6.5 BASE PLATE GROUTING
1. This grouting instruction assumes a concrete sub base has been put in place to accept the
baseplate. The subbase should be clean of dirt, oil and any other debris.
2. Shims/wedges should be wood.
3. Shims/wedges should be placed on the sub base, as shown in Figure 6-3. Use 2 to 3 per stack
to obtain desired gap between baseplate and sub-base. Normal gap is 1” to 1-1/2”.
4. Carefully lower baseplate with pump and motor onto sub base over anchor bolts.
5. Level baseplate to 0.125” over length and 0.088” in over width.
6. When leveling is complete, uniformly hand tighten the anchor bolts.
