5.3 PERIODICAL CHECK OF SAFETY COMPONENTS

Some components are fundamental due to their contribution to safety and therefore they

require periodical checks. These components are listed hereafter with the relative control

frequency.

5.4 DESCRIPTION OF MAINTENANCE INTERVENTIONSThis paragraph shows the maintenance interventions for each conveyor model described in

the manual.

ATTENTION! If not otherwise specified, all maintenance

operations must be carried out with the machine off and the

power supply plug disconnected from the mains. For safety

reasons, we recommend padlocking the master switch (see

following figure).

1 - BELT CENTRING AND TENSIONING OPERATION

If needed, proceed with centring and tensioning the conveyor belt using tensioners 1 and 2.

Above all, loosen the respective nuts in order to loosen the adjustment screws and centre the

belt using those same screws. By loosening screw 1 or 2, the belt will shift towards the

adjustment side (A1 - A2). Tightening it, it will shift towards the opposite side (B1 - B2). Block

the nuts once again when adjustment is finished.

Do not adjust tensioning excessively but just enough so that the belt does not slip on the rubber

roller.

Lockable general electric isolator. 24 months

Emergency button 12 months

Indirect contact guard (equipotential protection system) 36 months

Safety contactors 12 months

Eye check of overall status of safety guards located on the machine

which impair the operator from reaching moving parts.12 months

2 - BELT REPLACEMENT

In case of conveyor belt wear or breakage, act as follows for replacement:

Dismantle guards A.

Loosen screws 1 to remove guard B. Use the 2 screws to remove the belt tension roller C.

Remove the 3 Seeger rings from both sides to remove roller D.

Remove the head roller E.

Loosen the four screws from one side only, so as to lift the upper part of the conveyor belt;

remove the belt and replace it.

Reassemble all the components following the inverse procedure.

Tension and centre the belt as previously described.

5.5 INVERTER PARAMETER CONFIGURATION

The table below contains a description of parameters to be configured if it were necessary toreplace or reprogram the GH conveyor belt inverter. For practical reasons, only modified

parameters are indicated here and they are therefore different from standard inverter

configuration.
