⇨ Set up the conveyor belt straight and fix in place with adhesive tape. If necessary,

turn on the vacuum to prevent the conveyor belt slipping. Push the assembly

base under the fixed conveyor belt. (A)

⇨ Align the other end of the conveyor belt parallel to the fixed edge with a gap of

approx. 0.5 mm. Fix in place with adhesive tape. (B)

⇨ Fix the aligned conveyor belt to the assembly base using the stapler and 6 mm

staples (C)

⇨ Place two offset layers of adhesive tape on both sides of the connecting gap (D)

⇨ Before gluing, apply a stripe of the glue from the applicator gun to a piece of

paper. This ensures that the glue which is emitted is correctly mixed. Use the

applicator gun to apply the 2-component glue to the connecting gap. Ensure that

the gap is completely filled with glue. (E)

⇨ As soon as the glue has been applied, use a spatula to spread out/remove the

excess glue. The glue needs around 5 minutes to bond. (F)

⇨ Apply the glue more liberally to the left and right edges to prevent tearing (F)

⇨ The glue will be dry after approx. 4 hours. Remove all staples, the adhesive tape

and the assembly base
