2. Unhook the master links at the end of conveyor belt,
using long-nosed pliers, as shown in Figure 4-18.
3. Unhook the complete belt link to be removed and slide
it out (Figure 4-19). (Do not discard this removed link
because it can be used for making spare master links.)
4. Prepare to reconnect the inner master links.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Before connecting the inner
master links, notice that these links have a correct
position. The master link (at the right in Figure 4-20) is in
the correct (horns up) position for inserting into the
conveyor belt. The link with horns facing down is in the
incorrect position.
