Installation and mounting
How it is installed
-
Centre the belt on the station before starting installation.
-
Slide the disc over the end of the idler until it butts against the belt edge.
-
Tighten the clamp. There is no need to remove the idlers from the station.
Recommended mounting. Install in pairs ahead of the tail pulley to align the belt and eliminate spillage caused by a belt arriving off-centre at the transfer point.
They can then be installed after the transfer zone, along the loading area, to help keep the belt aligned.
