2.04 Aluminum Exact Width Stands Aluminum Exact Width Stands can be located anywhere along the length of the frame, as they mount directly to the conveyor’s accessory holes in the frame. Ideally, the stands should be placed as far apart as possible for maximum stability. When selecting the locations for the stands, consider the Drive and Mounting Package you have purchased. Some configurations will require the stand to be located a few positions down the conveyor from the Drive. The stand at the Tail End of the conveyor normally has no obstructions and can be placed as close to the end as needed.

Operating Position

n Prepare the Stand for Installation Shipping Position

a. For shipment, the stands will have their mounting bracket slid down the extrusion. Use a 1/2” Wrench to loosen the Hex Head Screws holding the Brackets and move them up to engage the conveyor frame, approximately 1 1/2” (or more for cleated belts) (Figure 1). b. If the stands are to be used with Aluminum Cross Ties, it is advised to attach the Gusset Plates prior to mounting the conveyor (Figure 2). Refer to Section 2.06 on Aluminum Cross Ties for specific instructions.

Figure 1 Cross Tie Gusset Plate

Figure 2

o Install the Stand a. Locate the bag of 10-32 x 7/8” long Torx Head Thread Forming Screws from one of the boxes with the shipment. There are four per stand. b. Line up the stand with the accessory holes in the side of the conveyor frame and use a Screw Gun with a Torx bit to fasten the stand to the frame (Figure 3).

2.04 Aluminum Exact Width Stands (continued) p Adjust the Height using the Leveling Feet

Hex Nut

The Leveling Feet on all QC Industries Stands are designed to allow fine adjustment and so they can be lagged to the floor. Note: if it is not feasible to permanently attach the stands to the floor or the conveyor is to be made mobile with casters, then Cross Ties or Angle Braces must be used. To adjust the stand height with the Leveling Feet: a. Use a large adjustable wrench to loosen the Hex Nut

Lag to floor here

Welded Hex Figure 4

b. Rotate the hex welded to the foot to the desired height (Figure 4). c. Retighten the Hex Nut to secure it in position.

Injury is possible if the stands are not lagged to the floor, cross ties are not used, or angle braces are not present. Never place a conveyor in operation until all proper mounts are installed and secured.

d. Frame alignment is one of the key items that assure the belt properly tracks during startup. Make sure the conveyor frame has no twist by using a bubble level and checking measurements from the mounting surface. e. Proceed to Section 2.05 for instructions on installing Angle Braces. f. Proceed to Section 2.06 for instructions on installing Aluminum Cross Ties.

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

2.05 Angle Braces When it is not feasible to bolt the Aluminum Exact Width Stands to the floor, they can be stabilized by use of Angle Braces. Angle Braces will only work with stands that are 18” or taller (e.g., part number 0182-18-21-WW). Angle Braces are shipped as a set, with one Right Hand Brace and one Left Hand Brace, with four Torx Head Screws, and four screw sets (Hex Head Screw, Flat Washer, and Square Nut). Square Nut

Before installing Angle Braces, the Aluminum Exact Width Stands should already be assembled to the conveyor.

n Install the Angle Braces to Exact Width Stands a. Start by inserting the square nuts in the stand leg’s channel at the base where the channel has been routered (Figure 1). Figure 1

b. Place the Angle Brace over the Square Nuts, and insert the Hex Screws and Washers into Square Nuts (but do not fully tighten them). There are four holes provided, but only two of them will be used. c. Using a Screw Gun with a Torx bit, drive in the Torx Head Screws into the top section of the Brace (Figure 2). The holes will line up with accessory holes in the conveyor’s frame.

Torx Head Screw

d. Tighten the Hex Head Screws so the Brace is secured to the stand, and repeat the installation for the Brace on the other side. e. Frame alignment is one of the key items that assure the belt properly tracks during startup. Make sure the conveyor frame has no twist by using a bubble level and checking measurements from the mounting surface. f. Proceed to Sections 2.08 – 2.12 for instructions on installing Drives and Mounting Packages.

