plants. Nordberg will welcome inquiries
regarding other suggested safety procedures
for use around their Crushers and related
equipment.
DRIVE GUARDS
Proper safety precautions start with the initial
installationoftheCrusher.Crushersaredriven
either by V-belts or by direct couplings to
motors. THE BELT DRIVE OR COUPLING
SHOULD HAVE A PROTECTIVE GUARD
AROUND IT.
Crusher-sheaves in particular are designed for
maximum rim speeds. If these speeds are
exceeded it is possible that the sheave could
explode and cause severe injury or even death.
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
eccentric shaft. This opening should be
covered with an access door or hatch.
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 THE MAINTENANCE
MEN WHO MUST INSPECT AND WORK
ON THE CRUSHER. A good operator’s
platform constructed of "solid" floor plate
should have hand railings, toe plates and wire
mesh or expanded metal between the platform
and the top of the hand railing to prevent tools
from dropping off the platform and hitting
someone working below. 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 ANYONE
IS WORKING ON IT. Each maintenance man
who normally works on a Crusher should be
provided with his own personal padlock with
onlyone key.When heworksonanyassembly
of the Crusher, he should 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 isworking on the
Crusher. If more than one person worksonthe
Crusher, each should have his own lock and
keyatseparatelockoutstationsforthecontrols
of the Crusher.Accidental start-up of crushing
equipment with men in the immediatearea can
beresponsiblefor manyaccidentsonwhatwas
supposedly a "clear" machine.
CRANES
Crushers, like any other type of mechanical
equipment, require normal periodic
maintenance if the operator is to get the most
for his money from the use of the machine.
One of the most flagrant Crusher safety
violations is the use of inadequate and unsafe
lifting equipment. Although a Crusher is not a
finely tuned piece of equipment, such as an
Safety

automobile engine, the internal parts of a
Crusher should be assembled and
disassembledwithcranefacilitiesthathavethe
capability of gently and slowly lifting and
lowering the various parts that make up a
Crusher. WHEN USING A CRANE,
ALWAYS OPERATE WITHIN THE
RATED CAPACITY OF THE CRANE. THE
SAFE RATED CAPACITY INCLUDES
WEIGHT OF HOOK, BLOCK AND ANY
MATERIALS HANDLING DEVICES
SUCH AS CABLES, SLINGS, SPREADER
BARS,ETC.SUBTRACTTHE WEIGHTOF
ALLTHESE TOFINDTHETRUEWEIGHT
OF THE LOAD THAT CAN BE HANDLED
SAFELY. Chain falls should be considered
only as a last resort to assemble and
disassemble a Crusher. When it comes to
safety, the best should be used.
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. Avoid fast swings, hoists
or sudden braking; these can cause overloads.
Do not handle large, heavy loads in strong
winds.
When moving your crane, check bridges
before crossing, make sure they will support
the weight of the machine. Check clearances
under bridges for overhead electrical lines or
any overhead obstruction.
Check your hitcher, be sure he’s clear before
starting lift. Make certain he securely attaches
the load.
TORCH CUTTING 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
canquicklybecomeamassofflames,resulting
in severe burns for personnel in the immediate
area. ALL MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL
WHO NORMALLY USE TORCH
CUTTING EQUIPMENT SHOULD BE
ADVISED IF THERE ARE HYDRAULIC
COMPONENTS IN THE IMMEDIATE
AREA IN WHICH THEY ARE WORKING.
Then adequate precautions be made to avoid
contact with these components. Rubber lined
hoses are not immune to the torch cutting
equipment which is used in normal plant
maintenance procedures.
CONVEYOR BELTS
DO NOT USE CONVEYOR BELTS AS
WALKWAYS. Conveyor belts leading to and
from the Crusher should be provided with
walkways alongside the conveyor. Always
provide hand rails along the conveyor belt
walkway as an added safety precaution.
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. Check your footing. Your machine
should be on a solid and level a footing as
possible. Use heavy timber mats as needed.
Trailers must be raised so that trailer wheels
do not touch the ground. Place screw jacks at
each corner of the trailer or as near the corner
as possible. All four jacks must be an equal
distance from each end. Adjust each jack until
the unsupported portion of the trailer beams
stop vibrating or until vibrations are reduced
to a minimum. NEVER leave your trailer in a
low spot where rains may wash out your
footing.
PERIODICALLY RECHECK TRAILER
FOOTING FOR STABILITY
When moving your trailer, check bridges
before crossing, make sure they will support
the weight of the machine. Check clearances
under bridges, for overhead lines or any
overhead obstruction. NEVER TRAVEL
WITH NEAR-CAPACITY LOADS, CHECK
Safety

