Removal Procedure
The ProSort is designed for easy removal of the divert
switch assembly for maintenance or replacement. In
order to remove the electric switch assembly follow the
following steps.
1. Unplug the elbow from the fitting on the solenoid air
valve by pushing in the red flange of the fitting and then
pulling on the elbow.
2. disconnect prox switch cord set from y-cable connector
(figure 6A).
3. Remove the cover located on the side of the sorter
under the divert switch assembly by lifting and rotating
down and out of the way (figure 10d).
4. By reaching through the uncovered hole in the side
channel remove the two nuts at the back side of the
switch assembly channel. Then remove the two bolts on
the outside of the sorter channel which hold up the front
side of the switch assembly channel (figure 10E).
5. The front side of the switch assembly channel may then
be lowered and the entire assembly may be removed
through the opening in the sorter channel.
6. Check the new switch assembly according to the
"divert Switch Checklist" on page 8.
7. Install the new divert switch assembly by reversing the
ELBOW FITTING
procedure by which the old assembly was removed.

• Install Guard Rails at
Divert Locations
If guard rails are to be installed on the spurs and/or the
spur side of the sorter, care should be taken to insure
that the guard rails do not interfere in any way with the
boxes being diverted. Particularly, guards should not be
installed in a way that produces a sharp edge or point
REFLECTOR
in the divert area.

• Locating the Spurs
The take-away spurs must be mounted properly on the
divert sections of the ProSort to insure proper diverting
of product. The following installation guidelines apply to
both powered and gravity spurs.
1. Attach spurs to the sorter by bolting the spur
attachment bracket to the spur mounting nuts in the
unistrut channel on the sorter side channel (figure
10B). Support the spurs as required. Hand-tighten bolts
only at this time.
2. manually place 3 or more shoes along the divert
angle as shown. Place a straight-edge against the
shoes to determine the location of the "divert line".
Verify that the distance between the "divert line" and
the "BR" of the spur is 2 to 3 inches as shown (figure
10C).
3. Position spur vertically so that the spur rollers/
skatewheels are level with the slats on the sorter.
Tighten mounting bolts.
4. Jackbolt Assembly supplied with spur.