Figure 2

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

2.06 Aluminum Cross Ties When it is not feasible to bolt the Aluminum Stands to the floor, the conveyor and stand assembly can be stabilized by use of Cross Ties. Cross Ties are sold in standard lengths, and are meant to be cut to length during installation based on the final placement of the stands. The Cross Ties can be installed once the conveyor has been secured to the stands. In one of the boxes of the shipment, there will be a bag containing the Cross Tie Gusset Plates and fasteners.

n Install the Gusset Plates to Aluminum Stands a. Insert two Square Nuts into each leg’s channel from the base where the channel has been routered (Figure 1). b. The Gusset Plate should be positioned over the Square Nuts in the channel and secured with the Hex Head Screws and Flat Washers (Figure 2). Although there are eight holes in the Gusset Plate, only four of them will be used. Figure 1

Figure 2

o Install the Cross Tie Extrusions a. Measure the distance between the stands and cut the Cross Tie Extrusion to fit with a saw blade that is appropriate for Aluminum (Figure 3). b. The Gusset Plates can mount to the inside or outside of the stand’s leg, or to the stand’s Cross Member if there is no room on the leg (Note: this will require disassembly of the stand to do so).

Cut Cross Ties to Length

c. Proceed to Sections 2.08 - 2.12 for instructions on installing Drives and Mounting Packages. Figure 3

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

2.07 Casters QC Industries offers swivel locking casters to replace the stands’ leveling feet for applications when conveyors need to be moveable. In most cases, casters will arrive already assembled to exact width stands they are to be used on. The leveling feet that are normally included with exact width stands will also be included in the shipment in the event they are needed.

n Install Casters to Aluminum or Steel Stands a. Remove the Leveling Foot from the stand by loosening the Hex Nut with a large adjustable wrench. Spin the foot to unthread it from the stand leg until it is free. b. Install the Casters by threading the 4 1/2” stem into the base of the stand where the Leveling Foot was previously. The Caster will have its own 3/4-10 Hex Nut (Figure 1). c. Once the conveyor is mounted on the stand, the caster’s stem can be used for final height adjustment, up to 1 1/2” up or down. Use a large adjustable wrench to loosen the hex nut, engage the swivel lock, then rotate the caster to the desired height by hand, and finally retighten the Hex Nut to secure it in position.

o Secure the System a. When the conveyor is not being moved or is in operation, the Caster’s swivel lock should be engaged. It is conveniently located over the caster’s wheel so it can be engaged and disengaged by foot.

Figure 1

b. QC Industries requires the use of Cross Ties or Angle Braces if Casters are used. Note: The width of the system should be no less than 1/3 of the system’s height (e.g., for a 36” high system, a stand assembly on casters should be at least 12” wide). When assembling, please make sure the assembly is stable for your application.

Warning: Moving conveyors with casters can create dynamic forces that could tip the conveyor. Use caution when moving a conveyor with casters.

c. Proceed to Section 2.08 – 2.12 for instructions on installing Drives and Mounting packages.

2.12 Heavy Duty Remote Drives Remote Drives are used when it is not feasible to mount the Drive directly to the conveyor. The Speed Reducer will ship assembled to the Remote Drive mount. The motor will ship in its own box. The Remote Drive should be hard-mounted to a surface in line and at the same elevation as the conveyor’s drive pulley (Figure 1), with a coupling used between the conveyor and Gearmotor that will allow for slight misalignment, so the bearings are not unnecessarily loaded. QC Industries offers two types of couplings for the Heavy Duty Remote Drive: a Single Piece Flex Coupling, and a Three Piece Flex Coupling. Both are sold separately from the Remote Drive. The Gearmotor has a 1/2” diameter round shaft with 1/8” square key.

n Installation a. If a Hex Extension Shaft is to be used (such as to drive several conveyors in parallel with the same shaft), select a coupling with a 1/2” diameter – 1/2” hex. Figure 1

b. If the Remote Drive is to be directly coupled to the conveyor, select a coupling with a 1/2”

diameter – 1/2” diameter. c. The Remote Drive must be rigidly mounted as well. The base has clearance holes for 5/16 screws. Note: for 56 frame motors, the speed reducer’s flange will protrude below the speed reducer mounting base. d. Finally, refer to Section 2.10 for instructions on how to install the speed reducer’s vent plug, and then to Section 2.11 for instructions on installing the motor. It is recommended to install the vent plug before the motor to have the best access.

