This conveyor can be used for Right Angle or Straight Through operation. In addition it can be run in the Left-to-Right or Right-to-Left operating mode. Setting up the Conveyor 1. First determine if the conveyor is to be used in the Left-to-Right or Right-to-Left mode. A switch is mounted under the conveyor near the front lefthand side of the conveyor on the motor mounting plate. CAUTION DO NOT SWITCH DIRECTION OF BELTS WHEN MOTOR IS RUNNING. OVERLOAD MAY OCCUR AND FUSES WILL BLOW AND/OR BREAKER WILL TRIP. 2. Next mount the stacking tray to the appropriate end of the conveyor using the three screws supplied. NOTE: THE STACKING TRAY CAN BE MOUNTED TO EITHER END OF THE CONVEYOR DETERMINED BY THE DIRECTION THE BELTS TRAVEL. 3. If the conveyor is to be used in the straight through mode the Right Angle Guide should be removed. If the Right Angle Guide has to be moved to the opposite end of the conveyor do the following: a) Remove the Right Angle Guide by first removing the two screws that attach the mounting bracket to the conveyor. b) Then slide the guide assembly to the right and lift it from the conveyor. Note: The image, shown to the right, was taken from the operator side of the conveyor. It shows the Right Angle Guide s finger and the corresponding slot in the conveyor body. 2
Installing the Conveyor 1. Roll the conveyor up to the machine that requires stacking of its output. 2. Adjust the height of the conveyor to match the output end of the machine by loosing (counterclockwise) the two large knobs (one on each end), raising the conveyor to the proper height and tightening (clockwise) the two knobs one at a time. WARNING THE CONVEYOR IS VERY HEAVY. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT TWO PEOPLE WORK TOGETHER TO RAISE IT INTO THE PROPER OPERATING HEIGHT. A BLOCK OF WOOD UNDER THE CENTER OF THE LEG WILL HELP PREVENT INJURY DURING SETUP. Operating the Conveyor 1. Plug the conveyor into a properly grounded wall outlet using the power cord supplied. Turn on the main power switch located above the power receptacle. CAUTION THE CONVEYOR IS DESIGNED TO BE PLUGGED INTO A GROUNDED OUTLET. FOR YOUR SAFETY, DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUND PIN FROM THE LINE CORD. 2. Adjust the speed control knob on the front of the conveyor to obtain the proper speed. If the conveyor does not start check to see that the Emergency Stop switch has been released. NOTE: THE EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH IS ACTIVATED BY PUSHING IN ON IT AND RELEASED BY TURNING IT CLOCKWISE IN THE DIRECTION OF THE ARROWS. 3. If you are using the conveyor in the right angle mode (conveyor is perpendicular to the machine feeding it) then adjust the Right Angle Guide as follows: a) With the conveyor belt stopped, loosen the two ball rack locking levers [A]and raise the ball rack [B]. Place a piece of media under the ball rack, then lower, and lock the levers. b) Loosen the locking screws [C] and move the ball rack assembly in or out to center the media on the belt. 3
4. Feed stock through the machine and onto the conveyor to check operation. Troubleshooting If the conveyor should fail to run, check for jammed paper between the belt and roller. Also, check the fuse and motor circuit breaker and replace or reset if necessary. The fuse holders and circuit breaker are located on the rear of the conveyor, next to the power inlet. WARNING DISCONNECT THE POWER CORD WHEN CHECKING OR REPLACING FUSE! ALWAYS REPLACE THE FUSE WITH THE SAME TYPE. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY DAMAGE THE ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT BOARD. 4
