Ksys1 Conveyor Manual Belt Changing Instructions
Belt Changing Instructions Top View :Belts attached and alignment view Undue wear / belt replacement is normally caused by 2 problems. The first problem is applying to much force to make the product move through the conveyor. Minimum tension should be used. The second problem is overtightening of belt on conveyor itself. The distance between belt and belt guide should be minimal. Overtightening will cause 1. Excessive belt wear, 2. possible idler damage and 3. motor damage. Belt Guide Belt Minimal distance Tension Block Assembly To Tension the belt. To Tension belt. Loosen locking nut. Turn tension bolt counter- clockwise to increase tension. Adjust tension so there is minimal distance between back of belt and belt guide. Retighten locking nut. NOTE: LOCKING NUT AND TENSION BOLT ARE LEFT-HANDED THREAD. I.E. TO TIGHTEN, TURN CCW TO LOOSEN TURN CW.
Top View : Motor and belts not shown Undue wear or belt replacement is normally caused by 2 problems. The first problem is applying to much force to make the product move through the conveyor. Minimum tension should be used. The second problem is overtightening of belt on conveyor itself. The belt should sit against the belt guide with minimal distance between them. Overtightening will cause 1. belt wear, 2. possible idler damage and 3. motor damage. Changing Idler Pulley Assembly Instructions When Changing Idler pulley 1. Remove Old Idler pulley. 2. Clean slot (Both Top and Bottom) 3. Apply new grease (supplied) 4. Install new idler pulley 5. Slide idler assembly back and forth in slot to ensure smooth movement NOTE: Top of Idler Pulley is Marked with a "Top". "Top"goes to top plate. Idler pulley needs to be "pushed down" to bushing before tensioning belt Idler Pulley should be horizontal to timing pulley. If it is not, belt wear and possible damage to belts, motor and idler pulley WILL OCCUR. To much tension on belt will cause this to happen. Use Minimum pressure to hold product Idler Belt Pulley Timing Belt Pulley Idler Belt Pulley Timing Belt Pulley Both Idler pulley and timing belt pulley should be parallel to each other
TO REMOVE OLD BELT 1. Loosen belt tensioner. (# 8) may be [LEFT -HANDED THREAD] 2. Remove screws from locations 1-7 STARTING with #5 NOTE: SCREW # 5 is attached to BOTTOM PLATE 3. Seperate plates from each other 4. Install new belt 5. Adjust tension on belt 6. Reinstall plates and screws. Starting with # 5. Make sure the idler pulley is in the slot (# 9) and belt is to the outside of belt guide (# 10) 7. Make final tension adjustment on belt (# 8) 9 3 8 4 2 5 10 1 6 7 KH Systems Inc. 19520 S.

How to make adjustments on Ksys1 conveyor system. 1. Adjusting carrier to Product. A. Loosen handles on carrier. B. With both hands push or pull (depending on increasing or decreasing the distance between the carriers) the carrier with fingers. This must be done at the same time to avoid misalignment of carrier. Do not try to push plates. This will misalign the carrier on the rod, making it much more difficult to move. C. Relock handles on carrier ** Note: When setting distance for product, it is best to place 1 product at one each end of conveyor and adjust accordingly, using minimal tension to hold the product in place. If there is too much pressure, the following problems might occur. 1. Movement of belt guide. 2. Stoppage of motors from turning
