ADJUSTMENTS

WARNING: SHUT OFF AND LOCK OUT POWER BEFORE CLEANING, ADJUSTING, LUBRICATING OR SERVICING THIS MACHINE. FAILURE TO HEED MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

Correct tension on the apron chains is when the apron chain slat is 1/8” to 1/4” off the return slides (three feet from the front of the box). To tighten chains, tighten the adjuster bolts at each end of the front sprocket shafts. Each apron chain has its own sprocket shaft. Tighten the adjuster bolts at each end of the shaft equally.

The roller chain drives are tensioned by automatic spring loaded tension blocks. Periodically eye bolts will need to be adjusted to maintain proper spring tension. Springs should be stretched to obtain approximately 1/16” gap between windings.
