PERSONNEL SAFETY

GENERAL
This portion of the instruction manual is intended to illustrate only basic safety procedures.
The information in
this manual is not intended to replace safety codes, insurance requirements, federal, state and local
laws, rules and regulations. These sections are presented as a helpful guide and show some of the
daily problems that may be encountered.

STOP ACCIDENTS BEFORE THEY STOP YOU


In order to alert you, as operators and maintenance personnel, dangerous or hazardous operations are
shown in this instruction manual with BOLD and ITALIC notes. Study this manual, the quick reference
guide and any other manufacturer’s literature covering your specific equipment. READ ALL
WARNING INSTRUCTIONS. Practice safe operation.

KNOW YOUR EMPLOYER'S SAFETY PROGRAM!


Company safety records show that the greatest percentage of accidents is caused by disregard of simple
safety rules. Consult your supervisor for specific instructions when starting a job.

DRESS PROPERLY FOR THE JOB


Protective clothing is essential to protecting one’s self. Be aware that loose clothing can become
entangled in moving parts! Keep warm without restricting movement. Wrist watches, rings, and other
jewelry can be dangerous. Keep your pockets free of objects that may fall out. Proper clothing is required
while running the crusher:

1. HARD HAT
2. SAFETY EYE WEAR (Glasses or goggles)
3. SAFETY SHOES
4. EAR PLUGS
5. RESPIRATOR (When required)
6. GLOVES
7. PROTECTIVE CLOTHING

SAFETY

READ THE MANUAL AND UNDERSTAND YOUR MACHINERY


Have everyone READ THE MANUAL (and all related literature) furnished with your equipment to learn its operating
and maintenance characteristics, capacities, and limitations. Learn the location and function of ALL CONTROLS,
indicators, warning devices and WARNING instructions.

READ and OBSERVE the SAFETY DECALS! Replace the decals when it becomes necessary.

ARE YOU PREPARED FOR EMERGENCIES?


Know the location of, and how to use a fire extinguisher and a first aid kit. Know where to get prompt assistance.
An emergency calls for fast action.

BEFORE STARTING CHECK


Equipment not properly maintained and prepared for operation is unsafe equipment. Perform a careful check at the
beginning of your shift. WALK COMPLETELY AROUND THE MACHINERY AND INSPECT IT. Check for warning
and lockout tags! If something needs attention now, do not run the machinery until it is fixed. Do not let unauthorized
personnel operate the crusher! DO NOT START THE CRUSHER WITH FEED MATERIAL INSIDE THE
CRUSHER!

1. Walk completely around the machine.


2. Be absolutely certain that no one is in, on, under, next to, or near the crusher!
3. Look for lockout tags, warning tags, and notices. Observe all safety decals on the crusher.
4. Warn all nearby personnel that you are starting the crusher!

IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING CHECK


1. Check all instruments and gauges to be sure everything is operating properly.
2. Test all controls for proper functioning.
3. Listen for any unusual noises or vibrations.

WARNING TAGS
Before working inside a crusher, be sure to tag and lockout the electrical controls, so no one else can start it. Attach
warning tags to prevent accidents:
• If the crusher is unsafe for operation
• If controls are being serviced or replaced
• If the machine is being repaired

USE OF EPOXY RESINS


Mantles and bowl liners were installed in the crusher with epoxy backing material! In those areas where epoxy
materials/compounds are used, care should be taken when using a cutting torch or when grinding. THE AREA
SHOULD BE WELL VENTILATED BECAUSE EPOXY FUMES CAN CAUSE NAUSEA OR POSSIBLE EYE OR
SKIN IRRITATION.

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES AND MEDICATION


- DO NOT use alcoholic beverages before coming to work or while on the job.
- BEWARE of medicines, tranquilizers or other drugs that can make you sleepy or less alert.

SAFETY

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.

CUTTING TORCH AND WELDING EQUIPMENT


One of the most frequently used tools around the crusher is the cutting torch. Crushers which are equipped with
hydraulic components should have these components depressurized and adequately covered with flame-proof
material so that sparks, weld spatter, etc., cannot reach these areas. Ruptured high pressure hydraulic lines will
quickly vaporize the hydraulic fluid as it reaches the atmosphere. This vaporized fluid can quickly become a mass of
flames, resulting in severe burns for personnel in the immediate area. ALL MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL WHO
NORMALLY USE CUTTING TORCH EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE ADVISED IF THERE ARE HYDRAULIC
COMPONENTS IN THE IMMEDIATE AREA IN WHICH THEY ARE WORKING. Rubber lined hoses are not
immune to the cutting torch equipment.

6 CONE CRUSHER – TC 51
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.

CRUSHING PLANT “NOISE”


Crushing equipment is noisy and the auxiliary equipment found in and around crushing equipment such
as chutes, transfer stations, screens, etc., can at times be noisier than the crusher itself. EAR
PROTECTIVE DEVICES MAY BE REQUIRED!

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.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE WORK


The following points cover some of the basic do's and don’ts when performing maintenance work.

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

A-II GENERAL CRUSHER INFORMATION


INTRODUCTION
T his Instruction Book has been prepared to assist you, the user, in the installation, operation
and maintenance of your Cone Crusher. This information will serve to acquaint you with the
construction of the crusher and as an aid in gaining the general knowledge necessary for
efficient operation and maintenance. It is strongly recommended that the contents of this
book be read, understood and put in practice prior to both installation and operation of the
crusher.

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.
5. Complete shipping instructions.

TONNAGE AND GRADATION


Numerous variables determine the tonnage and gradation including type of size, feed rate, feed
distribution, crusher settings, rate of reduction, etc.

PROPER LINER SELECTION


Because there are so many different conditions and types of operation to be considered, it would be
difficult to list each type of liner that would be best suited for each individual condition and type of
operation. Therefore, it is recommended that Trio be consulted for proper liner selection.
If for any reason, it is felt that unsatisfactory wear life was obtained from the original liners, it is
suggested that the bowl liner and mantle be cut open so that the contour of the bowl liner and
mantle can be traced onto a sheet of paper and the traced contours sent to the factory, in order
that the exact concentration of wear can be determined. Another bowl liner and mantle can then
be recommended which will have a different contour at these wear points.
In order to properly answer any inquiry, it is important that the following information be included:
1. Size of Feed
2. Type of Feed
3. Product Size Desired

APPLICATION AND OPERATION GUIDE LINES

INSTALLATION & OPERATION DETAILS B


B-I APPLICATION & OPERATION GUIDE LINES
Maximize Product Tonnages and
Minimize Crusher Abuse

1. ABRASION AND WORK INDICES


• The abrasiveness of the rock being crushed is measured as an Abrasion Index
number. The toughness of the rock being crushed is measured as a Work Index number.
• The abrasiveness of the rock is what wears the liners.
• The toughness of the rock (HP-HR/Ton or KWH/Ton) dictates how much rock you can
crush with a given amount of horsepower.

