PLANT SAFETY
GENERAL
The safety procedures mentioned in this manual do not eliminate all safety hazards found in the area of crushing
plants. Trio LLC welcomes inquiries regarding other suggested safety procedures for use around their crushers and
related equipment.
DRIVE GUARDS
Proper safety precautions start with the initial installation of the crusher. Crushers are driven by V-belts or by direct
couplings to electric motors or diesel engines. THE BELT DRIVE OR COUPLING SHOULD HAVE A GUARD
AROUND IT.
Since the speed of the crusher is quite important for proper operation, most V-belt drive guards usually have a small
opening immediately opposite the center of the crusher drive shaft so that a tachometer can be inserted to
occasionally check the speed of the countershaft. This opening should be covered with an access door.
OPERATOR’S PLATFORM
Since periodic inspection and maintenance must be performed on each crusher, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT SOME
TYPE OF PLATFORM BE ERECTED AT A LEVEL CONVENIENT FOR MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL WHO
MUST INSPECT AND WORK ON THE CRUSHER. Do not fasten the operator’s platform to the crusher
ELECTRICAL LOCKOUT
THE ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCE FOR THE CRUSHING EQUIPMENT
SHOULD BE LOCKED OUT WHENEVER WORKING ON IT.
Each maintenance worker who normally works on a crusher should be provided with a personal padlock with only one
(1) key. When working on any assembly of the crusher, use this padlock to lock out the electrical controls for the
crusher. It is most important that only one key be provided for the lock, and that key must be in the pocket of the
person who is working on the crusher.
CRANES
Crushers, like any other type of mechanical equipment, require normal periodic maintenance. Internal parts of a
crusher should be assembled and disassembled with crane facilities that have the capability of gently and slowly lifting
and lowering the various parts that make up a crusher. CHAIN HOISTS should be considered only as a LAST resort to
assemble and disassemble a crusher. Personnel working with cranes must know proper hand signals.
MOBILE CRANES
WHEN USING A MOBILE CRANE, ALWAYS OPERATE WITHIN THE RATED CAPACITY OF THE MACHINE TO
AVOID BUCKLING THE BOOM OR TIPPING. Safe ratings are based on operating the crane on firm, level ground.
Outriggers should be properly extended and/or lowered whenever possible.

T RI O
E N G I N E E R E D P R O D U C T S
SAFETY
CONVEYOR BELTS
Conveyor belts leading to and from the crusher should be provided DO NOT USE
with walkways ALONG SIDE the conveyor. ALWAYS PROVIDE CONVEYOR BELTS
HAND RAILS along the conveyor belt walkway. AS WALKWAYS.
PORTABLE PLANTS
If the crushing plant consists of portable equipment (that is, crushing and screening equipment mounted
on trailers), trailer footing or cribbing is extremely important for safe operation. PERIODICALLY
RECHECK TRAILER FOOTING FOR STABILITY. NEVER TRAVEL WITH NEAR CAPACITY
LOADS. CHECK LOCAL LAWS; ESPECIALLY WEIGHT LIMITATIONS.
CLEARING A CRUSHER
There are many events such as power failures, sudden surge of materials, etc., which can cause a
crusher to become plugged with material and stall. UNPLUGGING THE CRUSHER CAN BECOME
A VERY SERIOUS POTENTIAL SOURCE OF ACCIDENTS. PROCEED WITH CAUTION! In many
instances, the only way in which the crusher can be restarted is to dig the material out of the crushing cavity
by hand.
1. DO NOT perform maintenance on moving machinery. This includes adding lubricating oil or
greasing parts of a crusher while it is in operation.
2. DO lockout and tag the equipment before performing maintenance work.
3. DO NOT look into the crushing cavity while the crusher is in operation without protection from
POSSIBLE flying material!
4. DO avoid spillage around the crusher. Crushers seem to attract odd size pieces of rock, gravel,
etc. Plant operators should make it a habit to keep the area immediately adjacent to the
crusher free from this type of spillage which could cause unsuspecting personnel to trip and fall.

