WARNING! Align non-spider type couplings by using a feeler When checking alignment, disconnect the gauge or taper gauge between the coupling power source to ensure that the pump will halves every 90 degrees. The coupling is in remain inoperative. alignment when the hubs are the same distance apart at all points. -
Page 14: V-Belt Drives
V-Belt Drives When using V-belt drives, the power source and the pump must be parallel. Use a straightedge along the sides of the pulleys to ensure that the pulleys are properly aligned (see Figure 6D). In drive systems using two or more belts, make certain that the belts are a matched set; unmatched sets will cause accelerated belt wear. -

Page 18: Bearing Temperature Check
BEARING TEMPERATURE CHECK Bearings normally run at higher than ambient temperatures because of heat generated by friction. Temperatures up to 160º F (71º C) are considered normal for bearings, and they can operate safely to at least 180º F (82º C). Checking bearing temperatures by hand is inaccurate. -
