In case the conveying track has no steady running speed or height amplitude, but at the
discharge side a higher running speed or height amplitude than on the feeding side, the
spring angle has been wrongly adjusted to the gravity center angle (refer to 5.1.2 Adjusting
the required running behavior or the synchronism of the linear feeder track). In this case
proceed as follows:
-

In case the conveying track has no steady running speed or height amplitude, but at the
feeding side a higher running speed or height amplitude than at the discharge side, the spring
angle is wrongly adjusted to the gravity center angle (refer to 5.1.2 Adjusting the required
running behavior or the synchronism of the linear feeder track). In this case proceed as
follows:
-

If the running behavior is unsteady at a steady conveying track speed and if the material to
be transported jumps too much between bearing surface and cover, the gravity center angle
and the adjusted spring angle of the total system is too large and consequently the height
amplitude too high. In this case proceed as follows:
-
-
If the running behavior is unsteady especially at material to be conveyed with large surface
or which is fouled by oil, the gravity center angle and the adjusted spring angle of the total
system is too small. The height amplitude is too low.

The control unit or the connecting terminal box may only be
opened by an electrician. Before opening the a.m. devices, the
mains plug must be unplugged.
WARNING
Adjust the spring angle larger at all spring assemblies
Displace the counterweight "F" against running direction
Install additional weight plates at the counterweight
Install additional weight "G" into the oscillating profile
Adjust the spring angle smaller at all spring assemblies
Displace the counterweight "F" in running direction
Dismount additional weight plates at the counterweight
Dismount additional weight "G" from the oscillating profile
Change the gravity center angle (make it more "flat"), by displacing the counterweight
"F" against the running direction, installing additional weight plates at the counter
weight, installing an additional weight in the oscillating profile and choosing a lighter
design for the conveying track if necessary.
Adjust the spring angle according to the gravity center angle.
