Disassembled Couplings
1. Shut down machine.
2. With machine hot, quickly disassemble couplings.
3. Check angular and parallel alignment in plan and elevation as described in the Near Final
Alignment section. Record the indicator readings (see Initial Start-Up Checklist ) and make
necessary adjustments to bring alignment within .002 TIR and .00033 inches per in. of
coupling face traverse (or in. of indicator swing). Follow procedures described in the Near
Final Alignment section.
4. Reinstall couplings and run machine until it again reaches operating temperature.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 until alignment remains within specified tolerances.
