1.0 Safety
Safety of Operators and Maintenance Personnel is of prime concern. The following paragraphs are
presented as a helpful guide to make you think and work safely.
This section of the Manual is intended to illustrate only basic safety procedures. Additional
precaution may be necessary for the safe operation of your equipment.
This information is not intended to replace safety codes, insurance requirements, federal, state and
local laws, rules or regulations.
1.1 Personal Safety
It is the responsibility of the Operator to know what specific requirements, precautions and work area
hazards exist, and to discuss them with his or her Supervisor. A common understanding should be
reached by all personnel to ensure safe performance in operating equipment.
The Operator is the key to safe performance. Good safety practices not only protect the people
around you, they are your own best protection. Look out for the safety and warning signs and follow
them!
Stop Accidents Before They Stop You!

Read and understand this Manual, learn your laboratory's safety procedure, know your machine and
surroundings.
Do You Know Your Employer's Safety Programme

Most accidents are caused by disregard of simple rules - learn their procedures - observe their
instructions.
Are You Dressed Properly For The Job?
Use and wear protective devices and clothing. Check your requirements with your Supervisor. Make
sure your clothing and personal effects are not hazardous or restrictive - loose clothes are dangerous.

Do You Know Your Working Area?
Orientate yourself in your local work area. Know the layout of machines, electrical
switches, fire extinguishers, etc. before you start work. Keep your area clean and tidy.
Do You Understand Your Machinery?

READ THE MANUAL; learn the equipment's operation,
capacity, and limitations. Understand and ensure correct
maintenance procedures. Know the controls, indicators,
safety devices and cut off switches.
Do You Know Your Emergency Procedures?

LEARN the procedures for accidents - fire - emergencies. Know the position and use of
extinguishers and first aid kits. Know where and how to get prompt assistance.
Alcoholic Beverages & Medication

 DO NOT use alcoholic beverages before coming to work or while on the job.
 BEWARE of medicines, tranquillisers or other drugs which make you sleepy or less alert.

1.2 Operating Safety
1.21 Before Starting Check

Equipment not properly prepared for operation is unsafe equipment. Run a careful
check at the beginning of your shift. If you find something that needs attention,
THINK TWICE before deciding to "let it go this time". Even minor mechanical
defects can lead to personal injury and accidents.
 DO NOT allow unauthorized personnel to operate the equipment.
 MAKE SURE all guards and other protective devices are in place,
secured and not damaged.
 NEVER TAMPER with safety devices.
 CHECK the equipment thoroughly for visual defects.
 INSPECT your machine according to the Operator's manual and your
Supervisor's instructions.
1.22 Report a Defective Machine

Inspect your machine daily! Check for loose, worn or damaged parts. Report or correct any unsafe
conditions immediately. Do not operate the machine until they have been corrected. Even a minor
defect can become serious. Report any machine defects to your Supervisor immediately.
1.23 Start Up Safety

 CHECK the equipment for warning tags.
 FOLLOW recommended starting procedures.
 AFTER machine has started, check everything to be sure it is operating properly.
 SHUT DOWN immediately if anything is not operating correctly.
 LISTEN for and report any unusual noises.
 DO NOT take a chance with a defective machine. REPORT IT TO YOUR SUPERVISOR.
1.24 Stopping Safety

Be sure the machine is stopped before cleaning, servicing, checking belt tension, removing housing
covers, making repairs, or attempting to clear blockages.
1.25 Before Maintenance

 Always lockout electrical controls before performing any
type of maintenance work on the equipment.
 When servicing the electrical power unit, lockout the
electrical service to the power unit, as depressing the
"stop" button will only stop the motor.
 Provide each maintenance person with their own
personal padlock and ONE key.

1.26 Maintenance
 Only perform the work you are authorized to do, DO NOT attempt repairs you
do not understand.
 Use the proper tools; keep them clean and in good repair.
 Use hoisting equipment for heavy lifting. SAVE YOUR BACK.
 Keep your machine clean.
 Check for worn, defective or missing parts during regular maintenance.
1.27 Use Quality Parts