LOCAL LAWS, ESPECIALLY ON
WEIGHTLIMITATIONS.When travelingon
the highway make sure all headlights,
clearance lights and tail lights are on. Use
proper traffic warning flags and signs.
CRUSHING PLANT "NOISE"
Crushing equipment by its verynature 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 IF NOISE LEVELS ARE
HIGHER THAN THOSE ALLOWED BY
LAW. If ear protective devices are
undesireable, consideration should be given to
reducing the amount of noise exposure that an
operator or maintenance man may be
subjected to. In other words, shorter working
hours.
Although alteration of the machinery to
change its noise characteristics may be
economically impossible, many operators
have found that the installation of a relatively
inexpensive operator’s station can improve
noise conditions. The operator can see the
equipment in operation and still be protected
from the noise through the installation of
acoustical tile double windows, air
conditioning equipment, etc. These working
conditions will normally result in a more
efficient operation and reduce potential
injuries from noise.
Many plant operators are finding that an
operator’s tower erected at an elevation above
most of the equipment provides both safety
features for the operator and increased
efficiency in plant operation.
CLEARING A CRUSHER
There are many unforseen 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. In many instances, the only
way in which the Crusher canbe restarted is to
literally dig the material out of the crushing
cavity by hand.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE WORK
A certain amount of work must be done in the
immediate area of the Crusher during the
normal course of operations on a day-to-day
basis. The following are some of the do’s and
don’ts to be followed as part of normal crusher
operating procedures.
1DO NOT perform maintenance on
moving machinery. This includes such
items as adding lubricating oil or
greasing parts of the Crusher while it is
in operation.
2DO NOT put hands or feet on the
tension springs which project from the
rear of the Crusher while the Crusher is
in operation.
3DO check the manufacturer’s
recommendations for periodic
maintenance procedures. These
maintenance procedures are designed to
not only avoid damage to the equipment
but also avoid harm to the operator as
well.
4DO 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.
5NEVER look into the crushing cavity
while the Crusher is in operation
without protection from possible flying
material.

3.1 CRUSHER TERMINOLOGY
Throughout this manual certain terms will be
used in describing the crusher and its
operation. In order that there will be no
possibility of confusion or misunderstanding,
these terms are defined as to their usage in the
manual.
Feed = The raw material that is to be crushed.
Product size = The size of the screened
material after it has been crushed.
Capacity = The output of the crusher
computed in tons per hour (mtph/stph).
Liners=Themantle(IM)andconcave(OM)
are the crushing members and are commonly
referred to as liners.
Feed opening (FO) = The largest distance
between the top of the crushing members as
measured when the two crushing members are
at their farthest relationship during one
revolution of the eccentric. As a general rule,
the maximum size of feed should be 60...80 %
ofthe opensidefeedopeningdependingofthe
crusher type and the raw material to be
crushed.
Crushing cavity (G) = The internal area
formed by the two liners.
Dischargesetting(S) = The distance between
the bottom of the crushing members as
measured at the point where the two crushing
members are at their closest relationship
during their gyrating circle (= closed side
setting, c.s.s.). The discharge setting regulates
product size.

Minimum discharge setting = The smallest
permissible distance between the bottom of
concave and mantle as measured at the point
where the two crushing members are at their
closest relationship during their gyrating
circle.
Discharge opening = The distance between
the bottom of the concave and mantle as
measured at the point where the two crushing
members are at their farthest relationship
duringtheirgyratingcircle.Thiswideopening
permits rapid discharge of the crushed
material.
Stroke (E) = The difference between open
side setting (o.s.s.) and closed side setting
(c.s.s.).
Open circuit operation = The type of
operation where precise uniformity of product
size is not considered to be of prime
importance and the feed is run through the
crusher only once.
Closed circuit operation = The type of
operation where precise uniformity of product
size is important and the product is screened
asitisbeingdischargedandthematerialwhich
does not pass through screen is returned to the
crusher.
3.2 NORDBERG GP200S-SERIES
CONE CRUSHER
The Nordberg GP200S-series cone crusher is
designed for secondary crushing purposes
eitherinsmallormediumsizecrushingplants.
There are two different crushing cavities
available: extra coarse (EC) and coarse (C).
The crushing cavities are fully interchageable.
Therearethree differentstrokes,18, 25and32
(3/4", 1" and 1-1/4") available for the G-Cone
10-series crusher. The stroke can be changed
by turning the eccentric bushing.
3.3 OPERATING PRINCIPLE
The crushing occurs between the fixed
concave and eccentrically gyrating mantle
(Figure 3.3.1). The countershaft of the crusher
is driven by an electric motor via a V-belt and
pulleys. The countershaft drives the eccentric
bushing through a gear and pinion. The stroke
is generated by the eccentric bushing, which
givesthemainshaftagyratingmovement.The
feed material enters the crusher via the feed
opening in the upper part of the crusher. The
crushed material leaves the crusher via
discharge opening below the crusher.

3.7 APPLICATIONS
Concerning the use of cone crushers, the
following main guidelines should be kept in
mind.
What is secondary GP-Cone?
— It is a steep head angle effective crusher to
be used mainly as a second crusher after
the jaw.
— It ’calibrates’ the product for tertiary
stages.
— It stabilizes crushing process by having
large vertical feed opening, which due to
its shape does not get reduced when liners
and concave wear. This means that there
is not adjustment needs for the setting of
the crusher in front (like jaw).
— It is a crusher to produce final product in
cases where top size is about 60-120 mm
(2 1/2"-5"). One typical productis railway
ballast, 25-65 mm (1"-2 1/2"), which will
be produced by close circuiting through
secondary GP-Cone. As a rule of thumb it
can be said that the minimum setting is
about 10% of feed opening. This is valid
with smallest stroke. Minimum setting
increases when stroke increases mainly
due to increased power draw. See
performance tables for more details.
What is secondary GP-Cone not?
— Itisnotafine crusher,meaningthatiffinal
product’s topsize is like 20-40 mm
(3/4"-1 1/2") the secondary GP-Cone to
producethis isnot therightchoice.Insuch
cases GP-cone with flatter cone head
(tertiary type) with large feed opening is
the right choice.

3.8 CAPACITY
The capacity of a crusher is affected by a
number of factors e.g.:
— The characteristics of the feed material
(size, hardness, toughness, moisture
content, bulk density, etc.)
— The method of operation
— The setting of the crusher
— The stroke of the crusher
The capacity can be estimated from the tables
below, if you know the stroke and setting of
the crusher. The actual capacity may differ
from the capacity estimated by the tables
depending of the factors given before.
