1. INTRODUCTION
This manual contains instructions for operation and maintenance of the MINYU Jaw Crusher
MS4230.
This manual contains all the information you need for an adequate operation and maintenance
of the crusher, which leads to an optimal performance and higher efficiency of the machine, to
a maximum service life of wear parts and possible minimum maintenance expenses.
This translation is based on the Chinese version of the instruction manual, the latest Chinese
edition prevails.
2. CONSTRUCTION
2.1. GENERAL CONSTRUCTION SPECIFICATIONS
The crushing performance depends on the type of the material to be crushed. The different
capacities provided here in this manual are based on the following conditions:
1. The material to be crushed which shall be ordinary ore having apparent specific
gravity of about 1.6 t/m3.
2. The feeding shall be continuous and uninterrupted.
3. The feeding material shall be dry and small enough to be easily fed into the crusher.
The maximum material size shall not be larger than 80% of the size of the in-feed
opening.
4. Refer to Table No.1 for capacities and discharge opening settings.
Table 1 Capacities & Settings (All parameters for reference only & subject to change without notice.)
Moving the Pitman Arm forward can reduce the size of the discharge opening. Never make
the discharge opening smaller than the value listed in Table No.1. If the clearance opening is
too small, it increases the load on the Jaw Crusher and can damage it.

The Jaw Crusher may be shipped as a complete unit or disassembled into component parts,
depending on the conditions in the working site or the weight of the component parts. Inspect
the machine when it is delivered. Check that all items on the packing list arrived undamaged.
If items are missing or damaged such that they cannot easily be repaired at the installation
site, please inform “MINYU MACHINERY CORP.” immediately.
4.2. CLEANING
Some parts of the Jaw Crusher, such as fit surfaces of bearings, Main Shaft, Toggle Seat, and
machined faces of mounting surfaces may be coated with black varnish or other rust
preventives. Wash these parts completely with solvent and apply a thin coating of oil. If the
rust preventives are difficult to remove, use warmed solvent and wipe off by hand. DO NOT
use sharp-edged tools to remove the coating as this may damage the Jaw Crusher part. If the
parts are to be temporarily stored, put them in a dry area and cover to prevent accumulation of
dust.
4.3. TRANSPORT
Carefully unpack and transport the Jaw Crusher or component parts to the erecting
foundation, taking care that the parts do not touch each other to cause damage. Lift the Jaw
Crusher using a cable attached to the Jaw Crusher’s lifting holes or lifting hooks. DO NOT
attach the cable to the Main Shaft as this will damage the assembly.
Spare sufficient space around the Jaw Crusher to perform the installation’s tasks. Install an
electric hoist or other lifting device above the Jaw Crusher to facilitate future maintenance
operations. Refer to Table No.3 for approximate erection weights.
All parameters for reference only & subject to change without notice.
Align and adjust the centers of the Motor Drive (9091) and the Jaw Crusher Drive (3111).
When determining the center-to-center distance of the Motor to the Jaw Crusher, remember
that the V-Belts elongate during the operation of the Jaw crusher. Provisions for installation
and removal of the V-Belts shall therefore be made. Provisions should be provided for
take-up of the elongated or stretched belts. Keeping the V-Belts at the proper tension can
prolong their life.

Table 5 Center Distance Allowance for Classical Belt Installation and Take-Up.
• Placing Belts on Sheaves: Shorten the center distance of the drive until the V-Belts
can be put on the sheaves without forcing. Forcing the V-Belts can cause internal
injury to the V-Belts.
• Belt Selection: For maximum service, replace V-Belt drives with a complete new
matched set of belts.
NEVER employ a used V-Belt as a replacement for a V-Belt in a set. Used V-Belts, normally,
are worn in cross-section and are stretched. A new V-Belt so applied with used V-Belts will
ride higher in the groove, travel faster and operate at a much higher tension than the used
V-Belts and the cord center may be ruptured, allowing the new V-Belt to elongate. Shortly
after this occurs, the new V-Belt will cease to accept its full share of the load, leaving the
drive under V-Belted. Thus, the new V-Belt is ruined. V-Belts from different manufactures
should not be mixed for the same reasons.