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

3.01 Maintenance Foreword Managing conveyor life is both a comprehensive and important consideration from the day a system is conceived until the day it is retired from service. From a business perspective, maintenance is an essential activity for the achievement of optimal return on investment, as well as a key to remaining competitive in a hyper-competitive world. Like maintenance for many other systems, the maintenance of conveyor systems divides into three broad categories: predictive, preventive, and corrective. The obvious advantage of predictive and preventive maintenance is that downtime surprises can be avoided, and when action needs to be taken, all of the parts, materials, and timing can be arranged for operational convenience. To assure the highest performance for your conveyor system, QC Industries has combined a selection of high quality durable components and superior design criteria that support all aspects of conveyor operational effectiveness with the minimal amount of conveyor preventive maintenance. Preventive maintenance, such as the cleaning of the conveyor, replacement of conveyor belt and bearings will be regimented by the type of environment the conveyor system is subjected to, the number of hours in operation, and the amount of performance demanded of the system. Predictive measures, such as belt replacement schedules, periodic bearing replacement intervals, and overall equipment inspection shall be determined by the environment the conveyor is subjected to, the number of hours in operation, and the production effects of measures taken at the corrective phase. Maintenance, in general, affects all aspects of conveyor operational effectiveness and risks, not just system availability and cost â&#x20AC;&#x201D; specifically safety, operational efficiency, energy efficiency, product quality, and environmental integrity. The following sections are QC Industriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; requirements for assuring the conveyor system is always operating at the factory specifications with minimal production interruption please follow these guidelines. If any questions arise please call our customer service department at (513) 753-6000.

3.02 Belt Tracking All 125Z Series conveyors are shipped assembled with the belt pre-tracked from the factory; however, the conveyor tracking must be adjusted after conveyor installation. Follow the instructions in this section both for initial tracking and if you find the tracking needs adjustment over time. Failure to properly track the belt could damage the belt or conveyor and void your warranty. The belt is considered to be properly tracked when, while running, both edges of the belt clear all conveyor components along the entire belt path. The illustrations below provide explanations of correct and incorrect belt tracking conditions along the conveyor. If one or more of the incorrect conditions occur, the belt tracking needs to be adjusted to prevent premature wear. Note: some lateral oscillation of the belt from side to side is common, and is acceptable provided the belt edges clear all conveyor components. A B

3.02 Belt Tracking (continued) If you have determined from the previous page that your 125Z Series conveyor belt tracking needs to be adjusted, follow the steps below. Although belt tracking can be adjusted from several locations along the conveyor, there is an order of adjustments that QC Industries recommends. 2

Note: Most belt tracking corrections are made via the ZTrack idlers. Frames must be level for proper tracking.

n o p q

Make tracking adjustments at the Z-Track idlers. Make tracking adjustments at the drive end. Make tracking adjustments at the tail end. Make tracking adjustments at the full width idlers.

n Zâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Track Idler Adjustment Zâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Track Idler assemblies provide both belt tracking adjustment and tension adjustment, and can be adjusted independently of each other (Figure 1). Tracking adjustments made in this area should be made in modest increments, as they have an affect along the entire conveyor. Let the belt make at least two revolutions around the conveyor, checking the entire belt path for alignment, before adjusting more or moving to the next step.

a. Determine the side of the conveyor belt that has the mistrack condition. b. Turn camber adjust set screw counter-clockwise (threading out). Decreasing the Z-Track camber adjustment on that side will push the belt away from the idler (Figure 2). Wait for two belt revolutions around the conveyor to see if the adjustment corrects the issue. If not, move to the next step.

c. Loosen tension lock screw to enable Z-Track idler tension adjustment. Turn the tension adjust set screw clockwise (threading in). Increasing the Z-Track idler tension adjustment on that side will push the belt away from the idler (Figures 3). Tighten tension lock screw and wait for two complete belt revolutions to see if adjustment corrects the issue. Do not over-adjust tension to the point that the belt path interferes with the tops of the conveyor frames. (Figure 4). If this step does not correct the issue, move to the next step.