We recommend user to replace part with the genuine parts from Rocklabs.
Any replacement part should always be of comparable SIZE, TYPE AND QUALITY as the part
being discarded.
1.3 REMEMBER - SAFETY IS UP TO YOU!
 Support efforts to make your work-place safe and healthy. Do your part, observe safety
regulations and established work practices.
 Act responsibly and with concern for the safety of others, as well as your own.
 Check all tools and protective equipment frequently, to make sure they are in safe working
order.
 Educate yourself and others in the hazards associated with your job and safe ways to perform
familiar tasks.
 Ask others how to perform tasks with which you are unfamiliar. Playing it "by ear" can lead
to costly accidents.
 Think over accident and injury possibilities before starting on any project. Take appropriate
precautions to protect yourself and others.
 Warn others of the possibility of accidents and injuries if you see them working unsafely or
creating potential hazards.
 Stay alert for changes in work conditions and the work process.
 Report unsafe acts and conditions immediately to your Supervisor. Don't assume that
someone else will do it.
 Keep your work area clean. Keep tools and materials picked up and properly stored.

2.0 Unpacking
1) Before unpacking please check you have received a crate (see photo 1&2) including:

- 1x Motorized Vibratory Feeder
2) Remove the crate from around the BOYD-RSD Combo by:

a) Removing the screws around the base (see photo 4).
b) With 2 people, lift the crate off the pallet carefully.
*Note A: Check for possible damages in transit. Report any damage immediately to the
Transport Company who delivered the Crusher and to ROCKLABS LTD by
email or fax with digital photos as evidence. Failure to report any damage
immediately may negate any claim against transit insurance.
*Note B: Please take extra care when moving the crusher unit because it is TOP HEAVY.
Photo 1&2: Packing of the Boyd Crusher (front and back view).

3) Remove all transit hold down bolts: two in front and two at the back (see photo 3).
Photo 3&4: Left photo showing one of the hold down bolts (circled in red) and right photo showing
the three screws at one of the four corners securing the crate.
4) Use a fork hoist to unload the Boyd Crusher and RSD unit with extreme care. BE CAREFUL
with the forklift blades. Place it carefully at the desired location. If you require securing the
machine in position, please see foot print drawings as located in the “8.0 Mechanical Drawings”.
5) Use qualified electrician to connect plug (not supplied) to the cable located at the rear of the
machine.

3.0 Installation
Remember to fill out your Warranty Form on page 3 of this manual. The serial number can be found
engraved on a silver manufacturing plate, located at the rear of the machine and also on the corner of
the cabinet base (accessed by lifting the crusher lid). See photo 5,6 & 7.

manufacturing plate
Photo 6: (below) one of the Rocklabs

manufacturing plate located at the
rear of the machine.
Photo 7: (bottom right) One of the Rocklabs

manufacturing plate located inside
the machine cabinet.
3.1 Boyd Crusher
1) The Boyd Crusher is a heavy machine so it must be installed on a strong timber or concrete
floor.. Each leg has a moulded polyurethane foot insert, to help prevent the Crusher moving.
2) In a Boyd Crusher, the sample stays in the Crusher longer than other crushers because it is
being crushed much finer. The crushing action creates heat. To prevent this heat damaging
bearings, etc, it is essential to allow full ventilation. If the Boyd Crusher is to be used for more
than two hours continuously, it must be vented by forced air circulation. Connect the 50 mm

pipe at the rear (see picture 6) of the cabinet to the laboratory dust extraction system. The
airflow should be at least 2.83m3/min (100 foot3/min) but not more than 4.25m3/min (150
foot3/min) or fine particles falling from the Crusher jaws may be preferentially removed in the
air stream, biasing the crushed sample. Dust extraction will not remove all fine dust, so the
Boyd Crusher should be cleaned regularly.
3) When the Crusher is installed, check immediately for any bolts, nuts or foreign objects
between the jaws. If the Crusher is started up or operated at any time with unbreakable material
between the jaws, the Crusher bearings or drive shafts could be seriously damaged.
4) All Boyd Crushers are fully greased and test run before dispatch so there is no need to grease
the Crusher before commencing operation.
*Note A: Direction of rotation is indicated on the Boyd Crusher where the arrows are printed
on the side of the flywheel guards. See section 4.0 Operation.
3.2 Motorised Feeder Unit
1) The motorized feeder should be unwrapped and ready for installation

2) Six screws should be already provided as shown in picture 8. Loosen these screws and place
it in a safe place
3) Place the motorized feeder in the designated Boyd Crusher area from the small square side
opening. Plug in the two cables into the appropriate sockets (as per labels). See picture
10.
4) Use the six screws that were previously removed to secure the feeder in place.
5) The feeder is now installed (see picture 11).

screws (circled in red) provided in the shipment. On the right, showing the
motorized feeder (with the six screw holes) ready for installation.

