How tight do you want the conveyor to be when finished?

Look underneath and make sure the conveyor chain is not dragging or hitting the bottom of spreader. I would say 2 or less inches of slack hanging underneath. Keep clean and lubricated, it will last longer. Chain will stretch when new.

1. Periodically check the conveyor chain tension. The spreader should be out of the vehicle. To check the tension, measure in 20"-24" from the rear edge of the sills. Push up on the chain with your hand. The conveyor chain should lift up 1"-3" off the conveyor chain guide. 2. If the slack is greater than 3", loosen the two bearing mounting bolts on each side of the conveyor idler roller on cab end of hopper. 3. Loosen the jam nut on one of the take-up bolts, then tighten (clockwise) the take-up bolt one full revolution. Repeat evenly on the other side.

You couldn't take a link out?

Yes, we could have taken a link out. I decided to replace the conveyor because the original one was over ten years old and worn out. Lots of slop side to side and did not fit well anymore in the drivers.

Wouldn't it be easier to just start?

It probably would be easier to start and run the unit. Although I’m not sure how safe it would be? We didn’t start the unit because we hadn’t installed on the truck yet. All the controls are installed on the truck.
