A conveyor for conveying material from a press machine. The conveyor is advanced by apparatus adapted to be connected toi the movable head of the press machine. The apparatus includes an arm having a plurality of outwardly extending fingers which is connected to the head of the press machine for movement therewith. A rachet wheel having a plurality of circumferentially spaced finger engaging members is fixably mounted to the drive rod of the conveyor. The fingers on the arm engage the finger engaging members of the rachet wheel upon movement of the head of the press in a first direction which causes the rachet wheel as well as the drive rod to rotate. The rotation of the drive rod results in an incremental advance of the conveyor which removes material deposited thereon from the press machine.
