5.3 Supply
5.4 Assembling and fastening the device
Remove the packaging.
Fit the actuator (drive unit, hydraulic or other).
1.
The aluminium body of the LBC cannot be used as external support for the underlying machines (for in-
stance you cannot hang augers, belt conveyors, channels, etc.)
2.
Remove the screws that fastening the LBC to its housing.
3.
By exploiting two diametrically opposite holes, securely fasten the LBC and lift it using a lifting means having
suitable capacity.
4.
Ensure the grid stays inside the housing and it engages the body of the LBC handled. (Risk of falling during
handling)
5.
Then remove manually the grid from the housing and position it on the LBC installation place, paying atten-
tion to its orientation.
6.
Once the LBC grid has been fastened, insert the required number of bolts without tightening them fully.
7.
Make sure there is equal spacing between the mobile and the fixed blades of the grid and that both are
centred with the flange to which they are fastened.
8.
Then tighten, using a suitable tool, the bolts by applying a torque of 30Nm and fastening together the flange
of the plant, the grid and the lower half-body. Do not forget the OR for the NO food type.
9.
Then couple the flange of the plant to the upper half-body of the LBC and tighten the bolts.
10.
Rotate the shaft over 360° by applying a torque value of 30Nm with an appropriate tool to check the pres-
ence of friction or impact; if friction or impact points are found, slacken the Lump Breaking Feeder Valve
and repeat the operations starting from the point 7.