2. STAGES OF CRUSHING
• Primary, Secondary, Tertiary & Quaternary
• Cone crushers cover Secondary through Quaternary crushing stages with
combinations of Standard Head and Short Head configurations with different Bowl
and Mantle combinations.

3. LINER SELECTION (SEE THE “TECHNICAL SHEETS”)


• Select the Bowl Liner that gives the feed opening on the closed side, at the desired
CSS, equal to the maximum feed size.
• As a rule of thumb the Reduction Ratio (F80/P80) for the secondary application
should be between 4 and 6 and for the tertiary application between 2 and 4.
• Break the liners in by operating at 50% power draw for 4 hours, 75% power draw for
4 hours and then 100% power draw, This will extend the life of the liners.

4. FEEDING THE CRUSHER


• Supply evenly graded feed with less than 10% of the product in the feed.
• Keep the free water at less than 3% to minimize liner wear and packing in the cavity.
• The feed should be distributed 360° around the cavity for uniform crushing forces and
crushing action. This will increase the yield, reduce power draw, reduce crusher
abuse and extend the life of the liners. We highly recommend the use of the Rotating
Feed Distributor, offered by Trio, in the tertiary and quaternary stages.
• Remove any tramp material such as wood, metal, clay, dirt, etc. to minimize crusher
abuse.
• Control the feed rate and the level in the cavity with proper devices so the crusher is
choke fed up to the top of the head nut. In some secondary applications it may not be
possible to achieve this .But all attempts should be made to choke feed the crusher to
draw maximum power to get maximum yield.

5.CLOSED SIDE SETTING


Open Circuit
• Select the setting using the performance charts as a guide. You may have to vary the
CSS to optimize the tonnages of the desired products without causing the Adjustment
Ring bounce.
Closed Circuit
• As a general rule the CSS should be 1/8” (3mm) larger than the screen opening. Vary
the setting to find the optimum value at which the product tonnages are maximized

9 CONE CRUSHER – TC 51
T RI O
E N G I N E E R E D P R O D U C T S
APPLICATION AND OPERATION GUIDE LINES

without causing the Adjustment Ring bounce.

6. SPEED COMBINATION
• The unique ability of the Cone crusher allows you to choose different Eccentric
Speeds depending on the feed and product requirements. The crusher is shipped
with the Standard Speed bushing. Optional Turbo Charged Bushing is available. A
best Eccentric Speed will be recommended for your application.

7. SCALPER AND FINISHING SCREENS


• The scalper screen, used to take out products & fines before the cone, must be
properly sized with correct selection of the size, media, throw, speed, number of
decks, etc. to supply ideal feed to the crusher with minimum of fines.
• The finishing screen should also be selected properly, same as the scalping screen,
to take out the products at a minimum of 95% efficiency.

8. GOLDEN RULES FOR THE BEST OPERATION


• Do not bounce the Adjustment Ring
• Do not exceed rated power.

INSTALLATION INFORMATIONS

GENERAL INFORMATION
The Cone Crusher can be shipped either as a complete unit or in sub-assemblies. Instructions are provided for
the assembly and disassembly of the crusher components in the various sections of this manual.

FOUNDATION
The foundation drawing, furnished with your crusher, will govern the installation of the crusher. A solid, level
foundation of proper proportion and durability is very important for successful operation. A typical foundation is
shown in the section C-I.

CRUSHER CLEARANCE DIMENSIONS


(See Foundation Drawing)
One of the major considerations to be given to the construction of the foundation is crusher clearances. Adequate
room above the crusher is required for the removal of the head and bowl assemblies. Enough room should be
provided at the side of the foundation for the removal of the countershaft box assembly. Consideration should be
given to the additional clearance required for the feeding arrangement, such as: chutes, feed hopper and other
auxiliary equipment. Clearance should also be provided for the discharge compartment, conveyor and related
equipment.
In order to accurately determine crusher clearances, refer to the foundation drawing supplied with your crusher.

CRUSHER AND SUB-ASSEMBLY WEIGHTS


Another factor to be considered when designing the foundation, and planning overhead lifting equipment, is the
crusher weight. A overhead crane, a mobile crane, a chain hoist or other suitable equipment must be provided for
handling heavy crusher components during erection or replacement of worn parts. Size requirements for hosting
equipment including cables, slings and hooks can be calculated by referring to Table 2-1

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".

WHENEVER POSSIBLE, IT IS ADVISABLE TO PLACE A SCREEN HEAD OF THE CRUSHER TO REMOVE


FINE OR STICKY MATERIAL FROM THE FEED PRIOR TO CRUSHING. THIS WILL ELIMINATE PACKING,
EXCESSIVE ADJUSTMENT RING MOVEMENT AND INEFFICIENT OPERATION.

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.

CENTER DISTANCE AND TAKE-UP ALLOWANCE


(See Figure 2 - 3)
After calculating a center distance from a standard 8V belt length, make
provisions that the centers can be moved closer together by the amount
shown in Table 2 - 2, to install the belts. Also, the centers should be
adjustable over the calculated distance by the amount shown in the last
column of Table 2 - 2.

TENSIONING THE V-BELT DRIVE


Various methods of tensioning V-belts have been established. Two simplified methods will be
described in the following paragraphs; Tension-Deflection Method, and Percent (%) of Elongation
Method. Either of these two methods, if followed closely, will provide proper belt tension.
A-TENSION-DEFLECTION METHOD:

For tensioning the drive using the TENSION-DEFLECTION METHOD, proceed as follows:

1. Place a straightedge across the top of both 4. The force should approximate the
sheaves. (See Figure 2 - 5) forces shown in Table 2 - 3, for a

the span length, apply a force to the scale great operation, the drive should be
enough to deflect ONE of the belts 1/64" per retention to approximately the
EACH inch of span length. MAXIMUM force.

