Described is a checkout station with an adjustable height conveyor belt, and a motorized height adjustor that is used to level and adjust the height of the conveyor belt. The motorized height adjustor includes an adjustable height leg and a motor drive. The motor drive uses a motor to rotate a foot sleeve of the adjustable height leg. Rotating the foot sleeve adjusts the height of the adjustable height leg. Adjusting the height of the adjustable height leg adjusts the height of the conveyor belt of the checkout station. The motorized height adjustor can be coupled to sensors to automatically adjust the height of the conveyor belt.
