Maintenance - conveyor belt
Notes regarding the conveyor belt
Check that the belt is running centrally. The belt drive dogs must not move.
▪ If they do, the belt must be corrected so it runs centrally by adjusting the drive pulley or
return drum.
From time to time remove the material that drops down underneath the conveyor belt
to prevent damage to the belt drive dogs.
