Installation: Rubber profile (optional)

The rubber profile is cut to the trough length (standard 2 m) and pressed into the groove provided by hand. (Picture shows: left-hand side. Right-hand side is mirrored. To be repeated for all trough segments.)

Connecting and fastening trough segments

1 Join both trough side parts by pushing them together (allow at least +2 mm clearance!).
2 + 3 Cover half of each trough segment with the assembly kit.

Cover half of each trough segment with the basic assembly kit

Cover half of each trough segment with the heavy duty assembly kit.

Adjust clearance & align trough segments

Set the required minimum clearance "chain/trough" of 2 mm on both sides.
Test whether the e-chain® runs smoothly and without problems in the guide channel. In the case of central infeed with KMA, please bear the KMA width in mind.
Once you have set the minimum clearance and all trough segments are aligned flush, tighten up all screws on the trough. Take note of the correct installation direction of the sliding nut (see detail). Tightening torques for fastening screws on the assembly kits: M6: 10 Nm / M8: 23 Nm
