Gusher Pumps Pump 2×2.5

Record the location of the pressure gauge in relation to the liquid level

Verify if the mounting plate height is at least 1" above the highest possible liquid level

Check if the liquid level is at least 2" above the point at which the shaft exits the top of the pump end

Test shaft rotation for clockwise direction

INSTALLATION — Coupling Alignment (Chair Mounted Model ONLY)

Adjust Coupling Alignment if Necessary

Adjust Lateral Parallel Misalignment

Adjust Horizontal Parallel Misalignment

Adjust Lateral Angular Misalignment

Adjust Horizontal Angular Misalignment

Final Adjustment if Alignment Cannot be Achieved

Apply mounting force against the ring being press-fitted

Ensure no pressure or hammer blows are applied to the other ring

Use an arbor press with a face block contacting only the bearing inner ring

Press the shaft through the bearing until seated firmly against the shaft shoulder

Ensure the tubing is clean and slightly greater in diameter than the bearing journal

Ensure the tubing end is square and contacts only the bearing inner ring

Align the shaft with the ram of the arbor press to avoid cocking

MAINTENANCE — Lubrication / START UP

Measure the temperature of the ball bearings using a pyrometer

Is the temperature of the ball bearings below 225°F?

Record observations about the bearing temperature and any unusual conditions during startup

Confirm that the pump operates normally after approximately 150 hours of service

Remove relief from back of ball bearing housing

Fill with grease until fresh grease flows from opening

If automatic lubrication system is being used, place reliefs in the tapped hole (1/8" N.P.T.)

Check that all safety precautions are followed
