SECTION 1 - SAFETY Belt TRACKER is designed to be quickly and easily serviced by appropriate personnel. Under no circumstances should servicing or installation of the Belt tracker be carried out whilst the belt is in operation. The conveyor must be shut down and locked out before any person enters or reaches into the conveyor enclosure.
A steering roller must be supplied by the client. Typically the roller removed from the system will suffice. For greater efficiency of the BELT TRACKER, ESS recommends the steering roller be coated with a rubber lagging. ALTERNATE TRACKING SYSTEMS For conveying systems that reverse or have substantial roll back the SMART BELT TRACKER is available.
SECTION 3 - PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION – Ensure that you have the correct drawings and 1. CHECK INSTALLATION DRAWINGS equipment for your conveyor/s. – Do this in your workshop or 2. PRE-ASSEMBLE THE BELT TRACKERS AND MOUNTS similar area, rather than at the conveyor. This will enable you to: (a) Verify all required equipment is present.
SECTION 4 – INSTALLATION Lower Belt Tracker Locate the lower guide unit approximately three times the belt width before the point where the belt adjustment is needed or before any major pulley. If installing multiple units, allow 21 to 50m between units depending on the severity of mistracking. Upper Belt Tracker Locate the upper guide unit beyond the loading point or three times the belt width before the point where the belt adjustment is needed.

Step 9. Rotate the torque arm so the centre pivot of the guide frame is in line with the centre of the belt.

Ensure the guide arms are extended an equal distance from the guide frame and tighten adjustment screws.
SECTION 5 - COMMISSIONING Step 1. Manually move the guide rollers from side to side to check the system function. Ensure all bolts have been tightened adequately. Step 2. Is the belt empty? Make sure there are no tools left on the belt They may clog up conveyor systems.