• After the proper operating tension has been applied to the V-Belts, double-check the
following: (1) parallel position of the sheave shafts and (2) correct alignment of
sheave grooves.
• V-Belt tension can also be tested with a V-Belt tension tester that is available from
your local power transmission dealer. This convenient tool facilitates easy checking
of V-Belt tension on drives having two or more belts. Scales are provided for reading
both the required force and the distance of belt deflection which are used in properly
tensioning V-Belts.
If the Jaw Crusher was delivered in several component parts, follow the procedures
mentioned below in this order:
1. Mount the Main Frame.
2. Install the Fixed Jaw Die Plate and the Cheek Plates.
3. Install the Taper Blocks, the Hydraulic Cylinder, etc.
4. Install the Main Shaft with Main Bearings, Bearing Covers, and Pitman Arm.
5. Install the Moveable Jaw Die Plate, Moveable Jaw Die Plate Wedge, and Pitman Arm
Protection Plate.
6. Install the Toggle Plate, Tension Rods, etc.
7. Install the Driven V-Belt Sheave Flywheel and the Flywheel to the Main Shaft.
8. Install the Hydraulic Power Unit, which provides power for the Hydraulic Cylinder
that adjusts the size of the discharge opening.
If the Jaw Crusher was delivered as a complete unit, install it by carefully putting it on the
base plates and tightening the nuts on the anchor bolts.
The Jaw Crusher can be damaged by material suddenly or abruptly being dropped into the
machine. To prevent such damage, use a feeding unit such as a Vibrating Grizzly Feeder to
charge the Jaw Crusher. Using a feeding unit will also prevent over-feeding the Jaw Crusher.
If the Jaw Crusher stops suddenly, remove the material remaining in the crushing
chamber before attempting to re-start the machine. Use an electric hoist and an operator
platform above the Jaw Crusher to facilitate such cleaning work.
Crushed material can clog the discharge chute if there is insufficient space beneath the
discharge opening and material removal device. When clogged, the lower edge of the Pitman
Arm and the Tension Rods rub against the crushed material and can be damaged. Install an
inspection door on the discharge chute and periodically inspect the chute for clogs.
7. LUBRICATION
7.1. LUBRICATION SPECIFICATIONS
Table No.6 below identifies certain assemblies of the Jaw Crusher which need to be
lubricated with the recommended appropriate lubricants.

Lubricate the Main Bearings by opening the breathing hole in the Main Bearing Cap and pour
the oil in to the appropriate level. DO NOT OVERFILL. Use the inspection rod (dip stick) to
check the oil level. See Figure No.12.
Lubricate the Pitman Arm Bearings by opening the breathing hole on the top of the Pitman
Arm and fill with oil up to 6 mm on the round Oil Sight Glass attached to the Pitman Arm
(half of oil sight glass). See Figure No.13. DO NOT OVERFILL.

After 100 hours of initial load operation, replace the lubrication oil for the Main Bearings and
Pitman Arm Bearings. After 300 hours of load operation, replace the lubrication oil for the
Main Bearings and Pitman Arm Bearings again. Thereafter, replace the oil for the Main
Bearings and Pitman Arm Bearings every 500 hours. Regularly inspect the lubrication oil for
changes in color, viscosity and for contamination by dirt or other particles. Replace
contaminated lubrication oil immediately. See Table No.7 for Main Bearing and Pitman Arm
lubrication oil capacities.
8. TEST RUN
8.1. INSPECTION PRIOR TO NO-LOAD OPERATION
Turn the motor on. CHECK THE DIRECTION OF THE ROTATION. The top of the
flywheels should rotate toward the feed. Counter-rotation will significantly reduce the
crushing capacity of the Jaw Crusher and will rapidly wear down the Fixed Jaw Die Plate and
the Moveable Jaw Die Plate.
When the motor is running at full speed, check the temperature of each bearing. If there is any
abnormality, stop the motor immediately. CHECK THE LUBRICATION OIL LEVEL.
Run the Jaw Crusher for about three hours. Turn off the Jaw Crusher and time how long it
takes for the Jaw Crusher to stop moving and the motor to stop rotating completely. Check all
nuts and bolts for loosening. When the Jaw Crusher is stopped, the counterweight on the
V-Belt driven sheave flywheel and the flywheel should be 15 degrees inclined toward the
backside. If the Jaw Crusher is mounted at 8 degrees, the flywheel counterweights should be
approximately 23 degrees inclined toward the backside.
