Locking pin (C) must be raised for adjustment.
- Check the adjustment constantly: Switch the conveyor on and observe the scraper
from a safe distance.
Ensure:
- that all scraper blades move forwards and backwards evenly
- that all scraper blades have contact with the conveyor belt at the same time
- If necessary, switch the conveyor off and retighten the scraper evenly in steps of
1 to 2 turns (T-bolts (A))!
- Repeat process until correct setting is achieved.

The following drawing shows a typical adjustment.
The distance between the lower edge of the guide plate and the visible ends of the
bolt (D) acts as guidance.

The depicted adjustment serves as an indicative value: the position of the scrapers
can vary by a few millimetres, depending on
- conveyor belt tension (pay attention to correct adjustment!)
- scraper wear
- production tolerance

The front scraper in the travel direction is at a greater distance from the deflection axle
and is therefore always higher (E) than the rear scraper.