EXAMPLE:
-V-Belt Section = Narrow 8V Belt
-Span Length (Center Distance) = 112" BELT Minimum Maximum
-Deflection Force (See Table 2 - 3) = 34 to 50 SECTION Tension (Lbs) Tension (Lbs)
pounds
8V 34 50
-Deflection = 112" Span Length x 1/64" = 1 3/4"
Table 2-3. BELT TENSION
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.

B- PERCENT (%) OF ELONGATION METHOD

For tensioning the drive using the PERCENT (%) OF ELONGATION METHOD, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the slack from the belts. 3. Multiply this recorded length by the percent of

the nearest 1/8". Record this length. (See
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

a properly tensioned drive.

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.

THE TENSION DEFLECTION METHOD IS THE PREFRED METHOD


OF TENSIONING V-BELTS.

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 PRY BELTS in or out of grooves.

• 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 USE BELT DRESSING.

• KEEP ROCKS AND DEBRIS OUT of sheave grooves.

• 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.

• PERIODICALLY INSPECT BELTS AND SHEAVES.


o CHECK BELTS: Replace belts when they become worn, cracked, frayed, etc.
o CHECK SHEAVES: Replace when damaged or when there is more than 1/32"
(0.79mm) wear. Use a groove gauge to measure wear.
o CHECK ALIGNMENT: Make certain that the motor and crusher sheaves are
in correct alignment by using an accurate straightedge or chalk line

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.

The motor must also have 360° radial


belt pull capacity. The shaft should be CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN WHEN ORDERING

clearance between the motor housing
and the rim of the sheave.

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.

LOCKOUT ELECTRICAL SERVICE


1. ALL MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL MUST BE PROVIDED WITH A PERSONAL PADLOCK WITH ONLY
ONE KEY.
2. Always lockout all electrical controls before performing any type of maintenance work on the crusher.

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.

ADJUSTING THE BOWL (USING HYDRAULIC ADJUSTMENT)


For adjusting the bowl and to turn the bowl in or out of the adjustment ring using the hydraulic motor assembly
mounted on the adjustment ring, See "ADJUSTING THE CRUSHER SETTING" described in Section C-VI. The
hydraulic motor assembly rotates the bowl to the desired setting by engaging "teeth" on the large diameter
adjustment gear around the adjustment cap, and positively holds the setting until another change in setting is
necessary. Installation, operation and maintenance of these hydraulic components are completely described in
Section C-VI.

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.

DIFFICULTY IN TURNING THE BOWL


If the bowl is difficult to turn in the adjustment ring, it is probably due to galling or tearing of the thread surfaces on
the bowl, locking collar, or the adjustment ring. Such thread damage can occur during the initial assembly of the
bowl in the locking collar and adjustment ring. This damage is normally limited to the first thread on the bowl, locking
collar and adjustment ring, and appears on the flat surfaces of the threads. The metal shavings created by the
tearing of the lead thread can damage the remaining threads as this debris is carried along, as the bowl is turned
into the adjustment ring. Similar thread damage may occur in this manner when removing the bowl. It is important to
clean the "old" grease and metal shavings off the thread surfaces BEFORE RE-ASSEMBLY! To eliminate or
minimize thread galling or tearing, use the following method of installing and removing the bowl assembly:
1. Turn the bowl, using a mobile crane or an overhead crane or
some other lifting means to "float" the bowl in the adjustment
ring threads as shown in Figure 10 - 2. Read carefully the
instructions in section "INSTALLING THE BOWL" .
Whenever performing any of these BOWL TURNING
procedures, the BOWL ADJUSTMENT selector switch on
the operator control cabinet must be turned to SERVICE.
Considerable force might possibly have to be exerted in
order to "break" the bowl loose in the locking collar and
adjustment ring. One or a combination of any of the following
faulty operating conditions could cause the bowl to become
difficult to turn within the locking collar and adjustment ring:
• Not lubricating the bowl, locking collar and adjustment ring
threads at recommended periodic intervals.
• Worn or improperly installed adjustment cap seal. (See
Figure 10 - 5)
• Operating the crusher at the same setting for too long a
period of time, without occasionally releasing the bowl from
its crushing position and rotating the bowl back and forth.
• Locating the crusher where it is exposed to the weather,
particularly rain, without maintaining the adjustment cap seal.
THE FOLLOWING SUGGESTIONS WILL ELIMINATE THE POSSIBILITY OF EVEN EXPERIENCING A BOWL
THAT IS DIFFICULT TO TURN IN THE ADJUSTMENT RING:
• Occasionally release the bowl from its crushing position and rotate the bowl back and forth.
• Add grease in the grease fittings located around the side of the adjustment ring while the bowl is in the
adjustment ring. Establish a maintenance schedule for forcing grease into these fittings. Use the grease
recommended in the "THREAD LUBRICATION" paragraph found in this section.
• At the time of initial installation or whenever the bowl is removed, clean the threads and coat them with the dry
film lubricant recommended in "ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS" in Section C-V, prior to re assembly.
• Periodically check the adjustment cap seal for wear.
IF THE BOWL DOES BECOME STUCK IN THE ADJUSTMENT RING AND THE BOWL CANNOT BE ROTATED
BY ORDINARY MEANS, PROCEED AS FOLLOWS:
1. While the crusher is operating, feed a quantity of material or short lengths of lumber (4" x 4" or 4" x 6") [102 x 102
or 102 x 152mm] into the crusher with the bowl in the RELEASED POSITION. The BOWL ADJUSTMENT
selector switch must be turned to SERVICE and the CRUSHER CAVITY selector switch must be turned to
CRUSH.
2. Pour penetrating oil around the entire circumference of the bowl threads. Fill a grease gun with penetrating oil
and force this penetrating oil through the grease fittings in the adjustment ring. The penetrating oil will loosen any
packed dirt that may have filtered into the thread clearances and also loosen any rust that may have formed.
3. Try again using the hydraulic motor mounted on the adjustment ring to turn the STUCK bowl, however, it should
be stated that THE HYDRAULIC MOTOR IS NOT DESIGNED TO REMOVE A STUCK BOWL!
4. With the adjustment ring in the raised position and the safety blocks properly installed, jog the crusher by applying
short spurts of power to the crusher drive motor or engine to clear the crushing cavity. If this procedure does not
get immediate results, let the crusher stand for several hours while periodically applying Oil around the threads.

