INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
The 2460 heavy duty spinner hanger will be shipped to the customer in two sections. Section
I: elevator section and separator/storage hopper section, section II: cabinet/chamber section. Trained
Goff personnel or a Goff representative will be made available to instruct customer personnel in the
proper operating procedures and maintenance requirements. Installation should be complete
including proper air and electrical hook-up, and ready for operation when the representative arrives.
Customer provides materials and personnel required for installation. The following is the procedure
check list that should be followed during installation.
I.
Cabinet and chamber section should be leveled and anchored in place.
2. Section I should be positioned with the separator/hopper section over the blast cabinet and
the elevator top section over the elevator leg (located on the right side of the blast unit).
Level and bolt securely in place.
3. The elevator belt should now be installed. To gain access to the elevator casing, remove the
lid on the elevator top section. Loosen all thread take-ups and lower elevator belt through
the top lid. Remove the access cover on the elevator bottom section and adjust the belt
splice.
4. Adjust the elevator belt to proper tension by adjusting the all-thread take-ups. The unloaded
belt should run generally in the center of the elevator casing with minimum movement from
side to side. Elevator buckets should not strike the sides of the casing. It should not be
possible to manually slide the elevator belt back and forth across the face of the pulley when
the elevator is stopped. However, the tension on the belt should not be so great that there is
a danger of tearing out the splice.
5. Connect the drive chains on the conveyor shafts and tighten the set screws on the shaft
bearings. Check the tension on all v-belts.
6. The dust collection system is an optional feature. The dust collector should be securely
anchored in place. Connect the ducting from the cabinet to the dust collector (Note:
7.
8.
Customer provides all ducting materials.)
The major p01tion of the installation is completed. Final electrical and air connections can
now be completed. Hoses from the storage hopper to the blast wheels can be attached.
After machine installation, inspect all hoppers, conveyors, buckets, screens and spouts.
