D. Conveyor Installation
1. Unfold the conveyor as shown in Figure 2-12. Then, begin
to slide the conveyor into the end of the oven. The
conveyor can only be installed from the end of the oven
with the drive motor.
2. Continue moving the conveyor into the oven until the
frame protrudes equally from each end of the oven.
Check that the crumb tray supports located on the under-
side of the conveyor frame rest firmly against the lower
end plugs, as shown in Figure 2-13.
3. When the conveyor is positioned properly, check for
freedom of movement of the conveyor belt by pulling it for
about 2-3 feet (0.6-1.0m) with your fingers. The drive and
idler shafts must rotate smoothly, and the belt must move
freely without rubbing on the inside of the oven.
4. Check the tension of the conveyor belt as shown in
Figure 2-14. The belt should lift about 1″ (25mm).
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE CONVEYOR BELT
.
NOTE:
If necessary, the belt tension can be adjusted by
turning the conveyor adjustment screws, located at
the idler (non-control) end of the conveyor. See
Figure 2-14.
