Acoem USA technical trainer James Otremba walks us through the pre-alignment steps. Performing these steps before any and every alignment (regardless of what tool you are using) will lay the groundwork for a successful precision shaft alignment. Below are the chapters for this video which include the four essential pre-alignment steps: 00:00 - Intro/Overview 00:50 - Step 1: Rough Alignment 02:00 - Step 2: Elimination of Obvious Soft Foot 02:57 - Step 3: Bolt Tightening 04:01 - Step 4: Final Soft Foot Check Before beginning this process, always remember to lockout the machine and take appropriate safety precautions.
