Carefully remove the Shield Assembly from the crate, picking
it up on both ends. In some cases, this will require multiple
people.
5.
Holding the Shield above the conveyor, angle down the Over Nose Bar end so that it touches the
conveyor before the rest of the Shied. Align both sides of the lower shield with the back of the
Conveyor Head Plate, then guide the two Lower Shield edges over the outside of the Conveyor Frame.
Notches should align with all Conveyor Mount Tabs and M8 Thumb Screw Studs.
▪
ATTENTION: Be sure the Lower Shield sits in the neck of the Mount Peg contacting the
Conveyor Frame, as well as the threaded portions of the M8 Thumb Screw Studs tight against
the Conveyor Frame. The Thumb Screws will apply pressure and hold the Shield Assembly in
place.
If the Lower Shield notches do not align with the Conveyor Mount Tabs preventing easy installation
some adjustment of conveyor position may be necessary due to movement during shipping or
adjustments to fit each machine.
Do Not Loosen the M8 Set Screw that hold the Thumb screws
.
▪
Slightly loosen the M8 Button Head Bolts, shift the position of the conveyor until the Conveyor
Mount Tabs are close to centered within the Lower Shield notches, do not tighten the M8
Button Head Bolts and move to the next step.
6.
With the Shield Assembly sitting on the conveyor check that all Lower Shield notches have the
Conveyor Mount Brackets within the cutout notch. The 60 mm Drive Mount T Nut for the Drive Mount
Bracket should be visible within the middle Lower Shield notch.
7.
Tighten the Thumb Screws holding the Shield to the Conveyor Frame.
8.
Loosen the Pivot Thumb Screw
do not remove
and slowly reposition the Conveyor Assembly to the
operating position by pushing the Conveyor Frame/Lower Shield towards the machine Faceplate.
