Adjusting Conveyor
Belt Tracking
Adjust conveyor belt tension before adjust-
ing conveyor belt tracking.
The conveyor belt is tracking properly when it
stays centered on its rollers during operation and
does not wander from side to side. The tracking is
adjusted by rotating either the left or right convey-
or belt tension adjustment bolt
depending on the needs of the adjustment.
In addition, two guide wheels
tect the conveyor belt from damage if the tracking
is out of adjustment, by preventing it from rubbing
against the inside surfaces of the conveyor table.
