OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The HDC-900 is equipped with a momentary contact control. This relieves the operator from having

to hold the "Start" button while the unit cycles.

Sequence of Operation: To operate the crusher: 1) select the appropriate platen configuration (see "Platen configurations"

on p. 4); 2) place a drum inside the crusher; 3) close the door; 4) lock the door latch handle; 5) turn the key switch to the appropriate mode; 6) select “CRUSH” or “COMPACT”; 7) pull out the Emergency Stop button; 8) momentary press the cycle “START” button to activate the crush/compact cycle.

The direction of the platen's travel will be determined by its starting position -- if it is fully raised to the top of the cabinet, the platen will move down to crush a drum; otherwise, the cylinder will raise the platen until it finally is all the way up and in its starting ("home") position, at which point the power unit will turn off. Pressing the cycle start button again will cause the platen to move downward. The operator must hold the button for a few seconds to latch the circuit.

When the crusher is in its "home" position and the cycle start button is pressed, the cylinder pushes the platen down onto (or into) the drum. In order to achieve a short cycle time, both sections of the pump in the power unit drive oil to the cylinder until the cylinder pressure reaches approximately 1000 PSI. At that time, the higher-displacement section recycles oil to the reservoir while the low-displacement, high-pressure section continues to pump oil to the cylinder, i.e. a typical High-Low circuit.

As the platen crushes or compacts the drum to a height of about 6 inches, the cylinder pressure increases until it reaches the set-point of the appropriate pressure switch. The valve shifts to center and a timer activates to control the period of decompression. Once the period ends the directional valve shifts and reverses the direction of oil flow to the cylinder. Reversing the flow of oil raises the platen to its starting, or "home" position. When the cylinder returns the platen all the way to the top of the cabinet, the power unit turns off. At this point, the cabinet door can be opened to remove the drum.

If the unit needs to be stopped at any point during its cycle, the operator can depress the red emergency stop button located on the control panel. This stops the motor and prevents the unit from cycling any further. To return the platen to its starting ("home") position, pull the emergency stop button out to release it and depress the cycle start button again. This will cause the platen to ascend back to the starting position. To cycle the unit again, simply depress the cycle start button.

RESPONSIBILITIES OF OWNERS/USERS It is the responsibility of the owner/user for the following:

1.) Inspected and maintain this product according to the guidelines in this manual. 2.) Any unit not in normal operating condition should immediately be removed from service and remain out-of-service until it is returned to normal operating condition.

Unsafe conditions include, but are not limited to, the following: hydraulic fluid leakage, missing pins, or fasteners, any cracked or deformed structural members, cut or frayed hydraulic or electric lines, and damaged controls or safety devices. All repairs and maintenance must be performed by qualified personnel. 3.) Unit should only be used by authorized personnel. All operators must read and understand all operating procedures and safety guidelines in this manual prior to using the crusher for the first time.

4.) Operator should verify that all safety features function properly before each use.

5.) Any modifications to the unit must be approved in writing by the manufacturer.

Ordering Replacement & Spare Parts

Our company takes pride in using the finest available parts for our equipment. We are not responsible for equipment failure resulting from the use of unapproved replacement parts. To order parts for your equipment, contact Customer Service (see contact information on the cover page). In any correspondence with the factory please include the Serial Number which is included on label 287 (see "Label placement diagram" on p. 11). Use only the part numbers provided in this Owner's Manual. When ordering parts for AC power units, please indicate the motor phase as well as the operation voltage of the equipment.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Read the entire manual before installing the crusher.

Installation requires the following: 1.) A fork truck. 2.) Lag bolts, masonry drill, masonry bit, and wrench for lag bolt, grout, and steel shims. 3.) A power circuit with the specified voltage, including fuses and disconnect or circuit breakers. (See p. 8-9). Reference NEC 70. 4.) Minimize voltage drop by using adequate wire size. Reference NEC 70.

Read all warning labels on the unit (see "Label placement diagram" on p. 11) and confirm that each label shown in the diagram is on the unit.

Move the crusher to its installation location, e.g. with a fork truck by lifting the crusher via the fork tubes on the frame.

Anchor the crusher to the floor before using it for the first time. Connect the power source as shown in the electrical circuit diagram on p. 8 and described in "Electrical system specifications" on p. 9. Cycle the unit a few times; then check the oil level and add more oil, if necessary. (See oil specification on page 5).

LOADING INSTRUCTIONS The Hydraulic Drum Crusher/Compactor (HDC-900) is designed to crush standard, ribbed steel drums of 55 gallon size or smaller. DO NOT use the crusher to compact smooth-walled drums, i.e. drums that lack ribs. The crusher can be used to compact standard, ribbed steel drums that contain soft materials.

When loading the crusher, always apply these suggestions:

1.) Before using the crusher, confirm that the platen is properly installed;

2.) Carefully center the material/item to be crushed under the platen, because an offset or uneven load might damage the cylinder rod;

3.) DO NOT fill drums with scrap metal, paint cans, etc. which will exceed the crushing capacity of the unit and significantly damage the crusher.