Check the size of the discharge opening. The appropriate size for each type of Jaw Crusher is
shown in Table No. 1. For Type “MS” Jaw Crushers, the size refers to the opening created
when the Moveable Jaw Die Plate mounted on the Pitman Arm is as far from the Fixed Jaw
Die Plate as possible. NEVER make the discharge opening smaller than the recommended
size.
The maximum size of material to be crushed can be up to 80% of the size of the feed opening.
DO NOT feed larger material.
DO NOT begin full load operation immediately. Rather, gradually increase the quantity of
material feed to 50% or 60% of full load capacity for starting initial loaded operation.
Monitor the temperature of each bearing, vibration of parts, ampere value of the motor, etc.
Evenly distribute the material to be crushed. Unevenly distributed material results in lower
crushing capacity and localized abrasion which shortens the life of the Jaw Die Plates.
Deliver material to the Jaw Crusher continuously and evenly. Prevent large stones from
dropping directly onto the Pitman Arm. If allowed to scatter, smaller stones can damage
components of the Jaw Crusher, get caught in the V-Belt drive, endanger the operator, etc.
After 7 or 8 hours of loaded operation, stop the motor, inspect and tighten loosened nuts and
bolts, especially the bolts securing the Jaw Die Plates, Protection Plates, Cheek Plates and the
Main Frame Anchor Bolts.
Measure the size of the discharge opening at start-up and keep a record. These measurements
will help determine tonnage of material processed and the degree of wear on the Jaw Die
Plates.
One way to measure the size of the discharge opening is to insert a simple gauge, like the one
pictured in Figure No.14, into the top of the Jaw Crusher. Measure the clearance between the
Fixed Jaw Die Plates and Moveable Jaw Die Plates at the top, bottom and middle points of the
Jaw Die tooth configuration. The middle point is the important one.
Another way of measuring the discharge opening is to insert a wooden gauge with a shank
into the top of the Jaw Crusher. Slowly turn the V-Belt driven sheave to enlarge the discharge
opening. The gauge will sink deeper into the Jaw Crusher. When completely open, mark the
wood gauge at the point corresponding to the discharge opening. Remove the gauge and
measure the distance between the marked points. Measure the height of the tooth (the distance
between the top and bottom of tooth). See Figure No.15.
When the Jaw Crusher is operating, the Toggle Plate is held tightly between the Toggle Seat
in the Pitman Arm and the Toggle Seat in the Toggle Block by compression. This force is
created by compressing the Tension Rod Spring. Table No.8 shows the recommended length
of the Tension Rod Spring for each size of Jaw Crusher. The Tension Rod Spring should be
longer during initial operation. If an abnormal sound comes from the Toggle Plate, tighten the
Tension Rod Spring by tightening the Tension Rod Spring Adjusting Nut. See Figure No.16.

To reduce the size of the discharge opening by hydraulic power system, do the following:
1. Loosen the Tension Rod Spring Nut on the Tension Rod by 20 to 25mm.
2. Tighten the Taper Block Adjustment Nut by 5mm. Refer to Figure No. 17.
3. Tightening the Taper Block Adjustment Nut will force the Taper Block inward 5mm.
This action loosens the fit of the Taper Blocks and Toggle Block.
4. Start the Hydraulic Power Unit. Maintain oil pressure at 17.2Mpa (2500 PSI).
5. Use the hydraulic control valve to push the Hydraulic Cylinder forward toward the
Pitman Arm by 20 to 25mm. Toggle Block and Pitman Arm will move forward to make the
discharge opening smaller. The Tension Rod Spring is compressed. The decrease in the
length of the Tension Rod Spring equals the decrease in the size of the discharge opening.
6. When the discharge opening reaches the desired size, move the hydraulic control
valve lever to the neutral position.
7. Insert Shim Plates into the opening created between the Toggle Block and the rear
section of the Main Frame. The thickness of the Shim Plates will equal the decrease in size of
the discharge opening.
