Mobile Jaw Crusher needs regular care to prevent breakage and prolong service life: monitor the condition of jaw plates, clean the housing, check the lubrication, fastening units, hydraulics and electrics. Scheduled diagnostics-every 100-150 hours (80 hours with intensive work), unscheduled-with noise, vibration or a drop in performance.
As a piece of equipment, a mobile jaw crusher requires regular maintenance and timely inspections to prevent sudden breakdowns and extend its service life; all that is required is to follow simple maintenance guidelines and carry out checks according to the established schedule.
First and foremost, it is important to monitor the condition of the jaw plates, as they are the main working components and any wear and tear on them directly affects the quality of the crushing process. It is also necessary to regularly clean the housing of any material residue and check the lubrication levels of all moving parts to prevent friction and overheating of the components.
Routine inspections should be carried out every 100–150 hours of operation; in the case of intensive use at large sites, this interval is reduced to 80 hours. An unscheduled inspection is required if unusual noises or vibrations occur, or if the unit’s performance declines.
It is necessary to regularly check the fastenings of all assemblies and connections, as vibration during operation gradually loosens bolts and nuts; it is also advisable to monitor the condition of the hydraulic system and electrical components to minimise the risk of accidents whilst the crusher is in operation.
