Return Wheel Torque Specifications

Posted by: Anonymous
Date Posted: |

Portec introduced the new return wheel design on all equipment produced after July 15, 2011. The assembly now utilizes a return wheel with a glass-reinforced nylon sleeve and khaki urethane wheel.

When any maintenance or replacement has been done to the return wheels, verify that both set screws have been torqued to the proper specifications for safe operation.
