Attach torque arm channel to bottom of conveyor. Some holes
may have to be field drilled in bottom panel to attach torque arm
channel. The position of the torque arm channel depends on the
incline of the head. When the head is on the incline desired the
reducer should still be vertical. The torque arm channel should be
placed so the torque arm from the reducer can reach when reducer
is in the vertical position.

Connect the adjustable torque arm from the reducer to the
torque arm channel. Make sure torque arm is mounted on the side
of reducer nearest to the torque arm channel. The torque arm
should be mounted parallel to the conveyor side.

Fasten the motor to the motor mount with hardware provided.

Connect the conveyor motor to a power source according to the
motor manufacturer’s instructions and recommendations. Due to
the hazards involved with electricity, it is recommended that an
electrician perform the motor wiring. A shut off switch should be
placed near the motor so that the system may easily be shut down
to help prevent accidents during maintenance.

Attach upper belt guard bracket and lower belt guard bracket to
reducer with hardware provided. The upper bracket should be
mounted to the upper holes in the motor mount adapter. The
lower bracket is two pieces. The two pieces should be mounted
together at slotted holes and then mounted to the reducer.
