5.1 Drivers Licence...
Any person wishing to drive a vehicle, which is towing a trailer, must be in possession of a current
full driving licence with the correct entitlement. Provisional licence holders are not permitted to drive
a vehicle when towing.
Make sure that your licence adequately covers you to tow the trailer with your vehicle. This is
governed by the combined towing vehicle and trailer gross weights.
As this trailer is 750kg Max Gross Weight only a full driving licence is required to tow it.
If in any doubt, contact your local Police station or see DVLA fact sheet INF30 for further details.
5.2 Towing Vehicle Suitability...
The towing vehicle must be suitable for towing the trailer. Information on maximum towing weight /
or maximum train weight can normally be found in the vehicle handbook.
If the handbook is not available, you MUST obtain confirmation from the vehicle manufacturer.
5.3 Towing Brackets...50mm Ball
The towing vehicle must be fitted with an ISO standard 50mm tow ball, which is approved by your
vehicle manufacturer and has been professionally fitted.
Maintenance of the towing bracket, tow ball and fixings is most important. Regularly check all
mounting nuts and bolts for condition and security.
It is good practice to have the ball inspected by the supplier whenever your vehicle is serviced.
If your vehicle was first registered on or after 1 August 1998, it must be fitted with a tow ball and
towing bracket with approval under EC Directive 94/20/EC –Mechanical Coupling Devices.
4. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION
5. LEGAL ISSUES –UK ONLY

The ball must be mounted at the correct height for the trailer coupling. When connected, the trailer
must sit horizontally level. Do not tow the trailer if it is tipping backward or forward.
5.4 Vehicle Registration Plate...
The trailermust display an approved style numberplate with the towing vehicles registration number.
It is not acceptable to substitute the number plate with anything else.
6.1 Always use the jockey wheel to lift the trailer coupling on or off the towing vehicle ball. To raise
the trailer coupling with the jockey wheel, turn the operating handle anticlockwise until the required
height is achieved. To lower the trailer coupling, turn the handle clockwise.
6.2 The clamp is used to hold the jockey wheel stem either in the raised or lowered position. It is
vital that the clamp is functioning correctly to ensure the safety of the operator.
6.3 t should always be securely clamped, whether the stem is in the lowered or the raised position.
After lowering the trailer coupling on to the tow ball, make sure the jockey wheel is above ground
level before releasing the clamp.
6.4 When detaching the trailer coupling from the tow ball make sure that the clamp is secure before
raising the jockey wheel.
6.5 When maneuvering the trailer manually, never use the clamp handle or jockey wheel-operating
handle to pull or push the trailer.

7.1 The breakaway cable is connected to the front chassis and is designed to help prevent the trailer
from separating from the towing vehicle in the event that the coupling becomes detached. The clip
on the end of the breakaway cable should be clipped through a hole in the towing vehicle tow bar.
7.2 It is therefore important that you regularly check the cable’s condition and free travel.
7.3 If the cable shows signs of fraying or has become kinked, it must be replace before using the
trailer.
7.4 The towing vehicle must have a secure connection for the breakaway cable, which is strong
enough to withstand the shock load of the cable snatching suddenly.
7.5 In the event of the trailer becoming detached from the towing vehicle, DO NOT re-connect the
trailer to the towing vehicle until a full inspection of both trailer and towing vehicle has been made. It
is imperative that the reason for the detachment is recognized and remedied.
7.6 If the trailer becomes detached, the complete breakaway cable assembly, must be replaced
before the trailer is towed again.
8.1. Turn the jockey wheel operating handle
anticlockwise to raise the coupling head to a
height greater than that of the vehicle’s tow ball.
8.2 Reverse the towing vehicle up to the trailer
so that the coupling head is directly over the tow
ball.
8.3 Fully apply the towing vehicle parking brake
and switch its engine off.
8.4 Attach the breakaway cable clip to a hole in
the tow bar of the towing vehicle.
8.5 If a lock is fitted, insert the key into the lock
on the coupling head and unlock. Take hold of
the coupling head handle, move the release
lever with your thumb and lift the handle.
8.6 Once the handle is raised, an automatic
coupling lock mechanism will engage, holding
the handle held in the raised position.
8.7 Lower the coupling head by turning the jockey wheel operating handle clockwise until the
coupling head is in place on the ball
8.8 As the coupling engages, the locking mechanism will disengage and release the handle.
8.9 Double check that the ball is correctly in place and the release lever has re-engaged to lock the
handle.

