Final Inspection Check List
The Chain Loop System requires an inspection before start-up after the assembly is complete and before
each use. The following are critical areas to be inspected.
1. Make sure that the main power isolator is locked in the “OFF” position and that the
only key is in the possession before removing any shields and inspection covers.
2. Check all safety decals and replace any that are worn, missing or illegible. See Pages 10-12 for decal
part numbers and location.
3. Check for proper chain tension and adjust if necessary. See Page 29 for full instructions.
4. Check that the discharge gates open and close completely. Remove the inspection cover from the
top of the discharge gate and make sure that the gate is clean inside.
5. Check the lubricant level in the gear reducer at the drive corner. See Page 17 for
lubrication specifications.
NOTE: The gear reducer is shipped dry and needs to be filled to the proper level before use.
6. Check the condition of the drive belts and make sure that they are aligned and tensioned properly.
7. Check that the corner sprockets are centered in the housings. Realign the sprockets and tighten the
set screws if necessary.
8. Check overall structural integrity of the Chain Loop System and make sure that all supports and
components are secure.
9. Check to make sure that the chain moves freely (this is particularly important if the temperature is
below freezing). Use a pipe wrench on the end of each of the corner shafts to manually move
the chain.
10. Make sure all shields and safety guards are in place before restoring power.
