WORK AREA SAFETY

1. Keep the work area as neat and as clean as practical.

2. Keep all warning and caution signs clear and up to date

3. Make certain all electrical equipment is properly grounded.

4. Store hazardous materials in restricted access areas and mark them clearly.

5. Do not smoke or allow smoking near flammable fuels or solvents. Use non-flammable
solvents for cleaning parts and equipment.

6. Make certain enough ventilation is present to run engines safely. Do not start an engine in
an enclosed space without properly vented exhaust. Exhaust fumes from gasoline or diesel
engines can kill!

7. Avoid electrical and static sparks and any open flame while handling, storing, moving or
pouring fuels, electrolytes for batteries, hydraulic fluids or coolants.

8. Check for leaks in tanks or tubing with flashlights or other proper equipment. Never use
an open flame to check for leaks.

9. Know where fire extinguishers and other fire suppression equipment are located.
Learn how to use them.

10. Be alert and wary around any pressurized system: hydraulic or air. High pressure gases
and oils can be very dangerous. Know your equipment and operate it properly.

11. Be alert and watch for pinch points, closing mechanisms, and falling parts when working
on or around any machinery. Keep hands and tools clear.

12. Clean and properly labeled tools are safer tools. Keep your equipment and tools in order.

13. Always use hoisting equipment for heavy loads. Regularly check hooks, cables, shackles
and chains for stretch and wear. Never overload hoists, cranes or other lifting devices.

14. Keep your equipment clean and free of dirt and grease so it can be checked for loose,
cracked or broken parts. Replace defective parts as soon as they are discovered.

15. For questions concerning accumulators, which are pressure-containment vessels,


contact your Terex Powerscreen distributor. Malfunctioning valves or poor maintenance
practices can result in build-up of extremely high hydraulic and/or pneumatic pressures
inside the accumulator.

Powerscreen Int. Dis Ltd., Dungannon, N.Ireland. WWW.POWERSCREEN.COM


2 - Safety Page 11

HYDRAULIC SAFETY

1. Never disable or alter any hydraulic circuit or component without consulting with
Powerscreen 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 hydraulic
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
replacement 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.

2 - Safety Page 12

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.


Damaged 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.

6.6.4 Programming a New Tipping Grid Remote Control

Each remote control transmitter has a unique operating code. If a remote control or
receiver box is replaced then the receiver box has to be programmed to recognize
the new remote control transmitter.
If a remote control transmitter is taken from one machine or system and used to
operate another system, the original receiver box should be disabled by removing
the 2 Amp fuse on the printed circuit board (G).
Label the receiver with instructions to reprogram it before putting it back into
service into service. Otherwise the situation could arise that on remote control
could operate two different systems.

(G) 2 Amp
Fuse

The same remote control should not be used to operate more than
one system. Ensure each tipping grid has its own remote control

6.6.6 Changing the Tipping Grid Remote Control Batteries


The tipping grid remote control battery life depends on its frequency of use. Low
batteries are indicated when the LED (A) on the remote control goes dim when a
button is pressed and/or the functions do not operate.
When this happens the batteries should be replaced immediately. The batteries
consist of 2 x 1.5 volt AAA alkaline batteries located in the rear of the remote control.
NOTICE
Before replacing transmitter batteries turn off the receiver box by
disconnecting its power supply

1 Observe all safety warnings


2 Ensure machine is switched off, tagged out and locked out.
3 Undo the 3mm screw securing the battery compartment cover at the rear of
the remote control
4 To remove the cover, raise the end adjustment to the belt clip and swing the
cover and lift off.
5 Remove the exhausted batteries
6 Fit 2 new AAA size alkaline batteries taking special care to ensure the battery
polarity symbols align with the corresponding symbols embossed to the base
of the battery compartment. Incorrect polarity may damage the transmitter.
Do not mix old and new batteries
7 Refit the cover by engaging the small catches at the bottom edge of the cover
with the slots on the lower edge of the battery compartment and then fold the
cover towards the belt clip.

7 - Capacity & Tonnage Calculation Page 3

7.1 Calculating Capacity

Often it is desirable to know the weight of material being conveyed. This can be estimated
simply by using the formulae below.

