1. The first step in belt tracking is to make sure all pulleys are parallel with each other and perpendicular to the frame.
Once this has been done refer to FIGURE 7 for proper tracking adjustments on end drive conveyors or FIGURE 8
for proper tracking on center drive and take-up conveyors.

A GENERAL RULE FOR CORRECT BELT TENSION IS THAT THE BELT MUST BE
TIGHT ENOUGH TO MOVE YOUR PRODUCT AT FULL LOAD. OVERTIGHTENING
OF THE BELT WILL CAUSE THE BELT, PULLEYS, BEARINGS, AND DRIVE
COMPONENTS TO WEAR OUT PREMATURELY.
IN REF. TO LEFT HAND AND RIGHT HAND SIDES, WE AT TITAN INDUSTRIES
ALWAYS POSITION OURSELF STANDING AT THE INFEED, LOOKING AT THE
DRIVE END TO DETERMINE RIGHT HAND VS LEFT HAND
NOTE:
BY ADJUSTING THE PULLEYS
IN A DIRECTION OPPOSITE
TO THAT SHOWN WILL RESULT
