3.1 Checklist
•
Check the model and size of the belt trainer. Is it the right one for your beltline?
• Check the RBP1 Belt Positioner to be sure all the parts are included in the shipment.
• Find the Information Packet in the shipment.
• Review the “Tools Needed” section on the front of the installation instructions.
• Prepare the conveyor site:
- Identify the point(s) of mistracking, expecting 50' (15M) of downstream and upstream influence.
- Position the unit in the center of the mistracking.
- Optimal location: No closer than 3' (.9M) and no further than 6' (1.8M) from a return roller.
- Remove old tracking devices.
