2.2 KEY COMPONENTS

2.2.1 Engine Compartment
The machine is powered by a Deutz BF4M
1012C water cooled -72 kW (96hp) diesel
engine coupled to hydraulic pumps.
Fitted in a purpose built compartment it is
situated next to the hydraulic tank providing
easy access to all filters and gauges.
Access to the engine compartment area is
gained through access doors on each side
of the compartment.
2.2.2 Trommel Screen

The Trommel Screen consists of two screen-
ing drums.The inner drum has variable
aperature sizes which are varied by altering
the straps fitted around the inner drum.
The outer drum is fitted with 9 interchange-
able meshes for quick and efficient fitting.
The Trommel screen is driven by sprocket
and chain drive and supported by 4 nylon
wheels fitted with heavy-duty bearings, with
variable speed as standard.
2.2.3 Hopper & Beltfeeder

The Loading Hopper fitted beneath the grid
area is designed with a 6.8 cu metre(8.9 cu
yds) capacity and tapered sides for greater
efficiency.
The variable speed inclined beltfeeder fitted
with a 1050mm(42”) wide belt has a speed
of 0-16m/min.Driven by chain & sprocket the
beltfeeder can handle the most difficult ma-
terial with maximum efficiency.
2.2.4 Product Conveyors

The Fines, Middle grade and Oversize con-
veyors can be hydraulically folded from the
transport to working positions from their con-
trol panels at ground level providing easy ac-
cess and vision to each conveyor.
This facility can leave the machine ready for
road or site within minutes.
A standard feature of each conveyor is a vari-
able speed control to vary their independent
speed to match the material split through the
machine.
TE - 4
2.2.5 Nylon Brushes
The Trommel screen meshes are continu-

ously cleaned and maintained by 3 off
Nylon bristle brushes.
Each brush is mounted on an adjustable
frame ensuring the brushes continually
contact the screen to enable efficient
cleaning and maintenance of the meshes.
2.2.6 Central Control Panel
The Main control panel fitted at ground

level has all the controls centrally located.
This allows the operator to quickly and
easily optimise production preventing
unnecessary downtime.
The control panel is enclosed in a vandal
proof enclosure with a lockable hinged
front panel for added security.
2.2.7 Low Level Greasing
The 798 Trommel has central greasing to

all bearings.Grease pipes are returned
from each bearing to 3 panels at ground
level where maintenance can be per-
formed with ease.
(see the maintenance schedule in
Section:5 for a detailed checklist)

2.3 OPTIONS
2.3.1 Vibrating Grid
The Vibrating grid with loading dimensions
3.7m (12’-2”) x 1.9m (6’-2”) is designed with
split level scalping grizzly to achieve higher
screening efficiency. The grid is fitted with
interchangeable cassettes for desired bar
spacing. Cassettes are also interchange-
able with heavy duty mesh or punch plate
depending on application.The grid is sup-
ported on spring mounts giving excellent
support to the vibrating system.
2.3.2 Reject Grid

The Reject grid with loading dimensions
3.65m(12’-0”) x1.65m( 5’-4”) can be fitted
as a Manual tipping grid or it may be con-
trolled by Radio control operation.
The Reject grid hydraulically operates when
the radio control handset is operated.The
grid raises to a near vertical position and
then returns to the lowered position auto-
matically ready to loaded again.
2.3.3 Cutter Unit

The Cutter unit is fitted with a single shafts hav-
ing the option of fixed blades or flails which
can easily pulversise friable material. The cut-
ter unit will not pulversise stone, hard rock or
woody materials. The complete unit can be
hydraulically lifted into “out of line” operation
with a safety device built into the hydraulic sys-
tem to prevent the shaft from rotating when it
is lifted out of line.

5.2 SAFETY BEFORE AND DURING MAINTENANCE
Maintenance should only be carried out by trained and qualified personnel.
1. Whenever maintenance or service is being carried out a minimum of two (2) persons
should be present at all times. NEVER WORK ALONE.
2. Prepare yourself. Wear a hard hat, safety goggles, hearing protection and other protec-
tive equipment as required by job conditions. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery that
can catch on controls or moving parts. Long hair must be tied back.
3. Prepare the machine. Move the machine onto a level surface and apply parking brakes
and/or wheel chocks. Shut off the engine and remove the key. Relieve all hydraulic pres-
sure by returning controls to neutral. Secure all hydraulically operated attachments with
pins provided.
4. Isolate all electrical supplies to the machine before starting any maintenance work.
5. Never attempt repairs or adjustments to the machine while it is running. (Exempt to this
rule: Belt tracking adjustments are only possible during working process (see 5.7-5.8 Belt
Tracking).
6. Remove only guards or covers that provide access. Wipe away excess grease and oil.
7. Never leave guards off or access doors open when unattended. Keep bystanders away
if access doors are open.
8. When working beneath raised equipment, always use blocks, jack-stands or other rigid
and stable supports. Never work under unsupported equipment.
9. Performing work above 6’-6” (2m) always use an approved (EN/ANSI) safety harness.
Always use walkways and platforms provided or a safe secure platform approved by the
machine operators management. Do not use any unauthorised or unsafe platforms.
10. Never operate any type of engine without proper ventilation – EXHAUST FUMES CAN
KILL. (See Electrical and Engine Safety for more detailed checklist).
11. Checking for hydraulic leaks. Beware hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the
skin or damage eyes. Fluid leaks under pressure may not be visible. Use a piece of
12. Wear safety goggles for eye protection. If fluid enters skin or eye, get immediate medical
attention. (See Hydraulic Safety for more detailed checklist).
13. Clean or replace damaged, missing or painted over safety signs that cannot be read.
14. Rotating and moving parts must be inspected during maintenance and replaced if
cracked or damaged. Excessively worn or damaged parts can fail and cause injury or
death.
MA - 6
ENG
15. After maintenance, tighten all bolts, fittings and connections.

