SECTION 6 - OPERATOR TRAINING
The last step is the correct training of personnel to maintain and service the equipment or employ
ESS on a contract basis to service and maintain ESS equipment keeping it in its optimum working
condition.
If using your own personell to maintain the equipment, train them as follows;
1. Adhere to all local safety rules.
2.
Give a “hands on” instruction with your conveyor system shut down.
3.
Give a “hands on” instruction with your conveyor system running.
4. All services must be recorded and given to a person of responsibility.
5. Encourage the person being trained to look out for possible problems developing on the
system.
eg. Belt tracking excessively, tears or damage to the belt, excessive carry back, seized idlers,
missing bolts etc. A warning to the Maintenance Department to rectify small problems
can save the company a lot of money in repairs and production costs.
6. Impress how important it is to maintain and service ESS equipment correctly.
