Points of maintenance
Chain tension, conveyor (1)
Check chain tension:
When the conveyor chain is correctly
tensioned, the lower edge of the chain
is approx. 20-25mm over the lower edge
of the chassis.
m
The conveyor chains should not be too
tight or too slack. An excessively taut
chain can cause the chain to be stopped
or to break when material falls into the
space between the chain and the
sprocket.
An excessively slack chain may catch on
protruding objects and be destroyed.
Adjustment of chain tension:
One adjusting screw is located on both
A
halves of the conveyor for adjusting the
chain tension.
The adjusting screws (A) are located at
A
the reversal behind the crossbeam.
- Loosen the lock nut (A) on the rear of
the reversal.
- Adjust the chain tension using the ad-
justing screw (B).
- Retighten the lock nut (A) properly.