Photo 10&11: On the left, showing the motorized feeder with the two cables ready for
installation. On the right, showing the motorized feeder fitted in place.

3.3 RSD
1) When the Boyd Crusher is standing in its correct position, stand the RSD alongside.
Carefully place the RSD into position with its lid open
2) Align the RSD alongside the Boyd Crusher so that the tube on the feeder tray is central to the
top pulley of the RSD cone feed tube.
3) Connect the two cables to the Boyd Crusher electrical sockets (as per labels). See photo 12.
Make sure the cables are connected to the right socket as the plugs are different!
4) The RSD produces some fine dust from the falling sample and this should be removed.
Connect the 50 mm pipe at the rear (see picture 6) of the cabinet to the laboratory dust
extraction system. The airflow should be at least 2.83m3/min (100 foot3/min) but not more
than 4.25m3/min (150 foot3/min) or fine particles falling from the RSD cone may be
preferentially removed in the air stream, biasing the crushed sample. Dust extraction will not
remove all fine dust, so the RSD should be cleaned regularly.
*Note A: The feeder tray must not touch any part of the Boyd or the RSD.
*Note B: The feeder tray must pass through the slot of the RSD lid without touching the lid.
*Note C: Direction of rotation is located on both Boyd Crusher and RSD. For the Boyd
Crusher, the arrows are indicated on the side of the flywheel guards.
For the RSD, the arrow is indicated with an arrow sticker, located on the front of
pulley.

of the labeled sockets. The main image shows where the sockets are located.

4.0 Operation
In most jaw crushers, one jaw is driven and one is stationary. The stationary jaw is moved to adjust
the bottom opening width. In a Boyd Crusher, both jaws move, one top driven, one bottom driven.
The top jaw can be adjusted for variation in output size and jaw wear.
The Boyd Crusher is unique in design and can produce a fine output, but it can be opened up with the
bottom adjusting bolts to produce a coarser product. As with any crushers, the finer the product, the
slower the production rate.
4.1 Boyd Crusher
4.11 Relative Motion of Crusher Jaws
Photo 13: (Above) Correct direction of the

timing belt movement.
Photo 14: (Top Left) Side of the Crusher unit.
Photo 15: (Left) Correct direction of the drive

belt movement.

For maximum throughput of sample it is important that the motion of one jaw is related to the motion
of the other jaw (see photo 13, 14 &15). If the timing belt that connects the two flywheels is replaced,
ensure that the flywheels are correctly aligned when the new belt is put in place
When the Crusher leaves the factory it is set with the bottom gap at 2mm minimum, with both rollers
touching the back of the jaw across its whole width. If a finer product is required, reduce the bottom
gap carefully. Do not allow the jaws to touch or the bearings will be damaged. Turn both bottom
adjustment bolts by the same amount.
The Boyd Crusher is designed to finely crush material down to 2mm. It is possible for the crusher to
crush finer than 2mm but we DO NOT RECOMMEND anyone to do that.
4.12 Adjusting the Jaws
The Boyd Crusher is not a normal jaw crusher. To achieve a finer output over the whole length of life
of each set of jaw plates, the jaw adjustment should be checked weekly. When adjustment is needed,
only adjust the top jaw (front of the machine) by adjusting the two bottom adjusting bolts, as the
bottom jaw (back of the machine) is set in the factory. See pictures 16&17.
Photo 16(left) & 17(right): Top Jaw adjusting bolts are located at the front of the Boyd Crusher
The Boyd Crusher is effectively two crushers in one. The 3mm top throw on the front jaw crushes the
coarser pieces. The 2mm bottom throw on the rear jaw crushes everything finely, before it leaves the
crusher.
It may be necessary to open the jaws, if something gets jammed between them. When re-setting the
jaws, ensure that the bottom gap is parallel and that the jaws contact the adjustment rollers along the
whole length of the roller.
To achieve the best result quickly, use aluminum wire ( as described in the back of the manual ), to
test whether the bottom gap is correct and even across the whole face of the jaws.