7.1.1 Calculating Tonnage

Output per time unit = Belt Speed x Weight of material


Length of belt the material lies on

Example (Imperial)

Take
Belt speed 300ft/min
Weight of material on 3ft of belt 66.3 lbs

Also
60 minutes in 1 hour
2240 pounds (lbs) in 1 ton

Therefore

Tonnage per hour = 300 x 60 x 66.3 = 1,193,400 = 117.5 Tons per hour
3 x 2240 6,720

Example (metric)

Take belt speed 92 metre/min


Weight of material on 1 metre of belt 30 kg

Also
60 minutes in 1 hour
1000 kg in 1 tonne

Therefore

Tonnage per hour = 92 x 60 x 30 = 165600 = 165.6 Tonnes per hour


1000 1000

Powerscreen Int. Dis Ltd. Dungannon, N.Ireland. WWW.POWERSCREEN.COM


7 - Capacity & Tonnage Calculation Page 4

7.1 Calculating Capacity (continued)

7.1.2 Estimating Tonnage

A value for tonnage can be calculated by timing the length of time it takes a certain weight
of material to go up the conveyor belt or over the screen.

Example
A hopper containing 6 tonnes of material takes 2 1/2 minutes to empty.

Then

6 tonnes in 2 1/2 minutes

12 tonnes in 5 minutes
Therefore
Output = 144 Tonnes per hour

7.1.3 Calculating volume of stockpile

The formula for a conical stockpile of any base area is:

1 (Cross Sectional Area) x (Perpendicular Height)


3

For a stockpile with a circular base area the formula will be

1 x (π) x (R2) x (H)

THE TIPPING GRID

The tipping grid is an optional piece of equipment, which is used to remove pieces of
material too large to be effectively screened. In the case of the tipping grid material is
fed on top of the tipping grid, material smaller than 102 mm (4“), which is the standard
aperture size, will tend to fall between the bars of the tipping grid under the force of
gravity. The grid is angled to allow the oversized material to fall off the tipping grid
where it can typically be reprocessed. On occasions material will tend to sit on top
of the reject bars, to remove this material the grid can tip.

10.2.1.2 Remote Control Reject Tipping Grid

The hydraulically operated reject grid can be raised in the following way:

Operating the radio transmitter (RT), by pointing it in the direction of the radio receiver
(RR) fitted above the power unit.

The reject grid will lower automatically.

10.2.1.3 THE VIBRATING GRID

The Vibrating grid is designed for the same purpose as the tipping grid, however the
efficiency of the system increases when a vibrating grid is used. Whereas the tipping
grid uses gravity alone to seperate the oversized from the processable material. The
vibrating grid uses vibration as well. The effect of this is too ensure that little or no
material rests on top of the reject bars at any time.

11.4 TRACKS TROUBLESHOOTING

(i)One Track not operating or operating slower than the other


- Check that the same size of Motors have been fitted to both Tracks.
- Check if the brake is releasing.

Fit a pressure clock to the Brake Hose. A pressure of at least 285 PSI / 20 bar is
required to release the brakes.

If the correct pressure is not going to the Brake hose it is likely to be a problem with
the Motion Control Block possibly contamination. If a Load Control Valve should
jam due to oil-entrained debris then the likelihood is that it will not open and will not
allow the motor to turn in one direction.
This will cause the Host Machine to ‘crab’ in one direction. Swapping the valves
over from one Track to the other will usually transfer the problem to the opposite
direction.

Similarly, if the Brake Pressure Regulator Valve is jammed due to debris the motor
will stop turning on one side. Swap the Pressure Regulator from the opposite block
to see if the problem is in the Brake Valve.

Try removing the Valves and cleaning them thoroughly taking care not to damage the
external cavity seals.
Also check the ports in the Block for dirt etc. If this does not work replace the valves
with new ones. Always cross-reference the part numbers on the new valves with the
old valve, before fitting. It is critical that the correct Valves are fitted. Valves should
never be dismantled as no internal seals or parts are available.

If the valves continue to jam then the oil in the hydraulic system is not being filtered
to the required level of cleanliness.

- If the correct pressure is going to the Brake Hose then the Motor, Brake or Brake
Piston Seals may be damaged.

- To check for a Motor fault swap over the Motors on the two Tracks. If the fault is in
the Motor, replace with a new Motor.
- To check for a faulty Brake remove the Motor and look into the Gearbox for heat
discolouration and/or fragments of Brake disc. If the fault is in the Brakes the
complete Gearbox will have to be replaced.
-To check for faulty Brake Piston seals remove the Motor. If there is Hydraulic oil
in the Gearbox entrance then the seals are damaged. While it may be possible to
replace these seals on-site we strongly recommended that a replacement Gearbox
is fitted and an overhaul of the damaged Gearbox be carried out off-site.

