4. Repeat the previous steps until the permitted reading value is achieved.
Perform parallel alignment for a horizontal correction
A unit is in parallel alignment when the parallel indicator (P) does not vary by more than
0.002 in. (0.05 mm) as measured at four points 90° apart at the operating temperature.
1. Set the parallel alignment indicator (P) to zero on the left side of the driver coupling half (Y),
90° from the top-center position (9 o’clock).
2. Rotate the indicator through the top-center position to the right side, 180° from the start
position (3 o’clock).
3. Record the indicator reading.
When the reading value is... Then...
Negative The driver coupling half (Y) is to the left of the
pump coupling half (X).
Positive The driver coupling half (Y) is to the right of the
pump coupling half (X).
4. Slide the driver carefully in the appropriate direction.