GENERAL CRUSHER INFORMATION
INITIAL INSPECTION
It is recommended that as soon as possible, after receipt of the crusher, a careful check be
made for any possible damage which might have occurred during transit. A careful check
should also be made to be sure that nothing has been lost and that all items on the Bill of
Lading, Freight Bill or Manifest can be accounted for.
PARTS MANUAL
A Parts Manual containing the various assembly drawings for your crusher will be sent under separate
cover at a later date; usually immediately after the machine has been shipped. This manual illustrates
and identifies the major parts used in the assembly of the machine and is to be used when ordering spare
or replacement parts.
REPAIR PARTS
For proper operation, only genuine factory parts should be installed. For your convenience, a parts
ordering form is included in the appendix of this manual. To avoid delay and the possibility of incorrect
parts being furnished, the following information should be provided when ordering:
1. Model Number
2. The Serial Number of the crusher, which is stamped on the crusher Nameplate, as well as on
the cover of the Parts Manual.
3. Exact quantity of each part ordered.
4. Complete name and part number as shown in the Parts Manual.

INSTALLATION INFORMATIONS
FEED ARRANGEMENT
(See Figure 2 - 1)
Maximum crusher efficiency depends on the feed arrangement. THE CRUSHER CAN REACH MAXIMUM
EFFICIENCY ONLY IF THE FEED IS SUPPLIED IN THE CORRECT AMOUNT AND IS EVENLY DISTRIBUTED
INTO THE CRUSHING CHAMBER. Carefully check the foundation drawing for crusher clearance dimensions
regarding the installation of the feed equipment. The feed arrangement should permit easy removal to allow for
servicing the crusher.
A properly constructed feed box mounted on the structure over the crusher should provide a backstop for the feed
as it comes from the feed conveyor so that the feed will rebound and fall vertically onto the feed plate in a more
uniform manner. The feed box, when correctly fed in conjunction with the feed plate on the crusher, will help to
assure a uniform distribution of thoroughly mixed feed around the entire crushing cavity. SEGREGATION OF
FINE AND COARSE MATERIAL SHOULD BE KEPT TO A MINIMUM TO ACHIEVE MAXIMUM LINER WEAR.
A feed box is not furnished with the crusher, since the type of feed will determine how the feed box is to be
constructed and of what material.
A METAL DETECTOR SHOULD ALSO BE
INSTALLED TO REMOVE METALLIC OBJECTS
SUCH AS TRAMP IRON WHICH WOULD CAUSE
ADJUSTMENT RING "BOUNCING".

E N G I N E E R E D P R O D U C T S
INSTALLATION INFORMATIONS
DISCHARGE ARRANGEMENT
(See Foundation Drawing)
Since the discharge arrangement varies with each installation, a discharge compartment or chute is not furnished
with the crusher. A metal discharge compartment is recommended. An inspection door should be provided so that
the inside of the compartment is readily accessible for cleaning or inspection. A shelf or ledge should be constructed
within the discharge compartment. The shelf will provide a "dead bed" of crushed material on which the falling
material will hit. The shelf will absorb much of the impact before the material falls onto the conveying equipment.
IF A CHUTE IS TO BE USED, THE SLOPE OF THE CHUTE MUST BE
MORE THAN 45° FROM THE HORIZONTAL AND, IF MATERIAL IS
VERY STICKY, THE ANGLE SHOULD BE INCREASED.
There should be sufficient clearance between the main frame cap and the bottom of the discharge compartment and
between the discharge opening or chute and the conveyor belt. Inadequate clearance at these points can lead to
material clogging the discharge area, causing it to build up under the head, which can damage the crusher.
A ZERO SPEED SWITCH should be installed on the "tail pulley" or "counterweight pulley" on the crusher discharge
belt or conveyor to shut off the feed to the crusher to prevent the discharging material from backing up into the
crusher.
TYPE OF DRIVE
The crusher is normally driven by V-belts. The V-belt drive consists of
narrow 8V belts (See Figure 2-2). The narrow 8V belts are designed for
compactness of drive, drive economy and reduced overhung load. Either
an electric motor or a diesel engine may furnish power.

