The pump must be installed on a
foundation rigid enough to support the
entire weight of the pump plus the
weight of the fluid contained in it.
Weight data for the pump is given in the
assembly drawing. Weak foundations or
foundations spread on unstable ground
can cause misalignment, vibration, and
even total foundation failure.
Foundation bolts must be provided to
firmly anchor the pump to its
foundation.
Dimensions for the location and size of
the foundation bolts may be obtained
from the assembly drawing.
It is recommended that a template
be made for accurately locating the
foundation bolts. See the construction
drawing for the correct placement of the
anchor bolts.
