Conveyor maintenance
5.6.1.
Replacing and tightening the belt of the input conveyor
Replace the belt of the input conveyor as
follows:
1.
Shut down the splitter and disconnect it
from its power sources.
2.
Raise and lock the input conveyor into
the transport position.
3.
Move the belt joint to a suitable height.
4.
Disconnect the joint by using, for
example, pliers to pull out the pin (A)
holding the joint together.
5.
Remove the old belt.
6.
Slide the new belt under the table (B)
from the side of the drive end until you
can pull the belt out from the other end.
7.
Lead the rest of the belt under the
wood press, above the feed roller and,
finally, behind the conveyor.
8.
Connect the joint by inserting the pin A
in the joint.
9.
Turn the conveyor back to the operating
position and tighten the belt.
Figure 25. Replacing the belt of the input
conveyor
The belt is at the correct tension when its middle section is raised approx. 5 cm when the conveyor is in the
operating position. An excessively tight belt may be damaged more easily, and it places unnecessary strain on
the conveyor's bearings.
5.6.2.
Replacing and tightening the belt of the output conveyor
Replace the belt of the input conveyor as follows:
1.
Pull out the pin locking the conveyor in place, and lower the conveyor to the ground.
2.
Shut down the splitter and disconnect it from its power sources.
3.
Move the belt joint to the beginning of the conveyor.
4.
Fold the conveyor, but do not place the belt support in the transport position. This will allow the belt
to hang loose.
5.
Disconnect the joint by opening the bolts (4 x M8).
6.
Remove the old belt.
7.
First, insert the new belt under the folded conveyor (bottom opening) from the end of the conveyor
with the plates facing down. Feed the belt in until you can pull it out from the other end of the
conveyor. Pull out a length of approx 60 cm.
8.
Push the other end of the belt into the upper section of the folded conveyor (top opening) from the
end of the conveyor. Feed it in until you can connect the joint.
9.
Pull the excess belt to the beginning of the conveyor.
10.
Lower the conveyor back to the operating position and tighten the belt.
