Doweling the pump casing

You must dowel the pump casing to the baseplate pedestals in order to maintain the proper
pump position. There are two methods for doweling the pump casing, depending on whether
the pump is used in a cold application or a hot application.
Use this table to determine whether hot doweling is required.
