Xylem 8100 Series Centrifugal Pumps AC2515 REV.C - Manual (Page 6)

Using ANSI/OSHA Standard “S” hooks,
place the “S” hooks in the holes provided
in the four corners of the base. Be sure
the points of the hooks do not touch the
bottom of the pump base. Attach nylon
slings, chains, or wire rope to the “S”
hooks. Size the equipment for the load,
and so the lift angle will be less than 45°
from the vertical.
Bases supplied without lifting holes:
Place one sling around the outboard
bearing housing. Place the remaining sling
around the back end of the motor as close
to the mounting feet as possible. Make
sure the sling does not damage the
housing cover or conduit box.
Join the free ends of the slings together
and place over the lifting hook. Use
extreme care when positioning sling under
the motor so it cannot slip off (See
Figure 5).

property damage.
Place nylon sling, chain or wire rope
around both flanges. Use a latch hook or
standard shackle and end loops.
Be sure the lifting equipment is of
sufficient length to keep the lift angle less
than 30° from the vertical (See Figure 6).

Install eyebolts in the three holes provided
at the top of the support, being sure to
