3.7.4 Restarting after Emergency Stop:
When the conveyor is shut down inadvertently
or in an emergency, the conveyor belt will still be
covered with product.
Remove as much product from the hopper as
possible, before restating the engine.
Since start-up torque loads are much higher than
normal when belt is full, restart at a low engine
speed. The engine speed can be increased to
full throttle, when the belt is empty.
Now, product can again be unloaded into the
conveyor hopper.
