Powering Conveyors By Hand
Powering the Conveyor by hand must be done during Cover replacement and after every
maintenance procedure prior to connecting the power source. This is done to ensure that
the Timing Belts are seated properly onto the teeth of the pulleys.
Important: Failure to hand-power a conveyor before turning on its motor may result in the
following:
1) Blown Fuse
2) Timing Belt Damage
3) Drive Assembly Damage
Procedure:
1) Unplug Power to the Conveyor.
2) Turn the Collar Clamp with your fingers. Turn in both directions until the
Timing Belts are properly seated. *The last direction turned should be the
same as the conveyor’s direction of flow.
3) To avoid problems, hand-power the conveyor as it is being assembled. For
example: After assembling the Collar Clamp, hand-power the conveyor. After
replacing the Product Guide, hand-power the conveyor. Replace the Cover,
then hand-power the conveyor.
4) Restore Power to the Conveyor.
Troubleshooting:
1) Unplug Power to the Conveyor.
2) Remove the Covers and Product Guide one piece at a time until the
conveyor can be powered by hand.
3) Replace the Product Guide and Covers one piece at a time and hand power
after each piece is in place.
4) Restore power to the Conveyor.
Determining a Conveyor’s “Right” and “Left”
Procedure:
1) View the Conveyor with the end containing the Motor closest to you.
2) As you view the Conveyor from this perspective, the Conveyor is divided into a
left and a right side. Use this procedure to determine the correct part.

Preventive Maintenance
The following is a list of procedures that should be followed as a part of a regular
maintenance routine.
Procedure For Belt Drive Conveyors:
1) Unplug the Conveyor Power Connector.
2) Check the Conveyor to make sure that all Rollers are turning freely.
3) Check for wear on the Drive Belt and on the Timing Belts.
4) Check to make sure that the Drive Belt is in alignment and properly tensioned.
5) Check to make sure that the Conveyor is securely fastened to its frame.
6) Always hand-power the Conveyor after maintenance and before start-up.
7) Restore Power to the Conveyor.
Procedure For Direct Drive Conveyors:
1) Unplug Power to the Conveyor.
2) Check the Conveyor to make sure that all Rollers are turning freely.
3) Check for wear on the Timing Belts.
4) Check to make sure that the Conveyor is securely fastened to its frame.
5) Always hand-power the Conveyors after maintenance and before start-up.
6) Restore Power to the Conveyor.

Routine Maintenance
Pulley / Roller Replacement
Procedure:
1) Unplug power to the Conveyor.
2) Loosen the Shaft from the Rail with a ½” wrench.
3) Turn the Shaft out with your fingers.
4) Place a new Roller and/or Pulley on the Shaft.
5) Make sure that the shoulder of the Shaft extends past the Pulley to prevent
the Pulley from being pinched against the Rail (See below).
6) Turn the Roller Assembly into the rail with your fingers until snug.
7) Using a Torque Wrench set to 32 inch/pounds, tighten the Roller Assembly.
8) Hand spin the Pulley and Roller to make sure they spin freely and are not
being pinched into the Rail.
9) Restore power to the Conveyor.
