• Transfer Adjustment
1. The height of the transfer should be preset at factory.
2. The height of the transfer may be adjusted to proper height by raising or lowering the cylinder-mounting channel. Loosen 3/8 in. bolts holding the cylinder-
mounting channel. Adjust using jack bolts, tighten 3/8 in. bolts.
DRIVE BELT TENSION
1. Loosen 3/8” locknut holding take-up idler, tension belt by pushing take-up idler down, hand tight should be adequate. Tighten the 3/8” locknut on take-up
idler (See fig. 8A).
2. To remove belt the drive rollers must be removed (See fig. 8A). Remove by pushing one side of the hex axle though the transfer support channel.
DRIVE ROLLER SPEED
To change the speed of the drive roller, turn round knob on the Vfd (variable frequency drive).
NOTE: All transfer motors are 230 volts AC. When supplying 460 volts to the Vfd, the drive will be programmed to have an output of 230 volts to the
motors.
