Section 3: WORK PROCEDURE

3.1 MPS Cylinder Removal Mainshaft In Crusher

▪ Install site specific work platform to safely access the bottom shell crushing pocket and MPS
cylinder.
▪ Mainshaft will need to be blocked (supported) by installing steel bracing between the bottom
shell arms and the mainshaft.
▪ Start with the mainshaft at its lowest position raise the shaft 50 to 75 mm (2 to 3 inches)
install bracing to support the shaft at this level.
▪ Lower the shaft until the complete weight of the mainshaft is supported by the steel bracing.
Continue pumping the oil from the balance cylinder until the MPS cylinder oil pressure reads
0 psi.

WARNING
When working on equipment with lubrication and/or Hydraulic systems, precautions must be
taken to ensure that any stored energy has been eliminated. Escaping fluid under pressure
can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury.

▪ With the mainshaft supported, drain oil from the crusher by removing the bottom shell drain
plug (2120-0) from the bottom of the MPS cylinder flange.
▪ Then disconnect the lubrication and hydraulic lines and drain. Open the vent at the balance
cylinder to help drain the hydraulic lines. Cap/Plug ends of lubrication and hydraulic lines to
prevent additional oil leakage or spillage.
▪ If equipped remove bin level sensor and disconnect wires.
▪ If equipped remove Mainshaft position sensor and disconnect wires.

Gyratory Crusher - Superior MK-II 42-65 313-01-01-005
▪ When removing the MPS cylinder, it is normal practice to leave the eccentric assembly in
place unless the eccentric needs to be inspected or serviced. (See Figure 1)

FIGURE 1
▪ The eccentric support plate (1905-0), is held up by cap screws (1910-0), these cap screws
will retain the eccentric in position while the cylinder assembly is not in place.
▪ Locate the eccentric cart or skid under the MPS cylinder. It is recommended to use an
overhead crane to lift and lower the eccentric cart or skid with the MPS cylinder assembly.
▪ Install the 3 MPS lowering rods, pipe sleeves and nuts into the tapped holes in the bottom
shell. The lowering rods are used primarily to guide the MPS cylinder assembly into position.

WARNING
The lowering rods are to be properly threaded into the bottom shell until the thread bottoms
out inside the bottom shell. Failure to properly secure and maintain the tight fit of the guide
rods in the bottom shell could result in the component or assembly being guided to shift and
fall, causing serious injury and possible death.

▪ It is acceptable to support the weight of the MPS cylinder assembly with the lowering rods
while the primary means of lifting the MPS cylinder is being repositioned.
▪ To do this, thread the nut, washer and sleeve up each lowering rod until it contacts the
bottom side of the upper flange of the MPS cylinder.
▪ It is important that the MPS cylinder assembly is level when the weight is transferred to the
lowering rods. It is not recommended to turn the nuts on the lowering rods while the weight
of the MPS cylinder is fully supported by the rods. (See Figure 2)

▪ With lowering rods and eccentric cart in place, remove the rest of the MPS cylinder flange
nuts.

CAUTION
Check the weight of all loads before lifting. Make sure the lifting device and other components
that will support the weight of the load are in good condition and are rated for the weight of
the load.

3.2 Mainshaft Step

▪ Measure and record the mainshaft step grooves. If wear exceeds limits in the table below,
replace the mainshaft step. Oil grooves are 3/8" deep when new and component must be
replaced when worn smooth. A pocket containing silver powder will be released into the oil
at the wear limit of the step. If oil analyses reveal silver in the oil, the mainshaft step should
be replaced.

3.3 MPS Cylinder Dismantle & Inspection
▪ Remove the step washer (2280-0) and the piston wearing plate (2260-0) from the top of the
piston (2205-0). Screw a 1.25" eyebolt into the tapped hole in the center of the piston. Lift
the piston out of the hydraulic cylinder.

