Before performing any service function, be certain thet the unit
js separated from its power source or the power source it locked-out
to prevent any form of energy from entering the equipment t
would include electrical or mechanical energy into or from the
Prime mover (s), electrical energy to the lubricating pump, charging
Pump, flushing pump, etc, as well as hydraulic energy from the dis

When other than routine servicing is necessary, it can be most effi
‘ently performed IT the unit is removed to an area of adequate space
where an overhead crane or hydraulic lift, hydraulic press, beating
pullers, impact tools, etc. are accessible.
Exercise safety in all performances, do not ignore any cautions, use
only approved methods, matetials and tools. Do not permit eny fune-

‘and servicing of this equipment. However, unusual or extreme
clrcumstences may atise and these must be referred to the manufac
turer. The manufacturer will, upon request and contact, provide
trained, experienced personnel to assist you in the maintenance
and servicing of this machinery.

Designed for heavy duty service, this pump is @ 9 inch stroke, horizon
tal, single acting triplex pump with a maximum rated horsepower
of 850 at 160 rpm. Weight is 16,000 Ka.
The use of moder high strength steels and latest techniques in
fabrication plus long experience in pump design, menutactrue and
‘essembly have resulted In a product unexcelled in the industry. The
extrome volume-pressure capablities of this pump are developed in
fan all welded steel! power frame. Double row spherical self-aligning
roller bearings support both eranlahaft and pinion shaft. Straight
roller bearings are employed in the connecting rods at crank and
‘crosshead ends. Crossheads are cast ductile iron, operating in tenew=
fable shim adjustable guides.
‘The connecting rads are two-piece design which permits seperate
Installation of connecting rods into pump end in-frame assembly
fof connecting rods to crankshaft.
‘The dual lubrication system is designed to provide constant trouble
free operation. The cascade oiling system will temporarily provide
lubrication even in the event of oll pump failure. An independently
driven oll pump Is recommended and is required when the pump
Is operated under 50 rpm.
‘The three fully Interchangeable and individually replaceable "L"
shaped fluid cylinders afford easy maintenance. For time saving
fend convenience, the piston rods and threaded two-piece construc
tion, which quickly disassemble to facilitate removal of piston without
disturbing the liner.
Valves and valve seats gre removed and replaced thru individual
Valve covers. This pump incorporates all features contributing to
low cost, trouble-free maintenance.
‘The basic pump is comprised of a power-end and « fluid-end mounted
fon short steel skids. The power-end contains the shaft assemblies,
‘connecting rods, dlaphragms, etc. The fluid-end contains the fluid
‘chambers, suction manifold, discharge manifold, valves, seats, pistons,
liners, ete.
‘The lubricetion system with its provisions for filtration and cooling;
the liner flushing system with Its circulation unit, the features of
{8 piston rod.back-up tool, the mechenical turning device, etc. are
all added to the basic unit to compose the standard unit as outlined
Jn this publication.
‘The laterality of the unit i, es reflected here, determined by standing
fat the power-end end looking toward the fluid-end-reterence is
made to the left hend side and the right hand side. The fluid chambers
‘also designeted from this same position-the No. 1 fluid chamber

With the pump and prime mover on the skid oF foundation, use a straight-edge or chalk line to determine the relative
position of these two components. When close elignment is achieved, install the belts or chain and adjust for proper tension
then reposition the prime mover to obtain full surface contact between the straight-edge ot chalk line and the sheaves ot
sprockets at points (A), (B), (C) and (0). Retain this alignment and readjust the belts ot chain far tension. Secure the compo-

1. It is most important thet the pump be accurately aligned
with the prime mover. Fig on page 12 will guide you in
the alignment if V-belt or chain drives are provided.
UF flexible couplings are used, follow the alignment
recommended by the coupling manufacturer.
When alignment is achieved it should be reinforced
by shear blocks or dowel pins.
PUMP SUCTION

SHEAR BLOCKS
‘AL GENERAL
Machinery items are generally mounted on machined pads, "H!" beams or bed-plates and retained with capscrews ot
hhold-down bolts. The flexing of loaded machinery will cause these capscrews or hold-down bolts to become loose
land ineffective for the retention of alignment of the machine with its associated equipment. When the equipment
Is being made ready for operations it should be carefully aligned, secured with the capscrews or hold-down bolts

fA film of lubricant must
be provided with sufficient strength to withstand localized contact pressures at all points of moving,
contact to prevent accelerated wear of the moving patts. The basic principle in the selection of lubricants,
Is to choose the least viscous that will retain a fllm coverage and withstand the loading of the moving
parts.
When filling the ctankease, remove the inspection door from the crankcase cover and introduce at least
20% of the lubricant into the crankcase cover oil trough and scraper trough adjacent to the main gear.
Oil may be added to the crankcase by removing the alt breather and pouring the oil through that opening.
In the initial filing of the crankcase with lubricating oll and when the oil is being changed, it is suggested
that the crankcase cover be removed and the interior of the pump be cleaned and inspected. At the
seme time, drain ond clean the sludge trap, clean the oil strainer, clean the air breather, and (when
changing oil) change the filter cartridge and clean the magnetic filter. f the oil was contaminated
with foreign material, ke. sand, dirt, metal cuttings or chips, paint, light hydrocarbons, pumped product,
etc fill the crankcase with a non-toxic, non-explosive solvent, install @ new filter cartridge and use
‘an external drive for the lubricating oil pump to circulate the solvent for a minimum of five minutes.
It the pump is equipped with an electric motor dtiven oil pump, use this to circulate the solvent, if the
cil pump is driven from the jackshaft, remove the v-belt and use an electric or pneumatic drill (or similar
Gevice) to activate the oil pump to cicculate the solvent without rotating the shaft assemblies or moving
the reciprocating parts.
After circulating the solvent, remove the ctankcase cover, drain the solvent, inspect and clean the
intetior of the pump, change the filter cattridge, drain and clean the sludge trap, clean the oil strainer
‘and clean the magnetic filter. Replace the crankcase cover and fill the crankcase with 20-W or 30-W

MAINTENANCE,
GENERAL
The requirement for @ maintenance program can-
not be over emphasized. This equipment represents
‘considerable investment and its function is necessary
te your operations. Neglect is costly and will result
in premature failures, early retirement of worn equip-
ment and the junking of unusable machinery.
‘The installation of a maintenance program with positive
execution will reward your operations economicelly
byt
2. Reduce quantity of required repair and replacement
parts.
3. Provide for longer periods of service-free operat
Extend the life of your equipment.
PROVISIONS FOR MAINTENANCE
It is strongly recommended that all pumping operations
bbe supported with stand-by capacity and by 8 spare
parts inventory. The percentage of stand-by capacity
needed to sustain operations is determined by the
operator and the quantity of spare parts in his inventory
is usually dictated by use patterns. Spare parts should
be maintained in inventory to be immediately available
at the point of operations.
© SUGGESTED MINIMUM PROGRAMME
1, The following represents @ suggested MINIMUM
equirement for maintenance. It is designed for

Inspection and adjustment, it does not
preclude the necessity of immediate attention
to items or elements which become maladjusted

MAINTENANCE
This sisting of cbservations mggested tobe considered when performing maintenance on standard pump Each operating company
