Alignment MUST be checked prior to running. See
Figure 6.
Tighten all hold-down bolts before checking the align-
ment.
If realignment is necessary, always move the motor.
Shim as required.
Figure 6
Parallel misalignment (shafts with axis parallel but not
concentric). Place dial indicator on one hub and rotate
this hub 360º while taking readings on the outside di-
ameter of the other hub. Parallel alignment is achieved
when reading is 0.005" (0.127 mm) TIR, or less.
Angular misalignment (shaft with axis concentric
but not parallel). Place dial indicator on one hub and
rotate this hub 360º while taking readings on the face
of the other hub. Angular alignment is achieved when
reading is 0.005" (0.127 mm) TIR, or less.
Final alignment is achieved when parallel and angu-
lar requirements are satisfied with motor hold-down
bolts tight.
NOTICE: ALWAYS RECHECK BOTH ALIGNMENTS
AFTER MAKING ANY MECHANICAL
ADJUSTMENTS.
ROTATION
NOTICE: INCORRECT ROTATION MAY CAUSE
DAMAGE TO THE PUMP AND VOIDS
THE WARRANTY.
Correct rotation is right-hand, CLOCKWISE when
viewed from the motor end. Remove motor end plug
or cover to observe rotation.
To reverse three phase motor rotation, interchange
any two power supply leads.

NOTICE: NO NOT RUN PUMP DRY OR SEAL
After stabilizing the system at normal operating condi-
tions, check the piping. If necessary, adjust the pipe
supports.
On frame-mounted units, coupling alignment may
have changed due to the temperature differential
between pump and motor. Recheck alignment follow-
ing procedures and hazard warnings in "COUPLING
ALIGNMENT" section of this manual.
MAINTENANCE
Hazardous voltage
can shock, burn or
cause death.
Hazardous pressure can
cause personal injury or
property damage.
Close-Coupled Units:
Bearings are located in and are part of the motor. For
lubrication information, refer to motor manufacturer's
instructions.
Frame-Mounted Units:
Pump bearing frames have greased for life bearings.
No lubrication is possible or necessary.
Follow motor and coupling manufacturer's lubrication
instructions.