DETERMINING LINER WEAR


The following information will be very helpful when trying to
determine when the liners have worn to a point where
replacement is necessary. On the INITIAL set of liners, keep
"track" of liner wear as follows:
1. After the mantle and bowl liner have worn out, but before
moving the bowl within the adjustment ring, paint a short
horizontal line on the adjustment cap seal SHELL which
is bolted to the adjustment ring.
2. The "line or mark", should be painted on the shell, near the
hydraulic motor, so the crusher operator can easily see the
wear mark!
3. The mark painted on the adjustment cap seal shell will
show when the liners are approaching the wear limit as the
adjustment cap moves DOWNWARD with each change in
setting.
Because each type of liner (Fine, Medium, Coarse and Extra
Coarse) has a different thickness, AND each crushing
installation may require a different "crusher setting", it is very
difficult to predict the distance an adjustment cap will travel
DOWNWARD on a crusher.

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
powder.

CLEARING THE CRUSHING CAVITY


SHOULD THE CRUSHER STOP UNDER LOAD, NO ATTEMPT SHOULD BE MADE TO START THE
CRUSHER AGAIN UNTIL THE ENTIRE CRUSHING CAVITY HAS BEEN CLEARED. ATTEMPTING TO
START THE CRUSHER WITH THE CAVITY FULL OF MATERIAL MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS DAMAGE TO
THE CRUSHER AND CRUSHER MOTOR OR ENGINE.
Some of the reasons a crusher stops under load are as follows:
• Crusher drive motor or engine stopped because of power failure or lack of fuel.
• Too much feed entering the crushing cavity causing the crusher to stall.
• Discharge conveyor stopped (allowing discharging material to back up and plug the crusher from underneath).
• The gyrating crushing action of the head causes the material caught between the mantle and bowl liner on the
CLOSED SIDE to tip and raise the adjustment ring a small amount and stall the crusher.
• ON OCCASION AN OVERSIZE PIECE OF "TRAMP IRON" CAN BECOME CAUGHT, OR WEDGED
BETWEEN THE CRUSHING MEMBERS AND CAUSE THE CRUSHER TO STALL

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ENTER THE CRUSHING CAVITY WHEN A PIECE OF


TRAMP IRON IS WEDGED BETWEEN THE BOWL LINER AND MANTLE.

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
gauge on the side of the
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 HYDRAULIC CAVITY CLEARING SYSTEM TO REMOVE TRAMP


MATERIAL. DO NOT SIMPLY TRY TO LOOSEN THE TRAMP WITH A PRY BAR! SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY COULD RESULT!
8. When the safety blocks have been properly installed, LOWER the adjustment ring so that the
clamping/clearing cylinders rest on top of the SAFETY BLOCKS!
9. Turn the CRUSHER CAVITY selector switch on the operator control cabinet to OFF.
10. With the adjustment ring in the raised position and the safety blocks properly installed, jog the crusher by
applying short spurts of power to the crusher drive motor or engine to clear the crushing cavity.

DO NOT PLACE FEET OR HANDS ON THE CLAMPING/CLEARING CYLINDERS,


ACCUMULATORS, IN THE SPACE BETWEEN THE ADJUSTMENT RING AND MAIN
FRAME; OR ANY PART OF YOUR BODYBETWEEN THE CYLINDERS AND THE MAIN
FRAME LOWER FLANGE!

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.

31 CONE CRUSHER – TC 51
T RI O
E N G I N E E R E D P R O D U C T S
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

11. MAKE SURE THE ADJUSTMENT RING IS IN ITS RAISED POSITION AND THE SAFETY BLOCKS ARE
IN POSITION between the bottom of three (3) equally spaced clamping/clearing cylinders and on top
of the cylinder mounting ribs on the main frame flange. Then stand on top of the adjustment ring and use a
long pipe, wooden pole or a pry bar to dislodge the compacted material in the crushing chamber until it
falls out. BE CAREFUL! (See Figure 10 - 7)

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE CRUSHER BE STARTED AND CRUSHING


RESUMED WITH THE ADJUSTMENT RING IN THE RAISED POSITION. SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY AND SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE CRUSHER COULD RESULT!
12. Jog the crusher a few times as described in Step 10 and check for free head movement in the crusher. DO
NOT STAND ON OR NEAR CRUSHER DURING THE JOGGING PROCEDURE.
13. If the head is still not free, repeat Steps 10 through 12, several times or as long as material continues to
discharge from the crushing cavity.
14. After the crushing cavity has been cleared, turn the CRUSHER CAVITY selector switch on the
operator control cabinet to CLEAR to "raise" the adjustment ring. THEN REMOVE THE THREE (3)
SAFETY BLOCKS.
15. Turn the CRUSHER CAVITY selector switch to CRUSH. The adjustment ring will now LOWER and return to
its seating surface on the main frame SEAT LINER. The adjustment ring may lower with a SLIGHT TILT.
This is normal!
16. Resume normal crushing.

REMOVAL OF BOWL FOR LINER CHANGE


When the liners have worn out and are to be changed out, the bowl will need to be removed from the
adjustment ring, proceed as follows:
1. Turn the BOWL ADJUSTMENT selector switch on the operator control cabinet to the SERVICE position.
2. Turn the bowl out as described in "INSTALLING THE BOWL" in this section AND "HYDRAULIC
ADJUSTMENT (BOWL TURNING) ARRANGEMENT" in Section C-VI.
3. Lift the entire bowl assembly using the lifting lugs on the adjustment cap.
4. Place the bowl assembly on the ground and remove the adjustment cap, feed cone, feed cone adapter and
fiberglass insulation as described in "REMOVING BOWL AND ADJUSTMENT CAP ASSEMBLIES" in
Section C-V.

MAINTENANCE

Main Frame Liners, Arm Guards and Counter Shaft Guards


When the crusher is "down" for a liner change, inspect the upper, lower and countershaft main frame liners, arm
guards and countershaft guards for wear. To replace main frame liners, arm guards and countershaft guards,
proceed as follows:
1. Replace the worn arm guards by lowering them onto the mainframe arms.
2. Install the countershaft box guard by lowering it over the countershaft box
3. Since main frame liners are in sections, the installation of the liners is a somewhat easier task. The height
at which the liner is to be welded inside the frame is readily noticeable by the remaining weld from the
old liner. Use a 3/8" (9mm) fillet weld, 3" (76mm) long, spaced 12" (304mm) on centers, for both the upper
and lower liners. The five (5) upper main frame liners should be welded in the frame AFTER the four (4) lower
liners have been welded in place. Use E7018 weld rod on all welds.

