BELT LAGGING INSTALLATION
1.
IF THE BELT MOVES TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AT THE EXIT END OF THE MACHINE,
THEN THE BELT LAGGING (FRICTION) MATERIAL ON THE DRIVE ROLLER MUST BE
CUT ON THE SAME SIDE THAT THE BELT IS MOVING TOWARDS. TO ACCOMPLISH
THIS, FIRST REMOVE THE BELT THAT IS MOVING OUT OF LINE AS DESCRIBED
ABOVE, SO THAT THE EXIT ROLLER CAN TURN FREELY, AFTER THE MACHINE
IS TURNED ON.
2.
TURN ON MACHINE AND WITH A UTILITY KNIFE, CUT ABOUT 1/8” OFF THE BELT
LAGGING MATERIAL BY PLACING THE POINT OF THE KNIFE ON THE LAGGING
MATERIAL WHILE THE DRIVE ROLLER IS TURNING. BE SURE TO PLACE THE
KNIFE ON THE ROLLER SO THAT THE ROLLER IS MOVING AWAY FROM THE POINT
OF THE KNIFE.
3.
AFTER A COMPLETE CUT IS MADE, TURN MACHINE OFF AND WITH THE POINT OF
THE KNIFE, LIFT UP A SECTION OF THE CUT LAGGING AND PULL OFF UNTIL IT IS
REMOVED FROM THE DRIVE ROLLER COMPLETELY. (THIS CAN BE DONE BY
JOGGING THE MACHINE ON/OFF WHILE PULLING THE CUT STRIP OF LAGGING).
4.
REPLACE BELT AND CHECK ALIGNMENT. BELT WILL HAVE MOVED TO THE
OPPOSITE SIDE THAT WAS CUT. THIS PROCEDURE MAY HAVE TO BE REPEATED
UNTIL THE BELTS ARE CENTERED.
