3.27 Adjusting the conveyor belt tension
IMPORTANT:
Do not overtighten conveyor belts. Use only enough tension to eliminate belt
slippage.

Both rollers on the belly conveyor and the
discharge conveyor are adjustable to allow for
belt stretch and tracking. If the conveyor belt
slows down or stops during operation, slippage
may be the cause. To eliminate slippage, tighten
the adjusting bolts on the conveyor equally.
This will increase the conveyor belt’s tension
and help to keep the belt centered on the rollers.
