After adjustment, be sure to retighten fixing wing bolt(*1).
4. If it is unnecessary to change inclined-angle for a long period, turn fixing nut(*3) up to the position(*4),
i.e. fully.1
●Installation dimensions of standard portable inclining stand (BHF model)
- For machines of 5.6m or less in length
- For machines of 5.7m or more in length
*NOTE: Portable inclining tail stand TC
and TCT models:
-TC model: This model is used when
motor pulley is positioned on conveyor
upper side. Install it under the frame of
tail unit. (→See figure “Portable
inclining tail stand (TC model)” on
p.17.)
-TCT model: This model is used when
motor pulley is positioned on conveyor
lower side. Install it under the drive side
plates.
NOTE:
1. In above table, belt width is shown in cm in □ of type. (Applied belt width: 350-500mm)
2. Installation dimensions show standard installation positions.
3. For machines of 5.6 m or less in length, place motor pulley on lower side (tail unit side) in order to prevent
machine from toppling.
4. The maximum height H2(or maximum angle θ2) is a possible dimension of incline. When using conveyor
at a large inclined-angle, beware of material sliding and conveyor toppling.
●Caution when installing portable inclining stand (BHF model)
Keep conveyor head unit raised and install stand.

3-4. INSTALLING BELT FEEDER (OPTIONAL)
For S-CON®FLAT BFGS model (Fixed inclined type)
Belt feeder unit is delivered in separate packaging. Install it to conveyor main body following procedure below:
1. Changing installation angles of interlocking plates or interlocking pulley plates
For smooth material transfer between inclined conveyor main body and belt feeder, change installation angles
of interlocking plates or interlocking pulley plates depending on direction of belt travel, as follows. (Remove
chain cover in advance. After belt feeder installation, reinstall chain cover to machine.)
●Conveyor for downward use only
On both sides of belt feeder unit, upper fixing bolts(*2, *5) and lower fixing bolts(*3, *6) are tightened on
interlocking plates(*1). Only on feeder side, loosen upper fixing bolts(*2) and lower fixing bolts(*3). Then
remove upper fixing bolts(*2) only. To set interlocking plates(*1) at inclined-angle of conveyor main body,
turn them using interlocking pulley(*4) shaft as rotation axis. Once angle adjustment is completed, fix
interlocking plates(*1) by retightening upper fixing bolts(*2) and lower fixing bolts(*3).
●Conveyor for upward use only or for reversible use
On both sides of belt feeder unit, make sure that interlocking plates(*1) are set horizontally. Upper fixing
bolts(*2, *5) and lower fixing bolts(*3, *6) are tightened on interlocking plates(*1). Only on conveyor main
body side, loosen upper fixing bolts(*5) and lower fixing bolts(*6). Then remove upper fixing bolts(*5) only.
To set interlocking pulley plates(*7) at inclined-angle of conveyor main body, turn them using interlocking
pulley(*8) shaft as rotation axis. Once angle adjustment is completed, fix interlocking pulley plates(*7) by
retightening upper fixing bolts(*5) and lower fixing bolts(*6).
NOTE: 1. If endless belt is already installed to conveyor main body, remove interlocking pulley(*8) from belt
feeder unit. Put interlocking pulley(*8) inside belt, and then reinstall it to belt feeder unit.
2. When connecting belt feeder unit to conveyor main body horizontally, make sure that both
interlocking plates(*1) are set horizontally.
●Before installation
●Installation angle of interlocking plate
- Conveyor for downward use only
- Conveyor for upward use only
or for reversible use
- Setting interlocking plate angle at
half of conveyor main body’s

2. Installing belt feeder unit to conveyor main body
Insert both interlocking pulley plates(*7) into tail frame end of conveyor main body, and fix them with
attachment bolts and nuts(*9)(2 sets on each side).
NOTE: 1. If interlocking drive chain is not installed, install it to interlocking sprockets of conveyor main
body and belt feeder unit. When running conveyor, be sure to install chain cover.
2. In operation after setting up machine, if it is necessary to make material transfer smoother, be
sure to switch off power supply and loosen upper fixing bolts(*2, *5) and lower fixing bolts(*3,
*6). Then set angles of interlocking plates(*1) at half of conveyor main body’s. (See the bottom
figure on p.19.) For proper material transfer condition, make further angle adjustment if
necessary. Once adjustment is completed, retighten upper fixing bolts(*2, *5) and lower fixing
bolts(*3, *6).
3. Apply oil to drive chain every 3 months or every 1,000 operating hours.
4. For belt feeder with intermediate take-up, similarly install it to conveyor main body.
●After installation
(eg Conveyor for upward use only or for reversible use)
3-5. INSTALLING GUIDE RAILS OR GUARDRAILS (OPTIONAL)
For S-CON®FLAT BF, BFG and BFGS models
Install guide rails or guardrails by attaching brackets to conveyor frame with bolts and nuts, as
shown in figures below.