4.13 Adjusting the Jaw Rollers – The “Paper Test”
The recommended test is to use a 0.1mm feeler gauge or a piece of photocopy paper. Before
carrying out this test, make sure you have turned the crusher unit OFF.
Photo 18&19: (top) Arrows pointing to the gap between the jaw roller
shaft and the bottom jaw at different positions.
If you are using photocopy paper, make a strip about 100mm long and 20mm wide. Now try to push
the feeler gauge or photocopy paper strip between the roller and the jaw (see red arrow in photo
18&19). See also label instructions sticker on the Boyd Crusher (see photo 20), for both top and
bottom jaw and roller, on one side of the roller***. If there is no space for the gauge or paper, try the
other side. If both sides are ok, the jaw must be parallel. If there is a gap on one side, adjust the
adjusting bolt on that side until there is no more gap. When it is well adjusted, tighten the lock nuts
to secure the bolts in position.
After any adjustment of the bolts, put some samples through
the crusher and check one more time in case there has been
some movement. Repeat the paper test again to ensure there
was no movement during the crushing.
A regular check on both the top and bottom rollers will
minimise damage to the bearings and shafts. We recommend
this “Paper Test” to be carried out once a month to prolong
the crusher life.
*Make sure the BOTTOM and the TOP ROLLERS are
both checked with the “Paper Test”.
**Do the “Paper Test” once a month to minimize
maintenance on the crusher bearings and shafts.
***Note: the top roller is set in the factory and should not
be adjusted

4.14 Jaw Wear Plates
As the Boyd Crusher is crushing finer than most jaw crushers, the jaw wear rate may be higher than
for other crushers.
The replaceable plates could be made very thick but experience has shown that once 5-10mm of wear
has occurred, the jaw shape is altered sufficiently to reduce crushing efficiency, i.e. the production
rate will fall and the fineness will reduce.
For ease of cleaning and for maximum fineness of crushing, the plates have smooth faces. Plate life
will obviously depend on the number of samples crushed per day and how abrasive each sample is.
The pattern of wear on the plates will vary from one laboratory to another. It may be smooth or
several grooves running down the plates. When the wear plates have worn so that the product is no
longer acceptable, the plate should be rotated top to bottom, i.e. the top of each plate becomes the
new bottom. If this has already been done, it is time for a new set of plates. To move the plates, use
the special gripping tool provided. BE CAREFUL! The plates are heavy and have a sharp edge and
this could injure you, if you drop the plate.
The wear plates are held in place by a wedge bar that is bolted on to the jaw, near the top of the jaw.
The wedge bar is a separate part from the wear plate. Depending on the dimensions of the lumps of
sample going into the crusher, the wedge bar may need replacing each time the wear plates are
changed or they may need changing very seldom.
The wedge bar is held in place with 5x M8 cap screws, these screws are locked in with Loctite to a
torque setting of 28 Newton meters (Nm).
4.15 Side Wear Plates (Cheek Plates)
We recommend that the cheek plates to be checked regularly for wear. It is important to monitor the
cheek plates wear to ensure the sample is crushed to its specification. Most of the wear occurs
behind the moving jaws and cannot be seen. Therefore please ensure that the cheek plates are
checked once a month.
When the cheek plates wear more than 2mm, then it is time to change them. The cheek plates can be
reversed, front to back, for doubling the life of the plates.
Undo the M8 capscrew securing the plate in the housing. The plates can be slid out vertically. Turn
the plate over and refix it in the housing. If the plate has already been turned, please replace it with a
new one. It is not necessary to change both plates at the same time. You only need to change the
plate where necessary.

4.16 Recommendations for Boyd Crusher Users
You MUST ensure that your Boyd motor is running in the correct direction (see photo 13, 14 &15 in
section 4.11).
For a Mark 3 Boyd: the front jaw (the one nearest to the operator) should move upwards and towards
the operator, i.e. away from the other jaw.
1) If you are uncertain, please contact us immediately as operating the crusher in the wrong
direction may lead to parts failing or low production rate.
2) When looking into the crusher jaws from above, it is not easy to see how much wear there is in
the cheek plates. If the plate wears more than 2 to 2.5mm, pieces of sample can fall down the
groove worn in the cheek plate, without being crushed properly. If the sample falls into a sample
bin in your Crusher, these larger pieces may be seen at the side of the bin.
If the product from the Boyd is checked with a screen, the operator will see the larger pieces on
the screen and close the jaws to try and prevent this. This will NOT prevent the larger pieces from
falling down the cheek plate groove but the production rate will decrease. Therefore we strongly
recommend that the cheek plates be lifted out and inspected at least once per MONTH. If the
groove in the cheek plate is more than 2.5mm deep, turn the cheek plate over. If the cheek plate is
worn right through, replace it IMMEDIATELY or the side plate of the crusher will get worn and
could break.
3) In the Mark 3 Boyd, the jaw wear plate is held in place by a wedge bar at the top. The wedge bar
is held in place with five caphead screws. If these screws are over-tightened, the jaw may be over
stressed. To ensure a good fit, tighten the screws to 28 Newton metres (Nm) only, and use Loctite
on the threads.
4) Most Boyd Crushers are being used to produce finely crushed material e.g. 6mesh, 10mesh. For
this type of product, the jaws are normally set with a minimum gap of about 2mm.
A small change in the gap can produce a big change in the production rate, so check your samples
carefully. If they are crushed finer than necessary, open the jaw a little e.g. one sixth of a turn of
the adjustment bolts. Increasing the gap a little, increases the production rate, decreases the stress
on the crusher and increases the life of the wear plates.
5) Boyd Crushers require very little greasing, but grease can very slowly leak from sealed bearings.
The bearings may need re-greasing. (RECOMMENDATION IS ONE SHOT OF
GREASE PER BEARING PER MONTH OF NORMAL RUNNING )Have you ever
taken your Boyd Crusher apart and checked the bearings? Contact us for help.