Installing Socket
Once the eccentric assembly is installed and the backlash and root clearances have been established, install
the socket as follows:
1. Lower the socket assembly into approximate position on the mainframe and align the holes in the
socket with the four dowels in the frame.
2. Insert the socket head cap screws through the holes in the socket then into the tapped holes in the
frame.
3. As the socket has an interference fit with the frame, uniformly heat the frame around the socket fit to 38º
C (100º F) above ambient temperature. See Table 3 - 1 for the proper amount of interference between
socket liner and socket.
4. With a wrench, alternately tighten each cap screw a small amount to prevent binding.
5. Tighten all cap screws until the socket is seated in the frame. The socket imust seat with a clearance of
1/8” between the socket flange and the frame. Remove the cap screws and put plastic caps in all drilled
and tapped holes in the socket for protection.

2. Uniformly heating the frame around the socket fit to 38º C (100º F) above ambient temperature. Heating
of the frame is required to protect it from damage when removing the socket.
3. Alternately tighten each jackscrew a small amount to prevent binding in the frame.
4. Continue tightening the cap screws until they bottom in the threaded holes.
5. Back out the cap screws far enough to insert a steel block under each cap screw. Continue tightening
the cap screws until the socket is free of the frame.
6. Place the socket upside down on timbers or other suitable supports.

7. Place a 4" x 4" wooden block against the socket liner and hit against the wooden block with a heavy
hammer. Keep hitting the liner, moving around the bore and alternately hitting the liner at one point and
then at a point on the opposite side, until the liner drops free.
8. Make sure that the socket liner-seating surface on the socket was not damaged (dents, nicks, etc.) when
the socket liner was removed. These must be ground flush!
9. Then turn the socket over and center the new liner over the drilled holes in the socket. To prevent the
socket liner from turning, should the socket liner lose its interference fit, Babbitt will be poured in the holes
of the socket liner and socket after the liner is seated.
10. Place a wooden block directly over the top of the socket fit, as the liner has an interference fit with the
socket, and hit against the block with a sledge hammer or heavy ram. See Table 3 - 2 for the proper
amount of interference between the liner and the socket. Force the liner in place a little at a time,
moving around the perimeter of the bore and alternately hitting the bock at one point and then at a point
on the opposite side.
11. Pour molten Babbitt into the holes in the socket liner to provide a means of retaining the socket. liner
from rotating in the socket should the interference fit be lost.
12. Thoroughly clean and lightly oil the surface of the liner.

Removal of Outer Eccentric Bushing


To remove the burnt or damaged outer eccentric bushing from the main frame, proceed as follows:
1. Drill a series of 3/8” holes , spaced 4” apart, in the wall of
the outer bushing to the depth of bushing shoulder. Hold a
steel bar at 45º angle against the outside of the bushing
and break the top of the bushing into pieces by hitting the
bar with a sledge hammer. Do this to destroy the bushing
locks.
2. Cut a steel plate to a diameter slightly smaller than the
main frame bore. A plate 2" (50 mm) thick is required;
several plates of thinner materials can be used to
obtain this 2" (50 mm) thickness. Place the plate against
the bottom of the bushing. A HEX NUT CAN BE WELDED
TO THE TOP OF THIS PLATE AND WITH AN EYEBOLT
THREADED INTO THE NUT, CONNECT THE
EYEBOLT TO A CRANE OR SUITABLE HOIST.
PULLING FROM THE TOP, WHILE JACKING FROM
THE BOTTOM, WILL HELP CONSIDERABLY IN
REMOVAL.
3. Then cut a plate the same diameter as the main frame cap
also from 2" (50 mm) material. Torch cut three holes in the
plate the same diameter and on the same bolt circles as
those in the main frame cap. The three holes must be spaced 120° apart.
4. Suspend the plate from the bottom of the main frame by three long studs. Place a 50-ton hydraulic
jack between this plate and the one placed against the bottom of the bushing. A substitute arrangement
can be utilized by placing a steel rail or beam across the discharge compartment to provide a
support for the jack.
5. Force the bushing from the frame by exerting pressure with the jack and adding blocking as needed.

MAIN FRAME AND SOCKET ASSEMBLY

Installation of Outer Eccentric Bushing


Pre- Installation check:
1. Before installing a new outer eccentric bushing, inspect the main frame bores for scoring or rough spots,
these must be smoothed out.
2. Also check the bore to be sure that it has not worn oversize or shrunk undersize, due to the presence of
heat. Measure the main frame bore from bottom to top.
3. Removing the main frame cap will expose an area in the bore that has been unaffected by wear or heat,
since the cap projects about 1/2" (12 mm) inside. Using an inside micrometer placed in the bore, about
1/4" to 3/8" (6 mm to 10 mm) from the bottom of the frame will give the original bore diameter.
4. Once this dimension has been recorded, measure the entire length of the bore, checking about every 6"
(150 mm). At the same time check for out-of-roundness by swinging the micrometer 90° to the first
measurement and measure this diameter.
5. With a bore that has shrunk unevenly, the high spots can be ground off to the correct diameter. If the
bore has pulled in to the extent where hand grinding is no longer practical, the entire main frame bore
must be machined out to the original diameter. Also, in case the frame bore has worn out-of-round, it
should be re-machined concentric, even though the diameter would be increased. Re-machining
drawings are available showing the correct bore dimensions and their tolerances.
6. When a bore has either been worn or machined oversize, contact Trio for the purchase of a special
oversize bushing, giving re-machined bore dimensions so that the bushing can be machined to the
proper tolerances.
7. Outer eccentric bushings are machined to provide a metal-to-metal or a few thousandths loose fit in the
main frame bore. Should a bushing have such a metal-to-metal fit or be out of round because of improper
storage or shipment, the following procedure using dry ice is recommended.

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.

2. 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.
3. Place the steel plate used in removal, on top of the bushing and force the bushing into the frame by
ramming against the top of the steel plate.
4. The top of the bushing must be flush with the top of the frame when properly installed.
5. Pour the bushing lock.

