Maintenance
DISCONNECT AND LOCK OUT ALL ELECTRICAL POWER
BEFORE MAINTENANCE.
Regularly scheduled maintenance can greatly increase the life of your equipment and
reduce downtime. A good maintenance program includes general housekeeping, adequate
periodic lubrication, chain tension adjustment, and periodic inspection. Remember to
check the conveyor immediately if any unusual noise or vibration is detected.
1. Bearings are greased at the factory and do not need to be greased prior to start
up. Grease all bearings every 800 - 1000 hours after start up. While the unit is
running use only enough grease until you can see the fresh grease at the seals.
If you cannot lubricate the bearings while the unit is running, do it immediately
upon shut down while the bearing is still warm. Do not grease a cold bearing.
2. Be sure to maintain the reducer as specified by the manufacturer. Follow the
manufacturers recommendations for periodic oil level inspection and oil changes.
3. Check the conveyor chain frequently for buckling or kinking while under
load. Adjust the chain tension as required. Once the maximum take-up position
is reached it will be necessary to remove some chain links. Establish a schedule
for checking the chain tension. MFS/YORK/STORMOR recommends checking
the tension at least once a quarter following the initial break-in period.
4. Oil motor every 1000 hours or once yearly if equipped with oil holes or
grease unit if zerks are available.
5. Check the V-belt drive after 10, 30, 100 and every 300 hours, or twice yearly
thereafter. Refer to figure (a) for correct belt tension. The best belt tension for
a V-belt drive is the lowest tension at which the belts will not slip under the
highest load condition.
6. Check for deterioration or looseness of any bolts or fasteners.
7. Check for worn, damaged or missing UHMW paddles.
8. Check the sprocket hub bolts and set screws after 8 - 10 hours of operation
and on a regular interval thereafter.
9. Check that all guards are properly located and installed.

10230012 10-02
Grain Dust Explosions

Any facility that stores and handles any type of grain is susceptible to a grain
dust explosion. Grain dust is not dirt. It is not inert, but tightly flammable
and can be very explosive in a confined area. Seven elements must work
together to produce a potentially deadly explosion.
1. Air - Air must be present to provide the oxygen necessary for combustion.
2. Fuel - In this case the fuel is the grain dust. The finer the dust, the easier
it is to ignite.
3. Suspension - A pile of grain dust will not explode, it must be suspended in air.
4. Minimum Concentration - There must be a minimum concentration of
grain dust in suspension in the air. Current tests seem to indicate that
minimum concentration is about 0.4 oz/ft 2.
5. Low moisture - The grain dust must be of a relatively low moisture
content. Ambient air moisture or relative humidity, has no bearing on the
potentiality of an explosion.
6. Ignition Source - The ignition source could come from a fire, an overheated
bearing, a spark, welding or cutting sparks or debris, hot metal, electric
failure or other similar sources.
7. Confined Area - An explosive action must take place within a confined area.
Recognizing this hazard, MFS/YORK/STORMOR believes that we all need
to work together to prevent grain dust explosions in order to protect lives,
jobs, property, and profits. A number of preventive measures can be taken to
lessen the likelihood of an explosion. Following are some suggested measures.
CONTROL THE DUST AND THE IGNITION SOURCE

1. There are precautions you can take to control the dust!
a. Employ methods to clean the grain to reduce the fines.
b. Use equipment to minimize the breakage, such as decelerators. Corn
that is broken exposes the starch, the most explosive element of grain.
c. Use an outside bag filter to capture the dust.
d. Use an air system on the bucket elevator to reduce the dust within the leg.
e. Spraying edible mineral oil on the grain significantly reduces the dust
content of the grain.
10230012 10-02
f. Paint the interior equipment with a coating that is slick, not allowing
the dust to accumulate.
g. Enclose all horizontal drag or belt conveyors not allowing the dust to escape.
2. Control the ignition source
a. Apply a no smoking policy in all potentially hazardous areas.
b. Use only explosion proof trouble lights.
c. All welding and cutting is to take place on the outside of the facility.
d. Properly lubricate bearings on all equipment at the required intervals.
e. Use magnets to trap metal that might be mixed in with the grain.
f. Check the lagging on the bucket elevator head and replace it if it is
worn or smooth.
g. Use secondary safety devices such as heat detectors on bearings,
motion monitors or the boot shaft and limit switches to shut down
the system if the leg is choked. Make sure all electrical wiring, lights
and outlets meet local codes (never jog a checked leg).
GRAIN DUST EXPLOSION MYTHS

Throughout the years several myths have surrounded grain dust explosions.
These are some of the most common:
1. Grain dust explosions do not occur in times of high humidity.
False: Dust explosions have occurred during rain storms.
2. Grain dust explosions do not occur in wooden elevators. False
3. Grain dust explosions do not occur in small country elevators.
False: 70%-80% of grain elevator explosions occur in small country terminals.
4. There are only 2 explosions that occur, a primary and a secondary.
False: Up to 13 explosions have been documented during one incident.
Remember: Good housekeeping and safety procedures will help

protect lives, jobs, property and profits.
10230012 10-02
Lock - Out
FOLLOW A PROPER LOCKOUT PROCEDURE!
10
This suggested procedure must be performed EVERY TIME your drag

conveyor is to be worked on. Stick with these steps and they will assist in
preventing accidents.
1. Shut down the conveyor in a normal manner.
2. Shut off energy to the unit at the main power source.
3. Turn the power switch back on to confirm that power has been deactivated.
4. Attempt to restart the conveyor to guarantee that the power is shut off
and then return the switch to the off position.
5. Using your own lock, lockout all (other) energy sources which could
provide any power to the conveyor.
6. With your lock in place test the disconnect to make sure the power cannot
be restored.
7. Make absolutely certain that the power cant be supplied by any means to
the conveyor.
8. All authorized personnel must put his/her own personal lock on the switch
to lock it in the off position. Everyone must use only his or her own
personal key.
9. Nobody is to return power to the conveyor until all work on the unit
has been completed and, all locks have been removed.
Company management needs to look for maintenance or other employees
working on the equipment without following the proper lock out procedure.
Management also needs to look for any cover or guard not in its proper
place. It is the responsibility of everyone to report any missing grates, guards,
equipment failures, or failures to lock out. Make sure that no cover is removed
unless power is locked out.
SAFETY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS

Please be free to contact the engineering department at MFS/YORK/STORMOR
with any specific safety needs surrounding your drag conveyor or its use!
10230012 10-02
Operating Safety
Follow these FOUR BASIC SAFETY RULES for your conveyor
to make sure that accidents do not occur! Make sure that everyone working
with or around your conveyor follows these rules!
11
1. Be sure that all covers, grates, and guards are in place and securely
fastened before operating!
2. Never step or walk on conveyor covers, grates, or guards!
3. Lock out all power before removing covers, grates or guards! Secure
all chains and belts so that they cant move before working on any
part of your bucket elevator or conveyor.
4. Dont modify or redesign your conveyor without first obtaining written
approval from MFS/YORK/STORMOR.
Following these 4 basic safety rules is a proven way to reduce accidents! Be
sure to provide all employees working on or near your conveyor with effective
safety training, including management.
It is ok to add extra safety rules for your job site but DO NOT SUBSTITUTE
other safety procedures for the 4 safety rules! Following the safety rules
given for the safe use of your conveyor requires a commitment at all levels
within your company.
SECONDARY SAFETY DEVICES

Devices such as interlock switches, may be helpful but are not fail safe and
should not be substituted for a proper lock out procedure. Do not rely on a switch
that can fail, can lose adjustment or can be bypassed. A proper lock-out procedure
will prevent accidents.
REMEMBER!
There is no substitute for a commitment to safety!

Drag Conveyor Assembly

SUPPORT
Assembly
This conveyor requires support. It is not self supporting.

It isnt designed to be part of any truss system.
PREPARING FOR CONSTRUCTION

Before construction study this entire manual. Also study any applicable
documents (including but not limited to extra construction information
provided with some units, OSHA Regulations, and National Electric Code).
SEE THE PACKING LIST

Your conveyor has been carefully checked before shipment. However, you should check
your shipment upon arrival to insure it is complete. Distribute the parts in an orderly
fashion at the construction site to facilitate later assembly. Use the packing list that is
provided with the shipment to verify that all parts have been received.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Actual conveyor construction will vary between contractors depending on
available equipment, crew experience and personal preference. However, we
suggest the following procedure:
1. Place and completely assemble supporting structures.
2. Connect the basic components using splices.
3. Check for alignment between sections. Then add the chain and flight.
4. Perform initial chain tightening, tensioning, and adjustment.
5. Attach the reducer, and drive assembly.
6. Add inlet transitions.
7. Do field wiring.
8. Check for loose fasteners and try the operation of the conveyor without material.
9. Conclude with any necessarry finishing touches.
Never weld the conveyor to support structures. Always bolt to allow for
replacement of components and realignment after possible structure settling.
10230012 10-02
19
It is strongly advised that a generous amount of caulking compound be

applied to the mating flange surfaces of each basic component before
assembly. This is done to make the conveyor water and dust tight.
20
assemble support structures
have the sections set out in order
Be sure that support structures are in

place and completely assembled.
Check that all the conveyor sections are

set out next to the place of installation in
the correct order of placement.
The conveyor body is normally shipped pre-assembled but can be

shipped knocked down. The unit is made to self align as it is put
together. When constructing the main components check for alignment
using a string along side the conveyor and try to make the joints flush
(especially the bottoms). Do this so that paddles brush less against the
side and vibration is lessened.
3
bolt intermediate sides to the bottom
If your conveyor was not assembled
when it came, begin the assembly of the
intermediate sections by bolting the
intermediate sides to the intermediate
bottom using 3/8 dia X 1 bolts, lock
washers, and hex nuts. In doing so see
that the bottom has the proper offset (see
page 21) from the sides. This offset is

made up at the head and tail ends of the
conveyor. Before tightening the sides to
the bottom, see that the sides are square
and parallel to each other, leaving out
the end bolts and using drift pins will
assure alignment of the bottom rows of
holes. Torque the nuts at 240 in-lbs.
Check that the component sides are square and parallel to each other.

When intermediate discharges are used, some carry-over of the conveying

material results. The term carry-over refers to the few kernels of grain which
ride across the intermediate discharges on the chain assembly. The amount of
carry-over is approximately one tenth of one percent of the conveyed material.
When there is no gate mechanism at the final discharge, the carry-over is
simply discharged. If mixing of grain is not desired, YORK advises installing
a gate at the final discharge and carry-back cups on every other paddle.

Start Up and Operation

PRE-START UP INSPECTION
Prior to operating the drag conveyor, check all areas for SAFETY and machine
damage which could have happened during construction. Then follow this
step by step procedure for initial start-up and operation exactly, paying close
attention to the caution statements.
44
A . Disconnect and lock out all electrical power (see page 10).
B. Check entire conveyor for loose bolts, construction tools, construction
debris and any other material not related to the conveying or material
handling process and remove before start-up.
C. Check for proper chain and paddle direction. Check the chain tension
and adjust it if necessary.
D. Check to see that all appropriate decals are present on the conveyor.
(see page 12 for decal identification.)
E. Has the drag conveyor been properly aligned?
F. Check all set screws in drive sheaves, head and tail sprockets, shaft
bearings (see the table on the following page) and gear reducer.
G. Check lubrication of gear reducer. Reducer is shipped less oil.
START UP AND COVER / ACCESSORY INSTALLATION

A. Connect electrical power, run conveyor empty, check v-belt alignment,
and check all set screws on sprockets, v-belts, drives, etc. Operate the
conveyor empty under power for a period of time. Keep personnel away
from moving parts. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power.
Make any needed adjustments.
B. Check and operate all discharge gates to see that they open and close
properly. Also check all special accessories for fit and operation.
C. Children and unauthorized persons should not have access to
the electric controls.
D. Are pits designed to prevent personal injury?
E. Has the electrical equipment been installed to meet safety
codes? This includes explosion proof equipment where used.
F. After completing the start-up and all adjustments are set for operation,
finish the assmebly by installing the rest of the covers and any
accessory components.
G. Reconnect electrical power.
10230012 10-02
OPERATING THE CONVEYOR

Since the drag conveyor has been previously operated without material, it may
now be tested under load. It is suggested that the flow systems be checked next.
Allow only a small amount of grain to enter the drag conveyor. Check that the
material can flow through the system, connections, valves, distributors, etc. Once
all flow paths have been checked, the drag conveyor may be loaded to capacity.
CHECK THE DRAG CONVEYOR FOR:

A. Electrical current draw on the motor
AN INSPECTION OF THE CONVEYOR IS SUGGESTED AFTER THE

FIRST 8 - 10 HOURS OF OPERATION. Inspection should include:
B. Inspect motor drive for looseness of pulleys, sprockets, belts, chains
or torque arm.
C. Check for oil leakage or overheating of the gear reducer.
D. Check head and tail sprocket hub bolts and set screws

Chain Analysis
The following material is designed to be used as an aid in analyzing
failures of steel pintle chains.
49
WHY FAILURE OCCURS?
There are many different reasons a chain
can fail in a piece of equipment. Some
reasons may be related to the chain
itself, but many reasons may be related
to other components of the system. A
failure of one interacting component
such as a sprocket, attachment, or a
variety of others can cause severe

damage to the chain. Such chain damage
becomes a symptom of another problem
and should not be considered a problem
of itself. This report is designed to help
analyze failures so that the real problems
may be corrected on a timely basis.
attachment
barrel
pin
side - bar
CHAIN SECTION ILLUSTRATION
The following three pages show examples of typical chain

failures and what must be done to correct each failure.
10230012 10-02
CHAIN FAILURE
Check if the chain is worn out. By

rotating the link to expose the pin
surface, wear can be seen. Fig. a gives
an example of a worn out pin. Wear can
be accelerated by both corrosion and
abrasion. Corrosion can be seen when
there is a great deal of pitting and rust.
Abrasive conditions usually leave a
smooth surface but with many scratches,
particularly on the wearing surface of
the pin. Also, as a chain wears it grows
in length, sometimes called elongation.
Checking the length of the chain is a
good way of checking how much wear
has occurred.
50
Normally a 50-link section of 2.25-inch

pintle chain should average 113 inches
(2870 mm) when measured under a 100-lb
(45 kg) load. When the chain wears to 117
inches (2970 mm) the chain should be
considered completely worn out and ready
for replacement. Below is a chart for pintle
chains used by MFS/YORK/STORMOR
conveyors. Worn out measurements are
based on 3.5% elongation.
wear
New and Worn Chain Lengths

(length of 50 links)
PIN WEAR
TENSILE FAILURE
A tensile failure occurs when a single

pull on the chain is great enough to
pull the chain apart. Normally the
barrel splits open as shown in fig. b,
page 51. Sometimes it is accompanied
by elongated holes and turned pins. A
tensile failure normally occurs under

a severe overload when a chain load
approaches five times what is normally
anticipated. However it may also occur
when the chain is so excessively worn
that even normal loads cause breakage.
10230012 10-02
rotated pin
Some causes of severe overload can be

jams. Freezing of the load to the
conveyor bottom, or a stone or other
material becoming lodged between the
chain and sprocket, or an incorrect
sprocket profile.

split barrel
51
TENSILE FAILURE
METAL FATIGUE
Sometimes an overload is not enough

to cause tensile failure. However,
continuous running in overloaded
conditions may cause metal fatigue. A
typical example of metal fatigue is
shown in fig. b. This type of fatigue
failure can occur in a few weeks or a
few years, depending on the amount of
overload experienced.
Some causes of metal fatigue may be
the result of the exceptionally heavy
loads, sprocket interaction problems or
by overtightening the chain. If all the
cracks are one direction, it normally
indicates a sprocket problem. If cracks
are both up and down, it normally
indicates an overloading problem.

The presence of corrosion as well as the chain contains microscopic cracks and
presence of hydrogen within the carried breakage problems will continue even if
load can accelerate the problem. If metal the overload conditions are halted.
fatigue is evident, it is recommended that
10230012 10-02
PIN PULL OFF OR PIN BREAKAGE
Another form of failure is the link

pulling off the pin as shown in fig. a. A
typical cause of this may be a bent
attachment. Normally, when a bar bends
it will twist and bend the side bar of the
chain. If the attachment is only pulled
back and not twisted, then usually one
chain has jumped ahead of the other. An
obstruction in the sprocket may cause
one chain to skip a tooth or perhaps one
sprocket key is sheared causing one side
of the chain to carry the load.
52
Pin pull off may also be caused by a pin

head being worn down leaving little
resistance to the failure.
PIN PULL OFF
Another form of failure is pin breakage.

This is very rare and is caused by brittle process or by the effects of hydrogen
pins. Typically this is caused by improper within the load.
heat treating in the manufacturing
LAMINATION
Failure may also be caused by

lamination. Lamination is shown in
fig. b and is caused by a defect in the
steel manufacturing process.
