    Mounting The GLH8L-400 and GLH8L-462 series pumps are designed for horizontal foot mounting. The pump case (001) has four feet; the two inboard feet are each drilled to receive two tie-down or mounting bolts. The rear or outboard feet are each drilled to receive one bolt each. The double bolting on the inboard or front end is designed to provide rigid location of the pump front end.
