Assembling the link chain
Observe the following during assembly:
▪
Select the chain length so that the contraction of the chain ends is done with little effort.
ǃ
With a tight chain, rattling will be heard at the drive station.
1. Check the run using a short piece of the chain.
2. Remove any clamping points and rework seams if necessary.
3. Observe the running direction of the chain.
4. Running direction (arrow direction) of the conveyor chain as