Therefore, on a NEW installation with an "8V"
section belt and span length of 112", the belt should
deflect 1 3/4" with a spring force of 34 to 50 pounds
for a properly tensioned drive.
6. After 24 to 48 hours, it is best to check the drive to see if the force on the belts is between the
minimum and maximum force shown in Table 2 - 3. Re-tension if necessary. Either excessively
low or high tension will affect the life and operation of a V-belt.

Figure 2 - 6)
EXAMPLE:
- V-Belt Section = Narrow 8V Belt
- Initial Tape Reading = 240"
- Elongation Factor (From Table2-4) = 1.009
(Multiplier) which is 100.9%
- New length reading = 240" initial reading x 1.009
elongation factor = 242.16 or approximately 242
3/16".
5. Periodic belt tension checks must be made. If re-tensioning becomes necessary, the tensioning process just
described should be repeated.
Usually belt SLIPPAGE is the first sign that indicates re-tensioning is necessary. This slippage will show up in loss
of power and speed at the crusher sheave and in a high rate of belt and sheave groove wear. These conditions
are usually accompanied by belt "SQUEAL" and also heating up of belts and sheaves. These conditions are
readily apparent and can be detected by simply looking, listening and feeling.

V-BELT PRECAUTIONS
• MAKE SURE POWER IS LOCKED OUT and tagged before working on Belts. Warn all
personnel.
• CHECK BELT TENSION FREQUENTLY during the first few days of run-in operation. Re-
tension when the belts have had time to seat in the sheave groove. New belts show a
certain amount of initial stretch and will require additional tensioning.
• DON’T OVER-TIGHTEN BELTS. Too much tension shortens both belt and bearing life.
Maintain uniform tension. Idle belts should appear snug or tight. In motion, they have slight
sag on the slack side. (See Figure 2 - 5)
• KEEP DRIVES WELL VENTILATED. Temperatures over 140° Fahrenheit reduce belt
life. The sides of the belt guard must be designed to allow for adequate circulation of air.
Either perforated plate or expanded metal is recommended.
• DON’T ALLOW ANY OIL OR GREASE TO COME IN CONTACT WITH THE BELTS. Oil
causes the rubber to swell and the belts to fail prematurely.
• DON’T MIX AND MATCH NEW AND OLD BELTS since this will not allow the belts to
equally share the load. Always use new belts of the same manufacturer.

CRUSHER MOTOR
The electrical driving motor is to be a squirrel cage induction motor; continuous rated, with normal
starting torque (approximately 125 percent) and normal breakdown torque (approximately 200 percent)
with + 10 percent acceptable voltage variance.
The horsepower required to properly operate your Crusher is shown on the FOUNDATION DRAWING
furnished with your crusher.
T.E.F.C. (totally enclosed fan cooled) motors with class F abrasion resistant insulation and stator
thermostats are recommended.
To maintain continuous service of the recommended operating horsepower level, an electric motor
with a 1.15 service factor is required. If a service factor of 1.0 is used, the horsepower rating
appearing on the motor’s nameplate should be approximately 15 percent higher than the recommended
operating horsepower. However, the crusher power draw is to be held to the horsepower recommended.
With the V-belt drive, slide rails under the motor are required to provide allowance for V-belt take-up
due to belt stretch and for belt installation.
All horsepower ratings are based on electric horsepower. Therefore, when using a diesel engine as
the driving unit, the engine manufacturer must be contacted in order to find out what diesel
horsepower is equivalent to the electric horsepower required.

WARNING TAGS
Before working inside a crusher, be sure to tag and lockout all electrical controls, so no one else can start it. Attach
warning tags to prevent accidents:
1. If the crusher is unsafe for operation. 3. If the machine is being repaired.
2. If controls are being serviced or
replaced.
CRUSHER SETTING
The crusher setting depends on the size of
product required. In most instances the
bowl should be set so that the opening
between the mantle and bowl liner, on the
CLOSED SIDE, measures a distance slightly
less than the maximum size of product
desired. In addition to re-setting the bowl
when changing the size of the product, it is
also necessary to adjust the bowl due to
wear on the crushing members.
THE INITIAL SETTING AS DETERMINED
BY THE SIZE OF THE PRODUCT
DESIRED IS NOT A GUARANTEE THAT
THIS IS THE BEST SETTING FOR
MAXIMUM PRODUCTION. THIS
DEPENDS AT TIMES ON THE
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MATERIAL
TO BE CRUSHED, ON THE POWER
DRAW OF THE CRUSHER MOTOR OR ENGINE OR ON ADJUSTMENT RING ACTION.
The setting of the crusher is changed by either lowering or raising the bowl in the adjustment ring, by turning the
bowl assembly CLOCKWISE TO LOWER and COUNTER-CLOCKWISE TO RAISE. Lowering the bowl reduces
the setting, raising the bowl increases the setting.