MAINFRAME SEAT LINER AND FULCRUM BAR


To inspect the main frame seat liner for wear, use the "CRUSHER CAVITY CLEARING SYSTEM", which is
described in Section C-IV, to raise the adjustment ring to its maximum height.
BEFORE INSPECTING THE SEAT LINER for wear, the three (3) SAFETY BLOCKS provided with the clearing
system, are to be inserted between the bottom of three (3) equally spaced clamping/clearing cylinders and on top of
the cylinder mounting ribs on the main frame flange. When the safety blocks have been properly installed, LOWER
the adjustment ring so that the clamping/clearing cylinders rest on top of the safety blocks!
Using a flashlight, check the thickness of the seat liner all around the entire main frame!
WHEN THE SEAT LINER IS APPROXIMATELY 1/8" (3MM) THICK, THE SEAT LINER SHOULD BE
REPLACED. CHECK THE SEAT LINER FOR WEAR EVERY THREE (3) MONTHS.
1. To replace the existing seat liner, raise the adjustment ring to its maximum height
2. Then install the SAFETY BLOCKS.
3. LOWER the adjustment ring until the clamping/clearing cylinders are resting on top of the safety
blocks.
4. Proceed to remove the existing seat liner and replace the liner as shown on the drawing "FIELD
WELDING OF MAIN FRAME SEAT LINER," furnished upon request, from Trio.
5. After the new seat liner(s) have been installed, raise the adjustment ring to its maximum height.
6. Then remove the three- (3) safety blocks.
7. Lower the adjustment ring so that the adjustment ring returns to its seating surface on the main frame
SEAT LINER. The adjustment ring may lower with a SLIGHT TILT. This is normal!
When assembling the adjustment ring onto a new main frame seat liner, contact must be all around on the seat liner
as shown in.
To determine if the adjustment ring is seating correctly, place balls of putty on the main frame seat liner. Then lower
the adjustment ring onto the frame. BEFORE LOWERING THE ADJUSTMENT RING, LIGHTLY OIL THE
ADJUSTMENT RING SEAT LINER TO PREVENT THE PUTTY FROM STICKING TO THE SEAT LINER ON THE
UNDERSIDE OF THE ADJUSTMENT RING. Then lift the adjustment ring OFF the main frame. The putty will
compress and show if the ring is seating correctly all around!

COUNTER SHAFT BOX ASSEMBLY

Assembly of the counter Shaft Box


To assemble the countershaft box assembly, proceeds as follows:
1. Insert the countershaft assembly in the countershaft box.
2. To hold the countershaft stationary, place a large "C" clamp or any alternate method so that the pinion is
clamped to the countershaft box flange.
3. Place the oil flinger key on the countershaft. On some countershaft box assemblies the oil flinger key
requires to be welded to the flinger to hold the key in place.
4. Check the condition of the seal inside the oil flinger bore, if so equipped. Replace the seal if necessary.
5. Heat the oil flinger to a temperature of approximately 50° Fahrenheit (10° C) above the ambient
temperature and assemble it on the countershaft as quickly as possible. The flinger is properly
assembled when it is tight against the outer countershaft bushing.
DO NOT APPLY TOO MUCH HEAT TO THE FLINGER AS THE "0" RING OR THE GRAPHITE
IMPREGNATED PACKING WHICH PREVENTS OIL FROM LEAKING OUT ALONG THE
COUNTERSHAFT, COULD BECOME DAMAGED FROM THE HEAT.
6. If the oil flinger is equipped with a piston ring, check for the piston ring free movement inside the
machined groove. Replace the piston ring if necessary.
7. Check the bore inside the flinger housing before assembling the housing to the countershaft box.
Replace the flinger housing if the groove worn in the housing is too deep.
Replacing the Pinion
Whenever the countershaft box is out of the crusher for inspection or replacement of parts, inspect the pinion for wear
and/or chipped or broken teeth. Pitting or galling on the face of the teeth are indications of excessive wear. This can
be due to improper tooth contact resulting from an incorrect quantity of shims being placed under the eccentric thrust
bearing plate, by overloading the crusher or by using excessively dirty oil. If the pinion is worn to the point where
replacement is necessary (severe pitting/excessive backlash are evident), the pinion is to be removed as follows:

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT WHEN EITHER THE PINION OR GEAR MUST BE REPLACED, THEN
BOTH THE PINION AND GEAR SHOULD BE REPLACED AT THE SAME TIME!

1. Remove the countershaft from the countershaft box


assembly as described under "DISASSEMBLY OF
COUNTERSHAFT BOX."
2. Slide off the pinion thrust washer.
3. Drive out the tapered key, from the rear of the pinion,
4. Place the pinion and shaft assembly in a suitable
hydraulic press and force the pinion free of the shaft
5. Lubricate the end of the shaft and the bore of the new
pinion with a suitable pressing lubricant.
6. Place the pinion on the end of the shaft and align the
keyways.
7. Press the new pinion onto the shaft so that the end of
the shaft protrudes from the pinion approximately 1/4”
(6mm), A as shown in figure 4-1.

Replacing Countershaft Bushing


To replace the countershaft bushings, that have a press fit or those that have "seized" in the box because of a build
up of heat due to inadequate lubrication or from overloading the Crusher, proceed as follows:
REMOVAL OF COUNTERSHAFT BUSHINGS
1. Remove the countershaft box from the main frame and the
countershaft from the countershaft box as described under
“DISASSEMBLY OF COUNTERSHAFT BOX”.
2. Construct a steel centering plate as shown in the illustration
CENTERING PLATE.
3. Slide the narrow portion of the plate horizontally through the
bushing until the plate is behind the bushing.
4. Turn the centering plate 90° so that the outer edge of the
plate will bear against the bushing. See the illustration
COUNTERSHAFT BUSHING REMOVAL.
5. While holding the plate in position thread a 1" (25mm) diameter rod into the nut which is welded to the
center of the plate. The rod must be a few inches longer than the bushing and threaded on both ends.
6. Place a 1" (25mm) x 3" (75mm) x 12" (305mm) steel bar over the other end of the rod and hold firmly in
place with a hex nut.
7. Insert a long timber or pipe through the opposite end of the countershaft box and ram against the
centering plate.
Should the bushing remain tight within the countershaft box an alternate method utilizing a jacking procedure is
suggested to remove bushings which are very difficult to remove, proceed as follows:
1. Using the same centering device as previously described and in the same manner except for a much
longer rod and steel bar, place wooden blocking between the steel bar and the countershaft box flange
as shown in the illustration COUNTERSHAFT BUSHING REMOVAL.
2. Using the threaded rod as a jackscrew, tighten the hex nut until the flange of the bushing is pulled against
the steel bar.
3. Unscrew the nut and place additional blocking under the bar and tighten the hex nut until the bushing is
again pulled against the bar.
4. Repeat this procedure until the bushing is free.

