Foot mounting

Note
Only authorized retrofit partners must be employed to relocate the bolted-on mounting feet at
the machine enclosure.
After attaching the mounting feet, you must note the following in order to avoid stressing and
deforming the machine.
• Ensure that the foot mounting surfaces are aligned in one plane and are parallel to the
machine shaft.
• Post-machine the foot mounting surfaces or use thin shims, for example.
• Professionally touch up damaged painted surfaces.
• Observe the information provided in Chapter Aligning and mounting (Page 54)
5.5 Aligning and fixing the machine
Observe the following when aligning and mounting:
• Ensure a flat and uniform contact surface for foot and flange mounting.
• When mounting on the wall, support the machine from below, e.g. using a bracket, or bolt
it.
• Precisely align the machine when couplings are used.
• Ensure that the mounting surfaces are clean and free of any dirt.
• Remove any anti-corrosion protection using white spirit.
• Avoid installation-related resonances with the rotating frequency and twice the line
frequency.
• Note any unusual noise when the rotor is manually turned.
• Check the direction of rotation with the motor uncoupled.
