== Basic ==
'''Task''': make a steady flow of items from your [[Mining drill]]s to the [[Furnace]]s.
 
* Select a belt by taking a [[Storages/Stack]] from your [[Inventory]]
* rotate the belt by pressing "R" until the wanted direction is reached
* place the belt (by default right mouse)
* keep pressing right mouse and move into the belts direction: the build continues
 
== Advanced ==
 
'''For a more founded introduction into the belt mechanics see [[Belt transport system]].'''
For understanding fine aspects of handling belts see [[Transport belts/Physics]].
 
=== Combining belts ===
 
==== Turns ====
[[File:transport-belt-two-lines-2.jpg|thumb|256px]]
Turns will always '''[[Transport belts/Turns|turns]]''' keep the alignment of items. The inner side of the turn moves items at half the speed, meaning turns are likely to be bottlenecks. Using faster belts at the [[Transport belts/Turns|turns]] is recommended.
 
See also
* [[Transport belts/Turns]] for details about turns.
* [[Transport belts/Optimizing]] about other ways to speed up this bottleneck.
 
==== Belt Lanes: using two sides ====
[[File:transport-belt-two-lines-1.jpg|thumb|256px]]
Belts have '''[[Transport belts/Belt lane|two lanes]]''' that can be used for transporting.
 
See also
* [[Transport belts/Belt lane]] for more about usage of the two lanes of a belt.
* [[Transport belts/Optimizing]]
 
==== Side inserts (Crossings) ====
[[File:transport-belt-two-lines-3.jpg|thumb|256px]]
When belts are crossing, items are [[Transport belts/Side insert|inserted from the side]] and they stay on the side of the belt they came from.
 
See also
* [[Transport belts/Side insert]] how to use it efficiently.

* [[Transport belts/Turns]]
* [[Transport belts/Blocking items]]
* [[Transport belts/Side insert]]
* [[Transport belts/Optimizing]]
 
=== Other Usages ===
 
* [[Transport belts/Speedup Walking]]: Walk/run in belt direction add the speed of the belt to your own.
* [[Transport belts/Defense]]: Use the Express belt to slow down the enemies
 
=== Useless knowledge ===
 
* [[Transport belts/Transport other entities]]: even the car can be transported with belts.
* [[Transport belts/Why do belts use no energy?]]: Some reasons...