Decreasing the Z-Track idler tension adjustment on that side will pull the belt toward the idler (Figures 6). Tighten tension lock screw and wait for two complete belt revolutions to see if adjustment corrects the issue. f. The idler guard (not shown in figures) may have to be adjusted to clear the idler with excessive adjustment. It should never clear the belt more than 1/8”, as this could create pinch points.

Figure 5

g. The previous steps a. – f. may have to be performed more than once, and in other areas, as adjustments made at Z-Track idlers affect tracking in other areas. For example, the adjustments made at a set of Z-Track idlers will cause a reaction on either side of that adjustment location (Figure 7).

h. If the above steps have been performed several times without successfully tracking the belt, it may be beneficial to reset the Z-Track Idlers in their neutral position and restart steps a. – f. Refer to Section 3.05 Belt Change for directions on how to reset Z-Track Idlers to their neutral positions.

3.02 Belt Tracking (continued) o Drive End Tracking The drive end of 125Z Series conveyors provide fine belt tracking adjustment via the drive assembly jacking screws. These jacking screws either add tension to the belt or take tension off the belt depending on which way the screws are turned (Figures 8 & 9).

b. With the conveyor running, rotate the 1/4" Square Head Tracking Screw clockwise on the side of the conveyor the belt is mistracking toward – this will set the Driver Assembly at an angle and move the belt away from that side. c. For best results, make adjustments to only one side. Adjustments made in this area may affect tracking in others. The Drive End is tracked when the belt can make two full revolutions without contacting either bearing plate.

p Tail End Tracking The tail end of 125Z Series conveyors have single point belt tracking adjustment via the Eccentric Tail Pulley assembly. This idler creates small angles with its eccentric journals to steer the belt at the tail end (Figures 11 & 12). It is initially assembled in the “neutral” position, defined as the index mark in the 12 o’clock position, but may have been adjusted at the factory for belt tracking purposes.

c. Allow the belt to make two full revolutions to determine if more adjustment is necessary. On longer conveyors, wider conveyors, or conveyors running at slower speeds, tracking adjustments will take more time than on shorter and narrower conveyors. Let the belt make at least two revolutions before making additional adjustments.

d. The Tail End is tracked when the belt can make two full revolutions without contacting either side of the frame. When finished, tighten the Button Head Socket Screw to secure the Eccentric Bushing.

q Z–Track™ Full Width Idler Adjustment Full Width Idler assemblies span the width of the conveyor between a pair of connector plate assemblies. They track the belt by applying tension to it, and are designed to accommodate different adjustment settings on either side of the conveyor. This is accomplished by threading the adjustment set screws in or out accordingly (Figures 14 & 15). Full Width idler assembly adjustment set screw

If not, move to the next step. c. On the opposite side of the conveyor from the previous adjustments, turn the tension adjust set screw counter-clockwise (threading out). Decreasing tension on this side will pull the belt toward this side (Figure 17).

3.03 Adding Tension All 125Z Series conveyors are shipped assembled with the belt pre-tensioned from the factory. This process ensures that the belt has the recommended amount of tension to maximize the conveyor load carrying capacity. You should not have to adjust the tension of the belt; however, if there is a need to add additional tension (drive pulley slipping beneath the belt or belt elongation), the drive end of the conveyor may be used to increase tension. Note: over-tensioning belts adds unnecessary load to bearings, and subsequently will reduce the bearingsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; useful life.

n Add tension to the Belt Rotate Tracking Screws to add tension

Loosen before adjusting

Figure 1

a. Loosen all four 5/16â&#x20AC;? Driver Assembly screws (there are two on each side of the conveyor) one-half turn (Figure 1). b. Increase the tension by extending the 1/4" Square Head Tracking Screws until desired tension is achieved. On the drive side of the conveyor the tracking screw will push against the Drive Mounting Plate. On the opposite side there is an Anvil Tracking Block which the Tracking Screw pushes against. The screws should be extended the same amount on each side. If not, belt tracking will be adversely affected (refer to Belt Tracking in Section 3.02).

c. If after following these steps additional belt tension is needed, it is recommended that a new belt be purchased. Note: Although possible, it is not recommended to add tension to the belt via the Z-Track or Full Width idler assemblies, as this could adversely affect belt tracking along the conveyor.

