SAFETY CONNECTOR BRACKETS (450BOS ONLY)

Always use gravity connector bracket with pop out roller (see illustration)
to permanently attach any gravity conveyor to 450 BOS conveyor.

Never connect powered conveyors directly to gravity conveyors without
using connector brackets with pop out roller.

This simple connection eliminates hazardous pinch points that would oth-
erwise exist by attaching a gravity conveyor directly to a powered belt unit.

Connector Brackets are supplied as an optional component for the
450BOS.

Connector brackets may not have been originally required for unit appli-
cation, but they are readily available.
GENERAL INSTALLATION INFORMATION
ATTACHING BED SECTIONS

Use mechanical hoist (fork truck or other available means) to raise
bed sections to approximate installed elevation.
Mate intermediate sec-
tions with either butt couplings or splice plates to join bed sections (see
illustration).

One of the most critical elements of proper installation is unit
squareness. Check drive pulley, tail pulley, snub roller (if used in
drive assembly) and return roller assemblies to ensure these com-
ponents are square with unit bed (see ‘Belt Tracking’ section later in
handbook for detailed information).

The unit must be installed at level elevation across the width to pre-
vent erratic belt tracking.
When preparing to install conveyor:

Locate all component sections in the actual installation area.

After uncrating, place unit bed sections conveying side up . Each
bed section is marked to indicate proper sequence for mating (see illus-
tration for typical bed section labels).

It is critical for bed sections to be field assembled in proper
sequence following bed section labels. Refer to bed section drawing
for location of supports and assemble as shown.

Conveyors are set up at the factory , bed section labels are applied, unit
is test run and receives rigorous quality assurance inspection. At this time the
unit becomes field-ready. Therefore, it is critical that field installation person-
nel re-assemble unit by mating beds in accordance with bed section labels
(and bed section drawing).

Create a reference base line on floor by marking a chalk line along the
center line of conveyor. Follow base line when installing unit.
COUPLINGS AND UNIT SqUARENESS
WARNING
Never connect belt conveyors directly to gravity conveyors, machinery or fixtures without using connector brackets with pop out roller.
