CHAPTER 3: CONVEYOR BELT
3-7
TURBO HB
9. Before moving the old belt out of the way, pay particular attention to the way the side wings overlap.
When the belt is running in the normal direction of travel, the leading ends of the side wings are
outboard, and the trailing ends are inboard
10. Place the new belt on the floor beneath the conveyor discharge, being careful to orient it in the same
direction as the old one that was removed.
11. If there is not already a hinge pin in the end of the belt, use the pin and rollers that were removed to
separate the old belt. There must be a pin and rollers in the extreme end of the belt for ease of
insertion.
12. With a person standing on either side of the belt, lift up the lead end and start it in the lower track,
from which the old belt was pulled out. Be sure and wear gloves to prevent injury, and be sure to
maintain a secure hold on the belt until at least five feet have been fed into the conveyor frame. At
this point, the weight of the belt inside the frame should be enough to prevent it running back out on
it's own.
13. Continue feeding the belt into the conveyor frame. One person may have to use a pry bar to "help" it
along from time to time. Force should not be required. Many times the belt can be pushed in all the
way around from the discharge end. If the belt hangs up, look for some obstruction; don't force it.
14. When the lead end of the belt reaches the drive shaft, carefully feed it up over the drive sprockets.
15. Remove the hinge pin and rollers that were used to help guide the belt through the track.
16. With the ends of the belt engaged in the teeth around the top and bottom of the drive sprockets, the
two ends should join. At this point, it may be necessary to remove one or more hinge plates from the
new belt. Most new belts are supplied longer than necessary.
17. Reverse steps 1 through 7. When carrying out step 2 in reverse ensure that the motor is not raised
too high as to cause unnecessary stress on the chain. The chains should be tight but there should
move together around 5mm when squeezed. Also ensure that all lock nuts are secured before testing.
