OPERATOR INSTRUCTIONS

Before Start

 Check your new Mobile Trommel Screen has arrived in perfect condition as it
has been run in at the factory before shipping.

 Read the engine manual, check engine oil level and battery connection.

 Open the side inspection doors on the machine and check both diesel and
hydraulic oil levels. (fig 1 – A)

 Ensure the machine is positioned on a level surface.

 Ensure all protective guards and covers are fitted and secure. Check
that no persons, animals or tools are in the screen drum or feeder.

 Before starting up the engine ensure the hydraulic control levers are in neutral
(fig 1 – B) and no one is close to the machine.

 Ensure machine is in its lowered/operation position. Lift and Lower

lever is inside the large right side door (fig 1 – F)

Operation

 If a warning tag is attached to the engine start switch or to the controls,

DO NOT start the engine or move the controls. Consult with the person
that attached the warning tag before the engine is started.

 Insert and turn the key clockwise to the first position, ensure the battery light
illuminates. Turn the key to the second position, wait until the coil light
illuminates then turn the key to the third position holding it until the engine fires
up. (fig 2)

 When the engine is running, lower the trommel jack legs into operating
position using the control lever (fig 1 – D) on the right side front of the
machine. Once lowered, insert the jack leg safety pins into position. (fig 1 – E)

 The stockpile conveyor is unfolded using the lever on the forward left side of
the machine. (fig 1 – G)

13
 T3000 Trommel Operation Manual

 Place the control levers in the ‘on’ position (fig 1 – B), this will start the
trommel drum and conveyor belts running. When running, check trommel
drum is revolving freely and belts are tracking in line.

 Check for any hydraulic leaks, damage can be caused in transport.

 Both the drum speed and conveyor speeds are increased by turning the
control knobs on the control levers in an anti-clockwise direction. (fig1 – C)

 Set the trommel speed to no. 6, and set in-feed conveyor belt to no. 3.

 Now, material can be loaded into the hopper. Set the in-feed belt to desired
speed so as to have the material leaving the trommel drum free of fines.

 While screening always make sure the stockpile of fines does not build up to
touch the conveyor, as this will carry around the drum, and damage the belt.

 Keep the oversize pile moved as it can build up and block the trommel.

 Before attempting to adjust belts, free hopper, or any other

maintenance, ALWAYS make sure the machine is switched off and is
in its lowered position.

 Avoid putting large concrete or timber blocks in the drum as they may damage
belts or screen mesh.

 Heavy duty punch plate mesh can be provided for heavier applications.

 When screening ONLY stop trommel drum in an emergency as it may be

difficult to start when loaded.

Loading/Unloading

 The Mobile Trommel Screen is equipped with a feature to raise the chassis to
increase ground clearance for loading and unloading from a trailer. This is
operated from the lift/lower lever inside the large right side door (fig 1 – F).
The trommel is to be operated in the raised position ONLY for the purpose of
loading and unloading. DO NOT operate the screener with the trommel in the
raised position.

 Once the Mobile Trommel Screen is loaded unto or unloaded from a trailer,
ensure it is returned to the lower position for transport or screening operation.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICING

Cleaning and Maintenance

The Mobile Trommel has been designed to be extremely accessible to allow any
cleaning and maintenance to be carried out with ease. There are 4 doors either side
of the chassis and 1 in the rear allowing access to all sides of the components within.
A unique feature of the trommel are the doors on both sides of the drum, allowing
unlimited access to the drum drive components and making it extremely quick and
easy to replace the drum itself.
