INSTALLATION
• Support Installation
1. determine primary direction of product
flow. figure 4A indicates the preferred flow
as related to the drive.
2. Refer to "match-mark" numbers on ends
of conveyor sections. (figure 4A) Position
them in this sequence near the area of
installation.
3. Attach supports to both ends of drive
section and to one end of intermediate
or tail sections (figure 4A). Hand tighten
bolts only at this time. Conveyors angle
of incline will determine where the knee
brace mounting brackets are to be placed
when required.
4. Adjust elevation to required height.
• Ceiling Hanger Installation
If conveyors are to be used in an overhead application, ceiling hangers may
have been supplied in place of floor supports.
figure 4B shows how a ceiling hanger mounts to a conveyor section.
Ceiling hangers should be mounted at section joints. for safety informa-
tion concerning conveyors mounted overhead, refer to "Installation Safety
Precautions" on Pg 3.
NOTE: When installing ceiling hanger rods in an existing building, all
methods of attachment must comply with local building codes.

3. Install remaining sections placing end without support on extend pivot plate
of previous section (figure 4A). Check "match mark" Numbers to see that
adjoining sections are in proper sequence
4. fasten sections together with butt couplings and pivot plates (figure 4C).
Hand tighten bolts only.
5. Check to see that conveyor is level across width and length of unit. Adjust
supports and ceiling hangers as necessary.