COUNTER SHAFT BOX ASSEMBLY

INSPECTION PRIOR TO BUSHING INSTALLATION


Check the diameter of the bore in the countershaft box. The bushings are machined to provide a fit of 0.001 inch
(0.025mm) tight, to 0.002 inch (0.050mm) loose. The inside diameter of the bore and the outside diameter of the
bushing should meet these tolerances.
Check the shaft itself for straightness or run out. With the shaft between centers, the run out should not exceed a total
of 0.004 inch (0.101mm). If more than 0.004 inch (0.101mm), the countershaft should be replaced.
INSTALLING COUNTERSHAFT BUSHINGS
To install the bushing, proceed as follows:
1. Remove two of the four dowels or pins from the face of the box flange.
2. Insert two rods which are slightly longer than the bushing into these two
dowel holes. These rods will make certain that the holes in the bushing
flange line up with the dowels in the box.
3. Both countershaft bushings, inner and outer are identical. However, their
position in the bore may differ. The longitudinal oil groove in the INNER
countershaft bushing is properly located at the top of the countershaft. The
OUTER countershaft bushing is normally installed with the longitudinal oil
groove located at the top, however its position will differ if the motor
sheave is located ABOVE the Crusher. The outer countershaft bushing
groove must then be rotated 90 deg. from the top center in either direction.
Refer the illustration OIL GROOVE LOCATION
4. Pack the bore of the replacement bushings with dry ice for 2-3 hrs to shrink the bushings for easy
installation into the box. Approx. 50 pounds of dry ice will be required for both bushings.
5. Wrap the outside of the bushings in burlap to prevent the external build up of the frost.
WARNING: Use heavy, well insulated gloves when handling the dry ice to prevent severe skin
burns.
6. Very quickly slide the bushings into the bore of the box using the rods inserted in the box as guides.
7. Alternatively RAM the bushings into place by using a suitable block of wood across the face of the
bushing to protect it. Do not use excessive force and tap several times to drive the bushings small
amount at a time.
8. Replace the two dowels that were previously removed.

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.

Checking Backlash and Root Clearance


To check backlash and root clearance, proceed as follows:
1. Position the HEAVY side of the eccentric assembly near the pinion.
2. Remove all clearance between the inner eccentric bushing and the main shaft by sliding the eccentric
assembly toward the pinion so that the teeth on the gear are in their closest relationship to the pinion.
Hold the gear in this position while taking the backlash and root clearance measurements (See Table
5-1). Limit the force used only to that required to slide the eccentric assembly toward the pinion.

0.050” (1.27 mm)
Measurement to be taken at outer end of Teeth only.
Table 5-1.
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
WEAR COMPENSATION FROM TRIO.

ECCENTRIC ASSEMBLY

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:

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT WHEN EITHER THE GEAR OR PINION MUST BE


REPLACED DUE TO EXCESSIVE WEAR OR BROKEN TEETH, BOTH THE GEAR AND
PINION BE REPLACED AT THE SAME TIME!

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 HYDRAULIC PRESS CAN BE USED FOR REMOVAL OR INSTALLATION OF THE GEAR,


HOWEVER, HEAT IS STILL THE PREFERRED METHOD. IN THE EVENT THAT EITHER
GEAR OR ECCENTRIC HAS BEEN METAL SPRAYED TO INCREASE THE INTERFERENCE
FIT, INSTALLATION WITH HEAT IS TO BE THE ONLY METHOD USED. IF A HYDRAULIC
PRESS IS TO BE USED, REFER TO THE TABLE GEAR PRESS FIT FOR THE CAPACITY OF
PRESS REQUIRED.

Adjusting Gear Backlash and Root Clearance for Wear


When the gear and pinion tooth wear reaches the point that proper backlash can no longer be maintained, then
the proper ROOT CLEARANCE MUST BE MAINTAINED. This is done by adding or removing the correct
combination of shims which will give the proper backlash as specified in Table 5-1 under "ASSEMBLY
INSTRUCTIONS." Adding shims raises the entire assembly, thereby moving the gear and pinion farther apart.
Removing shims lowers the assembly to bring the gear and pinion closer together.

Inner Eccentric Bushing


Whenever the eccentric assembly is removed, the inner eccentric bushing should be checked for looseness,
burnt spots and excessive wear or cracking.

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.

Inner Eccentric Bushing Removal


The inner eccentric bushing is held in the eccentric by key. If the inner bushing is to be removed for
replacement, proceed as follows:
Turn the eccentric assembly on its side and ram it out of the eccentric from the small end using a wood block.

Inspection of Inner Eccentric Assembly Bore


Before installing a new inner eccentric bushing, inspect the eccentric bore for scoring or rough spots. These
must be smoothed out. Also, check the bore to be sure that it has not worn oversize or shrunk undersize due to
the presence of heat. Laying a straight edge along the inside of the eccentric bore will indicate if it is warped due
to heat. If the warp is not excessive, grinding the high spot is acceptable. If the warp is excessive the eccentric
must be replaced.

Inner Eccentric Bushing Installation


Store the inner eccentric bushings in a vertical position. Storing inner eccentric bushings other then in an upright
position will cause them to go out of round. If a bushing is out of round from improper storage, replace it with a
new one.

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.

1. Examine all oil passages to be certain they are thoroughly clean.
2. Apply a light coating of oil; not grease, to the main shaft and spherical surface of the head.
3. DO NOT LIFT THE ASSEMBLY BY INSERTING A ROD THROUGH THE MAISHAFT CAP.
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.)

WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO USE A CUTTING TORCH TO REMOVE PARTS BACKED BY

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Typically, the bowl assembly is shipped assembled in the crusher. On occasion, the bowl may be shipped
separately because of weight or other shipping restrictions. Prior to installation, the assembly must be
dismantled, cleaned and reassembled. To dismantle, clean, reassemble and install the bowl assembly, proceed
as follows:
1. In order to expose the full length of threads on the bowl, it will be necessary to remove the adjustment
cap if the adjustment cap was bolted to the bowl during shipment. Remove the hex head cap screws
and lock washers holding the adjustment cap to the bowl. Thoroughly clean the threads on the bowl,
locking collar and the adjustment ring, removing all dirt and rust preventive. Using an overhead or mobile
crane, lift the adjustment cap off the bowl assembly. Use the lifting lugs in the top of the adjustment cap.
2. After the thread surfaces on the bowl, locking collar and adjustment ring have been cleaned, spray a
DRY FILM LUBRICANT containing a mixture of MOLY (molybdenum disulfide) and GRAPHITE on all the
surfaces of the "buttress" threads. CHECK TO BE SURE THE FLAT HORIZONTAL SURFACES OF
THE THREADS ARE THOROUGHLY "COATED" WITH THE DRY FILM LUBRICANT. This spray is
commercially available and is Dow Corning, Dry Film Lubricant 321, or Sandstorm Products 27A, or Trio
Dry Film Lubricant - part number AA0449AN. Approximately THREE (3) 12 oz. (340 grams) aerosol cans
are required for the threads on the bowl, and THREE (3) 12 oz. (340 grams) cans for the adjustment ring
and locking collar threads. FOR BEST results, ALLOW FILM TO DRY BEFORE ASSEMBLY.
3. Then liberally coat the threads with lithium base NLGI No. 2 grease.
4. Bolt the adjustment cap to the bowl using the eight (8) cap screws that were removed in Step 1. Then
lift the entire assembly onto the adjustment ring using the three (3) lifting lugs on the top of the bowl. After
removing the lifting eyebolts, insert the hex head cap screws and lock washers into the tapped holes to
seal the holes in the adjustment cap.
5. The bowl is then threaded into the locking collar and adjustment ring. See "INSTALLING THE BOWL" in
Section B-IV Turn the bowl CLOCKWISE into the adjustment ring.
6. Turn the bowl assembly, using the HYDRAULIC MOTOR ASSEMBLY, to the desired setting by
referring to “CRUSHER SETTING AND ADJUSTING THE BOWL" in Section B-IV.

BOWL ASSEMBLY

Removing Bowl Liner


To remove the worn bowl liner and install a replacement bowl liner, proceed as follows:
1. Remove the Feed cone and Feed cone adapter from the top of the bowl
2. Remove the rectangular “U” bolt lock washers. Remove the “U” bolt nuts. Lift off the washers and remove
the “U” bolts.
3. Lift the bowl off the liner. Occasionally, if the bowl was improperly prepared, the backing material may
lock the liner in the bowl. If the bowl sticks to the bowl liner, ram vertically on the top of the bowl liner
hooks to break loose the backing material from around the hook openings.
4. Chip off any backing material that might remain on the bowl. Usually the backing material will adhere to
the liner but little, if any, chipping is required on the bowl.

Installing Bowl Liner


To install the bowl liner, proceed as follows:
1. Apply a light coat of lube oil to the inside of the bowl to prevent the backing material from sticking to the
bowl.
2. Cut U-shaped inserts using shears from fiber glass insulation. The paper backing should be left on the
insulation while cutting and protective non-porous gloves should be used when handling this material.
Cut the length of the inserts so as to provide a minimum clearance of ½” between the insert and the edge
of the bowl liner seat. Chamfer the corners of the inserts to allow the backing material to flow easily
around the inserts. Remove the paper covering and position the inserts around the liner hooks. Make
sure that the inserts will not interfere with the seating of the bowl liner on the bowl.
3. Lower the bowl in position on the liner, being careful not to disturb any of the inserts. When the bowl is
properly seated and centered, fill all clearances and voids around the hooks with loose insulation and
pack firmly in place using wooden wedge or something similar.
4. Install the U bolts and then assemble the thick steel washer followed by the rubber and fabric
composition washers followed by the thin steel washer. Now assemble the nuts and tighten them
securely so the rubber and fabric composition washers are firmly compressed.
5. Check that the bowl liner bears tightly against the bowl by using feeler gauge all around the liner seat.
Should any opening exist due to wear on this area of the bowl, pack these openings with silicone caulk or
clay to keep the backing from leaking out during pouring.

Pouring the Backing Material


1. The approximate amount of backing material to prepare is 5 kits. This amount can vary depending on
the liner configuration. Pour the backing material, filling the entire cavity behind the bowl liner.
2. Re-check all bowl liner bolts AFTER the backing material has hardened and then place the rectangular
lock washers over the bolt nuts.
3. Place layers of 2" (50mm) thick (or thicker), "unfaced" fiberglass insulation around and over the U bolts to
keep the dust and dirt from building onto the assemblies and thus making it easy to remove the nuts in
the future.
4. Re-install the feed cone and feed cone adapter to the top of the bowl. (See Bowl Assembly)
5. Lubricate the bowl, locking collar and adjustment ring threads following the procedure recommended in
"ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS". This is most important to insure free rotation of the bowl within the
adjustment ring. Then reassemble the remaining components.

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

C-VI HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

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.

Hydraulic Oil Specification


For this hydraulic power unit, use a high grade paraffin (not naphthalene) base industrial oil of viscosity specified
below, having high film strength, high affinity for and adhesiveness to metal surfaces, and stable chemical and
physical properties. Such oils should have a high viscosity index, rapid water separation, resist foaming, offer
some rust and corrosion protection, resist oxidation and have anti-wear additives.
For normal, all year operating conditions, the oil should have a viscosity of 140 to 160 SSU (Seconds
Say bolt Universal) at 100° Fahrenheit and a viscosity of 40 to 50 SSU at 210° Fahrenheit (ISO 32),
corresponding to a viscosity index of 90 or higher. For such all year operating conditions, lubricants with
viscosities higher than 300 SSU at 100° Fahrenheit or lower than 100 SSU at 100° Fahrenheit are not
recommended.
Viscosity at 100°F 140-160 SSU
Viscosity at 210°F 40-50 SSU
Viscosity Index (V.I.) 90 or higher
Correct oils meeting the above specifications are essential for the protection of the working parts in the power
unit. They are available from all major oil companies. Improper oils can ruin the parts and their use will void
any warranties pertaining to the power unit.

DO NOT USE FIRE RESISTANT HYDRAULIC FLUIDS AS THESE HYDRAULIC


SYSTEMS ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR THE USE OF SUCH FLUIDS.

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.

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.

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.
