Crushing The CR300 has an electronic monitoring device to ensure the engine is kept at the optimum operating speed known as No-Stress. A product that has a harder density will automatically be detected and select a different operation mode until the greater load has passed. A product that requires a greater breaking force than the crusher can apply will automatically activate the Anti-Stall function and turn off the jaw movement so as not to stall the engine.
Adjustment of Crush Size Remove outer Bolt “A” with a 17mm spanner. Leave bolt “B” and arm fitted to the pin. Using a rubber mallet, knock pin from opposite side. Use retaining arm to turn pin back and forth to release & remove. The lower hole is for medium crush size - This is the most common size used.
