Maintain Equipment and Work Area
• Understand service procedures before doing work. Keep area
clean and dry.
• Never service equipment while it is operating. Keep hands, feet,
and clothing away from moving parts.
• Keep your equipment in proper working condition. Replace worn
or broken parts immediately.
ST-0003-1
Toxic Fume and Dust Hazard
• Remove paint before welding or heating.
• Avoid potentially toxic fumes and dust. Hazardous fumes can be
generated when paint is heated by welding, soldering, or using a
torch.
• Do all work outside or in a well-ventilated area.
Dispose of paint and solvent properly.
• Remove paint before welding or heating:
• If you sand or grind paint, avoid breathing the dust. Wear an
approved respirator.
• If you use solvent or paint-stripper, remove stripper with soap
and water before welding. Remove solvent or stripper containers
and other flammable material from area. Allow fumes to
disperse at least 15 minutes before welding or heating.
ST-0043-1
Operate Motor Properly
• All electrical connections should be made in accordance with the
National Electric Code (US) or Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
• Lock-out power before resetting motor overloads.
• Do not repetitively stop and start the drive in order to free a
plugged condition. Jogging the drive in this manner can damage
the equipment and drive components.
ST-0009-1
Stay Clear of Slide Gate
• Keep hands away from slide gate opening. Slide gates can crush
and dismember. Motor can start at any time.
• Lock-out power source before making adjustments, cleaning, or
maintaining equipment.

Cut Trough Bottom for Gate Placement
1. Start by locating the center of the proposed discharge location. Dimension “A” shown in Figure 3B.
2. If holes cannot be aligned, new holes must be drilled in the trough side bottom flanges.
3. Dimension “B” would be 2413 mm (95") for in-line gates or 1163.65 mm (45.813") for cross-cut gates.
4. Center this dimension “B” around the point found with the “A” dimension and cut the bottom as
straight as possible on either side of the center.
5. Weld the extra angle iron flanges provided with the gate to each trough bottom cut, as shown in
Figure 3B, so that the gate can be bolted to each side. Stitch weld edges 51 mm (2") long with
38 mm (1-1/2") spacing.
6. Remove burrs on the inside edge of the trough bottom.
7. Apply paint to welds on outside of trough.

In-Line Discharge Gate Limit Switch Installation
1. Using limit switches that are available in STD and ATEX or explosion proof standards, achieves
accurate positioning of these gates. Limit switches (B) are located on both sides of the frame to
detect when the gate is completely open or closed. (See Figure 3J.)
2. Attach the switch brackets (A) to the inside of the gate as shown using hardware provided.
(See Figure 3J.) Attach limit switch (B) to the bracket as shown in Figure 3J.
3. After switches are securely fastened, adjust lever arms so they come in contact with tripper blocks
on underneath side of slide plate.
4. Disconnect the power at the electrical panel and run the proper gauge electrical wire to the motors
and limit switches. (See Wiring Diagram on Page 22.) Be sure that the limit switches (B) are
adjusted properly before operating the gate.Turn the power back ON and CAUTIOUSLY operate
the gate, opening and closing the gate slide, making the necessary adjustments to the limit switch
arms to assure complete opening and closing of the gate.
5. Motor driven gates are available in both TEFC and explosion proof configurations.

Install Gate to Trough Bottom
1. Attach the gate to the connection flanges and trough bottom using supplied hardware.
2. Seal all connections with a silicon based caulk to make weather-resistant.
3. It may be necessary to drill holes in the trough side flange. (See Figure 3O.)
4. There are no carry-over bars to adjust, the carry-over feature is built into the gate.
5. On 305 mm (12") tall and 355.6 mm (14") tall conveyors, there will be some overhang 13 mm (1/2")
of the gate frame past the edge of the trough bottom.
