Specific Flywheel Coupling Alignment Instructions
Listed Driveshafts. Refer to Listed Driveshaft Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual C132355
Driveshaft Installation. To check the alignment of the pump shaft and engine crankshaft centerlines for proper
Parallel Offset and Angular tolerance, the driveshaft must be installed between the flywheel drive disc and the
flanged hub on the pump shaft. Before removing the driveshaft guard, disconnect the negative battery cable
from both batteries. Before beginning the alignment, checks and making any necessary corrections, install the
driveshaft and re-torque all driveshaft connection bolts to the values given in the following table:

Note 1: It is recommended that a medium strength thread-locker (Loctite 243blue) be used in the assembly
and torqueing of all hardware. This may be purchased as part number C126758, 50ml bottle.
Note 2: Four of the hi-tensile bolts and/or nuts, that are used to connect the driveshaft to the drive disc and that
connect the driveshaft to the pump companion flange, will require a “crow’s foot” wrench attached to a
standard torque wrench in order to apply the required tightening torque. A standard socket will not work due
to close proximity of the bolts and/or nuts with the driveshaft yoke. The tightening torque values listed for these
bolts and/or nuts have been corrected for using a “crow’s foot” adapter which extends the standard torque
wrench’s length.
Note 3 For the high torque required for these nuts it is recommended that a boxed end crows foot be used.