MINIMUM SETTING
(See Table 10-2 Discharge Setting)
Under no circumstances should the crusher be set closer than the recommended minimum setting for that particular
type of cavity. Operating with less than the minimum setting causes excessive adjustment ring movement or
bouncing, and produces an unsatisfactory product. This also places a strain on the crusher, resulting in added
maintenance costs. These settings are in keeping with maximum production and satisfactory crusher performance.

THREAD LUBRICATION
Grease fittings are evenly distributed around the side of the
adjustment ring, providing the lubrication to the threads while the
bowl is in the adjustment ring.
Grease should be forced into these fittings with a grease gun when
the bowl is both in the CRUSHING POSITION and the RELEASED
POSITION. Establish a maintenance schedule for forcing grease
into these fittings. Use lithium base grease such as NLGI No. 2 or
equivalent, mixed with 5 - 10% (by volume) of molybdenum disulfide

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To clear the crusher of plugged material, or to remove tramp iron wedged between the bowl liner and mantle,
ALWAYS USE THE HYDRAULIC CLEARING SYSTEM! Proceed as follows:
1. Stop the feed to the crusher.
2. Shut the power OFF to the
crusher motor or engine as
quickly as possible. LOCKOUT
AND TAG THE MACHINERY.
3. Warn or inform personnel of
what is occurring.
4. Check the oil level in the sight

Hydraulic Power Unit.
5. Be sure there is proper
clearance above and around
the crusher.
6. Check that the Hydraulic
Power Unit is ON.
7. Turn the CRUSHER CAVITY
selector switch on the operator
control cabinet to CLEAR. The
six (6) CLAMPING/CLEARING
cylinder rods will EXTEND TO RAISE the adjustment ring to its MAXIMUM HEIGHT of 5" (125 mm) OFF its
seating surface on the main frame. In most cases, this will allow the plugged material to fall through and clear
the crushing cavity. If the cavity DOES NOT CLEAR after the ring has been fully raised, insert the three (3)
SAFETY BLOCKS provided with the cavity clearing system, between the bottom of three (3) equally spaced
clamping/clearing cylinders and on top of the cylinder mounting ribs on the main frame flange (See Figure
10 - 7).
ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS OPERATIONS AROUND A CRUSHER IS THE REMOVAL
OF TRAMP IRON THAT HAS JAMMED IN THE CRUSHING CHAMBER. EXTREMELY SEVERE
INJURIES CAN OCCUR BY TRYING TO REMOVE TRAMP IRON.
ALWAYS USE THE "SAFETY BLOCKS" WHEN THE ADJUSTMENT RING IS IN THE
RAISED POSITION AND MATERIAL IS BEING REMOVED FROM THE CRUSHING
CHAMBER! THESE SAFETY BLOCKS ARE USED TO PROTECT HANDS, ARMS,
EQUIPMENT, ETC. FROM BEING CAUGHT BETWEEN THE CRUSHING MEMBERS, IN
THE EVENT OF A HYDRAULIC FAILURE.

