Pedestal Base-Mounted
Pump Housing Lubrication
Waukesha Series 200 Pedestal Pumps are lubricated with NLGI grade 2
Lithium Complex Grease. Use only NLGI grade 2 Lithium Complex thick-
ened greases to replenish the bearing grease supply. The location of the
grease
fittings is indicated in Figure 62.
NOTE: Combining greases that will not mix with the products above can
change the viscosity/consistency of the grease, resulting in bearing dam-
age. If there is doubt, remove the bearings, clean, and re-pack them.
For compatible lubricants, contact Waukesh

erry-Burrell Application

Pump Alignment
A flexible coupling is used to compensate for end play and small differ-
ences in alignment. The pump and drive shaft should be aligned as
closely as po
ssible.
Checking Angular Alignment
Using feeler gauges or taper gauges, adjust to get equal dimension at all
points. At the same time, set space between the coupling halves to the
manufacturer’s recommended distance.
Checking Parallel Alignment
Using straight edges and shims, move the drive and shim height as
needed.
