3. Adjust the indicators if necessary.
Pump-to-driver alignment instructions
Perform angular alignment for a vertical correction
Before you start this procedure, make sure that the dial indicators are properly attached for
measurement.
1. Set the angular alignment indicator to zero at the top-center position (12 o’clock) of the
driver coupling half (Y).
2. Rotate the indicator to the bottom-center position (6 o’clock).
3. Record the indicator reading.

Negative
The coupling halves are farther apart at the bottom than at the top. Perform one of
these steps:
• Add shims in order to raise the feet of the driver at the shaft end.
• Remove shims in order to lower the feet of the driver at the other end.