4.2 RSD
To set the split %, loosen the two knurled knobs holding the cones and rotate the top cone to the
correct position. A scale is provided as a guide. For an accurate %, run several samples through the
Combo and weigh the splits. Then make any small adjustments to the position of the top cone, to
achieve the desired split %. Once set, successive splits should be +/-3% relative or better in weight.
Ensure that the “Sample” and “Remainder” bins are in position under the cones.
The RSD is run in connection with the Boyd Crusher and will start automatically when the Boyd
Crusher is switched on.
If the RSD lid is opened, the lid safety switch (at the rear of the RSD) will turn both the RSD and
Boyd Crusher off. To start the RSD again, close the lid and push the START button on the front of
the Boyd Crusher.
4.3 Guidelines for adjusting the vibratory feeder
Setting of vibratory feeder is as follows:
At the front end of the Boyd cabinet there is the Stop/Start station, the Vibratory Feeder control dial
is situated below the “Running L.E.D.”
1) Adjust the dial clockwise to speed up the Vibratory Feeder as desired.
2) Adjust the dial anti clockwise to slow down the Vibratory Feeder as desired.
IMPORTANT!
Under no circumstances is the Operator to alter ANY settings on the Variable Speed Drive
(VSD). If you have problems with the VSD, please contact Rocklabs.

5.0 Maintenance
5.1 Cleaning the Boyd Crusher
As with any laboratory equipment, ensure a high standard of cleanliness. Do not allow anything to
block the motor vents or the motor could overheat.
To clean the jaws, use a brush or scraper on the upper area of the jaw surface. Use a vacuum cleaner
and brush in preference to air blasting, to minimise dust nuisance in the laboratory. Dust extraction
equipment cannot remove air as fast as air blasting produces it.
In the bottom section of the jaws, the gap between them is narrow and there is not room for brushing.
Scrape the jaws with a stiff metal scraper, like a steel ruler. For optimum cleaning, put some "blank"
rock through the Crusher between samples.
If the Crusher jams, turn the Crusher OFF. Open the jaws a little with the front adjusting bolts, using
a suitable spanner and turn the Crusher ON again except when the jam is caused by the presence of
something very hard, e.g. a bolt, nut, piece of drill, etc.
5.2 Cleaning the RSD
To minimize the amount of dust falling inside the RSD cabinet, connect the dust extraction tubing at
the rear of the cabinet to your dust extraction piping.
The RSD is largely self-cleaning, apart from a light film of dust on the cones and feeder. If this dust
is a problem, open the lid and clean with a vacuum cleaner or a rag. We do NOT recommend blowing
the dust away with an air gun – this is a health hazard.
5.3 Boyd Crusher Regular Maintenance
5.31 Lubrication
With all laboratory crushers, a difficult design decision must be made. Should the bearings be
lubricated and sealed for life, or should the bearings be lubricated every few weeks or months?
It is very common for bearings to be over-greased, i.e. more grease, more often than is required.
Over-greasing leads to bearing seals being pushed out of place so dust gets into the bearing.
1. The motors supplied with most Boyd Crushers require no lubrication, they have sealed bearings.

