MAINTENANCE
MAKE SURE THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM POWER
BEFORE SERVICING OR ACCESSING THE CRUSHER
Greasing is very important; with regular servicing it will extend the life of the machine.
Recommended heavy-duty #2 grease.
1. The jaw must be greased once every eight (8) hours of operation on the two nipples of
the movable jaw above toggle and below motor base.
2. Grease the two (2) side bearing nipples located on either side of the crusher. The
nipples have been extended up to make servicing easier. This should also be done every
eight (8) hours of operation.
3. Don't grease motor. This is a ball bearing motor and only requires grease after years of
operation.
4. The toggle should be periodically removed, cleaned and lubricated with a high
temperature wheel bearing or open gear lubricant.
5. The adjusting screw (grease nipple located on the Hex head adjusting nut) and the
adjusting block assembly (grease nipple located below the maintenance access port)
should be thoroughly lubricated monthly.
