Installation steps

Device without mounting bracket
1. Measure the distance between the inside of the conveyor stringers, and then cut the
24 mm (1 inch) cross bar to the measured length.
2. Orient the return belt speed sensor. See RBSS without mounting bracket (Page 9).
3. Slide the cross bar through the hole on the end of the return belt speed sensor, and then
slide one 24 mm (1 inch) washer onto either end of the cross bar.
4. Position the assembly so the sensor wheel rides in the middle of the return belt.
5. Make sure there is 3 mm (1/8 inch) clearance between the sides of the sensor and the
washers, and then tack-weld the washers to the cross bar.
6. Tack-weld one end of the cross bar to one stringer.
7. Square the entire assembly with the return belt so the wheel will ride straight.
8. Tack-weld the other end of the cross bar to the opposite stringer, making sure the
assembly remains square with the belt.
9. Run the belt to check that the wheel is riding straight on the belt and is not pulling to
either side. If necessary, break one weld and pivot the entire assembly until the wheel
runs true.
