Finish Thompson M5V 102972 & under - Manual (Page 6)

INSTALLATION
1. Unpack motor from carton. Check for shipping damage. If damage is detected, save the packaging and notify the
carrier immediately.
2. Loosen the nut on the motor housing by turning it counterclockwise (as viewed from the bottom of the motor). Note
that the nut remains on the motor even when loosened. See figure 1.
3. Looking into the bottom/drive-end of the motor, align the coupling half with the coupling half orientation of the pump.
Aligning the coupling half with two of the slots in the motor adapter sleeve is recommended to provide a reference
point. See figures 2 & 3.
4. Make sure that the rubber coupling insert (provided with the pump) is properly installed in the pump coupling half.
5. With the motor coupling half properly aligned, firmly push the motor down over the pump head until fully engaged.
See figure 3.
6. The motor isn’t fully coupled unless the bottom of the motor and the top of the pump are completely flush. See
figure 4.
Warning: Do not position the motor handle and cord over and in front of the pump discharge. Position it in line with
the discharge or at 90 ° to the discharge.
7. Manually tighten the nut by turning it clockwise until secure. See figure 5.
Note: Do not use hand tools to tighten the nut as this may cause damage to the motor casing.