Install all guards, covers and shields. Replace or repair any damaged ones. Refill and
recharge pressure systems with recommended fluids.
Start the engine and check for leaks. Operate all controls and make sure the machine is
functioning properly. After testing, shut down, check the work you performed (any miss-
ing cotter pins, washers, locknuts, etc.)?
Recheck all fluid levels before releasing machine for operation.

5.3 HYDRAULIC SAFETY
1. Never disable or alter any hydraulic circuit or component without consulting with Finlay
Hydrascreens or your local dealer.
2. Any work carried out on a hydraulic system must be performed by an engineer with
special knowledge and experience in hydraulics.
3. Relieve all pressure in hydraulic system by returning controls to the neutral position.
Turn machine off and isolate power supply before any pipes, filter caps, filters or hydrau-
lic fittings are disconnected or removed.
4. Ensure replacement hydraulic components are the same standard and quality as the
original parts. Ensure they are fitted correctly.
5. Beware of hydraulic oil leaks. Hydraulic fluid under pressure can penetrate the skin or
damage eyes. Fluid leaks under pressure may not be visible. Use a piece of cardboard
to find leaks but do not use bare hand.
6. Wear safety goggles for eye protection. If fluid enters skin or eye, get immediate medical
attention.
7. Replace any damaged hydraulic pipe. Leaks can cause fires. Always ensure a replace-
ment pipe has the same specification as the original pipe, length, fittings, orientation and
diameter. Ensure pipes are laid and fitted correctly.
8. Do not exceed safe limits. Never set a pressure relief valve to a pressure higher than
that set at the factory. 175 Bar (2500 PSI).

5.4 ELECTRICAL AND ENGINE SAFETY
1. Never work on the electrical system of any equipment unless you are thoroughly familiar
with system details.
2. Work on the electrical system must only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
3. If machine is electric-hydraulic or direct electric drive, the ‘mains’ electrical supply to the
machine should always be isolated by unplugging/uncoupling the ‘mains’ power socket.
4. The electrical equipment of the machine should be inspected at regular intervals. Dam-
aged cables or loose connections must be corrected immediately. Use only original
fuses with the specified current rating.
5. It is recommended that an earth leakage safety switch be fitted in the supply line to the
power point on site. Special care should be taken to ensure that earth wires are correctly
connected.
6. Disconnect the battery ground leads whenever performing any electrical maintenance or
servicing to your engine.
7. Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds,
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
8. Never short across the starter terminals of a battery as this can cause a fire and could
also damage the electrical system.
9. Battery electrolyte contains acid and can cause serious injury. Avoid contact with skin
and eyes. Use gloves and protective glasses.
10. Diesel engine exhaust emissions contain products of combustion which may be harmful
to your health. Always operate the machine in a well ventilated area and if operating in an
enclosed area, vent the emissions outside.
11. Do not touch any part of the engine or exhaust system. Allow the engine and exhaust to
cool before performing any repair or maintenance.
12. Never fill the fuel tank with the engine running, while smoking or when near an open
flame.
13. Never overfill the tank or spill fuel. If fuel is spilled, clean it up immediately.

SECTION 9: APPENDIX 011203/02
RECEIVER PROGRAMMING
Each transmitter has a unique operating code and if a transmitter or receiver is replaced the receiver has
to be programmed to recognize the transmitter.
If a transmitter is taken from one system and used to operate another system by reprogramming the
second system the original system should be disabled by removing the 2 amp fuse on the receiver circuit
board and labelling the receiver with instructions to reprogram the receiver before putting it into service.
Otherwise the situation could arise that one transmitter will operate 2 different systems.
To program a receiver to recognize a transmitter proceed as follows: -
Remove the cover from the receiver unit casing by unscrewing the 4 fixing screws.
Ensure that “LED1” is turned on. This led indicates that the receiver is supplied with power.
Locate the “Prog I D” switch, the “Program ID” push button, the “Prog led” and the “Valid Signal led”.
(See Figure 1)
Set the “prog I D” switch to programming position by moving the switch lever to the left position.
Press and release the “Program I D” push button. The “Prog led” will turn on.
If the transmitter is turned off press the “ON” button twice within 2 seconds to turn the transmitter
on. The transmitter led will flash to indicate that the transmitter is active. With the transmitter turned on
press any transmitter-operating button (Except the ON button). The “Prog led” will turn off and the
“Valid Signal led” will turn on while the transmitter button is being pressed. Release the transmitter
button.
Set the “Prog I D” switch to the operating position by moving the switch lever to the right position. The
programming is now complete.
FIGURE 1
Replace the lid on the control unit casing and secure with the 4 screws.
NOTE. When programming do not hold the transmitter to close to the receiver. The transmitter should
be held at least 500mm away from the receiver.
