Installation
A. INSTALL BAG TENSIONER MOUNT:
Figure 2.1
The closing head and the bag tensioner must be mount-
ed correctly in order to maximize closing efficiency.
Refer to figure 2.1 for locating and drilling the required
mounting holes.
When mounting a bag tensioner on another manufactur-
er’s conveyor, refer to figure 2.1 for proper mounting
locations. A bag tensioner mount and mounting hard-
ware is provided when mounting on another manufactur-
er’s conveyor.

SECTION II
Installation
B. MOUNTING THE BAG TENSIONER:
Figure 2.2 and 2.3
1. After attaching the tensioner mount, set the
bag tensioner in the mount as shown (Figure
2.1). The two mounting shafts slide into the
mounting slots.
2. Set the tensioner foward in the mounting slots
for most closing applications (toward conveyor
side). Position the tensioner at the back of the
slots for milk closing applications only.
3. Add the washer and nut to the end of the
mounting shaft. Tighten the mounting nut ”finger
tight” only at this time.
4. With the tensioner properly located in the
mounting slots, tighten the two No. 10 socket
head screws to secure the tensioner
adjustment washer to the bottom of the
tensioner mount. This allows the bag
tensioner to be removed from the mount and
then remounted in the same operating location.
5. Check to see that the point at which the brushes
mesh together corresponds to the horizontal
center line of the package to be closed. Adjust
the height of the bag tensioner by first loosen-
ing the mounting nut and then turning the mount
adjust gears (Figure 2.3) in the desired direc-
tion to raise or lower the tensioner. After the
proper tensioner height is achieved, tighten the
mounting nut to the tensioner mounting shaft.
6. Adjust the upper fence rod until its outside edge
lines up vertically with the side of the conveyor
frame (Figure 2.3).

SECTION III
Maintenance
Although the 1082J8S Bag Tensioner is virtually mainte-
nance free, the following preventative maintenance
schedule will increase life and dependability.
A. MONTHLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Inspect areas around the brush drive chains and
sprockets for bag material lodged between
parts. Remove any material from between the
sprockets and brushes or the ends of the brush
assemblies and the brush mounting plates.
Remove the gear cover to gain access to the
rear guide sprockets.
2. Keep the two drive chains properly tensioned.
Loosen the socket head screws at the discharge
end of the brush shaft. Place fingers on the
brush assembly as detailed in figure 3.1. Apply
enough pressure to take up slack in the
drive chain. Tighten the mounting screw.
Check the location of the of the screw in the slot
and compare it to the other mounting screw in
the other side of the brush shaft. Adjust if
needed to keep the brushes aligned.
B. YEARLY MAINTENANCE:
1. Check the drive gears and chain sprockets for
wear. The gears and sprockets need no
lubrication.
2. Inspect the bearings for damaged seals and
wear. Replace if either is present.
3. Replace the drive chain yearly, or when it has
lengthened enough to require 1/4" of additional
takeup. Follow the chain replacement
procedures listed below.

SECTION III
Maintenance
C. CHAIN REPLACEMENT PROCEDURE:
Figure 3.2
The drive chains, are preassembled at the chain
factory, and have no Master Links. The chain is
also lubricated at the factory. (stainless steel drive
chain excluded). The chains can be replaced with
out breaking the chain apart.
1. Disconnect power to the bag tensioner.
2. Remove the main gear cover.
3. Remove the two 10-32 socket head screws
connecting the shaft cap to the ends of the
brush shaft. Remove the two 10-24 socket
head screws at the rear of the brush mounting
plate and remove the plate from the tensioner.
4. Remove the three 10-24 hex head screws,
which fasten the chain guard cover to the
chain guard mounting block. Remove the
cover from the tensioner.
5. Turn the brush assembly by hand and work the
chain off the drive gear at the rear of the
tensioner.
6. Remove the chain from the tensioner.
7. Install the new chain around the brush
assembly sprocket. Work the chain through the
gasket and then around the second sprocket.
8. Replace the chain guide cover, the brush
mounting plate and the main gear cover.
9. Refer to part A. number 2 to adjust the tension
of the new chain before operating the tensioner
under power.
D. MOTOR RESET:
Thermal overload protection is built into the bag ten-
sioner motor. Should the thermal overload trip, reset the
motor as follows:
1. Allow the motor to cool. Remove power from
the bag tensioner to reset the thermal overload.
Apply power to the bag tensioner to restart the
motor.

