ABSTRACT:
Attachments for a power turn which power turn has a frame having arcuate inner and outer sidewall portions and support plates forming extensions of the arcuate outer side wall portion and on which are rotatably mounted a driving roll and an idler roll. An endless belt is journaled around the driving and idler rolls and is moved thereby. A cover is mounted on the arcuate outer sidewall portion to cover the outer portion of the endless belt and an endless chain secured thereto and has a main body portion and two removable end portions. One end portion covers a sprocket of the driving roll and portions of the endless chain and the second removable end portion covers a sprocket of the idler roll and portions of the endless chain so that the removable end portions may be readily removed when it is desired to inspect these portions of the driving and idler rolls. The cover has a top wall portion on which are mounted a plurality of lugs, each of which has a support portion spaced a distance above the top wall portion. A safeguard has an arcuate side wall with a plurality of lugs mounted thereon, each of which has a support portion and is positioned so that a portion thereof mates with an arcuate inner wall portion of said top wall portion and the support portions thereof are supported on the support portions of the top wall portion. Bolts and nuts are used to secure the support portions together. The two removable end portions each have a support lug mounted thereon adapted to be secured to a flange on the safeguard.
