Installing
tensioner on
outside chute wall
1. For installations on the outside of the chute wall:
a. Mark chute wall cutouts as shown in Figure 5.
b. Make sure centerline of tensioner intersects axis of pulley.
c. Cut holes in chute wall. Remove burrs and sharp edges.
d. Install outside mounting plate on tensioner. See Figure 7.
(1) Remove nuts (F).
(2) Remove inside mounting plate (E) from tensioner assembly (A).
(3) Install outside mounting plate (C) on tensioner assembly.
(4) Install and tighten nuts (F).
e. Position tensioner in desired location free from obstructions as shown
in Figure 9. Make sure cleaner cables will not rub on chute wall
cutouts. Reposition tensioner or enlarge cutouts as required.
f. Mark location of tensioner mounting plate.
g. Remove mounting plate from tensioner.
h. Bolt or weld mounting plate in location marked in Step 1.e.
i. Install tensioner onto mount plate.
2. Measure approximate cable length required and cut cable.
3. Assemble cable eyelet and clamp as shown in Figure 9.
4. Torque nuts on clamp to 10 Nm (7.5 ft lbs).
5. Attach each cable to tensioner.
6. Tighten tensioner adjustment nuts until cleaner is held firmly to belt.
7. Center cleaner on pulley and install a cable clamp on the far side upper
cleaner cable. This clamp keeps the cleaner centered on the belt.
8. For reversing operation, use two clamps. One on the operator side and one
on the far side.
9. Adjust fixed point bracket and tensioner bracket, so outer two elements
on each side are away from the belt. Increase the number of elements off
the belt as necessary in order to ensure the mechanical splices will pass.
10. Tighten all fasteners on fixed point brackets and tensioner mounts.
11. Tension cleaner according instructions in
