The foundation has been prepared in accordance with the dimensions given in
the outline drawing / general arrangement drawing.
1. Position the pump set on the foundation and use a spirit level to align shaft and
discharge nozzle.
Permissible deviation: 0.2 mm/m
2. If required, use shims (2) to adjust the height.
Always fit shims immediately to the left and right of the foundation bolts (4)
between the baseplate/foundation frame and the foundation itself.
For a bolt-to-bolt clearance > 800 mm, fit additional shims (3) halfway between
the adjoining holes.
All shims must lie perfectly flush.
3. Insert the foundation bolts (4) into the holes provided.
4. Use concrete to set the foundation bolts (4) into the foundation.
5. Wait until the concrete has set firmly, then align the baseplate.
6. Tighten the foundation bolts (4) evenly and firmly.
NOTE
For baseplates more than 400 mm wide it is recommended to grout the baseplate with
low-shrinkage concrete.
NOTE
For baseplates made of grey cast iron it is recommended to grout the baseplate with low-
shrinkage concrete.
NOTE
For low-noise operation contact KSB to check whether the pump set can be installed on
anti-vibration mounts.

2. To adjust any differences in height, loosen the bolts and locknuts (1, 3) of the
leveling elements (4).
3. Turn the levelling nut (2) until any differences in height have been compensated.
4. Re-tighten the locknuts (1, 3) at the levelling elements (4).
