-
Cut pan liner to length of pan, less 1/16" per foot
(up to 2" max), to allow for expansion.
-
Notch liner for idler and drive sprockets.
-
Drill liner and pan on intake end only, per above drawing.
-
-
Bevel front-edge of liner back 3/4", using a hand grinder
or file, so flights don't catch on liner.
-
Bend (hammer) down intake end of pan as required, to allow
flight clearance for additional height of liner.
Important:
Check entire length of elevator for adequate side clearance between
liner and both sidewalls (1/16" on each side up to 13" wide, 1/8"
on each side if over 13" wide). Grind or block-plane if needed,
so liner can expand lengthwise without binding and humping.