Installation:
To install a replacement outer eccentric bushing, using dry ice proceed as follows:
TO PREVENT ICE BURNS USE WELL INSULATED GLOVES WHEN HANDLING DRY ICE
1. Paint or scribe a line down the side of the bushing starting from one of the cast lugs.
2. Pack the bore of the replacement bushing with dry ice to shrink the bushing. About 250 pounds
(115 Kg) is required to adequately pack the inside of the bushing providing some sort of filler is used
in the center of the bushing. As an example, a 6" x 6" wooden timber leaves sufficient area around
it in a outer eccentric bushing to allow for an adequate amount of dry ice to shrink the
bushing. Cooling time should be approximately two hours on all size bushings.
3. Wrap the outside of the bushing with several layers of burlap to prevent the external build up of
frost which would hinder the installation of the bushing in the main frame. Wrapping also helps to achieve
a more thorough cooling.
4. DO NOT USE THIS METHOD OF INSTALLATION TO OVERCOME A MAIN FRAME BORE THAT HAS
CLOSED-IN.
5. Measure the outside diameter of the bushing and the bore of the main frame to determine when the
bushing has cooled sufficiently.
6. Lift the bushing into position and center it in the top of the main frame bore. Use the line on the side of
the bushing for aligning the bushing with the cored pockets in the frame.
7. Quickly lower the bushing into the main frame.
8. The top of the bushing must be flush with the top of the frame when properly installed.
9. Pour the bushing lock.
If dry ice is not available an alternate method using ramming can be employed. To install the bushing by
ramming, proceed as follows:
1. Paint or scribe a line down the side of the bushing starting from one of the cast lugs.

ECCENTRIC ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
If the eccentric assembly was removed from the crusher because of weight limitations, the various
parts of this assembly are to be installed as follows:
1. Attach the upper step bearing to the eccentric with the upper bearing plate tool furnished with the
tools making sure the pin is engaged into the cored hole of the eccentric. With the shims and lower
bearing plate installed in the main frame cap, attach the eyebolts to the eccentric and lower the
eccentric assembly into the bore of the outer eccentric bushing. Continue lowering the eccentric
assembly until it sets on the lower bearing plate making sure that the gear teeth engage with the
pinion teeth
2. Root clearance and backlash should be set in accordance with Table 5 - 1. After the eccentric assembly
has been installed in the crusher, remove the upper bearing plate tool and replace it in the tool box.

3. To check the backlsh , rotate the countershaft until the pinion tooth just touches the gear tooth.
Measure the clearance on the opposite side of the tooth with a feeler gage. Then measure the root
clearance between the two meshing teeth.
4. Do this several times to find the average readings for the backlash and the root clearance. If the average
readings are less than or more than specified then the eccentric assembly should be removed. Add or
remove appropriate amount of shims to get the correct amount of backlash and root clearance.
5. Whenever installing the shims, always place the thinnest shim at the bottom and the thickest at the top.
Always use the thickest shims possible. All shims must be flat without burrs, kinks and bends.
6. The shims are to be inserted under the lower step bearing and directly into the main frame cap as
shown. Adding shims will raise the eccentric assembly and move the gear away from the pinion,
which increases the root clearance.
SHIMS INITIALLY PLACED BENEATH THE LOWER STEP BEARING AT THE FACTORY
ARE OF THE REQUIRED THICKNESS TO PROVIDE PROPER BACKLASH AND ROOT
CLEARANCE. THEREAFTER, EXTRA SHIMS THAT MAY BE REQUIRED, ARE AVAILABLE FOR

