Problem

Problem Cause

Remedy

Cannot obtain horizontal (Side-to-Side)
alignment, angular or parallel

Driver feet bolt bound.

Loosen pump hold down bolts and slide pump
and driver until horizontal alignment is
achieved.

Baseplate not leveled properly, probably
twisted.

Determine which corner(s) of the baseplate are
high or low and remove or add shims at the
appropriate corner(s) and realign.
