Adjustment
In order for the conveyor’s start and stop to occur at the
correct position, small adjustments may be necessary
to the micro-switch
(Figure 7-12,1) located on the
conveyor flap (Figure 7-12,2) . There are two positions
of the conveyor flap: one upper, shutting the conveyor
OFF, and one lower, turning the conveyor ON. Read the
following procedures carefully, referring to the figures
as needed.
1. Raise the conveyor flap
(Figure 7-12,2) 6-1/2 to 7
in. (16.5 to 17.8 cm) from bottom of the tank mount
support (Figure 7-12,3) . Secure conveyor flap so

it remains in this position. If micro-switch clicked
OFF within the 6 1/2 to 7 in. (16.5 to 17.8 cm) limit, no
further adjustment is required to the upper travel.
2. If the micro-switch (Figure 7-12,2) did not click OFF,
adjustment is needed. Remove the linkage (Figure
7-12,4) attaching the actuator arm (Figure 7-12,5)
to the eyelet on the flap pivot housing (Figure
7-12,6) .
3. Loosen setscrew “A” (Figure 7-13,1) , on the
actuator arm (Figure 7-13,2) . Reposition this arm
by either rotating it clockwise or counterclockwise
depending where the micro-switch clicked OFF
during the conveyor flaps upward travel (see
Figure
7-13 ).
