5.7 Solid Shaft Driver Installation
1. Clean the driver mounting flange on the discharge head and remove any burrs or nicks on the register
and mounting face. Oil lightly.
2. Clean the headshaft threads. Lubricate the threads and try installing the adjusting nut (it should thread
on by hand easily, if not, clean up the threads with a fine three cornered file).
3. Clean the driver mounting flange and remove any burrs or nicks on the register and mounting flange. Oil
lightly.
a. Check the shaft diameter and projection against coupling and schematic provided.
b. If the dimensions are correct proceed to step 4.
c. If the dimensions are incorrect contact the nearest manufacturer's representative for assistance.
4. Install the driver half coupling on the driver shaft (refer to Figure 5-5 on page 28 and Figure 12-1 on
page 58 for coupling illustrations).
a. Place the straight key into the keyway. Ensure that the key is up far enough to clear the circular
groove cut around the shaft, near the end. Hand press the key into groove.
b. Slide the driver half coupling onto the motor shaft far enough to insert the split circular thrust ring into
the shaft groove. The coupling must be a tight fit to the driver shaft but not interference fit.
c. Install split circular thrust ring in the shaft groove. When properly positioned the motor half coupling
will slide down over the split circular key and hold it in position (refer to Figure 5-5 on page 28).

• Lifting devices must be in good condition, certified, and tagged.
• Lifting devices of adequate capacity must be used whenever they are required.
• Personnel must never work under suspended loads.
DANGER
LIFTING POINT SAFETY
Check lifting lugs are in suitable condition for lifting, before lifting pump parts.
