Installation Quick Guide

Proper installation is vital for the egg belt clip to function correctly.

1. Locate the Channel: Identify the metal tray or rod conveyor where the egg collection belt sits.

2. Spacing: Measure out intervals of 10 feet.

4. Test: Run the egg belt for 5 minutes to check for wandering or squeaking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How often should I replace egg belt clips?

A: Egg belt clips should be inspected during monthly maintenance. Replace them immediately if they show signs ,distortion, bending, or if they no longer hold the egg conveyor belt tension securely.

Q: Can I run an egg conveyor without clips?

A: It is not recommended. Without clips, the egg collection belt will wander, leading to jams, spilled eggs, and frayed belt edges, which are expensive to replace.

Q: Are these egg belt clips universal?

A: While many are interchangeable, it is best to check the width of your egg belt (e.g., 90mm vs. 100mm) and the mounting style of your poultry cage system before purchasing.