2 On the crusher the bearings mounted on the outside of the side plates, to support the drive shaft, are
type 22210C3 self aligning roller bearings (9BYDS3007). They are lubricated prior to leaving the
factory. These bearing units have grease nipples and should be greased every month(160 hours)
with a single shot of grease injected into the grease nipples.
3. The crusher jaw bearing, inside the jaws are type NU2210 steel cage roller bearing (9BYDS3006).
These bearing units have grease nipples and should be greased every 3 months with a single shot
of grease( 160 hours) injected into the grease nipples (see photo 16&21).
If the crusher is taken apart for any reason, check all bearings. Replace or re-grease as required.

5.32 Opening Jaws for Plate Replacement, clearing Jams, etc

The shaft of the top adjustment roller can be removed, through the slots in the side plates, so the
bottom driven jaw can be rotated into a horizontal position.

5.33 Monitoring Bearing Temperature
At Rocklabs Ltd., the “Temperature Gun”, or also known as “Heat Gun”, is used as a diagnostic
device to register any increase in bearing temperature. If this instrument is used for this purpose, say
once a week, major bearing failures can be averted.
When there is a noticeable difference in bearing temperature, an increase of 5 - 10°C, from one side
to the other this indicates either the bearing is lacking grease or is over greased or a bearing failure
has occurred or all three have occurred.
The Crusher should be stopped immediately and the problem will need to be investigated and
rectified.
*Please see Appendix A for “Guideline to using the Heat Gun”.
5.4 Boyd Crusher Long Term Maintenance
The Boyd Crusher is designed for ease of maintenance. The whole Crusher can be dismantled in
thirty minutes, or less. The crushing compartment is built like a box, so it can be lifted off the frame
and placed on a bench in a workshop, if this is necessary. BE CAREFUL, it is heavy.
To speed up the stripping down and rebuilding of the crusher, ROCKLABS can supply a kit of tools
and instructions on their use. These tools were developed in our factory to speed up our own
manufacture.
The jaws have a tapped hole in the top for a 10mm ring bolt, so the jaws can be lifted out and
repositioned more easily with a ring bolt. BE CAREFUL. The jaws are heavy and fingers could be
damaged, if care is not taken. The ring bolt should be replaced with a 10mm grub screw after
maintenance is completed, to prevent them filling with dust during operation.
If any bearing needs replacing or is just worn, replace it, to avoid unexpected breakdowns. Boyd
Crushers do far more work per hour then most laboratory crushers, so an annual overhaul should be
planned, if the crusher is used every day. We recommend a complete overhaul every 20,000 hours
operation.
*Please see appendix B for “Boyd Crusher Rebuild Guidelines”.

5.5 RSD Regular Maintenance
There is very little maintenance for the RSD. However there are some areas should be checked
regularly for longer life of RSD.
1) Clean cone area for build up of dust. If there is a lot of dust built up in between the cones, it will
be very difficult for the operator to rotate the cone when needed.
2) Check drive belt (RSD0015A0010) for cracks.
3) Check suction duct to make sure there is no major built up of dust in the ducting.
5.6 RSD Long Term Maintenance
For the long term maintenance for RSD, all the regular checks in section 6.3 should be carried out.
In addition, the following should be checked thoroughly.
1) Remove drive belt (RSD0015A0010) and turn rotor assembly to check condition of bearing.
2) Check for general wear and tears.
3) Check for signs of grease loss from bearing.

10.0 Appendix
Appendix A: Guidelines to using the Heat Gun
Appendix B: Boyd Crusher rebuild guideline
Appendix C: Rocklabs Boyd Crusher Tool Kit
Appendix D: Guidelines to adjusting vibratory feeder

Appendix A – Guidelines to using the Heat Gun
At Rocklabs Ltd., the “Temperature Gun”, or also known as “Heat Gun”, is used as a diagnostic
device to register any increase in bearing temperature. If this instrument is used for this purpose, say
once a week, major bearing failures can be averted.
When there is a noticeable difference in bearing temperature, an increase of 5 - 10°C, from one side
to the other this indicates either the bearing is lacking grease or a bearing failure has occurred or
could be both.
The Crusher should be stopped immediately and the problem will need to be investigated and
rectified. Following is a guideline to using the Heat Gun:
1) Before any temperature is recorded, the machine should have run for at least 3 hours before
carrying out this test. Make sure the Boyd Crusher is switched off completely before performing
the following procedures. To use the Heat Gun, make sure the battery is in and simply press the
trigger to record temperature. Make sure the laser is not pointed at anyone‟s eyes!
2) Hold the heat gun 25-30mm away from the Top Jaw on the right hand side (as shown in picture
1), record the temperature. Repeat the same on the left hand side (as shown in picture 2).
3) Repeat step #2 for the bottom Jaw (as shown in picture 6).
4) The same process applies to the Bearing Housings. There are 4 bearing housings in total, two on
top and two at the bottom. The bearing housings are located next to the crusher frame, so it is
harder to gain access for the heat gun, especially the two bottom bearing housings. To record the
temperature for the bearing housings, you can hold the heat gun as close to the frame as possible
and record the temperature (see picture 3, 4 and 5).
Note: It is very important that the reading is taken exactly the same distance and position in each
situation. This will ensure accurate comparison. A difference of 5°C from one side to the other would
not be a great concern but would need checking the next day to make sure that it does not represent
an upward trend in the temperature.
The average temperature range for the Top Jaw and Top Bearing Housings would be 30 - 40°C at
maximum.
The average temperature range for the Bottom Jaw and Bottom Bearing Housings would be 40 -
60°C at maximum.