WARNING
The clamp plate (2325-0) may adhere to the bottom of the piston during removal and fall off
the piston after it has been removed from the hydraulic cylinder, causing injury or death. Be
sure the clamp plate remains in the hydraulic cylinder. While lifting the piston, a slight jar can
be used to separate the clamp plate from the bottom of the piston.

▪ Screw two 0.75" eyebolts into the clamp plate (2325-0) and hoist it out of the hydraulic
cylinder. Alternatively the MPS cylinder cover (2505-0) can be unbolted from the bottom of
the cylinder and the cylinder lifted off the MPS cylinder cover, again taking care that the
clamp plate is not lifted with the cylinder.
▪ Measure and record wear on the step washer and piston wear plate. If wear exceeds limits
in the table above, replace the part. Oil grooves on the piston wear plate are 3/8" deep when
new and must be replaced when worn smooth.
▪ Inspect and record the condition of the wearing surfaces of the bushings, piston, and clamp
plate. These surfaces should be free of wear and scratches which might cut the MPS oil
seal. Take special effort to inspect the MPS oil seal. This seal must withstand pressures up
to approximately 2000 psi (13.8 MPa) and should have no nicks or cracks.

into the clamp plate such that the pressure side will be toward the retainer ring. Install the
retainer ring with screws and washers. Use Loctite #242 on screw threads and torque the
0.375" screws to 24 ft-lbs (32.5 N-m).

METSO LCS Global Page 12 of 19

MPS Rebuild
Gyratory Crusher - Superior MK-II 42-65 313-01-01-005
▪ To replace the upper or lower MPS cylinder bushing, remove the bushing bolts (2060-0, or
2055-0) from the flange of the MPS cylinder bushing (2050-2 or -1). Then jack the bushing
from the cylinder, using the tapped holes provided for that purpose in the flange of the
bushing. The upper and lower MPS cylinder bushings are a close clearance fit. To install the
bushings, chill them with dry ice before attempting to install them in the MPS cylinder. They
may also be slightly out of round until installed in the thicker, more stable containment of the
cylinder. Install two long guide bolts (the length of the bushing) 180° apart, in holes in the
cylinder and in the bushing flange so that the joint bolt holes will match when the bushing is
seated in the cylinder. Start the bushings into the cylinder squarely, and push into place.
Install bolts and torque to 207-218 ft-lbs (280-295 N-m).
▪ To assemble the cover (2505-0), first place the O-ring (2506-0) into the cover groove. If not
already in place, install 0.5" diameter roll pin (2090-0) into the cover roll pin hole and then,
either raise the cover up to the cylinder with the three piston lowering rods (see Figure 7) or
lower the cylinder onto the cover plate. Be sure the roll pin seats into the corresponding
cylinder roll pin hole. Install bolts (2515-0) with nuts (2515-1 and 2515-3) and socket head
screws. Torque to 1400 ft-lbs (1898 N-m).

FIGURE 7
▪ To re-assemble the cylinder (2005-0), start by applying a light coat of oil on the upper and
lower cylinder bushings. Place two 0.75" eyebolts in the top of the clamp plate assembly
(2325-0) and lower it into the cylinder until it rests on the cover plate (2505-0). Next, insert a
lifting eyebolt into the top of the piston (2205-0). Lift and lower the piston into the cylinder
until it rests on top of the clamp plate.
▪ Replace the piston wearing plate (2260-0) being sure the dowel (2225-0) enters the hole in
the bottom of the wearing plate so that the plate is flat on the top of the piston.
▪ Place the step washer (2280-0) on top of the piston wearing plate with the concave side up.
Install the step washer retainer (2275-0) on top of the step washer. Then install retaining ring
(2276-0) to hold the parts to the piston.

