9.1 Installation
The pump must be installed in a horizontal position using the M12x1.5 threaded support feet.
Tighten the screws with a torque of 80 Nm (59 Ft-Lb)
The base must be perfectly flat and rigid enough as not to allow bending or misalignment on the pump coupling and
axis/transmission due to torque transmitted during operation.
The unit cannot be fixed ridgedly to the floor. For special applications contact the Customer Service Department.
A lifting bracket is mounted on the pump for easy installation, as per the figure below.
Replace the oil filling hole closing service plug (red) positioned on the rear casing cover with the
plug with oil dipstick. Check the correct quantity.
The dipstick must always be reachable, even when the unit is assembled.