Appendix B – Boyd Crusher rebuild guidelines
Rocklabs highly recommend onsite maintenance technician to have a set of Rocklabs tool kit for
stripping and rebuilding the Boyd Crusher unit.
*Please refer to the toolkit list and exploded part drawing for the crusher unit.
Remove crusher unit from the crusher frame
1) Remove the two chip guards.
2) Slacken off two belt tensioners.
3) Remove the top flywheels (located with 4 x 10M capscrews) and mark them “LEFT” and
“RIGHT”.
4) Unlock tab washer on tapered ring block (this locates the large H.T.D. toothed drive pulley to
the top shaft). Use tool #13 to remove nut on the ring block.
5) Tap ring block back to release taper or pull off, using gear puller.
6) Remove ring block and pulley and belt assembly from both sides.
7) At this stage some support is needed for the jaw.
8) There is a M10 tapped hole in the top of the jaw; this will have a M10 grubscrew in it.
9) Fit a M10 lifting eye (tool #8) to the jaw.
10) Some type of gantry will be needed to support the jaw.
11) Remove four capscrews from each side of the bearing housing (BYDS033A0010 and
BYDS033A0020).
12) Using two M10 x 40mm capscrews fit to the threaded holes in the housing. These can be wound
in to help removal of the bearing housing from the crusher side plates make sure these
capscrews are wound in evenly so that the housing remains parallel as it is removed..
13) Once the bearing housing has been removed from the side plate it can be slid off the shaft.
14) Once both housings have been removed (including all the sleeves and “V” rings the shaft can be
drawn out the jaw body).

15) The jaw is now ready for removal. The two spring retainers that are attached to the rear of jaw
and the body of the crusher will need to be removed.
16) Once the jaws are out of the machine, the seals can be removed ready for removal of the
bearings.
17) The jaws need to be set up in a press (hydraulic or mechanical) and using tool #10 a&b the outer
race of the bearing can be pressed out.
18) After both bearings are removed, the jaw cavity will need a thorough clean. Make sure the
bearing area is cleaned of grease and Loctite.
19) The inner race of the bearing can now be removed from the shaft using tool #9. Again make sure
the shaft is thoroughly cleaned.
20) Fill the bearings with Molylube Alloy grease.
21) . Make sure a light coating of high grade Loctite 680 or similar locking agent is used to ensure
the bearing is secure in the jaw.
22) Using tool #5 and setting the jaw up secure in the press, the bearing can be wound gently into
the jaw
23) At this stage the full metal seal (BYDS044A0010) can be fitted using the same fitting tool (#5).
24) The bottom jaw is now lifted back into the frame.
25) The shaft can now be fitted with the inner races of the roller bearing using tool #7. Again make
sure a light covering of Loctite is applied to lock the race to the shaft.
26) The bottom shaft can now be entered into the jaw body.
27) The housings (side bearing) can now be fitted. Refer to the attached drawing for the correct
assembly order.
28) Make sure when assembling the housings that the seals and „V‟ rings are well greased with
Castrol Molylube Alloy grease.
29) The shaft has to be located by tool #4; this locates the shaft on one side ready for fitting of the
housing on the opposite side. The shaft distance has to be the same either side.
30) Refitting of jaw assembly: Sleeve (BYDS044A0010) is located into the jaw seal, hard against
the bearing then the „V‟ ring (9BYDS3011) is fitted over the sleeve against the jaw seal. (Make
sure both surfaces are greased).