MAINTENANCE
Removing Eccentric Assembly
Attach the upper step-bearing tool to the top of the upper step bearing, screw in the (2) eyebolts and lift the
eccentric assembly out of the crusher. Carefully lift the eccentric straight up out of the main frame and set it on a
suitable work place.
Replacing Gear
The gear, which is mounted on the top of the eccentric, should be inspected whenever the eccentric is removed
for servicing other parts, or if broken or excessively worn teeth are suspected. Pitting or galling on the face of the
teeth is a good indication of excessive wear. This can originate from an incorrect quantity of shims being placed
under the eccentric thrust bearing plate, or by overloading the crusher or by using excessively dirty oil. If it has
been determined that the gear is worn to the point where replacement is necessary, removal is best
accomplished as follows:
Gear Removal
(See Eccentric Assembly Figure)
This assembly consists of a separate ring gear bolted to the counterweight. For removing the
gear, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the eccentric assembly from the crusher.
2. Place wooden blocking under the gear in such a position so that the gear will not fall a great distance, but
should be high enough to permit the gear to drop clear of the shoulder on the eccentric.
3. Chip oft the weld holding the key to the gear and drive the key out from the bottom of the gear.
4. Ram downward on the outer surface of the gear with a timber until the gear drops free of the eccentric, If
required heat the gear to approximately 200 0F above ambient.
Gear Installation
When installing a new gear, proceed as follows:
1. Place the gear on blocking that is high enough to permit the eccentric to be suspended in the
gear when the eccentric is lowered into position. Uniformly heat the gear to 200° Fahrenheit
(93° C) above ambient temperature.
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE GEAR IS HEATED EVENLY THROUGHOUT AND THE HEAT
IS NOT CONCENTRATED IN ONE AREA CREATING A "HOT" SPOT WHICH COULD
DESTROY THE HEAT TREATMENT OF THE GEAR. A CHEMICAL MARKING DEVICE,
WHICH MELTS AT A PREDETERMINED TEMPERATURE SHOULD BE USED TO INSURE
UNIFORM AND SAFE HEATING.
2. Measure the outside diameter of the eccentric and the bore of the gear as it is being heated to
be sure the bore is slightly larger than the eccentric.
3. Align the keyways, and lower the eccentric into place until the eccentric is firmly seated in
the gear. If the gear has been heated properly, no trouble should be encountered in lowering
the eccentric into position.
4. Then drive the key into position, approximately 3/8" (10mm) below the top of the gear. After
the entire assembly has cooled, tack weld the gear to the key, care being taken that the weld
does not project above the top of the eccentric.

A BUSHING WITH NORMAL USE WEARS ON THE HEAVY SIDE OF THE ECCENTRIC
ASSEMBLY. THIS IS NOT A CAUSE FOR CONCERN BECAUSE IT IS A NORMAL AND
EXPECTED CONDITION. A BUSHING THAT IS WORN EXCESSIVELY THIN, CRACKED OR
BURNT SHOULD BE REPLACED.
If the bushing is found to be loose in the eccentric, ram it down until a feeler gauge of no more than 0.004”
(0.1mm) can be inserted at the bottom, between the bushing and the bore of the eccentric.
DO NOT USE DRY ICE TO INSTALL AN INNER ECCENTRIC BUSHING. BOTH BUSHING AND
ECCENTRIC MUST BE AT THE SAME TEMPERATURE WHEN INSTALLING THE BUSHING.
1. Slide the bushing into the eccentric, aligning the bushing key with the eccentric keyway.
2. Ram the bushing tight.
3. Check to see if the bushing is tight in the eccentric by inserting a feeler gauge of no more than 0.004”
(0.1mm) at the bottom, between the bushing and the bore of the eccentric. If it does not enter, the
bushing is tight.

4. Lift the main shaft assembly by installing the two special straps provided for this function. Please see fig-
6-1. Make sure the bolts are properly tightened to secure the lifting straps to the neck of the Mainshaft
Cap so the straps are tight around the neck. Put lifting rope/chain loops through on either side of the cap
onto the straps as shown. Lift carefully and slowly until the rope/wire is taught and is still securely
fastened to the straps.
5. Lower the main shaft assembly into the crusher, taking certain precautions to prevent damaging the Inner
Ecc. bushing.
6. After the head assembly has been installed in the crusher, remove the straps from the mainshaft cap.
MAINTENANCE
Removing Head Assembly
To remove the head and shaft assembly for inspection or replacement of parts, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the bowl as described in "REMOVING BOWL AND ADJUSTMENT CAP ASSEMBLY" in
Section B-IV.
2. Follow the procedure listed above in ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS – Item 3.
3. Carefully lift the head assembly out of the crusher
by positioning an overhead crane or other suitable
lifting device so that the cable will be lifting at a
slight angle as shown in Head & Shaft Assembly.
Lifting in this manner will prevent damaging the
sealing arrangement on the head and socket.
The heavy or thick side of the eccentric can be
determined by noting the position of the discharge
opening before the bowl is removed. THE LOW
SIDE OF THE HEAD INDICATES THE HEAVY
SIDE OF THE ECCENTRIC.
4. With the head assembly out of the crusher, examine
the highly machined surfaces of the head, shaft,
inner eccentric bushing and sealing arrangement.
Smooth out any scratches or score marks as well

