• Racked Sections
It is important that each bed section be checked for an out-of-square condi-
tion and squared prior to being set in place. If conveyor is not square, track-
ing problems will result. Figure 5A indicates a racked section.
TO CORRECT AN OUT-OF-SQUARE SECTION
1. Locate points on corners of section and measure distance "A" & "B". If the
dimensions are not equal, the section will need to be squared. (Figure 5B).
2. Use crossbracing supplied on underside of conveyor to square each sec-
tion. Adjust turnbuckle until Dimensions "A" & "B" are equal.
3. After all bed sections have been checked and corrected for "racked condi-
tion", tighten all butt couplings and pivot
plate bolts.
4. Make final check to see that all con-
veyor sections are level across width
and length. If entire conveyor is level,
supports can be lagged to floor.
IMPORTANT!
Being out of level across width of conveyor
can cause package drift on long conveyor
lines, and will cause belt to not track prop-
erly.
"Racked" conveyor sections will cause
package to travel toward side of conveyor.
• Belt Installation
INSTALLING THE BELT
The conveyor belt has been cut to the proper length
and lacing installed at the factory. The belt should
be installed with the brushed side down toward the
pressure rollers and the polyurethane coated side up
toward the tread rollers. To install follow these steps:
1.Remove tread rollers as necessary in order to
thread belt through conveyor as shown in Figure 5C.
Pull ends together and insert lacing pin (Figure 5D). If
belt ends cannot be pulled together by hand, loosen
take-up pulley in center drive and/or use a belt puller
so lacing pin can be inserted.
2. Adjust belt tension with take-up pulley. Keep pulley
square by moving both take-up bolts an equal amount.
Maintain enough tension so drive pulley will not slip
when carrying the rated load.
3. Track belt per instructions on Page 6 & 7.

CAUTION! Excessive slippage will reduce belt life and
damage drive pulley lagging. Never apply more tension
than is needed. Over-tension will cause extra wear to
belt and bearings and will require extra power from drive.

NOTE: If belt ends cannot be pulled together by hand,
it may be necessary to loosen take-ups (at tail pulley,
etc.), minimum position or use a belt puller so lacing
pin can be easily inserted.

NOTE: Tread roller axles are spring loaded on one
end. Rollers may be removed by using tool such as
a screwdriver to push on the "soft" end of the axle or
pliers to pull on opposite end of the axle.
