of installation.
• Conveyor Set-Up
1. mark a chalk line on floor to locate center of the conveyor.
2. Attach supports and vibration pads to all conveyor sections shown in figures 4A and 4B.
Adjust elevation to required height. Hand tighten bolts only at this time.
3. during installation, check to make sure each bed section is square. measure the diagonals
from corner to corner of the frame. If they are not equal the frame must be squared. Attach
a come-along or some other suitable pulling device across longest corners and pull until the
section is square.
4. Place the infeed (tail) section in position. Locate the (2) provided threaded rods (on the
infeed or discharge end). Use these rods to pull together each section during installation.
5. Install remaining sections, placing end without support on extended pivot plate of previous
section (figure 4A).
6. fasten sections together with splice plates and pivot plates. (figure 4B). Hand tighten bolts
only at this time.
7. Check to see that conveyor is level across the width and length of unit.
as necessary.
8. After all sections have been squared and levelled, tighten all splice channels and support
mounting bolts and lag support to the floor.
9. Check alignment of wearstrip at all section joints. Sand wearstrip as necessary to provide
a smooth wear surface (figure 4B).
10. Starting on the infeed end, fasten bearing profile to wearstrip guide using rubber mallet to
force the profile edge under the wearstrip (figure 4B). Glue infeed end of profile to the support
angle with loctite # 401 or 454 adhesive.
11. fasten 1/2" main air line to bottom of conveyor channel with cable ties (figures 4d & 5C).
Connect 3/8"air lines at divert switches as shown in figures 5A & 5B.
12. Connect main air line to the filter/Regulator, (figure 5C) Set regulator to working pressure
of 60 P.S.I. Install low pressure switch, at farthest point from regulator (figure 5A).
13. Install electrical controls and wire motor.
Page 5 & 6 for electrical control information.
14. Check each divert switch to see that it is operating properly. This must be done before
carrying chains are installed. See instructions on Page 9 & 10.
15. Check proximity switch clearance at each internal safety switch (figure 5E).
necessary.
16. Install carrying chains per instructions on Page 9 & 10.
17. Adjust pop-up roller assembly at discharge end to optimize transition of packages from the
ProSort to the take away conveyor. Set pop-up roller proximity switch per figure 5d.
18. Install chain oiler at infeed and connect to oil lines as shown in figure 5f. Refer to the
Lubrication section, page 6, for type of oil required. After mounting, the oiler will need to be
adjusted for proper oiling of mounting chains. Adjustment may be made using a combination
of solenoid activation time and flow adjustment screws. (A good rule of thumb for solenoid
adjustment is to turn the oiler on for one complete chain revolution for every 2 hours of sorter
operation.) Typically, the chain on the divert side will need slightly more oil; the flow adjustment
screws can be altered to achieve volume. CAUTION: do not allow oil to drip on floor.
19. Locate spurs per instructions on Page 10.
20. Remove threaded rods before start-up.
