Goulds Pumps 3100 - IOM - Manual (Page 22)

LEVEL BASEPLATE
1. Place 2 sets of wedges or shims on the
foundation, one set on each side of every
foundation bolts. The wedges should extend .75
in. (20 mm) to 1.5 in. (40 mm) above the
foundation, to allow for adequate grouting (Fig.
5 and Fig. 6). This will provide even support for
the baseplate once it is grouted.
2. Remove water and/or debris from anchor bolt
holes/sleeves prior to grouting. If the sleeve
type bolts are being used, fill the sleeves with
rags to prevent grout from entering.
3. Carefully lower baseplate onto foundation bolts.
4. Level baseplate to within .125 in. (3 mm) over
the length of the base and .062 in. (1.5 mm)
over the width of the base by adjusting shims or
wedges.
5. Hand tighten bolts.
