vibration, and bearing loads that result in premature bearing failure and ultimate seizing of the pump. Misalignment can be angular, parallel, or a combination of these, and in the horizontal and vertical planes. Final alignment should be made by moving and shimming the motor on the base plate, until the coupling hubs are within the recommended tolerances measured in total run-out. All measurements should be taken with the pump and motor foot bolts tightened. The shaft of sleeve bearing motors should be in the center of its mechanical float.

NOTE: Proper alignment is essential for correct pump operation. This should be performed after base plate has been properly set and grout has dried thoroughly according to instructions. Final alignment should be made by shimming driver only. Alignment should be made at operating temperatures.

WARNING: Unexpected Start-up Hazard

Disconnect and lock out power before servicing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury or death and property damage.

ANSI/OSHA COUPLER GUARD

REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

WARNING: Unexpected Start-up Hazard

Disconnect and lock out power before servicing. Failure to follow these instructions could result in serious personal injury or death and property damage.

NOTE: Do not spread the inner and outer guards more than necessary for guard removal or installation. Over spreading the guards may alter their fit and appearance.

Removal

a.Remove the two capscrews that hold the outer (motor side) coupler guard to the support bracket(s).

b.Spread the outer guard and pull it off the inner guard.

c.Remove the capscrew that holds the inner guard to the support bracket.

d.Spread the inner guard and pull it over the coupler.

Installation

a.Check coupler alignment before proceeding. Correct if necessary.

b.Spread the inner guard and place it over the coupler.

c.With the inner guard straddling the support bracket, install a capscrew through the hole (or slot) in the support bracket and guard located closest to the pump. Do not tighten the capscrew.

d.Spread the outer guard and place it over the inner guard.

e.Install the outer guard capscrews by following the step stated below which pertains to your particular pump:

i.For pumps with a motor saddle support bracket: Ensure the outer guard is straddling the support arm, and install but do not tighten the two remaining capscrews.

ii.For pumps without a motor saddle support bracket: Insert the spacer washer between the holes located closest to the motor in the outer guard, and install, but do not tighten, the two remaining capscrews.

f.Position the outer guard so it is centered around the shaft, and so there is less than a 1/4" of the motor shaft exposed. On guards that utilize a slotted support bracket, the inner guard will have to be positioned so there is only a 1/4" of the pump shaft exposed.

g.Holding the guard in this position, tighten the three capscrews.