3.4 Re-installing the MPS Cylinder
▪ Install the O-ring (2140-0) into the groove on the upper face of the MPS cylinder (2005-0).
▪ If they were removed, re-install the 1.75" diameter lowering rods in the bottom shell. (See
Figure 1)
▪ Place the MPS cylinder assembly on the maintenance cart under the crusher. Using an
overhead crane and the lowering rods as guides lift the MPS cylinder assembly into place.
▪ After the assembly is in place, tighten the nuts (2020-2) evenly (1400 ft-lbs [1898 N-m]) and
replace the lubrication and hydraulic piping.
▪ If equipped install the bin level sensor and reconnect wires.
▪ If equipped install the mainshaft position sensor and reconnect wires.
▪ Install the lubrication and hydraulic fluid.
▪ Raise the piston to lift the mainshaft and remove the blocking under the mainshaft.

3.5 Alternate Oil Seal Replacement

The following steps describe the procedure to replace the oil seal (2305-0) without removing the
MPS cylinder assembly from the crusher.
▪ Install site specific work platform to safely access the bottom shell crushing pocket and MPS
cylinder.
▪ Mainshaft will need to be blocked (supported) by installing steel bracing between the bottom
shell arms and the mainshaft.
▪ Start with the mainshaft at its lowest position and raise the shaft 50 to 75 mm (2 to 3 inches).
Install bracing to support the shaft at this level.
▪ Lower the shaft until the complete weight of the mainshaft is supported by the steel bracing.
Continue pumping the oil from the balance cylinder until the MPS cylinder oil pressure reads
0 psi.

WARNING
When working on equipment with lubrication and/or Hydraulic systems, precautions must be
taken to ensure that any stored energy has been eliminated. Escaping fluid under pressure
can penetrate the skin, causing serious injury.

▪ With the mainshaft supported, drain oil from the crusher by removing the bottom shell drain
plug (2120-0) from the bottom of the MPS cylinder flange.
▪ Then disconnect the lubrication and hydraulic lines and drain. Open the vent at the balance
cylinder to help drain the hydraulic lines. Cap/Plug ends of lubrication and hydraulic lines to
prevent additional oil leakage or spillage.
▪ If equipped remove bin level sensor and disconnect wires.
▪ If equipped remove mainshaft position sensor and disconnect wires.

▪ Install piston lowering rods on the bottom of the MPS cylinder. See Figure 8.

NOTE: Three lowering rods are installed.

FIGURE 8
▪ Remove the cover plate bolts (2515-0) and slowly lower the cover plate. The piston and
clamp plate will also descend, but they are not attached to the cover plate.
▪ When the piston is about 1" below the flange, a groove in the piston will be seen. Insert the
piston stop plate and bolt it to the MPS cylinder flange.
▪ The cover plate will have to be lowered and removed from the lowering rods to remove the
clamp plate.
▪ To replace the oil seal (2305-0), remove the screws (2325-2) whichand/or hold the seal
retainer ring (2325-1) to the clamp plate. Remove the clamp plate and oil seal. Install the
new oil seal into the clamp plate such that the pressure side will be toward the retainer ring.
Install the retainer ring with screws and washers. Use Loctite #242 on screw threads and
torque the 0.375" screws to 24 ft-lbs (32.5 N-m).
▪ To assemble the cover (2505-0), first place the O-ring (2506-0) into the cover groove. Next,
install 0.5" diameter roll pin (2090-0) into the cover roll pin hole and then raise the cover up
to the cylinder with the three piston lowering rods (see Figure 8). Be sure the roll pin seats
into the corresponding cylinder roll pin hole. Install bolts (2515-0) with nuts (2515-1 and
2515-3) and socket head screws. Torque to 1400 ft-lbs (1898 N-m).
▪ Replace the lubrication and hydraulic piping.
▪ If equipped install the bin level sensor and reconnect wires.
▪ If equipped install the MPS level sensor and reconnect wires.
▪ Install the lubrication and hydraulic fluid.
▪ Raise the piston to lift the mainshaft and remove the blocking under the mainshaft.

3.6 Balance Cylinder Servicing

▪ To service the two balance cylinders on a 42-65 gyratory crusher, start by relieving the oil
and gas pressure in the cylinder. If the mainshaft is removed or braced on the bottom shell
arms, continue pumping the oil from the balance cylinder until the MPS cylinder oil pressure