Mantle Removal
To remove the worn mantle and install a replacement mantle, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the mainshaft Cap from the assembly. To remove the mainshaft Cap ram against the lugs cast
into the Cap to turn it counter clockwise. Use a steel round, 3" x 4' (76 x 1220mm) suspended from an
overhead crane, as a ram. If the lugs are worn, put a solid steel rod of 1 ¾” diameter and of sufficient
length through the mainshaft cap hole. Use the steel round described above to ram against the rod to
turn the cap counter clockwise. Use extreme precaution while doing this operation.
2. Since the mainshaft cap tightens during
operation and the mantle tends to stretch,
difficulty may be experienced when unscrewing
the cap. If extreme difficulty is encountered in
removing the cap, the torch ring, located just
below the cap may be torch cut to relieve the
pressure on the cap. In most instances it is not
necessary to cut through the torch ring because
a groove cut in the ring around the entire
circumference will cause the ring to collapse.
(See Figure 6 - 2) If cutting the groove does
not cause the ring to collapse, the ring may
have to be cut all the way through. BE Torch Ring
EXTREMELY CAREFUL NOT TO DAMAGE
THE HEAD. The cap should now be free to
turn.
3. Lift the worn mantle off of the head using one of
the lifting methods shown in Figure 6 - 3. One
method uses the FOUR (4) equally spaced Notice the direction of
lifting hooks cast into the lower edge of the the cutting torch
mantle. The other method uses TWO (2)
equally spaced lifting lugs welded to the upper
surface of the mantle. Fig. 6-2
4. Chip or grind off any backing material, which
might remain on the head. Usually the backing material will adhere to the mantle but little, if any,
chipping is required on the head. (See following warning regarding the prevention of personnel inhaling
dust from chipping or grinding backing material.)

Introduction
The clamping, cavity clearing, bowl locking and bowl adjustment functions of the crusher are done
hydraulically. The upper portion of the crusher is clamped to the lower portion of the crusher using clamping
cylinders. These same cylinders are used to clear the crusher by supplying pressure on the piston side of the
cylinders. The bowl is locked to the adjustment ring using locking cylinders (these cylinders are inside the
adjustment cap and cannot be seen from outside the crusher).
The bowl is screwed into the locking collar and adjustment ring. The locking cylinders when pressurized create a
locking force between the adjustment ring, locking collar and bowl threads. This prevents the bowl from turning
while crushing.

Installation
1. Mount the power unit in a location not to exceed 30 feet from the crusher. The unit should be placed
so the operator can see the clearing cylinders and the adjustment cap.
2. Install the electrical wiring to the junction box located on the side of the unit. A starter is included
with the unit but the electrical disconnect must be supplied by the customer and installed to
conform to local electrical codes. The unit comes internally wired for 460V 3ph 60Hz. See the
electrical schematic for proper customer connections. DO NOT supply the power to the unit until all
the components are connected and oil is put in the reservoir.
3. Connect the hydraulic hoses to the planetary gear drive and locking cylinders. When looking at
the connections on the right side of the unit and moving left to right, the connections are Locking
Cylinder, Clamp B Cylinder (clearing), Clamp A Cylinder (clamping), Motor B (clockwise); Clamp
A (Counterclockwise) and Brake.
4. After wiring of the power unit has been completed and before starting the power unit, the pump
rotation must be checked. The correct rotation of the electric motor is counter clockwise when
viewing the back of the motor (looking at the motor fan). Bump the motor to verify rotation.
5. Bleed the hoses!!

