Martin Engineering M3699-03/16
Maintenance inspections should be performed weekly until a
maintenance schedule can be determined. Certain
applications and/or changing material conditions may require
more frequent maintenance inspections.
Before installing, servicing, or adjusting the belt cleaner, turn
off and lockout / tagout / blockout / testout all energy sources
to the conveyor and conveyor accessories according to ANSI
standards. Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
1. Inspect the condition of the cleaner. Open the inspection door (if fitted)
and observe the condition and action of the blades and cleaner.
2. Remove any material buildup from the blades or mainframe.
Do not reach into the chute while the conveyor is running.
3. If necessary, adjust the cleaner tension. Refer to appropriate section for
tensioner used.
4. Make sure all fasteners are tight. Tighten if necessary.
5. Check blades for wear. If blades are worn to wear line, replace blades.
6. Wipe warning labels clean. If labels are not readable, contact Martin
Engineering or a representative for replacements.
1. Shut down and lockout / tagout / blockout / testout conveyor.
2. Undo tensioner and visually inspect blades.
a. If blades are clean and not excessively worn, re-tension cleaner.
b. If material buildup is still present or blades are worn excessively,
proceed.
3. When fully retracted, simply remove the retaining pin securing the blade
cartridge to the operator end of the mainframe mandrel. Grasp the handle
and pull the blade cartridge off the mandrel and away from the mount
bracket. Completely remove the blade cartridge from the mainframe
mandrel and place it in a suitable position for maintenance work to be
carried out.
4. Clean and inspect the blades. If blades are excessively worn, replace with
new blades. Remove the blades from the cartridge by removing one of the
end stops and loosening the split track. Slide the blades out of the
cartridge and replace by sliding in new blades. Ensure the blades face in
the correct direction. Re-fit the end stop.
5. Re-install blade cartridge onto the cleaner mainframe mandrel and re-fit
the securing pin at the operator side. Re-tension the cleaner.