12.1 safety
Bogie safety

Please ensure all safety precautions and instructions are adhered to when installing,
operating and/or performing maintenance on the axle system.

Under no circumstances are tracked machines allowed to be


transported across or on public roads. Appropriate haulage equip-
ment must be used

Explosive seperation of tyre and rim parts can cause serious injury
or death

Check wheels for low pressure, cuts, bubbles, damaged rims or


missing lug bolts and nuts

Always maintain the correct tyre pressure. Do not inflate the


tyres above the recommended pressure. Use a clip-on chuck and
extension hose long enough to allow you to stand to one side
and not in front of or over the tyre assembly. Use a safety cage if
available

Protective equipment
Always wear protective clothing and footwear as required by job
conditions when working around this product.
Wear protective glasses when in risk of slintering debris.

Unauthorised modifications
It is important not to carry out modifications to the axle system
which could compromise proper operation and safety.
Powerscreen Intl Ltd are not responsible for any injury or damage
caused by unautorised modifications.

Powerscreen Int. Dis Ltd. Dungannon, N.Ireland. WWW.POWERSCREEN.COM


13 - Manoeuvring Plant Page 4

12.2 TRACK OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

When traveling up a gradient, the tracks should be driven forward (i.e idlers first,
drive sprocket to the rear). When traveling down a gradient, tracks should be driven
sprocket first.

ALWAYS:-
Park the machine on flat, level ground. If necessary to park the machine on a
gradient, the tracks should be solidly blocked.

Ensure the terrain the machine is working on is firm enough to adequately support
the machine.

Ensure the machine is tracked at least 10m in either direction on a daily basis, to
minimize risk of track chain seizure.

Ensure the track systems are free from debris before moving the machine.

Ensure the tracks are not frozen to the ground before moving the machine.

NEVER:-
Attempt to track the machine if there is any build up of material around the tracks
and drive sprockets.

Attempt to track the machine if the tracks are frozen to the ground.

Push or tow the machine when unable to free itself.

Failure to observe the above precautions could result in danger


to persons and damage to the track systems and may also
invalidate the warranty.

Powerscreen Int. Dis Ltd. Dungannon, N.Ireland. WWW.POWERSCREEN.COM


13 - Manoeuvring Plant Page 5

12.3 Undercarriage

Chieftain machinery can be moved one of two different ways depending on the type
of machine,

1 Bogie
2 Tracks

Each type of undercarriage must be properly maintained to ensure a safe, effective


working environment. Track machines are designed for ease of movement around
the site and should not be used on public roads. Haulage equipment, such as a
low loader or a roll in bogie, should be used for this purpose. Non track machines
should be transported using the appropriate haulage equipment.

12.4 Manoeuvring - General


• Before manoeuvring the plant, ensure the feed hopper and screen are empty,
and that all materials have run off the conveyors. STOP the feeder, sreenuint and
product conveyors.

• The safety warning horn/siren sounds continuously whilst the plant is being
manoeuvred.

• Make sure that you do not manoeuvre the plant on a gradient steeper than 30
degrees (moving fore or aft), damage may occur to the engine and/or plant.

• Avoid manoeuvring the plant over extremely uneven ground or damage may
occur. Due to the limited ground clearance, avoid running over isolated objects
between the tracks.

• Initial start up in cold weather may result in a tendency to steer to the right
whilst tracking fast forward due to the hydraulic oil being cold. Run the plant for
approx. 10 minutes with the conveyor and feeder running prior to manoeuvring
the plant.

12.5 Manual Tracking Doglead

The doglead is only used to operate the tracks. It performs no other operation.
The remote control consists of a direct lead and a handset

NOTICE
To operate the machine via the Doglead, firstly retrieve the remote control unit.
Attach the remote control unit cable to the socket at the rear of the machine.

One option available on the tracked Chieftain is the radio controlled tracking,
As with all other standard track machines a doglead is also fitted, these
models are fitted with an automatic chaneover, thus no changeover switch will
be fitted.
In this case the start up procedure is the same as for a machine which is not
fitted with a radio tracking option. That is to simply connect doglead, start
engine position appropriate levers and than press the tracks on/off button on
the doglead to initiate tracking after the 7 secomd delay finishes.

