Safety Checklist Safety! danger Serious personal injury may result by failure to comply with the following: Prior to any work on your conveyors, make certain that the power has been turned off and the belt is locked out. Follow other safety precautions outlined in the operator s manual. Be sure to wear all recommended safety equipment prior to engaging in any belt maintenance procedure. 1

Selection Proper Flexco SR Selection Guidelines Proper Selection for the Flexco SR Rivet Hinged Fastening System Flexco SR Rivet Splice = Fastener Strip + Rivet + Pin + Installation Tool 1. Determine Belt Tension. Most conveyor belting has a mechanical fastener rating. Care should be taken not to operate the belting or fasteners beyond their recommended ratings. 2. Measure Belt Thickness. Choose a fastener size which corresponds to belt thickness. If fasteners are to be countersunk, measure the belt thickness after skiving. 2

Proper Flexco SR Selection Guidelines 3. Measure the Diameter of the Smallest Pulley in your Drive. For tail or take-up of the self-cleaning wing type pulley, 25% larger diameter dimensions are usually required. Only consider pulleys over which the belt makes at least a 90 degree wrap. Selection 4. Choose the Fastener Size that is Appropriate for your Specification. Flexco Rivet Hinged Fastener Selection Chart Fastener Size For Belts With Mechanical Fastener Ratings Up To: Belt Thickness Range Recommended Min.

Armor wrapping protects interior wires. ACS Bare Armored Stainless Steel Cable: The same advantages as bare armored cable plus corrosion resistance. NAC Nylon Covered Armored Cable: Combines a durable armored steel wrap with a nylon covering for smooth operation and long service life. Nylon covering helps reduce pin migration and prolong pin life. Not recommended in wet, abrasive applications. NC Nylon Covered Steel Cable: Nylon covering helps reduce pin migration and prolong pin life. Not recommended in wet, abrasive applications. For R2 and R5 only. NCS Nylon Covered Stainless Steel Cable: For greater corrosion resistance. Not recommended in wet, abrasive applications. For R2 and R5 only. SC Bare Steel Cable: Recommended for abrasive or gritty material conveyance. SSC Bare Stainless Steel Cable: For conditions where corrosion attacks steel pins. For R2 and R5 only. 6

Proper Belt Preparation Belt Preparation Improve workplace safety and maximise belt conveyor performance by following proper belt preparation practices. BELT LIFTING A Safer Way to Lift a Belt Lifting a conveyor belt out of the way to do belt repair and maintenance can be a difficult and hazardous job. To optimise worker safety when replacing worn idler rollers or to lift and flatten belt for a splicing station, avoid pry bars and manual lifting with a Flex-Lifter Belt Lifter. Highest safe lift rating available: 1810 kg (4,000 lbs.) Can safely lift a tensioned belt up to the stated ratings Works on all types of belt, including troughed, flat topside, or return side belts Easily transported to the job site 7

Belt Preparation Belt Preparation BELT CLAMPING A Safer Way to Secure a Belt Avoid the problems and potential dangers associated with homemade devices such as c-clamps or lumber and chains. The Far-Pul HD Belt Clamp is specially designed to properly secure a belt and clamp it for safe belt conveyor maintenance. Built-in safety features allow a secure belt grip up to 25 mm (1 inch) thick Provides even clamping tension across entire belt width Load capacity up to 2.7 metric tons (3 tons) when used with two 1/4 metric ton (1-1/2 ton) come-a-longs 8

Belt Preparation BELT SQUARING Accurate squaring of belt ends is essential to optimal positioning of the belt splice and provides for better fastener performance. Unevenly squared belts can lead to uneven belt tensions, belt mistracking, spillage issues, and ultimately to splice failure. Belt Preparation 9

Belt Preparation BELT CUTTING A Safer Way to Cut a Belt Utility knives can t provide the same level of safety, speed, and accuracy when cutting belts. And clean, square cut belt ends provide for optimal splice installation. To minimize the danger of accidental injury during the cutting process, choose a Flexco belt cutter. Belt Preparation Electric Belt Cutter Power assisted belt cutting for rubber belts up to 50 mm (2 ) thick. 900 Series* Belt Cutter Manually operated belt cutter for safe, accurate cuts up to 38 mm (1-1/2 ) thick. *Patent pending 10

Belt Preparation BELT SKIVING A Safer Way to Skive a Belt Whenever possible, Flexco recommends skiving the belt in order to countersink mechanical fasteners. Skiving reduces the fastener profile on the belt, resulting in improved fastener/cleaner compatibility and increased fastener service life. The FSK Belt Skiver safely removes top cover for installation of recessed splices. Blade safely enclosed during skiving operations Portable and lightweight Ideal for rubber-covered belts with top covers 4.5 mm (3/16 ) thick or more Belt Preparation 11

Installation MSRT Tool Hammer Installation: Installing Flexco R2, R5, R5½, R6 Fasteners with MSRT Installation Tool 1. Square belt using centerline method. Cut belt at least 100 mm (4 ) behind old splice using a Flexco belt cutting tool. Skive belt when top cover permits. MSRT 2. Measure belt thickness from cut edge using gauge or tape measure.
