STEP 1

1. Locate the four painted Conveyor Rails (ITEM 1, 2, 3, & 4) from BOX 1 and the four rubber Bumper/Feet (ITEM 5) from BOX 2.

2. Thread each Bumper foot into the threaded insert in each of the rails.

3. Locate the two unpainted Splice Channels (ITEM 6) from BOX 1.

4. Using twelve of the 5/16” x .75L black hex bolts (ITEM 7) from BOX 2, assemble the two Conveyor Rail assemblies by attaching the Conveyor Rail pieces (ITEM 1 & 3, 2 & 4) with the Splice Channel (ITEM 6), so that the Bumper/Feet face the same direction for each rail assembly.
   STEP 2

5. Locate the Drive Roller Assy (ITEM 9) from BOX 1. The Drive Roller Assy has the sprocket attached.

6. Using four 5/16 x .75 Hex Bolts, attach the Drive Roller Assy to the Conveyor Rail assemblies on the end with the Motor Mounting Cutout. Attach the sprocket side to the rail with the Grommet installed. Note roller drum side out.

7. Locate the Takeup Roller Assy (ITEM 8) in BOX 1.

8. Using four 5/16 x .75 Hex Bolts, attach the Takeup Roller Assy to assembled Conveyor Rail aligning its TruTrack™ Belt guide with the guide on the Drive Roller Assy. Note roller drum side out. Tighten the bolts only finger tight. (The position of this roller will be adjusted later in these instructions.)

9. Locate the Drive Gearmotor (ITEM 10) from BOX 3 and the four #10-32 x ½” Machine Screws (ITEM 11) from BOX 2.

10. Mount the Drive Gearmotor through the mounting slots on the Conveyor Drive Rail with the Sprocket side toward the roller, as shown in the figure.

11. Thread the four #10-32 Machine Screws into the threaded bosses in the Gearmotor. Do not fully tighten.

27. Mesh the teeth of the alligator splice. Check to see that the edges of the Belt are best aligned then reinsert the pin per figure. A pair of pliers may be needed to fully reinsert the pin.

28. Remove much of the slack from the Conveyor Belt by pulling the Takeup Roller Assy (ITEM 8) by hand, then tighten the 5/16” Hex Bolts. The Conveyor Belt only needs to be tight enough so as not to slip while in use. Over tightening the Conveyor Belt may lead to reduced life.

29. Locate the Routing Clip (ITEM 17) from BOX 2.

30. Wrap the Clip around the Gearmotor cord and insert it into the ¼” hole in the Conveyor Drive Motor Rail.
    STEP 5

31. Locate the unpainted Inner Chamber sheet metal parts (ITEM 18 & 19) from BOX 2.

32. Using eight #6 x 3/8” Sheet Metal Screws (ITEM 14) from BOX 2, attach the two Entry/Exit panels (ITEM 19) to one of the Inner Side Panels (ITEM 18). Note the direction of Heater Support Rails and part flanges of the Side Panel per figure.

CONTROLS OVERVIEW

RECOMMENDED INITIAL START-UP PROCEDURE:

1. Plug the Control Panel into a suitable power source.

2. Turn Belt Speed to 5. Flip the rocker switch for Conveyor Speed to the ON position to start the conveyor.
   Listen for any unusual noises. Check to see if the rubber edge guide is riding in the roller drum grooves.

3. Turn the Heater Chamber Power Switch to the ON position. The green indicator light will illuminate.
   Note: These are not production settings. They are intended for initial startup only.
   /// caution ///
   DO NOT operate Heating Chamber unless the belt is moving. Heat will damage an idle belt.

4. Verify that the heating element functions. After about a minute of operation, briefly feel just inside both the entrance and exit ends of the chamber. The area should be warm.
   /// caution ///
   The heating element is exposed inside the chamber and is operating at very high temperatures. Keep your hand close to the moving belt (without touching it). Note: Some smoke/vapor and odor may be noticed during initial start-up due to residual material from the manufacturing process burning off the elements.

5. Working temperature will be reached after a ten-minute warm-up. Conveyor speed can be determined by placing a small item, like a coin, on the conveyor belt and recording the time it takes to travel through the chamber. (For curing plastisol inks on thirts, 30 seconds through the Heater Chamber is a good initial speed to begin your evaluation.)
   Note: The speed and temperature of the unit may vary slightly with fluctuations in power/voltage servicing the equipment.

Process an item through the dryer. Evaluate the completed article according to your quality standards. If the equipment is being used for curing ink on garments, it is recommended to wash the processed garment as the definitive test.
The conveyor dryer is now ready for normal use and operation.

CONTROL PANEL MAINTENANCE:

Performed at initial installation, 30 days after initial installation, and 120 days after initial installation.

1. Turn OFF the power to both the Heater Chamber and Conveyor. Unplug the dryer from its power source.
2. After double-checking that the power is off, confirm that all electrical terminations inside of the main control panel are secure by checking the “tightness” of each termination screw (or wire nut as may be applicable) and then “tugging” on each conductor.

Routine Maintenance: Performed after the first week and every 100 hours of operation.

1. The belt should be replaced if it has any tears, voids, separations, fraying, or no longer rides in the roller drum groove due to excessive wear.
2. Belt tension: the belt will relax over time and tension may have to be adjusted by the instructions above.