SECTION IV
Adjustments
A. ADJUST BRUSH TRACKING.
Figure 4.1 and 4.2
The bagneck should be as flat and wrinkle free as
possible as it enters the closer. The two brush assem-
blies should be parallel where they contact to optimize
the tensioners ability to prepare the bagneck for entry
into the closer. (Figure 4.1) The brush mount plates
mount with two 10-24 x 1/2" socket head cap screws.
These screws are used to align the brushes as follows.
1. Loosen the two plate mounting screws on the
side of the brush assembly to be aligned.
2. Hold the brush mount plate in your hand.
3. Apply pressure to the back of the plate (opposite
the curved end) in a forward direction toward the
brush assembly (Figure 4.2).
4. Raise or lower until the brush mount plate is
pressed firmly against both mounting screws.
(The mounting holes are oversized allowing for
this adjustment) Tighten the mounting screws.
5. From the front of the tensioner check the gap
between the two brush assemblies and verify
that they are now parallel (this does not apply
to the tapered portion of brush assembly).
6. If needed, repeat the adjustment.
CAUTION: DISCONNECT POWER TO THE
BAG TENSIONER BEFORE CONDUCTIONG
ADJUSTMENTS.

Adjustments
B. ADJUST THE BRUSH DRIVE CHAIN(S)
Figure 4.
1. Loosen the 10-32 socket head screws on
either end of the shaft cap.
2. Loosen the socket head screws at the discharge
end of the brush shaft.
3. Place fingers on the brush assembly as detailed
in figure 3.1.
4. Apply enough pressure to take up slack in the
drive chain.
5. Tighten the mounting screw.
6. Check the location of the of the screw in the slot
and compare it to the other mounting screw in
the other side of the brush shaft. Adjust if
needed to keep the brushes aligned.

Be sure to order by Part Number and Description. Please
list the Serial Number of the machine for which the parts
are being ordered.
PARTS ORDERING PROCEDURES
IMPORTANT: The 1082J8S Stainless Bag Tensioner is available in right and left hand models. ALL ILLUSTRA-
TIONS DEPICTED IN THIS MANUAL ARE CONFIGURED TO A RIGHT HAND MODEL BAG TENSIONER. Parts
lists include part numbers for both right and left hand models when applicable. Determine the hand of the machine
so as to insure that the correct parts are ordered. Information is contained in the front parts section of the closer
manual to establish if your machine is either right or left hand.
When ordering parts ALWAYS:
1. Specify on the order the TYPE, MODEL, and SERIAL NUMBER of the machine for which parts are being
ordered. This information will be found on the machine’s nameplate, and;
2. Do NOT order by item number. Order by PART, or KIT NUMBER.
There is an option for ordering individual replacement PARTS, or for ordering replacement “KITS”. A KIT is an
option for related PARTS combined under one number. These KITS provide three functions:
1. To combine various PARTS that make up a machine model.
2. To provide options to the basic machine (e.g. UPPER FENCE).
3. To facilitate ordering and stocking of spare parts (e.g. apare parts page in the Appendix).
To order individual PARTS, be sure to observe the following procedure:
A. Identify the desired PART(S) by referring to the assembly illustrations (pages 5.2 - 5.11). Each PART is
assigned an “Item Number” on the illustration. DO NOT ORDER BY ITEM NUMBER.
B. Refer to the parts list. Locate the pertinent item number in the left-hand column. Opposite the item
number is the part number and description to be listed in the order.
C. Specify on the order the TYPE, MODEL, and SERIAL NUMBER of the machine for which parts are being
ordered. This information will be found on the machine nameplate.
As an example - on Page 5.3, item 1 is the KNOB - UPPER BRUSH MOUNT ADJUST. When ordering the
replacement part(s) use the PART NUMBER AND DESCRIPTION. Using the machine description located on
the nameplate, the order should specify;
“One Part Number 08-000566, KNOB - UPPER BRUSH MOUNT ADJUST
for the Bag Tensioner Type 1082J8S Model MR, Serial Number 1001"
