3Understand the performance Always be alert while

for caution. Check the bearings Using a metal
tip check if the conveyor belt is making noise.
If it runs smoothly you can hardly hear any
sound. Keep the tools in place While fixing a
Hytrol conveyor keep a 9/16 wrench, Leatherman
type and ½ wrench. Most of your problem will be
solved using multi-tools.
4Check photo eyes Most common problem that arises
could be due to a partially aligned photo eyes.
Even though the photo eye is not aligned properly
it can still reflect the beam. Remember that a
photo eye positioned at the center of the
reflector means it is properly aligned. In case
it is sticking to one edge there is always a risk
of it falling off. Check the switches Make
sure that the switch of the motor power is turned
off.

not able to figure out the glitch. Stick a note
in the place where the issue was noted so that
you can identify the location next time when the
same thing happens and you can fix it
quickly. Take adequate notes on the problems
that occurred. The more information you gather
about the machine, you are aware of its
functioning. You can also snap some pictures or
take a video of the problem. It can help present
the problem in a better way.
