It is advisable to start the conveyor belt unloaded to prevent the thermal fuses on the motor and/or switch
from triggering.
In certain circumstances (non-overloaded belt and small slope), the conveyor belt can nonetheless
be started while loaded.
WARNING: if the belt does not start to move, switch off the motor immediately.
Linking Several Conveyor Belts.
3M:
when the conveyor belt enters service the user must ensure that the leads cannot be damaged.
A maximum of 3 conveyor belts of 3 metres can be connected behind each other using a secured 16 A
mains power supply. The conveyor belts can be coupled via a linking lead so that a separate power supply
(115V) does not have to be provided for each belt.
4.5M:
when the conveyor belt enters service the user must ensure that the leads cannot be damaged.
A maximum of 2 conveyor belts of 4,5 metres can be connected behind each other using a secured 16 A
mains power supply. The conveyor belts can be coupled via a linking lead so that a separate power supply
(115V) does not have to be provided for each belt.
The last conveyor in the series must be equipped with an end plug.
3M:
if the user wishes to use more than 3 belts, a separate mains power supply must be provided for
every 3 conveyor belts.
4.5M:
if the user wishes to use more than 2 belts, a separate mains power supply must be provided for
every 2 conveyor belts.
Each conveyor belt can be started separately by using the start button. The start button is green in colour.
A red (emergency) stop button is located at the end sides of the conveyor belt.
‘Stop’ not only halts the conveyor belt on the machine where the stop button was pressed but also all
conveyor belts that are connected to the same power supply.
Only switch on live power to the conveyors when ALL conveyors have been fully set-up and
electrically connected!
Never connect/disconnect or clean conveyors that are attached to live power!
USER INSTRUCTIONS
THERMAL FUSE
If the conveyor belt is overloaded
the motor stops thanks to the built-
in thermal fuses in the motor and
switch unit.
