Pump foundation for frame mounted models
The total weight of the concrete foundation should be approximately twice the weight of the pump assembly.
Level base (Level chassis)
After the concrete has set, check the pump base for level. Drive metal shims under the base near the anchor
bolts as below. Tighten anchor bolts and recheck the base for level (see figure 2).
Coupling alignment for frame mount models
The coupling must be properly aligned to give quiet, long-life service to the pump and driver. The pump
and driver shafts areca refully aligned at the factory but should always be checked after the pump is
installed and before the initial operation.
Place a straight edge across coupling halves, top and side; both positions must line up to be correct.
If misalignment exists, adjust the shims between the pump base and the foundation until exact alignment is
accomplished (see figure 3)
