2. Install foundation bolts and pour soft concrete to the required depth

below the skid base frame.

3. After the concrete has hardened, set the skid unit in place and level the

unit using the appropriate shims.

4. Tighten the foundation bolts.

INOTICE !

CARE MUST BE TAKEN TO ELIMINATE ANY STRAIN ON THE SKID FRAME

DUE TO AN UNEVEN FOUNDATION. ADD SHIMS ACCORDINGLY. NEVER

TIGHTEN FOUNDATION BOLTS THAT ALLOW THE FRAME, THUS PUMP AND

ENGINE, TO BE TORQUED OUT OF ALIGNMENT.

IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT NOT TO SUBJECT THE MANIFOLD, IF EQUIPPED,

TO UNDUE WEIGHT AND/OR VIBRATION, WHICH COULD RESULT IN

BREAKAGE OR LEAKAGE.

6.3 PLUMBING, SKID AND TRAILER

❑ Use flexible piping between the pipe line and the pump suction and dis-

charge lines. NEVER use solid piping for direct connections.

❑ If flexible couplings are used, follow the installation instructions furnished

with the coupling. Certain flexible connections are subject to elongation

under pressure and cause considerable strain to the pump.

❑ Using short elbows should be restricted as much as possible. If a bend is

required, especially in the suction line, it should be a long sweeping bend

and should be placed as far away from the pump as practicable.

SHORT suction lines and LOW lifts are always desirable.
