mounting bracket. NOTE: the pump is offset to one direction, the pump should be installed
with the offset side on top. Install hardware for securing pump to the pump mount, DO NOT
tighten.
Install pump and align so that splined coupling can be moved (FREE PLAY) back and
forth by hand. Rotate coupler and check free play every 1/4 turn. Tighten pump mounting
bolts in succession rechecking for spline coupling free play. Remove the pump mounting
