Installation
Carefully unpack the outer carton and shipping material. Avoid damaging the conveyor
frame.
Remove shipping bolts or brackets securing the conveyor to the shipping base. Lift the
conveyor off the shipping base.
CAUTION!
The conveyor may require more than one person to move
safely off the shipping base.
Optional Casters
The conveyor is delivered flat leveling feet, standard. If the conveyor is ordered with
optional locking casters, the casters are installed at the factory and the conveyor is
delivered with them installed, attached to the bottom of the threaded leveling legs.
Move Conveyor into Operating Location
Move the Eastey EC Series Variable Speed Conveyor to the desired location where it
will be operating. If the conveyor is equipped with the standard leveling feet, it may
require some lifting, but will easily skid across a smooth level floor surface. If you have
purchased the optional locking casters you can roll the conveyor easily over a smooth
flat surface. Move each caster lever to the locked position to keep the conveyor from
moving.
Height Adjustment and Leveling
Conveyors are shipped at minimum height to conserve space during shipping so it is
likely you will need to increase the conveyor height to bring it up to the desired height of
your conveyor line. All four legs at the corners of the conveyor are adjustable for height
and leveling, and two mechanisms allow for height adjustment: threaded-rod legs and
leg-extension angle brackets.
Threaded-rod legs:
threaded-rod legs are adjustable for their total length (less
approximately ½ inch of threads required to secure the legs in the bottom of leg-
extension angle brackets) and provide for fine adjustment to level the conveyor at the
required conveyor height.
Leg-extension angle brackets:
Extending or retracting the leg-extension angles
provide five inches (5”) additional height when extended, or less five inches (5”) when
retracted. When extending the leg-extension angles, it is recommended to reposition the
leg brace strap for stability. See the illustrations on the following page.
