NEVER walk or reach under a suspended pump.
DO NOT screw an eye bolt into the motor housing and
attempt to lift assembly! The lifting point built into the
motor case is not designed to support the combined
weight of the motor and pump.
The crane or hoist must have a capacity in excess of
the combined weight of the motor and pump. Use a
minimum of two chains or straps to lift motor/pump
assembly. Each chain or strap must have a capacity in
excess of the combined weight of the motor and pump.
MOTOR / PUMP LIFTING PROCEDURE:
Wrap the first chain or strap under the fan end of the
motor up tight against the motor feet, and the second
chain or strap under the pump bracket between the
pump end and the motor.
Raise motor/pump assembly slowly to ensure that the
chains or straps will not slip when put under tension.
Balance motor and pump with chains or straps to
maintain proper weight distribution. If not balanced,
release tension on the chains or straps and readjust.
