OPERATION MANUAL

INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Star conveyer “ECONO CONVEYER”.
This operation manual describes the conveyer’s functions, hot to operate it, and the precautions
necessary when using it. Please read this manual thoroughly in order to understand the features
of this conveyer better and use it more efficiently.
Features
● Compact structure because of aluminum frame and resin belt used.
● Can be interlocked with external signals such as your unloader, making it possible to have
intermittent operations and change the tact time for moldings with ease.
● Can be used as a service platform for finishing work because of flat belt surface used.

1-2. Safety Precautions
DANGER
PROHIBITING WORKER TO RIDE ON CONVEYER
Never attempt to ride on the conveyer. If the worker rides on the conveyer, it may cause
the risk of making the conveyer unstable and so fall down, getting the worker injured.
DO NOT PERFORM MAINTENANCE WHILE CONVEYER
IS RUNNING!
Never attempt to service or perform maintenance on the conveyer while it is running.
Before carrying out maintenance, be sure to shut down the machinery as follows: (1) Shut
down the air supply. (2) Switch off the POWER switch in the control box. (3) Cut the
power breaker.
WARNING
Wear appropriate work clothes.
Do not wear bulky clothing and accessories when working at the conveyer, as these may
be caught in the machinery, getting the worker seriously injured.
Do not attempt to modify the conveyer.
Do not redesign, rebuild, or otherwise modify the conveyer. The manufacturer cannot be
responsible for accidents or damage caused by modified equipment.
Be sure to ground the conveyer.
Use a No.3 ground setup to help reduce the risk of electric shock at installation. Also,
after moving the conveyer to another place or performing periodic inspection, make sure
that the specified ground setup has been done.

-RELATED INFORMATION
Use a non-fuse circuit breaker.
To avoid the risk of fire due to overcurrent, include a non-fuse circuit breaker in the
wiring leading to the power source.
Do not open the cover on the power box.
High voltages are present within the power box. Opening the cover may lead to serious
electric shock.
Do not remove the chain cover for operation.
Operating the conveyer with the chain cover removed may cause the risk of getting the
worker caught or pinched in the machinery.
Do not touch the conveyer belt while it is running.
Never put your hands inside the conveyer belt while it is moving. Doing so may cause the
risk of getting your hands caught or pinched in the conveyer driving rollers.
Shut down operation during periods of frequent power outage.
The machinery should be shut down during times when power supply is frequently going
off due to thunderstorm or other such external event. Operating with an irregular power
supply may lead to equipment damage. If you cannot locate the cause of failure, please
contact the engineering service personnel of our sales office.
CAUTION
Confirm mutual safety in the case of cooperated work.
When two or more persons jointly work together, be sure to clarify who is responsible and
confirm safety by pointing the finger to all safety confirmation places and saying “O.K” if
safe before getting operation started, in order to avoid accidents due to miss-operation or
safety confirmation failure at manual adjustment.

Secure adequate maintenance space.
For safe operation, please leave at least 1 meter of maintenance space (with empty floor)
around the circumference of the conveyer.
Work under bright illumination.
To ensure that work is done safety in setting the conveyer and performing service or
maintenance, be sure to work under bright illumination.
Carry out daily maintenance inspections.
Check machinery daily to make sure it is in safe operating condition. Contact STAR
SEIKI in the event of problem.
Stop working in the event of breakdown or other problems.
If you think that the conveyer is abnormal or malfunctioned, do not keep working based
on your own thought. Simply stop operating it. Be sure to get operation started on the
basis of appropriated instructions from our engineering service personnel.
Never touch the switches with wet or dirty hands.
Doing so may cause the risk of not only getting the conveyer malfunctioned but also
accidents due to electric shock.
Stop all devices linked to the conveyer during operation.
Before carrying out inspection, repair, adjustment, cleaning or lubrication work in the
conveyer’s moving range, be sure to shut down not only the conveyer itself but also all
devices linked to is, such as your molding machine, etc. A failure to do this may cause the
risk of getting the worker seriously injured due to unexpected drive.

■Kinds of Caution Plates
* Note that some of the caution plates given below are not used on the conveyer.
Caution for high voltage electrical shock
Make sure to cut off the breaker of
controller while maintenance work is
being done. Especially during such work
for inside the box, disconnect connecting
cable with molding machine and cut off
primary power supply of the factory.
This label can be found at the locations
(terminal block, etc.) where special
attention is required in the range of high
voltage warning.
Caution for danger of enfolding
To work in moving zone for maintenance
or other purposes, do not touch carelessly
with such parts as motor, rotary axis, gear,
pulley, belt which have danger of
enfolding you. Cut off power supply and
air pressure to work.
