Screen box mesh Fitting, maintenance and adjustment
• Check the conditions of the rubbing strips (camber rubbers) under the screens, replace them if they are worn, as this will cause
damage or wear to the screens. To replace them it is necessary to remove the screens as described above, then remove the old
rubbing strip and fit the new ones pushing them down into position.
• Periodically check and tighten all screening media ensuring that it is bearing down firmly on each rubbing strips to avoid
premature wear. When replacing tension bolts ensure that new Nyloc Nuts are used.
• When the machine is running check for any excessive noise from the screen box i.e.: bearings, mesh tension, clamp
retaining plates, springs etc.. Shutdown and then investigate source of the problem. Adjust or replace any defective
components.
Your Barford SR124 screen box is fitted with an End tensioning system on the bottom deck. The top mesh panel is tensioned
from the High end of the Screen box using a single tension clamp. The bottom mesh panel is tensioned using the mechanical
threaded adjusters on each side of the screen box directly under its vibrating mechanism. The bottom mesh panel adjusters
control the tension on a single removable high tensile spring steel camber bar.
