5. Disassemble the belt splice and allow the belt
to fall beneath the sweeper.
6. Remove the belt from under the sweeper.
Squaring Conveyor Structure
The conveyor structure should be checked and
adjusted for squareness in the sweeper and to the
sweeping surface. Use the following procedure.
1. On the conveyor structure, select a reference
point (e.g., a bolt or bracket) that is common to
both sides.
2. Measure the distance from each reference
point to the surface on which the sweeper is
standing.
3. If the two measurements do not closely match,
square the conveyor structure by taking the
following steps.
a. Raise the conveyor.
b. Block and support the conveyor.
c. With the pistons of the conveyor lift cylin-
ders (Figure SP-20) retracted, remove the
snap ring at the bottom of the appropriate
cylinder, and remove the cylinder.
d. Add one or more shim washers at the rod
end of the cylinder.
e. Install the cylinder and snap ring.
f. Unblock and lower the conveyor.
g. Repeat the measurement procedure and, if
necessary, repeat the adjustment procedure
until the conveyor structure is squared.
NOTICE
To achieve squareness, the number of washers on
the two cylinders will generally be different. When
ground clearance is adjusted, this difference should
be maintained throughout the adjustment. See
CONVEYOR GROUND CLEARANCE.
