Troubleshooting
Noise from the VersaLoop™
• Chain may be loose. Check chain tension and adjust if necessary.
• Sprockets at the drive and non-drive end may not be in line or not properly tightened. Check for align-
ment and center if misaligned and tighten the sprockets.
• Check for the proper assembly of the drive end or the non-drive end. Disassemble the parts that are
worn and grind them to reuse or replace them with new parts.
Grain recycling back to the fill point
• Check to make sure that the discharge gate is open.
• Check and clean out the slide gate in the discharge gate.
• Check the downstream equipment for potential plugging.
Unit not delivering full capacity
• Make sure that grain is not over running the discharge gate and returning to the fill-point.
• High moisture grain will move at a lower capacity than dry grain.
• Check for obstructions in the inlet.
• Check to make sure that the chain has not been installed with a twist.
Paddles breaking or bending
• Check to make sure that the sprockets are centered in the drive and non-drive units.
• Check to make sure that the paddles are fastened securely to the chain brackets.
• Let the system “break-in” and the tubing become polished before loading to full capacity.
• If you hear paddles “clicking” at a joint, check for gaps in the tubing. This will require loosening the
bolts in the connecting band to be able to see the tube joint.
Chain failure
• Check to make sure that the master connecting links have been installed correctly.
• Check for obstructions in the system.