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

3.04 Adjustable Guide Rail Removal Adjustable Guides are the only guides available on 125Z Series conveyors, and come assembled to the conveyor from the factory. Adjustable Guides are available in 3 heights: 1”, 2”, and 3”, and are available with either thumbscrew adjustment or set screw adjustment. The guide rails are supported by a bracket/cross block/adjustment rod assembly that come assembled from the factory on 125Z Series conveyors. Adjustable Guides must be removed for belt change. Please refer to the following instructions should you have to remove guides for belt replacement or other maintenance. Installation steps are opposite of removal steps.

n Remove Guide Rail from Guide Brackets a. Loosen all the guide rail/rod/cross block assemblies, along one side of the conveyor, from the vertical rods connected to the guide brackets, and slide them off vertically (Figure 1). b. Leave cross block assemblies mounted to the rails in their existing location. Try to keep guide rail assemblies intact when removing them from the conveyor by not twisting or bending them. This will prevent the rail sections from coming detached and aid in reinstallation. c. Lay guide rail flush on floor or other flat surface. Repeat for the opposite side of conveyor. Figure 1

o Remove the Guide Brackets a. Mark existing guide bracket locations on conveyor. This will ensure that adjustable rails will be reinstalled in the same location as before. b. Remove the guide brackets from the conveyor frame by unscrewing the Torx head screws (Figure 2). c. Repeat for opposite side of conveyor.

Figure 2

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

3.05 Belt Change When the belt becomes tattered at the edges, stretched beyond the tension adjustment limits of the conveyor, or has cleats or corrugated sidewall delaminating from the top surface, a belt change is recommended.

n Belt Removal a. Remove Adjustable Guide Rails, if necessary. Conveyors with Corrugated Sidewall belts will not have guide rails. Refer to Section 3.04 Adjustable Guide Rail Removal. b. Thread in the two square head set screws (Figure 1) at the drive assembly and reset the drive to its initial position, so that the drive assembly is resting solidly against the end of the conveyor frame (Figure 2). This will require loosening the four 5/16â&#x20AC;? socket head cap screws that hold the tracking blocks located on the sides of the frame adjacent to the drive assembly (Figure 3).

Figure 1

Figure 2

Figure 3

c. Locate the setscrew in the tail pulley at the tail end of the conveyor. Using a 3/32â&#x20AC;? Allen Wrench, turn the setscrew into the tail pulley so that the setscrew is flush with the outer surface of the tail pulley cartridge (Figure 4). d. Relieve the tension from the belt by rotating the tail pulley using the QC Industries Tail Turning tool or large screw driver on the slotted end of the tail pulley (Figure 5). e. Remove the tail pulley from the conveyor assembly by lifting upward on the tail pulley and setting it aside temporarily, making sure to place it where it cannot be dropped or damaged (Figure 6).

3.05 Belt Change (continued) f. Remove idler pulley guards from the Z-Track connector plates using a 5/32â&#x20AC;? Allen Wrench. There will be two idler guards per frame bend (Figures 7 & 8). g. Once these guards have been removed, the idlers will be exposed (Figure 9).

Figure 7

Figure 8

h. Relax all Z-Track and full width idlers to their most relaxed position by threading out the tension adjustment screws. This will aid in the removal of the old belt and installation of the new belt by providing the clearance needed to thread the belt on the conveyor frame and between the idlers (Figure 10).

Thread screws out

i. Bend the area of the belt where each idler is located and pull the belt out from underneath each idler; this can be accomplished by pulling on a cleat near the idler . Let the relaxed belt rest on top of the idlers (Figures 11, 12, & 13).

