1.Install Infeed Conveyor in production line. When installing the Infeed Conveyor, be sure to observe the following guidelines.

a.Infeed Conveyor must be installed level – it is not designed to convey boxes uphill.

b.Production Line must convey boxes to

Infeed Conveyor at the target speed indicated in Specifications (Section 4) and can be set as shown in Figure 7-6.

c.Precautions must be taken to prevent excessive box pressure against the Infeed Conveyor infeed gate. This will help to prevent damage to the boxes and ensure proper performance.

d.Infeed and exit conveyors must provide straight entrance and exit of boxes to/from Infeed Conveyor and exit conveyor must positively convey boxes away from machine

Note: The air valve has provisions for lock out/ tag out according to plant regulations.
