Dear All,
Could you please explain how can I align my motor and pump using ONE dial gauge only?
How to identify the shims thickness based on the values given by the gauge?
I fount in the internet many procudures, but all are using 2 dial gauges and no one is showing how to identify the required shims thickness.
It's extreamly urgent.
thank you in advance.
Walid

Type "dial indicator for shaft alignment" into "search" seems to be a lot of information there -