3.05 Belt Change (continued) j. Remove the conveyor from all mounts and/or stands. To ensure maximum safety while performing this task, QC Industries recommends at least two people for conveyors up to 8 feet in length; and 3-4 people for conveyors over 8 feet in length.

k. The conveyor may then be placed on its side; but should be placed on the side opposite that which the drive package is mounted (Figure 14). Note: The drive package does not need to be removed in order to remove and replace belt. Figure 14

l. Pull the belt out from the inside of the return flanges on the underside of each frame section (Figure 15).

m. Starting at the drive end first, remove the belt from the conveyor by sliding the belt off to the drive side of the conveyor (Figure 16 ), and if necessary, pulling it around the drive mounting package. Figure 15

n. Work down the length of the conveyor, continuing down toward the tail end (Figure 17).

o. Finish by sliding the belt off at the tail end (Figure 18).

3.05 Belt Change (continued) o Installing a New Belt a. 125Z Series belts have a rotation direction arrow inscribed on the back side of the belt. Ensure that the belt flow will be in the same direction as the rotation arrow indicates.

Figure 20

Figure 19

Figure 21

b. Install the new belt by first sliding the belt over the tail end of the conveyor frame and continuing on toward the drive end (Figures 19, 20, & 21). c. Tuck the belt up inside the conveyor frame, so that the belt is contained inside the return flange (Figure 22). Belt in Flanges

Flange d. Bend the area of the belt where each Z-Track idler is located and slide the belt underneath each idler pulley (Figure 23). Be careful to not pull excessively on the cleats or corrugated sidewall on new belts, as this could delaminate them from the belt top cover.

Figure 22

e. Reset the Z-Track idlers and full width idlers in their neutral position. This process will reset all previous adjustments so that the new belt can be tracked properly. This is accomplished by threading the Z-Track tension adjustment screw ten complete turns from the inside edge of the retainer slot, threading the full width idler tension adjustment two complete turns from the inside edge of the retainer slot, and leveling out the Z-Track idler camber (Figure 24).

Replace the tail pulley that was set aside earlier by sliding the tail pulley between the belt and the conveyor frame, making sure that the end of the tail pulley containing the setscrew is on the same side as the notch cutout in the conveyor frame for the setscrew. g. Snap the tail pulley into the notched area at the tail end of the conveyor frame (Figure 25).

Figure 25

Figure 26

Figure 27

h. Rotate the tail pulley on the slotted end until the setscrew is lined up with the notch cutout (Figure 26). i. Using a 3/32â&#x20AC;? hex-key wrench, turn the setscrew in the tail pulley counterclockwise so that the setscrew is flush with the outside of the conveyor frame (Figure 27).

NEUTRAL Neutral

j. Set the tail pulley to its neutral position, which is defined as the index mark on the eccentric bushing in the 12 oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock position. If adjustments are needed, begin by loosening the Button Head Socket Screw located on the tail pulley, which secures the eccentric bushing. Retighten the Button Head Socket Screw when finished to secure the eccentric bushing. k. The new belt must now be properly tracked and tensioned before use. Refer to Section 3.02 Belt Tracking.

3.06 Belt Care n Belt Cleaning Belts can usually be cleaned with general household cleaners, however some cleaners (that contain alcohols, acetone, MEK, chlorinated solvents, etc.) may attack belts. Never hose off the bearings or use solvents in these areas as this may significantly reduce bearing life.

o Physical Damage Worn edges do not hurt the conveyor's operation, as the pulleys are crowned; however, the cause of the edge wear should be determined. Scoring lines in the belt's surface could be due to product collecting between the frame's underside flange and the belt. If the conveyor has a wiper, product could be trapped at the scraping edge. Accessories, such as adjustable guides or bottom mounts could be improperly positioned and in contact with the belt.

p Camber Belt camber is the lateral oscillation of the belt, most noticeable at the drive end between the Bearing Plates. All belts have some camber due to the endless splice not being perfectly square. Crowned pulley and tracking adjustments should overcome the belt's camber, but in some cases will not (such as if the belt is excessively worn or has been exposed to an inappropriate chemical or solvent). Excessive camber is when the belt cannot be tracked without the edges staying in contact with the Bearing Plates. It is possible that the conveyor can continue to perform at a high level even with excessive camber, but if it is a problem, replacement of the belt is suggested.

q Belt Slippage Belt slippage occurs when the belt is undertensioned for the load, which could be caused by a number of factors: a. Excessive load on the conveyor. Refer to the Product Catalog to determine the conveyor's application capacity. b. Reduced friction between the belt and drive pulley. c. Belt elongation due to overtensioning. d. Excessive belt wear due to accumulating product. e. Belt elongation due to exposure to a chemical or ultraviolet light. If slippage cannot be overcome by either removing the condition causing it or by adding tension at the Drive End, it is likely the belt needs to be replaced.

