Fastener and Fitting Inspection

 

All system fasteners should be checked prior to pump operation, and occasionally during use. This
would include:

 

 The mix chamber tie-rods
 Motor mounting bolts
 Hardware that secures the pipe clamps to the frame
 All piping unions and connection points

 

 

Most hardware can be checked simply to ensure it is not loose. However, utilize the following values
when checking the mix chamber hardware:
