Safety
Make sure you thoroughly read this section to become familiar with
all the safety issues relating to the safe operation of this product.
Please read all of the warnings that follow to avoid possible injury.
Although we have made every effort to incorporate safety features in
the design of this product, there are residual risks that an installer or
operator should be aware of to prevent personal injury.
Please read all of the cautions that follow to prevent damage to this
product. This product is built with the highest quality materials.
However, damage can occur if the system is not operated and cared for
within design guidelines as recommended by Streamfeeder.
Danger To insure proper machine operation make sure that all the safety de-
vices are installed properly and functioning. Do not attempt to defeat a
safety interlock or safety feature.
Equipment interior contains incoming 115VAC electrical power.

Bodily contact with these high voltages can cause electrocution,
which can result in serious injury or death.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference

Electrical Noise (RFI), also known as electrical noise, do not usually cause problems.
If intense enough, however, it can cause problems for other electrical
equipment.

Modular Collator 2. Conveyor Side Guides
Base Components
The collator base side guides are adjustable to accommodate the varying
(continued) sizes of products. To adjust, simply loosen all the knobs and slide
the side guide open to allow for wider material or closed to allow for
narrower material. The guides should be adjusted with equal distance
from lug (or pusher). The side guides can be adjusted the length of the
conveyor as well.

2 Service and Maintenance
Daily: Using a mild stainless steel polish, clean the collator base by
wiping with a clean cloth.
Every 90 days: The following maintenace procedures should be
performed by a factory-trained technician. Under normal usage, these
tasks should be completed every three months:
• Lightly oil the chain (10W-40 lubricant)

• Grease the bearing blocks
• Check chain tension - adjust as needed
The chain tension is automatically adjusted via the gas struts and
Chain Tension tensioning idler shaft.
Adjustment
The gas shocks and tensioner idler shaft in the Tensioner Assembly (P/N
14581109) automatically set the chain tension. Therefore, adjustments in
chain tension are not required. See below view for additional detail.
Tensioner Assembly P/N 14581109
Torque Limiter The Torque Limiter assembly (P/N 13901116) on the Motor Drive as-
sembly (P/N 14581107) is set at the factory and does not require any
Adjustment adjustment unless the Torque Limiter is replaced.
To adjust the Torque Limiter assembly, accomplish the following:
Place the Torque Limiter assembly on the gear box shaft and tighten the
torque limiter assembly. To test, run the conveyor at operating speed
for one hour, and then stop the conveyor by blocking with a solid bar
perpendicular to the travel direction. If tensioned correctly, the lug will
stop immediately and begin in motion once released. In the event the
lug does not start immediately, the tension is too great and the tensioning
assembly must be loosened. Repeat the aforementioned as necessary to
achieve the correct results. See below view for additional detail.
Torque Limiter Assembly P/N 13901116

Lug Spacing In order to change the lug spacing, there must be an equal amount of
chain length, in half-inch increments, for the amount of pockets desired.
Adjustment For example, if you have a one-hundred foot chain length and desire 50
pockets, then the lug spacing will be 24 inches (100’ X 12 = 1200 inches
divided by 50 pockets = 24 inch lug spacing). In the event, the amount
of distance between lugs does not divide equally, accomplish one or
more of the following:
Add or remove chain link(s), P/N 51390110.
Change pusher lug (P/N 51458021) location on the pusher lug mount
(P/N 51458007), as shown below.
Lug Assembly P/N 14581116
Change the quantity of pockets desired.
To remove and replace the lug assemblies for desired pusher lug place-
ment, accomplish the following:
Once the proper lug spacing has been determined for the length of chain
on the modular collator base, next remove the Material Guides.
Then remove the Main Table Top (P/N 51458002).
Lug Assembly P/N 14581116 Identify which pusher lug assembly to begin measuring the pocket size or
lug spacing from and mark for later identification. Once the main table
top has been removed and identification of the first lug has been complet-
ed, advance the chains by hand to an area on the top of the collator base
where there is adequate side-to-side movement of each chain to allow
for the lug assembly to be removed from the individual chain links. You
will now measure the distance determined from the previously identified
lug and install the pusher lug assembly by inserting the pin connectors
(P/N 51458029) into the appropriate hollow pin chain link. Ensure the
pin connectors are installed to prevent them from causing a catch point
during the travel of the pusher lug through the modular collator base.
This can be adjusted by loosening the set screws on the lug assembly
Material Guides and relocating the pin connector and refastening the set screws. Repeat
this process as many times as required to establish the predetermined
lug spacing or pocket size. There should be an equal amount of distance
between all lug assemblies when completed.
Note: If the lug spacing is not equal throughout the entire length of
the modular collator base, feeder timing accuracy may be significantly
impacted.
