6EM Thru 18GM - 1100 Vertical Turbine Pumps 29
Figure A
Style II Coupling
A. Determine the correct impeller
position from the Technical Data
page found in drawing section of this
manual.
B. Thread the adjusting nut upwards
toward the driver half coupling until
the correct amount of gap “A” is
reached (refer to the above
illustration).
C. Adjust to the position that bolt holes
line up and insert coupling bolts.
Torque to the values as shown the
coupling dimension and technical
data page in the drawing section of
this manual. Install the setscrew in
the pump coupling hub and secure.
D. Install protective guards.
WARNING
Make sure the protective guard is in
place on the discharge head before
operating the pump.
NOTE
Extremely long pumps (deep settings)
may require additional nut adjustment to
accommodate line shaft stretch. Extra
adjustment is not generally required for
pumps less than 150 feet in length. For
pumps over 150 feet long, consult the
factory for instructions.
Refer to the driver manual to assure that all
lubrication instructions have been followed
completely.
Consult the driver manufacturer's manual to
assure that all safety procedures are
completely understood and implemented
prior to operation.
CAUTION
Grease lubricated drivers are shipped pre-
lubricated. Oil lubricated drivers and right
angle gears are shipped dry and require an
initial fill of the manufacturer's recom-
mended lubricant prior to start-up. See
driver manufacture’s manual for lubrication
specifications. Initial start-up lubricants are
NOT supplied by the manufacturer.
Style IV Coupling
CAUTION
Before installing the driver, read and
understand the driver manufacturer's
instruction manual.
DANGER
Electric motors must be installed and
operated only by qualified, trained
electrical technicians. Consult the motor
manufacturer or the motor manual to
assure that all installation and operation
safety procedures are fully understood
and implemented. Always lock out all
controls and/or power supplies before
installing or servicing.
A. Check both driver and pump shafts for
burrs or dirt, cleaning as necessary.
Also check the coupling parts for burrs
and dirt, cleaning as required. If force is
required to position the couplings on the
shafts, non-metallic dead blow hammers
should be used to prevent damage to the
machined surfaces.