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

3.07 Bearing Replacement 125Z Series conveyors use roller bearings which have been permanently lubricated with Micro-Poly solid lubricant at the factory. QC Industries recommends that these bearings be removed and replaced as needed (See Table Below).

n Bearing Replacement The replacement interval is dependent on the speed at which the conveyor is running and the environment. The chart below shows the replacement interval in years. Replacement Interval in Years 1 Shift 2 Shifts 3 Shifts 6 3 2 Example: a conveyor running in a 3 shift operation can go 2 years between replacements. Note: The replacement interval can be drastically affected by environmental issues such as moisture, dust, heat, and chemicals. Please consider these when determining the correct interval for your application. The conveyor is shipped with a H1 Food-Grade Micro-Poly Lubricant which is a mixture of polymers, oils, and other additives.

QC Industries 125Z Series Installation, Maintenance, and Parts Manual

3.09 Speed Reducer (Gearbox) Oil Heavy Duty Speed Reducers are filled with oil that will have to be changed after the first 1,500 hours, and then after every 5,000 hours of service.

n Identify the Type of Oil in the Speed Reducer In 2006, the type of oil used was changed. The type of oil in your speed reducer can be determined by the part number on the speed reducer’s nameplate. a. Speed Reducers with a “K” in the part number on the nameplate have the new oil and should be filled with Klubersynth UH-1 6-460 (# 096060) oil. Example:

F710-15PK-B4-J6

b. Speed Reducers with an “S” in the part number have the older oil and should be filled with Mobil SHC 634 Synthetic oil. Example:

F710-15PS-B4-J6

o Emptying and Refilling a. The oil can be emptied by removing the lowest pipe plug in the box so it can be drained without removing it from the conveyor (Figure 1). When the speed reducer is empty, the pipe plug must be replaced tightly to prevent leakage. b. The quantity of oil in the speed reducer is 3.3 fluid ounces. Note that this is the final quantity of oil, which assumes the speed reducer was completely emptied prior to filling. Lowest Pipe Plug Figure 1

4.02 Conveyor Warranty QC INDUSTRIES warrants that our conveyors are free from defects in materials and workmanship and fit for the ordinary purposes for which such goods are used, under normal installation, use and service for five (5) years from date of purchase or 10,500 hours of running use, whichever is sooner. QC INDUSTRIES will replace any defective part within the warranty period, without charge, provided: (1) (2) (3) (4)

The Purchaser gives QC INDUSTRIES prompt written notice of the defect, including the date of purchase and original purchase order number. The Purchaser will then be given a return goods authorization number (RGA#) which must be displayed on all labels and packing slips returned with merchandise. (See RGA section) The Purchaser pays for delivery of the defective part to QC INDUSTRIES for inspection and verification of the defect. The Purchaser shall pay all shipping and insurance charges for the replacement part from QC INDUSTRIES and the cost of installing the replacement part.

This warranty is limited to the replacement of defective parts. QC INDUSTRIES WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY ANY DEFECT IN THIS UNIT. This warranty shall not apply if any failure of this unit or its parts is caused by unreasonable use, lack of maintenance, improper maintenance and/or repairs, incorrect adjustments, exposure to corrosive or abrasive material, moisture causing damage, or any modification or alteration affecting the operation of the unit which is not authorized by QC INDUSTRIES in writing. This warranty shall not apply to the following items that are covered by their manufacturer's warranty, subject to any limitation contained in those warranties. (A) (B) (C)

Bearings Motors Reducers

(D) (E) (F)

Controllers Casters Belts (unless otherwise agreed to in writing)

