NOTICE
Do not operate conveyor in reverse for more than 30
seconds without allowing forward motion to center
belt. Excessive reverse running can damage belt.
When the belt seems to be properly centered, test
the stability of the alignment by operating the con-

ning it forward. Within about 5 minutes, a correctly
adjusted conveyor will center the belt and keep it
centered.
