Page 10: Hydraulic Horsepower Requirements
USER MANUAL 2.2 Hydraulic Horsepower Requirements If the carrier cannot provide the required flow, pressure and/or the required hydraulic horsepower then the screening bucket’s maximum efficiency will not be achieved. Carrier flow, pressure and horsepower requirements can be obtained from the manufacturer or distributor of the carrier. If the carried hydraulic capacity is unknown then a flow test will have to be carried out by a suitably competent person. -
Page 11: Flow Rates Of Excavators
In all cases the flow rate must not exceed maximum recommended. 2.6 Hydraulic Control If the REMU bucket is being installed on a carrier that is fitted with a PILOT OPERATED hydraulic system, particular care is to be taken in installing flow control/checks in the screening bucket’s control circuit to... -
Page 12: Hydraulic Pressure Settings
2.8 Connection to Carrier In the case of excavators it should be noted that the manufacturer recommends that the REMU Screening Bucket be installed in a "Face Shovel" application. The installation in a face shovel application will increase efficiency by reducing cycle times and reducing excessive strain that can be exerted on the unit. -
Page 13: Installation Check List
− if the carrier is pilot controlled, install flow control checks in the screening bucket’s control system to reduce changeover shocks − check and record REMU circuit system flow and pressure at the appropriate place on the service report − in the case of excavator unit, ensure that the maximum flow rate will not be exceeded under the following conditions: 1. -
Page 14: Operation
USER MANUAL 3. OPERATION 3.1 Overview It should be fully understood that while the REMU screening bucket has been applied successfully in a number of applications, the REMU screening bucket is not the answer to all screening problems. Some materials are not as free flowing due to the moisture content or geological characteristics, and take a considerably longer time to process. -
Page 15: Operation Efficiency
USER MANUAL 3.3 Operation Efficiency − always allow the hydraulic oil to warm up for approximately five minutes, as cold hydraulic oil will not allow the components to operate correctly − It is important for optimum performance that the carrier unit operates at enough engine R.P.M. -
Page 16: Screening Process
USER MANUAL 3.7 Screening Process Operate bucket in a cyclic manner by operating bucket rotors in one direction for five seconds. Then reverse the rotors in the other direction for five seconds. Repeat this procedure until the majority of the primary product is no longer expelled from the unit. -
Page 17: Cleaning The Remu Bucket
REMU has developed a cleaning attachment suitable for cleaning high plasticity material from the rotor assemblies. If the material being processed cannot be cleaned or builds up very quickly REMU suggests that the cleaning attachment should be fitted to clean the unit to improve screening production of high moisture material. -
Page 18: Converting The Excavator Bucket To The Crush/Screening Configuration
USER MANUAL 3.14 Converting the Excavator Bucket to the Crush/Screening Configuration The excavator screening buckets can be adjusted so that the unit can crush "soft" material. The types of material that can be crushed are gypsum, bark, mulch, foundry sand, sand stone, mud stone and a variety of other materials. -
Page 19: Converting The Bucket From Crushing To Screening Configuration
The screening size can be changed by replacing the main blades and counter blades. 3.18 Changing the Rotors Contact technicalsupport@remu.fi 3.19 Changing of Side Rakes 1. Ensure that the replacement rakes are correct for the model and the size of product required before proceeding 2. - Page 20 Contact the dealer or manufacturer for any adjustment procedures not covered in this operator’s manual. 4.2 REMU Parts Always use genuine REMU products for repair and maintenance. Spare parts are available from your nearest distributor or directly available from REMU.
- Page 21 USER MANUAL 4.3 Contaminated Products Always dispose of contaminated products as "industrial waste" in accordance with Government Regulations. 4.4 Maintenance Safety Wear suitable clothing. Use the correct tools. Use sufficient care while using cleaning fluids. Use safety tags or isolate carrier so it cannot be started. Do not attempt to inspect or touch the rotors or carry out preventative maintenance while the carrier engine is running and if the screening bucket is not on the ground.

- Page 23 USER MANUAL Please note: Lubricate items 1, 2 and 3 every two hours for the first ten hours of operation. Items 1&2: Step 1 Remove grease nipple access plate. Step 2 Clean excess grease from recess holes. Step 3 Lubricate with hand grease gun 2 to 4 pumps until air is expelled.
- Page 24 USER MANUAL Item 9: Remove chain case cover and spray chain case with chain lubricant. Item 10: Check tightness of pin retainer bolts. Item 11: Every one hundred (100) hours of operation the motor drive chains require inspection and possible adjustment to ensure correct tension. The motor drive chain tension is a maximum of 0-3mm deflection on the unloaded side of the chain when new, and 8-14mm deflection when the chain is at the end of its service life.
- Page 25 USER MANUAL 4.6 Rotors Maintenance In order to retard the wear of the rotors it is recommended that the "tips" of each of the rotor blades be built up with hardfacing on a periodical basis. The abrasive characteristics of the material being processed will determine how frequently this hardfacing action is required.
- Page 26 USER MANUAL 5. MAINTENANCE UNDER SPECIAL CONDITIONS Maintenance under extreme or special conditions needs to be carried out on a more frequent basis than during standard conditions. Therefore the operator/owner has the obligation to apply preventative maintenance on a more frequent basis to suit the site conditions. The following table is presented as a guide: Condition Recommendation...
- Page 27 The REMU screening bucket has two basic systems: hydraulic and mechanical. 6.3 Hydraulic Depending on the model the REMU bucket uses one or two low speed, high torque hydraulic motors. (The two motor units have the drive shafts mechanically connected and are hydraulically plumbed in parallel.) Both the single and two motor versions are connected to the auxiliary service ports of the carrier machine.
- Page 28 USER MANUAL 6.4 Mechanical The screening principle of this unit operates by material passing through the rotors, which are rotating at a set speed. If these rotors do not turn at the required speed the efficiency of the screening unit will we affected. 6.5 Fault Diagnosis Please refer to the following possible problems and actions.
- Page 29 USER MANUAL 6.5.2 Rotors Turn Slowly If the rotors turn slowly the problem could be caused by: A. Reduced hydraulic oil flow from the carrier. Action: Check flow at carrier service ports with flow meter. B. The carrier’s operating pressure could be below the required level. Action: Check carrier system pressure while screening unit is in stalled condition with pressure gauge.
- Page 30 USER MANUAL 7. STORAGE If the bucket is not to be used for a long period of time it must be carefully stored to prevent damage or loss of serviceability. Indoor storage is best, however if stored outside ensure that the unit is placed on suitable blocks in a well-drained, level and “hard standing”...
- Page 31 USER MANUAL 8. TRANSPORT 8.1 Transport when Mounted on Carrier Transportation of the screening bucket mounted on the carrier should be done in a normal manner as if the screening bucket were a normal bucket.
