LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE CONTINUED
CONVEYOR BELT MAINTENANCE
Standard belt for the #4 chain is moderate oil resistant that is impervious to moisture, weathering, or normal action
which can be used with chemical impregnated fertilizer or oil based additives.
• Inspect belt fastener occasionally for wear or “raveling” of belt grip area.
• Make sure belt connecting pin is positioned correctly as shown in Figure 3.
NOTICE!
Pin must not rotate. If pin ends are not
bent down and tight against lacing, the ends
may cut into the chain shield sealers or belt
wipers.
BOTH PIN ENDS MUST
BE BENT DOWN & TIGHT
AGAINST
ENDS
OF
LACING

LUBRICATION OF BEARINGS
Grease in a bearing acts to prevent excessive wear of parts, protects ball races, and balls from corrosion and aids in
preventing excessive heat within the bearing. It is very important the grease maintain its proper consistency during
operation. It must not be fluid and it must not channel.
Make sure all fittings are thoroughly cleaned before grease is injected. Points to be lubricated by means of a grease
gun have standard grease fittings.
Lubricate bearings by pumping grease slowly until it forms a slight bead around the seals. This bead indicates
adequate lubrication and also provides additional protection against the entrance of dirt.
FASTENERS
Tighten all screws fasteners to recommended torque’s after first week of operation and annually thereafter. If loose
fasteners are found at anytime, tighten to recommended torque. Replace any lost or damaged fasteners or other
parts immediately. Check body mounting hardware every week.
CLEAN UP
NOTICE!
High pressure wash can inject water and/or fertilizer into control components, causing damage. Use
caution when cleaning these areas.
Thoroughly wash unit every two to three days during the operating season to maintain minimal maintenance
operation. Hose unit down under pressure to free all sticky and frozen material.
It is important the unit be thoroughly cleaned at the end of each operating season. All lubrication and maintenance
instructions should be closely followed. Repaint worn spots to prevent formation of rust.
