INSTALLATION
LOCATION
Install the blower in a well lit, clean dry place with plenty of room for inspection and maintenance.
FOUNDATIONS
For permanent installation we recommend concrete foundations be provided, and the equipment should be
grouted to the concrete. It is necessary that a suitable base be used, such as a steel combination base under
blower and motor, or a separate sole plate under each. Before grouting, equipment must be leveled, free of all
stains, and anchored so no movement will occur during setting of grout. After grout has completely hardened, a
recheck is necessary to compensate for shrinkage, etc. If required, add shims under blower feet after final
tightening of foundation anchor bolts to remove strain from the blower housing.
Where jack screws or wedges are used during grouting, they must be backed off and wedges removed before
final tightening of anchor bolts. Refer to grouting instructions.
Where a concrete foundation is not feasible, care must be taken to insure that equipment is firmly anchored to
adequate structural members, restricting movement and vibration.
MOUNTING CONFIGURATIONS
The blower flex-mount design enables horizontal and vertical mounting configurations with top or bottom hand,
right or left hand shaft positioning. The units are center timed allowing rotation in either direction
(refer to Figure 2-1). If converting a blower from vertical to horizontal, or horizontal to vertical mounting
configuration, additional mounting feet will be required.
REPOSITIONING THE MOUNTING FEET.
1. Position the mounting feet to the desired location and snug the capscrew.
2. Place the blower on its feet on a flat surface.
3. Loosen mounting feet capscrews and level unit up. The bench or blower base flatness should be within
.002 of an inch.
NOTICE
If the unit is not flat within .002 of an inch, it will be necessary to shim the blower feet at installation.
