1 Introduction
1.1 Purpose
The installation and maintenance manual (IOM) explains how to install and maintain the Flowserve Limitorque WG operator. Information on installation, disassembly, reassembly, lubrication and spare parts is provided.
1.2 User Safety
Safety notices in this manual detail precautions the user must take to reduce the risk of personal injury and damage to the equipment. The user must read and be familiar with these instructions before attempting installation, operation or maintenance. Failure to observe these precautions could result in serious bodily injury, damage to the equipment, voiding of the warranty, or operational difficulty.
Safety notice is presented in this manual in three forms:
cWARNING: Refers to personal safety. Alerts the user to potential danger. Failure to follow warning notices could result in personal injury or death.
aCAUTION: Directs the user’s attention to general precautions that, if not followed, could result in personal injury and/or equipment damage.
NOTE: Highlights information critical to the user’s understanding of the operator’s installation and operation.

2.1 Initial Inspection and Storage Instructions
c WARNING: Read this installation and maintenance manual carefully and completely before attempting to store the operator. If an electric actuator is attached to the WG manual operator, be aware of the electrical hazards. Consult the electric actuator installation and maintenance manual for guidance.
2.2 Inspection and Recording
Upon receipt of the operator, inspect the condition of the equipment, and record nameplate information.
1.Carefully remove operator from shipping carton or skid. Thoroughly examine the equipment for any physical damage that may have occurred during shipment. If damaged, immediately report the damage to the transport company.
2.A nameplate is attached to each operator with the following information:
•Operator size
•Assembly position
•Order number
•Serial number
•Customer tagging
Record this information for future reference, e.g., ordering parts, or obtaining further information.
2.3 Storage Procedure
NOTE: The following is the recommended storage procedure to retain maximum product integrity during storage. Failure to comply with recommended procedure will void the warranty.
Storage (less than one year)
Store operators on wooden skids to protect the machined mounting flange. Place the wooden skids containing the operators in a clean, dry, protected warehouse. If the operators must be stored outside, they must be covered in polyethylene protection with silica gel crystals to absorb moisture. If an electric actuator is attached to the WG, refer to the storage procedures in its respective manual for appropriate storage procedures. Rotate input shafts every three months to mix the lubricant.

2.4General Mounting Instructions
aCAUTION: To avoid the potential for disengaging the worm gear segment, ensure that the pointer cap pointer is oriented to the mid-point of the 90º valve travel. Full stroke rotation of the quadrant should not move the pointer past the corresponding Open or Close ID marks on the housing cover.
The mounting instructions for the WG series worm gearboxes are outlined below. The WG-00 through WG-35 gearboxes are designed with a bottom entry splined adapter. The WG-04 through WG-12 gearboxes are designed with a top entry splined adapter. A separate set of instructions for each design is provided. See Section 2.4.1 for the WG-00 through WG-35 and Section 2.4.2 for the WG-04 through WG-12.
2.4.1 WG-00 through WG-35
1. Place the valve disk in the full closed position.
Note: If the Splined Adapter is already installed in the operator, go to step 6.
2.Remove the Pointer Cap (see Section 4 for removal instructions).
3.Turn the gearbox upside down so that the bottom of the housing is accessible.
4.Remove the Retaining Ring, and install the Splined Adapter.
Note: The notch in the Worm Gear at the Closed position must be aligned with the keyway in the Splined Adapter.
5.Reinstall the Retaining Ring.
6.Place the gearbox in the upright position so that the top of the gearbox is accessible.
7.Mount the operator on the valve and bolt securely.
8.Rotate the input shaft to align the keyway of the Splined Adapter with the keyway of the Valve Shaft and install the key.
9.Confirm that the gearbox Stop Screws are properly set for valve disk travel in both the Open and Close directions of travel. See Section 2.6.
10.Reinstall the Pointer Cap.
