ADJUSTING THE CONVEYOR BELT TRACKING
Conveyor belt tracking is pre--set at the factory,
but may require adjustments due to belt stretch,
etc. Check the belt tracking daily when the
hopper is being dumped.
The tracking is adjusted by raising and lowering
one end of the upper roller. This is done by
moving the stop nut on one of the adjusting rods
on the side of the conveyor.
NOTE: It is usually easier to lower (shorten) the
end you want the belt to move towards, than to
raise the opposite end.
