Adjust the height if necessary (e.g., underlay shims). - Fasten the bucket elevator foot with 4 rawlbolts. - Lay the sieve (Figure 2, Item 6) and grating (Figure 2, Item 7) in the hopper. I II Figure 7 Risk of injury Secure the components against tipping over. Mount the central part - Screw the central part(s) to the foot part (10 units of M10 x 30mm). Do not forget the seal! - Note the ‘sight opening’ position. Risk of injury Secure the components against tipping over. Mount the head part - Lower the upper tensioning roller - Turn the tensioning screws downwards completely on both sides. 10 Figure 9 Figure 8 - Fasten the head part onto the central part (M10 x 30mm bolts). Do not forget the sealing! - Fasten the bucket elevator to struts (not in the extent of supply) in the blasting room. Risk of injury Ensure that nobody is working on the bucket elevator before switching it on. Switch off the installation electrically before starting work. - By means of an authorized skilled worker. - Wiring diagram: refer to the ‘motor’ installation. Caution: three-phase motor with integrated brake. - Inspect the direction of rotation. Feed in the belt and test Sub-section 4.4.1. the running Electric motor connection Make connections with the complete installation´s other components - Follow the other operating instructions. Filling the system with blasting material - The entire system must run, i.e., - Angle of the bucket elevator´s outlet: 45° min. inlet cleaner. - conveyor base if necessary, - bucket elevator, - cleaner, - filtering installation, - fill blasting material into the conveyor floor or hopper 11 Dosing of the blasting material . closed open Figure 10 4 Operating instructions Starting up and operation; putting out of operation after finishing work Switching on Within the framework of the complete system - Switch on the power supply. Switching off Within the framework of the complete system - Switch off the power supply. 4.1 EMERGENCY OFF Press the EMERGENCY OFF push-button switch 4.2 Within the framework of the complete system - Interrupt the power supply; bucket elevator is inactive. Putting out of operation for a long interruption of work or conversion of the installation Emptying Switching off Run the bucket elevator empty; incline the blasting material if it becomes lumpy - Close the blasting material dosing completely (Figure 10). - Run the buckets empty ( allow the buckets to turn for 2 rounds min.) Within the framework of the complete system - Switch off the power supply. 12 4.3 4.3.1 Special working steps Mounting the belt (A) Installing a belt -2 persons. - Aids: rope with a minimum length of 3m plus twice the bucket elevator´s height. Risk of injury Ensure that nobody is working on the bucket elevator before switching it on. Switch off the installation electrically before starting work. Inspection Are all buckets fixed onto the belt? Put the rope into position. - Allow the rope above the upper roller to hang down on both sides (Figure A). - Pull through one end of the rope under the lower deflection roller. - Pull both ends of the rope from the sight window into the central part. A B C. Figure 11 Fasten the belt onto the rope -Note the direction of rotation! (Figures A and B) Pull and guide the belt into the bucket elevator - Person above: ensure that the rope and then the belt are lying on the upper drive roller. - Person above: feed in the belt through the opening and simultaneously hold the other end of the rope taut, so that the belt does not slip off. 13 - Allow the belt to move downwards slowly, so that it does not get stuck or twisted. - Pull both ends through the sight window. Connect the belt Figure 12 1. Belt. 2. Radii of the connecting plates. 3. Upper connecting plate. 4. Lower connecting plate plus 3 M10 x 60 mm screws Risk of injury Ensure that nobody is working on the bucket elevator before switching it on. Switch off the installation electrically before starting work. Switch on the power supply Adjust the belt tension Figure 11C: tighten the screws on the bucket elevator head. Pre-tensioning Person above : retighten the screws (Figure 17 / Item 27) on both sides of the head. Person below: check the belt tension. It is correct if it can be pressed together by hand to between 40mm (1½“) and 50mm (2“). Check whether the belt runs well Check the re-tensioning of the belt and the belt tension Figure 13 - One person observes the belt running. - Another person continuously touches the motor switch only lightly move the belt in increments of 50cm. - Constant slight re-tensioning while the bucket elevator is running. The belt will centre itself during the running. - Check the belt tension at a standstill. -Repeat until it does not have to be re-tensioned any more. Mount all of the cover plates! - Covers on the head. - Sight window on the central part. - Covers on the base. Test run without blasting material - 8 hours approx. - Subsequently check the belt tension and the running again. 14 4.3.2 Removing a worn belt - The belt is worn if: + wear is visible on the material, + cracks are visible in the material, + on account of the rubber ageing after 6 years max., - 2 persons are essential, - Aid: rope with a minimum length of 3m plus twice the bucket elevator´s height. Working steps (1) Create freedom for mounting Move the belt until the connecting point is visible Slacken the belt Feed in the rope through the opening in the central part and fasten it onto the belt A second person will be needed from now on! Loosen the screwed belt connection Pull back the belt Advice - Close the blasting material dosing completely (Figure 10). - Run the buckets empty (allow the buckets to turn for 2 rounds min.). - Dismantle the covers on the head part. - Dismantle the sight window on the central part. Risk of injury Ensure that nobody is working on the bucket elevator before switching it on. Switch off the installation electrically before starting work. - Loosen the tensioning screws on the head (Figure 17 / Item 27) - Fasten the rope underneath the connecting point. - Make the rope taut so that the belt cannot fall in the foot part. - Ladder or scaffold. - Join the person at the cover opening on the head part! Through the opening in the central or foot part. - The person above guides the belt over the roller, so that the belt and the rope cannot slip down. - The person underneath releases the rope gradually and simultaneously pulls the belt coming from above out of the opening. 4.3.3 Mounting the head for repair work Working steps Mount the height adjustment Instructions See Figure 14 A-C - Screw the angle plates (46) with bolts ( 27) and nuts (49). - Screw the bearing (51) to the spacer plate (47) and the guide plate (48). - Put the shaft (11) through the bearing and adjust it with bolts (27) and nuts (49) horizontally. - Pull out the shaft (27) partly again, put the wheel (100) on the shaft and put it through the bearing again. -The spring must be in the shaft nut when it is put onto the wheel. - Fix the wheel centrally with the screw. - Screw the bearing´s fixing disc to the shaft. 15 49 46 48 1 27 47 100 11 101 51 Figure 14 A Figure 14 C Mount the motor Fix the torque support 101 - Screw the geared motor (1) onto the torque converter bearing (101). - Push both onto the shaft.
