2. Receiving the product

2.1 Inspecting the product

The pump is delivered from the factory in a crate or a
wooden box specially designed for transport by a
forklift truck or a similar vehicle.
Upon receipt, check the pump visually to determine
whether any damage has happened to it during
transport or handling.
Check especially for these points:
1. broken or cracked equipment, including base
frame, motor or pump feet and flanges
2. broken motor fan cover, bent eyebolts or
damaged terminal box
3. missing parts.
Parts or accessories are sometimes wrapped
individually or fastened to the equipment.
If any damage or losses have occurred, notify
Grundfos' representative and the carrier's agent at
once.
Bolts for LSV bare-shaft pumps have US
threads for which inch tools are required.
Bolts for coupling guard and for mounting
of pump and motor on the base frame
have metric threads.
