Coupling and shaft alignment should be checked periodically due to foundation settling,
equipment shifting, etc. Alignment should be re-checked after the first several hours of
operation.
6. Install the disc pack between the hubs. Three bolts connect the disc pack to each hub (6 bolts
total). Insert the bolts thru the 3 holes of each hub and tighten the locknuts per the Table 1
tightening torque specifications. Tighten the locknuts of one hub, then those of the other hub to
approximately ½ the stated torque value. Next repeat the process but tightening to the full
torque value. It is also recommended to apply torque on the locknut, not the bolt. Re-check
and tighten all fasteners after several hours of operation to ensure proper tightening.
*Caution: Rotating equipment is potentially dangerous and should be properly guarded.
The user should follow all applicable safety codes and provide a suitable guard.
