J&M SpeedTender LC290 Operator's Manual page 22

Conveyor belt must run in the center of the pulley at both the discharge end and the collapsible hopper end. Failure to do so will lead
to unnecessary wear and shortening of belt life. We recommend that you check your belt for proper tracking every 10 hours of use and
before every season.
Checking the belt tracking at collapsible hopper end:
1. Open clean out door located under collapsible hopper to see if the belt is centered on the pulley.
2. If the belt tracking is centered, close the clean out door. If tracking needs adjustment, "Adjusting Conveyor Belt Tracking" on the next
page.
Checking the belt tracking at discharge end:
1. Remove the 12 bolts located at the discharge end (as displayed in the diagram below).
2. Remove the discharge pan and rubber discharge pan to see if the belt is centered on the pulley.
3. If the belt tracking is centered, reinstall the head pan. If tracking needs adjustment, see "Adjusting Conveyor Belt Tracking" on the
next page.