8. Use the hydraulic control valve to pull the Hydraulic Cylinder back. Fit the Toggle
Block and Shim Plates tightly to the rear section of the Main Frame. Then put the control
valve lever in the neutral position.
9. Measure the discharge opening with a simple gauge. Refer to Figure No. 14 and
Figure No. 15.
10. Loosen the Taper Block Adjusting Nut. This action will allow the Taper Block to
move to its fixed position. Fasten the Tension Rod Jam Nut tightly. If the Taper Block is
difficult to move, rotate the Main Shaft Flywheel several times by hand.
11. Adjust the Tension Rod Adjustment Nut to make the Tension Rod Spring length
match the recommended length in Table No. 8.
To increase the size of the discharge opening by hydraulic power system, do the following:
1. Loosen the Tension Rod Adjustment Nut by 20 to 25mm. This action will elongate
the Tension Rod Spring.
2. Loosen the Taper Block Adjusting Nut by 5mm. Refer to Figure No. 17.
3. Loosening the Taper Block Adjusting Nut will force the Taper Block inward 5mm.
This action loosens the fit of the Taper Blocks and Toggle Block.
4. Start the Hydraulic Power Unit. Maintain oil pressure at 17.2Mpa (2500 PSI).
5. Use the hydraulic control valve to push the Hydraulic Cylinder forward toward the
Pitman Arm. Move the Pitman Arm forward enough to relax the force on the Shim Plates and
Toggle Block.
6. Remove Shim Plates. The thickness of the Shim Plates will equal the desired increase
in the size of the discharge opening.
7. Use the hydraulic control valve to pull the Hydraulic Cylinder back. Fit the Toggle
Block and Shim Plates tightly to the rear section of the Main Frame. Then move the hydraulic
control valve lever to the neutral position.
8. Adjust the Taper Block Adjusting Nut. This action will allow the Taper Block to
move to its fixed position. Fasten the Tension Rod Jam Nut tightly.
9. Adjust the Tension Rod Adjustment Nut to make the Tension Rod Spring length
match the length recommended in Table No. 8.
Steel Shim Plates are delivered with the Jaw Crusher. These Shim Plates vary in thickness
from 6 to 25 mm. To facilitate the adjusting procedure, make an exchange table of the Shim
Plates prior to use.
After adjusting the size of the discharge opening, check that the Toggle Block, Shim Plates,
rear portion of the Main Frame and Taper Blocks fit tightly.
Never operate the hydraulic control valve that controls the Hydraulic Adjustment Cylinder
while the Jaw Crusher is operating.
10. MAINTENANCE
10.1. DAILY INSPECTION
In addition, check:
1. V-Belt tension.
2. Ampere readings of the motor during no-load and loaded operation.
3. Uniformity of material feed.
4. Counterweight location on the Flywheel and V-Belt driven sheave should be set at 15
degree inclined toward the backside of the Jaw Crusher when stopped. This
requirement only applies to stationary mounted Jaw Crushers. Chassis mounted Jaw
Crushers are mounted at an 8 degree angle. Take this angle into account when
checking counterweight location on the flywheels (23 degree inclined).
NOTA BENE: Inspecting the Spherical Roller Bearings requires the Main Shaft
Assembly to be disassembled. Therefore, before disassembling the Main Shaft
Assembly, visually inspect the Bearings. Excessive Bearing Heat or abnormal
noise coming from the Bearings would be a good reason. Preventative
maintenance would be another reason.
2. After 100-200 hours of operation, replace the lubrication oil in the Main Bearings and
Pitman Arm Bearings by draining the used oil out of the drain ports. Then fill with
solvent and turn the Jaw Crusher Main Shaft several revolutions by hand. Drain out
the solvent and fill with new lubrication oil. Change oil after 500 hours from then on,
unless extreme dirty conditions exist.
3. Grease fittings around each Labyrinth Collar Seal. If the Spherical Roller Bearings
have been washed and cleaned, the Labyrinth Collar Seals are to be washed and
repacked with fresh grease.
4. Check the Toggle Plate and Toggle Seats for wear. Clean area around Toggle Plate
and Toggle Seats.
5. Measure the wear of the Jaw Die Plates and the Cheek Plates. If necessary, turn the
Jaw Die Plates over or replace.
