If not, disconnect power, inspect wiring and safety switch, and replace if necessary. • Turn power back off, remove cover, and pull blue reset button out to normal position, turn the Controller to manual stop, and acknowledge alarm on Controller is off. 4. Check Chain Tension of the System o Position the Safety Switch approximately 2 inches from the left side of bracket. This will prevent the initial startup movement from causing an erroneous activation of switch due to any slack in chain or stretching of chain. o Block the Door Switch (tape) and restart the drive unit and run it for 10-15 seconds. Caution: Make sure no one is in front of the drive unit and keeps their distance! o Check the position of the Chain Safety Switch during operation; it should be in the center of the safety bracket. o If not, turn off the drive unit and disconnect all electrical power to shorten the conveyer chain.