Routine maintenance checks are very important in maintaining the full useful working life of your
Easiveyor conveyor. A regular maintenance program paying due attention to all the components
itemised in this Routine Maintenance section will reduce the likelihood of break-down and costly
downtime. Frequency of checks will depend on conveyor usage i.e. material being handled, hours
worked per day etc. Checks are recommended at regular intervals depending on the amount of
working hours that the conveyor is being used for.
A main feature in extending the life of your conveyor is thorough cleaning at regular intervals to
prevent material build-up particularly around the feed and discharge points (good house-keeping is
essential).
THERE ARE REGULAR MAINTENANCE CHECKS THAT MUST BE CARRIED OUT: -
1. EVERY WEEK (or 60 hours)
2. EVERY MONTH (or 250 hours)
3. EVERY 3 MONTHS (or 750 hours)
4. ANNUALLY (or 3000 hours)
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST
18.1 MATERIAL HANDLING
It is very important to ensure that your conveyor is operating within its capacity. If you are in doubt
as to the capacity, please consult your conveyor supplier. Overflowing and excessive quantities of
material on the belt will lead to material build up in unnecessary areas that will in turn cause damage
to your conveyor.
18.2 MATERIAL FEED POINTS
Inspect the feed points of the conveyor and ensure that material is feeding correctly onto the belt
and that there is no over flow or spillage onto the surrounding area. Any material build up will create
a hazard which will develop into a potential for conveyor failure and cause subsequent down time.
18.3 RUBBER BELT
Rubber belt and belt joints are classed as ‘wear’ items and not covered under the manufacturer’s
warranty. Regular checking of the belt, joints and tracking will help prevent any unnecessary
damage to these items and to the conveyor framework. Particular attention will need to be given to
metal clip joints as wear to the underside of the joint will not readily be noticeable from a surface
visual inspection.
18.4 ROLLERS
Intermediate top troughing rollers and return rollers will need to be checked regularlyfor free rotation
and any excessive wear. These have sealed for life bearings and will need to be kept free from any
material build up. Do not use thin spray lubricants (i.e. WD-40) as these will wash out the pre-
greased bearings. If external lubrication is needed, this should be done with a spray lubricant grease
(avoid any contact with the rubber belt).
18.5 HEAD UNIT
The Head Unit should be should be checked as per the maintenance schedule and visually assessed
to ensure that the drum is functioning correctly and that the lagging is not excessively worn. The
Head Drum and its mountings should be secure and in alignment with the conveyor and the motor
mounting bracket secure to both conveyor frame and gearbox. Checks should be carried out to the
inside of the side mounting plates to ensure that the belt has not been running out of alignment
causing the edge of the moving belt to rub and wear the plates.
18. CONVEYOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

17
18.6 TAIL UNIT
The Tail Unit should be checked as per the maintenance schedule and visually assessed to ensure
that it is functioning correctlyand that the drum is clean with no excessive build-up of material around
the drum and that it is running in the bearings correctly. This can be accessed by removing the tail
drum guard (and the hopper if possible). Ensure that the tensioning stud bars each side are clean
and operational and that the side clamps are tightly secured. The tensioning stud bars will benefit
from a periodic light greasing with a multipurpose grease.
18.7 JOINT CHECK
All conveyor section connecting bolts should be checked and tightened periodically as per the
maintenance schedule.
18.8 MOTOR & ELECTRICS
Carry out a regular visual check to ensure there are noobvious signs of wear or damage to the motor
and supply cables. Any wear or damage in these areas should be reported immediately to a
competent electrician to carry out further investigation and any necessary repair work.
18.9 GEARBOX UNITS
All gearboxes supplied are maintenance free as they are lubricated for life at the factory and the oil
should not require changing. Visually inspect for damage.
18.10 BEARINGS
All external bearings need to be inspected for any excessive wear and that they are secure to the
conveyor frame and in clean condition. All these bearings will need grease lubrication regularly. The
manufacturer’s recommended lubricant is a high quality lithium based grease of 2-3 consistency.
They will need to be checked as per the maintenance schedule.
18.11 COVERS
Top covers should be checked periodically as indicted in the maintenance schedule. It is important
that all fixings are securely tightened
18.12 BOTTOM COVERS
Bottom covers should be checked periodically as indicated in the maintenance schedule. Remove
the bottom covers as required to remove excess material that might have built up and been carried
around by the returning belt. It is important that all fixings are securely tightened after refitting the
covers.
18.13 BELT TRACKING
Belt tracking should be visually checked at both ends of the conveyor to ensure that the belt is
running in the centre of the drums and not running to one side more than the other. You may need
to remove any objects that obstruct your visual inspection. If the belt is running out of alignment
follow the belt tracking procedure as set out on pages 14 & 15
18.14 BELT TENSIONING
To check the belt tension on you conveyor, first make sure that there is no load on the belt. Ensure
that you are situated in a safe position prior to starting the conveyor to inspect the belt running and
that you are able to visually see the head drive drum on start-up of the conveyor. On start-up, first
check that there is no belt slippage on the drum. If the belt is not slipping, then repeat this check with
the belt running under its normal working load. Should you experience any slipping of the belt at the
drive drum, then increase the tension at the tail drum end by following the tracking and tensioning
procedure as set out on pages 14 & 15
18.15 HOPPER
Inspect regularly as per the maintenance schedule to ensure that there is no material build up in the
hopper and its surrounding area. Check thoroughly that there is no damage to the hopper. Clean
and remove material as necessary. Ensure all fixings are secure and tightened.

18
18.16 EMERGENCY GRAB WIRES & STOP STATIONS
All Emergency Stop devices must be regularly checked as per the Maintenance Schedule to ensure
they are functioning correctly. (i.e. activate andensure the conveyor stops). All stop unitsand cabling
should be checked visually for damage and that all fixings are secure. Any maintenance work
required should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
18.17 MOBILE COMPONENTS
It is important that all lynch pins are inspected to ensure they are correctly positioned and the safety
retaining pins are secure. Pneumatic tyres should be inspected regularly for damage, wear and that
they are inflated with sufficient pressure as indicated on the tyre wall.
18.18 HYDRAULICS
Visually check that there are no leakages or damage at hose connections, along the hose length
and the ram. Check safety lynch pins are correctly inserted and retained. If the conveyor will not
reach this maximum position, it is an indication that there is insufficient hydraulic oil in the system.
Next lower the conveyor to its lowest position, ensuring that the hydraulic ram is in itsclosed position.
Proceed to add oil to the hydraulic pump as necessary.
