Important Safety Precautions
WARNING:
Failure to adhere to the following safety precautions may result in
serious injury or death.
• Perform a complete inspection before starting the crusher. Be sure that the crushing chamber is
clear. Make sure the cone blocking is removed.
• Be sure that all guards and other safety devices are correctly installed and tightly secured before
starting the crusher. Stay clear of rotating or moving parts during crusher operation.
• Do not allow personnel to be on or near the crusher during operation. The crusher will shake vio-
lently should tramp iron be feed into the machine. Stay clear of feed and discharge areas to prevent
being injured or killed by flying or falling rock.
• Rock projected upwards through the feed opening can injure or kill. Do not look directly into the
feed opening while the crusher is operating. Use mirrors or closed-circuit cameras if close observa-
tion of the feed arrangement is necessary for troubleshooting or evaluation purposes.
• Never attempt to clear jammed material from the crushing chamber while the crusher is operating.
Serious injury or death could result if you are pulled into, or fall inside, the crushing chamber.
• Never attempt to manually clear jammed material from the crushing chamber while the upper frame
is in the lowered (clamping) position. Any material lodged in the chamber could release without
warning, and may be propelled upward through the feed opening. Serious injury or death could
result.
• Do not tamper with crusher alarm components. Never attempt to defeat electrical interlocks or to
disable crusher protective devices.
• Never place hands on cylinder rods. Stay clear of pinch-point area between the upper and main
frames.
• Never stand on hydraulic hoses or use them as steps. If hoses rupture, serious injury or death could
result. As required, use a safety harness during servicing.
• Always lockout/tagout power to the crusher drive motor, crusher oil lubrication system and crusher
hydraulic system before performing any inspection, adjustment, lubrication, maintenance or repair
procedures. Also lockout power to all crusher feed and discharge equipment. Be sure pressure is
fully relieved before servicing the hydraulic system.
• If the crusher is powered by a diesel engine, always disconnect batteries and shut-off fuel supply
before performing any inspection, adjustment, lubrication, maintenance or repair procedures. Lock-
out/tagout engine controls to prevent the engine from being accidentally started while the crusher is
being serviced.
• Support the crusher upper frame with hardwood blocking or steel safety spacers before entering the