LUBRICATION SYSTEM
General Information
The lubricating system consists of an oil reservoir, pump and motor, pump relief valve, filter, filter relief valve, oil
cooler, crusher pressure switch, immersion heater and high temperature switch. Thermometers are used at
various locations of the circuit to monitor the oil temperature throughout the circuit. Pressure gages are used at
various locations to monitor the oil pressure as it flows through the entire circuit.
Installation
The package lube system must be mounted below the crusher drain line. The drain line must have a minimum
pitch of 25mm (1in) for every 300mm (1ft) of run. You must allow for this when positioning the unit otherwise oil
can backup into the crusher and cause oil leaks. If an air/oil cooler is used, allow ample space for air to circulate
around the cooler and make note that the direction of air flow is over the motor then through the cooler. Radiator
fins must be cleaned periodically to ensure proper cooler efficiency. If a water/oil cooler is used, make sure a
strainer is installed in the water supply line to prevent contaminants from entering the tubes of the cooler. The
water strainer must be cleaned periodically.
Lubricant
The lubricant used must be gear oil with EP properties. The viscosity index must be 90 or higher, resist foaming
and have anti-wear additives. The proper oil is an ISO grade 68 with a viscosity of 68 CST (Centistokes) at 40°C
and 8.5 CST (Centistokes) or higher at 100°C, for Example SHELL OMALA (EP 68) or CHEVORON (EP 68)
Gear Lubricants. The oil reservoir holds approx. 575liter (150 gal.) of oil. Additional oil is required to fill the lines,
filter, and cooler the first time.
Start-Up
Check the rotation of all motors before starting the lube system. The minimum oil temperature in the oil tank
before start up is 16°C (60°F). A thermostat controls the immersion heater to stop heating the oil at 16°C (60°F).
Running the crusher with lube oil too cold could result in excessive relief by-pass and reduced oil flow to the
crusher. The normal operating temperature of the crusher is between 38°C (100°F) and 43°C (110°F). If the
return oil exceeds 60°C (140°F), the feed to the crusher should be stopped, run the crusher for one minute and
then shut down.
When all of the above have been checked, start the lube system and circulate the oil through the crusher at least
one minute before starting crusher. This will ensure that all bearing surfaces are lubricated before they begin
spinning.

WARRANTY
Seller warrants all new equipment manufactured or imported by Trio Engineered Products,
Inc. (Trio) against defects in material or workmanship attributed to the original machine
manufacturing. No other warranties are expressed or implied.
Warranty claims must be made through the dealer or agent responsible for the original
equipment sale, as the equipment will have been registered with them at the time of sale
from Trio. Claims must be made within twelve (12) months or 2,000 working hours,
whichever occurs first, from the date of readiness for operation, but not more than fifteen
(15) months from the date of shipment from Trio. All parts claimed to be defective shall be
returned to Trio, freight prepaid, for inspection to determine that the said part or parts are
defective.
If it is determined that the fault lies with Trio, Trio will ship a replacement part or parts at no
cost, but freight charges will be paid by customer. If it is determined that the fault does not
lie with Trio, a replacement part or parts will be shipped, freight collect, to the customer with
the receipt of a purchase order from the dealer or agent. Trio will not be responsible for
freight costs associated with warranty claims.
When petitioning for a warranty item, the serial number of the equipment must be
referenced. The serial number must be clearly identifiable on the Trio nameplate on the
equipment. This warranty is void if:
• The serial number plate and/or other markings identifying the machine as Trio have
been altered or removed.
• The machine was not sold under the Trio brand name or another brand name
approved by Trio.
• Parts have been used other than those supplied by Trio.
Trio makes no warranty with respect to damages or defects in any product caused by improper
installation, operation, maintenance, and storage or caused by negligence or accident. In addition,
any product repaired or altered in any way as reasonably determined by Trio, that affects the
performance or purpose for which the equipment was originally manufactured, will not be covered
under this warranty.
Under this warranty, the buyer will not be entitled to any labor charges involving the repair
of the equipment involving warranty items, unless authorized by Trio in writing.
Warranties of merchantability or of fitness for any particular purpose or arising from the
course of dealing or usage of trade are specifically excluded. Any affirmation of fact,
description of goods, or sample or model referred to in this agreement or elsewhere,
whether or not the same relate to production or capability of the goods to perform, are not
the basis of this agreement, unless specifically made a party of the agreement in writing.
Under no circumstances will Trio be responsible for consequential or punitive damages of
any nature, whether based on contract or tort, including but not limited to lost profits, loss of
production, delays or other expenses. Under no circumstances shall the liability of Trio
exceed the purchase price of the equipment furnished.
The laws of the state of California shall govern the warranty. The parties agree that exclusive
jurisdiction for any claim for breach of this warranty shall rest in the Los Angeles County Superior
Court in the State of California.
