Gusher Pumps Pump CL5×6

Installation — Impeller Adjustment

Ensure the following parts are disconnected or loosened

Lightly tap shaft (#1) until impeller bottoms on the intake flange

Tighten three adjusting screws by hand until they touch ball bearing housing

Tighten three adjusting screws just up to the point where the shaft turns freely; then tighten each screw an additional ¼ turn

Secure the following components

Rotate coupling by hand to ensure impeller does not rub intake flange

If impeller rubs, repeat steps 1 through 8

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 any observations about the initial startup conditions

Confirm that the pump is operating normally after approximately 150 hours of service

Apply mounting force against the ring being press-fitted

Avoid forcing the bearing onto a shaft by pressure or hammer blows

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

Ensure the shaft is pressed through the bearing until seated firmly against the shaft shoulder

Support the shaft beneath the arbor press table if not too long

Use clean, square-ended soft metal tubing for pressing

Ensure the shaft is aligned with the arbor press ram

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

Ensure pump is shut down before lubrication

Verify no mixing of grease types

Was the initial fill grease purged if using a different grease?

Check that bearings do not exceed 225°F