1 Observe all safety warnings


2 Ensure that the Doglead is connected correctly to the machine (S) and that
the doglead machine stop (B) is not pressed.

If the machine stop (B) is pressed do not reset it until tracks and surrounding
area have been checked and it is safe to move the machine. When the
machine stop button has been pressed the engine will cut out and will need to
be started after reseting the machine stop button. The doglead machine stop
(B) can be reset by twisting it clockwise one quarter turn.

3 Start the machine


4 Ensure that all levers on the control bank are set to the tracking position.
That is, the track levers are both in the down position all other levers should
be in the neutral position.

The machine will not stop if the doglead is removed.

the large red button ( machine stop button ) on the


doglead cannot be referred to as an emergency
stop.
Should an emergency arise and the doglead is not
connected to the machine, pressing the large red
button will not stop the machine.

Should an emergency arise press an emergency stop


on the machine itself.

15.1.2 SAFETY BEFORE AND DURING OPERATION

Only qualified and trained personnel should attempt to operate this machinery.

1. Read and understand the Operators Manual before you start the machine.
Study the DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION and IMPORTANT safety signs on your machine.
2. Check your machine and have all systems in good operational condition.
- Check for broken, missing or damaged parts. Replace and make necessary repairs.
- Ensure all safety guards and emergency stops are fitted and in working order.
- See ‘Daily Maintenance’ for more detailed checklist before start-up.
3. Before starting, walk completely around the machine. Make sure no one is under it, on it
or close to it. Let other workmen and bystanders know you are starting up and do not start
until everyone is clear of the machine.
4. During operation, do not climb onto, over or under moving conveyor belts and rollers.
Always use ladders, steps and walkways when mounting and dismounting.
5. Hole alignment on mechanical supports must be checked and secured with pins provided
and in accordance with safety signs.
6. Never check the tension of ‘V’ belts, drive chains and conveyors when machine is
running.
7. Never work or stand beneath machinery or attachments as it is raised or lowered.
8. Never work or stand beneath machinery as they are being loaded with and/or discharging
material.
9. Follow safe operating practices. Operate the machine controls smoothly. Avoid sudden
stops, starts or changes in direction.
10. Only use emergency stop buttons or emergency stop lines (if fitted) in emergency
situations or during safety drills.
11. After each day’s operation, always run the machine dry; never leave material in the
beltfeeder on conveyor belts or screenbox. Starting a machine with a full load will cause
strain problems in your machine.

When carrying out maintenance or adjustment the following


procedure must be followed

1 Disengage each machine component (e.g conveyors etc) using the control levers as
described in the following pages.

Turning all machine components at once causes a pressure spike in the hydraulic
circuit and a voltage spike in the electrical circuit both of which are detrimental to the
machine. A slight pause between disengaging each component can prevent this spike
taking place.

Turn components off in the order

23.2 - Electrical safety instructions

Switch off the machine immediately if trouble occurs in the electrical system.

Use only genuine fuses with the specified current rating.

When working with the machine/plant, maintain a safe distance from overhead electric lines.
If work is to be carried out close to overhead lines the working equipment must be kept well
away from them.

Unless otherwise stated the power supply to parts of machines and plants on which inspec-
tion, maintenance or repair work is to be carried out must be cut off.

Before starting any work around electrical components (after having cut off the power
supply), check the de-energized parts for the presence of power and any ground or short-
circuits. This is in addition to insulating live parts and elements.
If your machine comes into contact with a livewire:
- Warn others against approaching and touching the machine
- Ensure the live wire is de-energized

The electrical equipment of the machine is to be inspected and checked at regular intervals.
Defects such as loose connections or scorched or otherwise damaged cables must be
rectified immediately

Necessary work on live parts and elements must be carried out in the presence of a
second person, who can cut off the power supply in case of danger by actuating one of the
emergency stops or the main power switch on the control panel
Secure the area with a red and white chain and a warning sign.

25.1 - Air Filtration

The air required to run the engine is inducted into the engine after passing through a
filtration system. As air passes into the breather system it is initially met by the first
filter known as the precleaner. This removes the heaviest of the dust,some of which
escapes through a vent at the bottom or at the back of the precleaner.

The air than passes through the outer filter which removes more dust and than final-
ly the air passes through the inner air filter. This filtration system removes virtually
all the dust being inducted into engine.
