Pump and shaft alignment check
– Long-
coupled
After connecting the piping, rotate the pump drive 
shaft clockwise (viewed from motor end) by hand 
several complete revolutions to be sure there is no 
binding and that all parts are free. Recheck shaft 
alignment (see section 4.5). If piping caused unit to 
be out of alignment, correct piping to relieve strain on 
the pump.