CAUTION: Any attempt to repair such items may actually void the manufacturer's warranty. Any description of this unit is only to identify it and is not a warranty that the unit fits the description. Only an official of QC INDUSTRIES may make any warranties for QC INDUSTRIES. Any warranties implied by law are limited in duration to the five (5) year term of this warranty. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH HEREIN, QC INDUSTRIES MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY FOR FITNESS OR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Lost or Damaged Goods Shipments should be inspected immediately upon receipt for lost or damaged goods. Any loss or damage should be noted on the carriers receipt (or bill of lading) at the time of acceptance. If items are perceived to be lost or damaged after the shipment has been accepted, it becomes more difficult to file a claim with the carrier if the receipt does not indicate such loss or damage. Do not, at any time, request the carrier to return any items or shipment to QC Industries without previous authorization from our company for such a return. Please notify QC Industries as soon as any loss or damage is discovered and request the department that handles the lost or damaged goods. You will need to know a complete description of all lost or damaged items. If replacement items are needed, a purchase order made out to QC Industries will need to be supplied. QC Industries will then contact the carrierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local agent and request that an inspection of the items be performed. This is absolutely necessary. Unless an inspection is performed, the carrier will not entertain any claim for loss or damage. After the inspection has been completed, the carrier will notify QC Industries. If the carrier takes responsibility for the claim, a credit will be issued to you for the replacement item(s), including freight charges from QC Industries, where applicable. If the carrier does not take responsibility for the claim, a representative of QC Industries will contact you.

RGA Policy/Instructions: (1)

(2) (3)

(4) (5)

Promptly call QC Industries Customer Service at (513) 753-6000 and request a Returned Goods Authorization. At this time, you will be asked to answer pertinent questions relating to the returned items. We ask that you have the following information ready: (A) Name of distributor (if applicable) through which item(s) were purchased. (B) Name of the Customer and/or end user of the item(s). (C) Any/all purchase order numbers related to the item(s) in question. (D) Phone numbers and names of contacts involved in the return (if it becomes necessary that they be contacted later).

(If the item is to be replaced, a new purchase order number must be supplied by the Purchaser along with complete shipping and billing instructions. These replacements will be treated as separate orders by QC Industries and evaluated for possible credit only after returned items are received and evaluated. After the call is made to QC Industries, we will process your RGA and you will be faxed the RGA number to use for returning the item(s). RGA numbers will not be given verbally over the phone. Upon receipt of your RGA, you are required to return the item(s) within 30 days of receipt of authorization. After 30 days, the Return Authorization will be void if item(s) are not received by QC Industries. All shipping charges and freight insurance charges of returned goods will be the responsibility of the Purchaser. The RGA number must be clearly marked on the outside of all packages. It must also be on any paperwork, packing slips, or delivery receipts. If there is no RGA number visible on the package, the package may be refused and sent back at the Purchaser's expense. After receipt of returned goods, QC Industries will evaluate the item(s) for credit and take the appropriate action. Standard items that are returned in new, resalable condition will be credited for the amount of the purchase less 20%. Full credit will only be issued on items that are considered to be defective at the time of shipment from QC Industries and are evaluated to be under warranty. Please allow 30 days for credits to be issued.

Order Cancellation / Revision Policy If it becomes necessary to cancel or revise an order prior to the order being shipped, QC Industries reserves the right to evaluate each order that is to be canceled or revised and determine if any charges are applicable. A 20% restocking charge will apply if an order is assembled and ready to ship prior to its cancellation or revision and the order is totally comprised of standard stock items. If the order contains other than stock items, an evaluation will be made based on the status of the order. Additional charges will be included with the 20% restocking charge if any of the following conditions are met: (A) The order contains any items that are considered to be non-stock items and these items have already been produced by QC Industries or one of its suppliers. (B) The order contains any items that require special handling or assembly and these processes have been completed. (C) The Customer has specified that they will pick-up an order from QC Industriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; facility by a predetermined time and that time frame has expired. In this case, QC Industries will make an attempt to notify the Customer. If this cannot be accomplished in a reasonable time, the order will be disassembled and the Customer will be charged a restocking fee and any additional charges based on the orders contents as explained herein.