NOTE: The crusher is designed to compact standard, ribbed steel drums. However, the crusher might not compact a particular drum. It is also possible that the crusher might sustain minor damage during the compaction process.

PLATEN CONFIGURATIONS Configure the platen to match the application:The compactor platen is shown in blue in the drawing at right; the crusher platen is shown in grey.

To compact materials, remove the crusher platen by sliding it off of the circular compactor platen. The crusher platen is heavy; at least 2 people should work together to remove it. Lower the ram to position the platen at a comfortable level; then press the red emergency stop button. Remove the crusher platen.

To crush drums, install the crusher platen by sliding it unto the compactor platen. Center the crusher attachment on the circular platen as shown in the graphic.

PERIODIC INSPECTIONS & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

ALWAYS EMPTY THE CRUSHER BEFORE INSPECTING OR PERFORMING MAINTENANCE ON IT.

(A) Before each use, inspect the crusher and remove it from service if any of the following issues are observed:

1.) Frayed wires; 2.) Oil leaks; 3.) Pinched or chafed hoses, loose fittings; 4.) Structural deformation of frame; 5.) Unusual noise or binding

(B) Monthly Inspections 1.) Check oil level. Oil should be 2" to 2½" below the top of the tank with the

cylinder in the fully retracted position. Add as necessary.

2.) Check for oil leaks.

3.) Check for worn or damaged hydraulic hoses, electrical wires, and cords. Repair as necessary.

4.) Cycle the crusher and listen for unusual noise.

5.) Make sure all warning labels are readable and in place according to the diagram on p. 12.

6.) Remove dirt and debris.

(C) Yearly Inspection

Change the hydraulic oil at least once per year. However, because the oil should be changed as soon as it darkens, looks milky, or becomes gritty, oil changes might be required more frequently than every 12 months.

After draining the oil from the reservoir, flush the reservoir before refilling it.

If the oil looks milky, water is present and the oil should be changed immediately.

Recommended hydraulic oil: Purity ISO AW-32 hydraulic fluid or equivalent.

Page 7C

Procedures for adjusting hydraulic valves and pressure switches:

1. Install pressure gauges in ports GA and UL GA (see FIGS. 6 & 7 respectively on p. 7D):[NOTE: Hose fittings and adaptors might be necessary to connect the gauges to these ports.]

a. Remove the cap plugs from port GA and install a 3000psi gauge into the port. The port is locatedunder the directional valve; then

b. Remove the cap plug from port UL-GA and install a 3000psi gauge into the port, which is locatedunder the sequence valve (pointed towards the motor).

2. Prepare the pressure switches:a. Using a standard (flathead) screw-driver, loosen the set-screws through the knurled knobs on

both of the pressure switches (see FIG. 6, p. 7B); thenb. Turn the knurled ring of each pressure switch clockwise until they can turn no farther.

3. Turn the adjustment hex flats on the relief valve (See FIG. 7 on p. 7D; labeled RV) out all the way, byturning it counterclockwise.

4. Turn the selector-switch on the control box to “COMPACT”.5. Press the cycle start button on the control box.

a. Hold the button until the motor engages.b. While the motor operates, the hydraulic cylinder extends and the platen descends towards the

bottom of the enclosure.6. Adjust the unload valve:

a. When the cylinder is fully extended and while the motor continues to run, adjust the unload valve(in port SV) until the UL GA pressure gauge reads 1000 psi. Typically, adjustment requiresturning the valve clockwise rather than counterclockwise.

7. Adjust the relief valve:a. With the motor running, observe the reading on the gauge connected to the GA port.b. Begin turning the adjustment hex of the relief-valve (“RV”) clockwise. [Note: As pressure

approaches 1000 psi, you will hear a change in sound as the unload valve--adjusted in step 6--shifts into the unloaded position.]

c. Continue to increase the RV setting until the GA gauge displays 1500 psi.8. Adjust the upper pressure switch (in port PS2):

a. With the power unit now adjusted and operating at 1500 psi pressure, decrease the setting onPS2;

b. Rotate the knurled knob counterclockwise until it clicks. The click indicates that the directionalvalve shifted. Consequently, the cylinder will retract and lift the platen to the raised position andthe power unit will turn off.

9. Adjust the lower pressure switch (PS1):a. Turn the selector switch on the control box to “CRUSH”.b. Press the cycle start button and hold it until the motor engages.c. While the power unit runs,

i. Increase the RV valve setting until the gauge displays 3000 psi.ii. Turn the knurled knob on the pressure switch in port PS1 (lower pressure switch)

counter-clockwise until it clicks. The click indicates that the switch is open.Simultaneously, the valve shifts and the platen will rise.

iii. Turn the knob counter-clockwise an additional 1/8 turn.10. Return the crusher to service:

a. Run the crusher through a complete cycle in each mode (COMPACT and CRUSH) to confirmthat the machine is functioning normally.

b. Remove the pressure gauges and reinstall the cap plugs into ports GA and UL GA.c. Tighten the set screws to fix the positions of the knurled knobs of PS1 and PS2.
