B. MOUNTING THE BAG TENSIONER:
Figure 2.2 and 2.3
1.
After attaching the tensioner mount, set the
bag tensioner in the mount as shown (Figure
2.1). The two mounting shafts slide into the
mounting slots.
2.
Set the tensioner foward in the mounting slots
for most closing applications (toward conveyor
side). Position the tensioner at the back of the
slots for milk closing applications only.
3.
Add the washer and nut to the end of the
mounting shaft. Tighten the mounting nut ”finger
tight” only at this time.
4.
With the tensioner properly located in the
mounting slots, tighten the two No. 10 socket
head screws to secure the tensioner
adjustment washer to the bottom of the
tensioner mount. This allows the bag
tensioner to be removed from the mount and
then remounted in the same operating location.
5.
Check to see that the point at which the brushes
mesh together corresponds to the horizontal
center line of the package to be closed. Adjust
the height of the bag tensioner by first loosen-
ing the mounting nut and then turning the mount
adjust gears (Figure 2.3) in the desired direc-
tion to raise or lower the tensioner. After the
proper tensioner height is achieved, tighten the
mounting nut to the tensioner mounting shaft.
6.
Adjust the upper fence rod until its outside edge
lines up vertically with the side of the conveyor
frame (Figure 2.3).
