Series 400 IOM Manual

Series 400 Vari-Angle Mixers

1. Remove blank coverplate from tank manway and check mixer coverplate for correct size, hole location and orientation.
2. Mount propeller on shaft if manway is large enough for propeller to roll through.
3. Install gasket and bolt mixer with coverplate to manway.
   Mixer shaft must be horizontal when mixer is bolted to manway. Due to light weight and short overhang, no additional support is necessary.
4. Remove all belt guards.
5. On units with factory mounted motors, the installation is now complete except for belt tension check and alignment as described in the Maintenance tab.
6. On units where the motor is shipped separately, mount the motor on the base plate and loosely position the drive pulley on the motor shaft. Install belts and check alignment and belt tension.
7. Re-install all belt guards.

If Customer Supplies Coverplate

1. Before blank coverplate is removed from tank manway, scribe a vertical centerline from top to bottom of coverplate.
2. Remove blank coverplate and burn hole on vertical centerline for nozzle per the table below.

Allow at least 8 inches clearance between tip of propeller and tank bottom. Nozzle may be mounted as low on plate as welding of nozzle and gussets permits, keeping propeller clearance in mind.