31) The slinger ring inner sleeve is fitted next (BYDS044A0050).
32) The next step is to fit the housing on to the shaft. This has been assembled prior to this stage.
33) The side bearing assembly is then slid into the place and drawn up by four capscrews.
34) After one side is finished the locating tool #8 is transferred to the other side and stages 22 to 26
repeated.
35) The above process (steps 22-34) is repeated for the top jaw.
36) The H.T.D. pulleys can now be fitted on the tapered sleeves (top shaft).
37) The top H.T.D. pulley is slid onto the shaft and the timing belt fitted over the top and bottom
pulleys, then the ring block is fitted into the H.T.D. It is important these steps are done in the
correct order, otherwise belt damage may occur.
38) At this stage the machine is retimed as per the instructions in the manual that brings jaws up to
top dead centre. Mark with a vertical arrow and then turn these arrows in toward each other (see
section 5.3).
39) Tension up one belt tensioner, having already locked up one H.T.D. gear wheel.
40) Now tension up the other belt tensioner and then lock up the H.T.D. pulley. This guarantees
both belts have equal tension.
41) All flywheels can now be fitted to their correct sides.
42) Chip guards are refitted.
43) The crusher is fitted back on to the crusher frame.
44) Motor drive belts are refitted, and tensioned.
45) Test runs the machine.
NOTE:
 All seals need to be well greased.
 All capscrews should be located using Loctite # 243.
 The outer race of all bearings before fitting should be 1) Cleaned using Loctite cleaner ODC
degreaser. 2) Primed using Loctite primer # 7471 3) Located using Loctite # 680.
 Torque settings for capscrews
a) M10- 75Nm
b) M8 – 35Nm
c) M5 – 15Nm

 After completion of the crusher rebuild, the unit needs to be fitted back on the frame.
Hardened Rollers
 2 x Nylon bushes (BYDS041A0010), machined for a press fit into the roller, up against
machined shoulder.
 2 x seals (9BYDS2011) are fitted either end of the roller, flush with the end of the roller.
 The cavity between the two bushes is filled one third with Castrol Molylube Alloy grease,
also fill the bush grooves with grease.
 A hardened sleeve (BYDS044A0040) is fitted into each end of the roller (inside seal). The
roller is now ready to be fitted to the frame.
Bearing side housings – 4 per machine

1) Fit 1x 90mm internal circlip (9BYDS3009).
2) Press in 1 x oil seal (full metal seal – 65x90x8) flush with housing
3) Grease bearing (9BYDS3007) with Castrol Molylube Alloy grease, using seal greasing tool.
4) Fit bearing into housing using a smear of 200M Loctite 262
5) Fit second 90mm internal circlip (9BYDS3009).
6) Press in last seal (65x90x8) flush with housing
7) Push in hardened sleeve (BYDS044A0020)
8) Fit inner hardened sleeve (BYDS044A0050) into housing
9) Fit outer hardened sleeve (BYDS044A0030) into housing
NOTE: Smear grease on all surfaces
Timing Boyd Crusher

 Bring front jaw up to top dead centre (using eye or dial test indicator)
 Mark flywheel with a felt pen - a vertical arrow.
 Bring back jaw up to top dead centre and mark the same as the front jaw.
 Turn both jaws 90 degrees towards each other; so arrows are facing each other horizontally.
Fit both timing belts and lock up tensioners. Machine is now timed, ready to run.

Jaws Setting Instructions

Fig: 1
Checking Jaw Gap:
 Check that there is no product / material in the crusher.

 Turn the machine on and open up the product lid.
 Take a length of Aluminum wire or a short piece (20mm) of the same wire or lead / soldering
wire about 3-4 mm in diameter as shown or something similar.
 Place the wire 10-- 20mm into the crushing zone (as shown in Fig 1.) or drop a small piece
into the crusher while it is running.

Fig: 2
Measuring jaw gap:
 Remove the wire from the crusher and using a vernier measuring gauge, (as shown in Fig 2)
measure the flattened end of the wire.
 Repeat this procedure left, right and in the middle of the crusher plates.
 This will give an accurate indication of the jaw gap opening as currently set.
 For opening or closing this gap to the recommended 2mm, undo the locknuts on the front
adjusting bolts and wind in or out the hex head bolts to achieve the desired gap. Tighten lock
nuts; carry out the “PAPER TEST “as described in section 4.13.
 Recheck the jaw gap as described above, repeat process until desired gap is achieved.
 It is very important that the jaw plates do not touch and that the roller is parallel to the jaw.
