Safety information The owner of the transport equipment is responsible for these assembly instructions always being available to the fitters, electricians, maintenance technicians and engineering technicians concerned. Incorrect assembly and/or operation may lead to personal injury or damage to the conveyor equipment and/or other equipment. It can also cause malfunctions or a reduction in capacity.
WARNING! • Stop the machinery and turn off electric power before attempting any type of assembly, electrical connection or maintenance work. • Do not start the machinery without the lid, hatches, covers, guards and connections fitted in such a way they can only be opened with tools.
Safety decals WARNING! The machine is supplied with safety decals on delivery. They must not be removed or defaced. If a safety decal becomes damaged, you can order a new one free of charge from Skandia Elevator AB. Specify the part number of the decal.

Before assembly The conveyor can be assembled directly in place in the installation or separately and then lifted in place. The design and space requirements of the installation and the length of the conveyor will determine which method is most suitable. IMPORTANT! •...
Lay out the machine parts in the order they are to be assembled. Remove the lid plates. The illustration shows a machine with self-regulating feeding via an inlet in the intermediate sections with raised lid. Inclination of horizontal conveyor The capacity of a horizontal conveyor will be reduced if it is assembled at an inclination exceeding 5°.
Connection of the machine WARNING! Connections to, from and between machinery must be permanently mounted and fully enclosed. If the design of the installation does not allow this at an outlet, finish off with a 1 m pipe. Assemble the inlet/outlet as instructed in the section "Assemble the machine".
Inlet in raised lid with intermediate tray Inlets of this type are self-regulating and are used for feeding from silo or storage bin. IMPORTANT! Fit a raised lid displaced 400 mm towards the tail end. Inlets of this type can be positioned to illustrated dimensions. Min.

Assemble the lengths of chain in the bottom of the conveyor. NB! The chain brackets "push" the flights against the drive. IMPORTANT! Distribute any lengths of brush flight/bucket flight evenly along the conveyor chain. Assemble the chain lengths on the upper level of the conveyor. Assemble the conveyor chain over the drive's chain sprocket.

Tighten the conveyor chain with the tensioning bolts in the tail end. NB! The tensioning bolts have self-locking fixed nuts inside the conveyor. IMPORTANT! •Ensure the tail end shaft is at right angles to the conveyor chain. • Ensure the conveyor chain is not tensioned too much. Check the tension of the conveyor chain by pressing it down between the two return rollers.

The following applies if the conveyor does not have intermediate sections with tensioning pulleys: The conveyor chain is too taut if it cannot be pulled sideways at the tail end shaft. Release the tension until it can be pulled slightly sideways. Once assembly of the conveyor is complete, test run it for a while and then check the tension once again.

NB! Fit inlet/outlet with existing bolts. The following applies to inlets: Mark the edges of the inlet on the lid. Add 30 mm inwards to each marking and cut there. Deburr the edges. Fit the inlet after the lid has been assembled. The following applies to inlet in raised lid: IMPORTANT! Fit a raised lid displaced 400 mm towards the tail end.
