A1 

– 

The apron chain is adjusted by (4) adjuster bolts 

located on the front of the box frame, Figure 13. Adjust the 
bolts so the chain is elevated above the plastic slide rails 
for 20” as illustrated in Figure 10. When there is no more 
adjustment left on the adjuster bolts, loosen the nuts and 
push the bolts in as far as they will go. Then remove a link 
from each chain and readjust. 
 
 

NOTICE! 

Apron chains must be adjusted equally so that it 

runs centered on the front nylon rollers.
