Under normal circumstances, going into the panel configuration is not necessary and not recommended. If the need arises, please
refer to the panel’s instruction manual for more specific instructions.

Maintenance
The
WIDECURE
conveyor should require little maintenance. It is
important that the belt be operated under proper tension and
alignment. If the belt is loose, it can slip, resulting in belt and roller
wear as well as improper conveyor speed. If the alignment is
incorrect, the belt can track to one side, inducing wear to the side of
the belt. The conveyor should be inspected daily to assure that the
belt and rollers rotate in phase with one another and that the belt
remains centered between the conveyor sides.

and Alignment
Belt-Tension Adjustment
If the belt requires an adjustment:
1.
Loosen the locking bolts, then turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase the belt tension (Figure 17). Make this
adjustment equally on both sides of the conveyor to ensure proper belt tracking. Once the slack has been removed, the
bolts should be evenly tightened 1 turn. Typical tension is 10 inch-pounds.
2.
Retighten the locking bolts.
NOTE: Do not over-tension the belt. Over tensioning can cause tearing of the belt seam and damage to other components.
