covering flushing of driver bearings.
Assemble oiler to bearing housing. Adjust oiler and fill
bearing housing with oil per “Trico Oil Level Setting”
Operation of the unit with incorrect oil level
setting can result in overheating of the bearings,
lack of lubrication to the bearing failures, pump
seizures and actual breakup of the equipment,
exposing operating personnel to injury.
Please refer to the sectional drawing for ring and
Check pump rotating by starting
momentarily the direction of rotation is shown in 1.5
, Note pump coasts to a gradual stop.
Guarding is supplied and fitted to the pump
Fasteners must remain captive in the guard
when the guard is removed to comply with
Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
Whenever guarding is removed or disturbed
ensure that all the protective guards around the
pump coupling and exposed parts of the shaft are
Ensure all electrical, hydraulic,
pneumatic, sealant and lubrication systems (as
applicable) are connected and operational.
Ensure the inlet pipe and pump casing
are completely full of liquid before starting continuous
Initial start up procedure.
The starting procedure to be followed for normal
start-up is the same as that for initial start-up. When
automatic recycle valve is used, discharge valve can
Do not wipe down in the vicinity of rotating
parts, if unusual noise or vibrations occur, secure
the pump as soon as possible.
The unit must not be operated unless
coupling guard is bolted in place. Failure to
observe this could result in injury to operating
When pump is equipped with manifolded
vent and drain lines, each line must be equipped
with an individual valve to prevent any liquid from
a high pressure line flowing into a low pressure
line. These valves must be kept in the closed
position during pump operation.
Observe extreme caution when venting
and/or draining hazardous liquids. Wear
protective clothing in the presence of caustic,
corrosive, volatile, flammable, or hot liquids. Do
not breathe toxic vapors. Do not allow sparking,
flames, or hot surfacing in vicinity of the
The pump should not be operated
outside of the design speed range.
