1.
Main drive belt for proper tension. Adjust if necessary.
2.
Scraper drive tension and adjust if necessary.
Turn rotor by hand and check freedom from noise and ease of rotation.
Remove any lashings or coverings that may be protecting parts during
shipment.

4.
Close remaining circuit breakers.
5.
