Tighten the Conveyor Belt
Use the s-drive take-up roller bolts to set the belt tension.
1. Tighten the take-up roller bolts (1) until the take-up springs are not visible.
2. Measure to be sure both sides are set at the same position.
3. Tighten the pinch roller bolts (2, both sides of s-drive) until the head of bolt contacts the pinch pipe (3).
4. Check to make sure the bolts on the pinch roller bearings are just loose enough to allow the pinch roller to
kick back 1/4" during operation (when the belt seam passes through).
5. Re-attach the s-drive bottom guard.
