IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The fact that the FBR conveyor is partially produced and assembled from components of
fiberglass and other traditional electrical non-conductive materials MUST NOT BE ASSUMED
AS A SAFE-GUARD against an inadvertent contact with a power line. You must exercise the
utmost care. There are many factors that influence the electrical conductivity of a structure such
as the FBR conveyor. In addition, IT IS AGAINST FEDERAL AND STATE LAW TO
POSITION THE CONVEYOR WITHIN TWENTY (20) FEET OF A POWER LINE.
ALWAYS USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN OPERATING THE CONVEYOR. See 29
CFR 1926.1400
o Risk of DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY if conveyor or load comes into Contact
with or Proximity to Power Lines. It is against Federal and State Law to
position the conveyor within twenty (20) feet of a power line. Always use
extreme caution when operating the conveyor.
o Risk of DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY if conveyor or load comes into Contact
with or Proximity to Power Lines. Never replace the hydraulic lines on the
conveyor with substitution lines made with metal or rubber. Replace only with
identical brand and type as installed as original equipment on the conveyor. Call
Cleasby Conveyors for information (800) 435-2446 or (801) 773-1311 for
additional information.
o Risk of DEATH or SERIOUS INJURY if conveyor or load comes into Contact
with or Proximity to Power Lines. Never replace the conveyor belt except with
the identical brand and type as installed as original equipment on the conveyor.
Call Cleasby Conveyors for information (800) 435-2446 or (801) 773-1311 for
additional information.
The Hydraulic lines employed on the conveyor are a special electrical non-conductive material.
Their basic properties resist the flow of electrical current and thus make them poor conductors.
The fact that the composition of the hydraulic line material makes it a poor conductor of
electricity, MUST NOT be considered as a safeguard against contact with or proximity to Power
Lines. Numerous possibilities of various contaminants in the hydraulic fluid carried in the lines
make possible the conduction of electrical current along these fluid corridors. THE
HYDRAULIC LINES MUST NEVER BE REPLACED EXCEPT WITH AN IDENTICAL
BRAND AND TYPE AS INSTALLED ON THE CONVEYOR.
The belt used on the FBR Conveyor is a special electrical non-conductive belt. Its’ basic
properties resist the flow of electrical current and thus make is a poor conductor. The fact that the
composition of the belt material makes it a poor conductor of electricity, MUST NOT be
considered as a safeguard against contact with or proximity to Power Lines. Dirt, Dust, Debris or
other contaminants or the presence of Water or other Fluids on the surface of the belt may alter
or change its conductive characteristics with the result that it may become a CONDUCTOR of
ELECTRICITY. The PVC material employed in the fabrication of the belt is a unique and special
composition. THE BELT MUST NEVER BE REPLACED EXCEPT WITH AN IDENTICAL
BRAND AND TYPE AS INSTALLED ON THE CONVEYOR.
