Take an ESS 2000 Back Plate section and position it such that the bottom edge is uniformly dimension A (Sect 3.4) from the belt, and one end is at the required start point of the skirt seal (preferably toward the tail end of the conveyor). - Page 10 For lengths of 500-600mm, the Backplate may be trimmed to the required length at one end only. Cut the end furthest from the previous Backplate. Fit the Backplate as previously described. Cut the Clamp plate at the same end. ESS 2000 Series Skirting System 08/06/2021...
- Page 11 (cotters). The two cotters may be reduced to 150mm centres minimum. Weld the Backplate sections back together and dress smooth with a grinder. The Clamp Plate will also be cut and re-joined in a similar manner, again allowing 5mm clearance at the ends. ESS 2000 Series Skirting System 08/06/2021...
- Page 12 See the cutting procedure following in section 4.2. Insert the skirting rubber from one end, making sure that the correct edge is downward. Secure the rubber by placing the ESS 2000 clamps plates in position over the captive wedges, and lightly tapping the wedges to hold the rubber.
- Page 13 The following steps are recommended for the safe cutting of ESS Snug-Fit and Square Edge rubber skirt seals: Step 1 Measure and mark the required length of ESS 2000 skirt rubber for the job being undertaken. A white paint marker is recommended, and the mark should be perpendicular to the length of the rubber.
- Page 14 Step 4 The assistant should hold the cut open by firmly holding the rubber and turning it slightly downward. Do not apply excessive load – this could result in a fall when the final cut releases the rubber. ESS 2000 Series Skirting System 08/06/2021...
- Page 15 Step 5 Continue as above until the cut is completed. Release the end of the rubber from the vice, and install as described in the ESS 2000 manual. Store the left over rubber in a suitable place in line with good house-keeping practice.
