* FULL BELT FLASHING

The interior sides of the belt are completely covered by flashing to prevent material from working its way under the belt. A rear flap prevents material from falling out the bottom when loading.

* SELF CLEANING UNDERBELT SYSTEM

The riding surface of the conveyor is spaced with large 5” slots. This allows material trapped under the belt to fall through and be carried down to the bottom. At this point it is able to fall out the side because of the wing pulley and the engineered spacing between the pulleys, belt and sidewall
