Tracking Conveyor belt tension and tracking adjustments may occasionally be necessary during break in and normal operation to compensate for belt stretching IMPORTANT The conveyor belt has been over tensioned for shipping purposes It must be re tensioned before operating the sander Belt Tension To adjust the tension of the conveyor belt first adjust the take up screw nut Figure 22 on both sides of the conveyor to obtain approximately equal tension on both sides of the belt when taut Insufficient belt tension will cause slippage of conveyor belt on the drive roller during sanding operation The conveyor belt is too loose if it can be stopped by hand pressure applied directly to the top of the conveyor belt Excessive belt tension can cause tracking problems and result in bent rollers bent take up brackets and premature wearing of the bronze roller bearings or conveyor belt Belt Tracking Adjustments to tracking are made while the conveyor belt is running After the proper belt tension has been achieved turn on the conveyor unit and set it at the fastest speed setting Watch for a tendency of the conveyor belt to drift to one side of the conveyor If there is drifting tighten the take up screw nut Figure 22 on the side toward which the belt is drifting and loosen the take up screw nut on the opposite side NOTE Adjust the take up screw nuts only 1 4 turn at a time Then allow time for the belt to react to the adj
