4.2.1 Preparation
• Prepare the workspace in which the pump is to be built, ensuring there is a clean and level
work surface with sufficient room for not only the pump, but also to allow you sufficient access
to the pump and fit pipe work, etc
• Carefully open the packaging and check for completeness by ensuring all the parts listed are
present (see the exploded view drawings and parts list at the back of this manual); remove all
the loose components and set them out on a workbench. It is recommended that the
fastener kit is sorted into piles of like items and kept in a safe place to avoid losing parts or
using an incorrect part
• If the pump casing or any parts are found to be damaged / wrong spec or missing, then you
should record the appropriate serial number from the casing ident. plate and/ or the quality
check seal on the packaging, and inform VERDER Ltd
4.2.2 Close/Long Coupled Pump Unit Assembly
• Carefully disassemble the box sides to leave a pallet, on which the pump should be
assembled ready for onward transport
• Fit the lifting eye to the pump housing and lift until it is supported in the vertical position
• Completely remove 3 of the four bolts (VF10 - VF40) or nuts from the studs (VF50 - VF80)
leaving the 1 remaining nut or bolt loosely in place to retain the front cover in position
