INSTALLATION OF BASES
PRE-ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to applicable contract/assembly drawings to verify
that all parts are available prior to assembly.
Disassemble and thoroughly clean all parts of the pillow
block. The installer is the last person to inspect all parts for
fit, damage and cleanliness. Care MUST be taken to avoid
contaminating the internal surfaces of the bearing.
If clamp-on type
thrust collar is used,
remove jam screws
and back off set
screws so they do
not protrude into the
I.D. of the thrust
collar.
Remove
clamp screws and
make sure joints of
collar are clean.
If shaft is in place, one cooling pipe from lower liner half will
need to be removed to roll liner into place.
ATTENTION
If bearing is nonexpansion
(fixed)
type, check thrust
collar for burrs and
scratches.
Use
crocus cloth (NOT
emery
cloth
or
sandpaper)
to
smooth any scratches on thrust
collar faces.

ALIGNMENT
Check alignment of
pillow block by noting
clearance between
housing and shaft at
each end of the
housingclearance
should be uniform
within 1/32". Shim
bearing
pedestal
where
possible;
otherwise, use full
length shims under base as required. Alignment of pillow block
should be accurate since the self-aligning feature of the
bearing is to compensate for normal shaft deflection.
CAREFULLY
locate
liner
cap on liner
base. These
SLEEVOIL
liners
have
match-marks
permanently
stamped
at
the joint near
one
end.
These match marks permanently insure that parts stay
paired and critical orientation of assemblies is maintained.
Makes sure oil rings rotate freely. End faces of liner
should have no appreciable offset.

INSTALLATION OF GROMMETS
AND OIL GAUGE
Install grommet and
grommet plate over
coolant pipes.
Connect
circulating
oil
supply lines so
that each inlet
receives an equal
amount of oil. A
flow control valve
and oil
flow
indicator
are
recommended in
the inlet line. Oil flow must be adjusted to the rate
recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Connect
the drain lines. The drain piping should be vented and must
be of adequate size to remove the oil at the specified flow
rate. The housing drain must be directed straight down into
a return drain sloping away at a 15 or greater angle. The
oiling system should have a means of filtering the oil to
remove any contaminating particles. A 25 micronfilter or
better is recommended.
Oil level gauge may be located any distance from the pillow
block by use of a coupling and pipe of desired length. The
extended pipe must be supported so that it remains straight
and level with no offsets (use a spirit leveldo not guess).
Use pipe sealer on all
connections.
When pillow block is
arranged for circulating
oil, the oil level is
controlled by the drain
system and the oil level
gage is not needed.
OPTIONS
When pillow block is arranged for circulating oil, insert the 2
small pipe nipples thru the holes in the housing cap and screw
them tightly into the liner.
Check
construction
drawings to determine if
coolant (water or air) is to
be supplied to the
bearings. Do not connect
coolant pipes and bearing
unless
construction
drawings and/or equipment
instructions call for this. If
no
connection
is
required, pipes can be
left open.
