hey guys my name is Jason with Mount Baker Mining and metals and on today's video I'm
going to demonstrate the six inch by 30 inch jaw Crusher here behind me we sell a lot of
these units the granite countertop shops who Crush their remnants and their waste to this
machine so they don't have to dump it in the landfill and they can sell the product as
gravel so let's go take a look at some of our samples then we'll put them through the
jaw Crusher here they'll come crushed down into the screen bin and we'll take a look
so here's the samples we're going to be running today and there's two different types there's
a natural stone which is here on my left and then there's a man-made product called quartz
that's here on my right and I've split them into the two separate types we're going to
run the Natural Stone first and I've actually broken the Natural Stone down further into
a couple different samples I've got the white stuff here in the front and then I've got
some colored Stone in the back that will run separate to show you how you can either run
it all through and sell it as gravel or if you want to sort by color a lot of our customers
get a premium on gravel that's sorted into different colors like black and green and
brown and white for example and then once we're done with the Natural Stone we'll come
over to our quartz and we'll Crush that through the crusher and I'll show you how that looks
just a little bit closer look here this is that Natural Stone comes out of the ground
they mine it this is all of our white stuff and then I have three different samples this
is kind of like a dark gray yellow brown mix I've got a brown color here and then I've
got a little bit of black that will run separate
[Music]
thank you [Music]
thank you
[Laughter]
thank you so here's our natural white stone that we crushed and it's about a three-quarter
inch product but like I said this is all the same color and it crushed down real nice it
was about as fast as we could feed it you can open the Jaws a little bit more if you
wanted a coarser crush but a lot of people want this fine three-quarter minus crash for
a Decorative Stone landscape mulch uh filling potholes in their driveways whatever so there's
the Natural Stone
white now we'll run three different samples of the black brown and gray and we'll show
you how those compare good
[Music]
all right

here are the four colored samples that we sorted here's the white stuff that we crushed
earlier on and I've gotten them all wet so you can see the color and it washed off the
dust but we've got the White and the brown really comes out you can really see the colors
and when they're sorted you can Envision them as a landscape mulch all the same color this
is a really cool one kind of a black gray and and off-white and then the black here
really is just sparkles in the in the sunlight so that's an example of sorting them or some
of our customers just mix it all together crush it all down in the gravel and sell it
as gravel and here's a quick look at our quartz samples there's a bunch of different types
in here but they're all essentially little pieces of rock like this one they can mix
glass in them rock dust and then they mix them with a polymer plastic type of thing
that binds them all together and they get these nice smooth countertops some of these
pieces are real big but as long as they'll fit down through our 30 inch wide jaw Crusher
mouth the crush will crush them up real nice

this is our quartz engineered Stone went through the crusher it's a little bit harder to crush
I don't know harder is the right word it seems like it's it has a little more give than Natural
Stone it it uh it's a little more flexible I guess is the word I'm looking for so it
just crushes slower but everything went through and crushed to this really nice fine product
and same thing you can use it for landscape mulch gravel whatever but if nothing else
you really really reduced your volume
and turned your waist into a product that you can now turn around and sell so when we
sell these machines we sell them with the big loading Hopper and a discharge chute so
you can direct them into a barrel or a bucket or something onto a conveyor but on this one
I wanted to show you guys so you can see down inside how it worked and then we could pull
stuff in and out real quick this is an electric version It's run with a 20 horsepower three-phase
electric motor we also have a gas model of this size so if you don't have three-phase
power or you want to put it out in the back 40 of your shop yard somewhere and run it
away from power we have an option for that but also we have a unit that we call our slab
module our slab Crusher module and it has a big vibrating Hopper it has a conveyor that
goes out from under the jaw Crusher and you can dump a whole box full of Remnant into
the vibrating Hopper and it vibrates it down into the crusher and then the discharge conveyor
takes it out and stacks into a pile or a tote or whatever but right now I'm going to show
you some footage I took a couple years ago of the the module the hopper The Crusher and
then the conveyor so it starts with the orange Hopper behind me it can be loaded with a tote
or bin of scrap material the hopper vibrates the material at an even rate down into the
6x30 jaw pressure here once the material is crushed it falls down onto this conveyor belt
which can carry the material up and stack it into a pile a box or a bin for later use

thank you

thank you
so here's the material we crushed the last couple pieces were some of that man-made quartz
and you can see that crushed it up pretty nice and we crushed the whole Barrel I don't
know in maybe five minutes now we're looking at the back of the 6x30 jaw Crusher and we
can go over uh some simple things here there's grease fittings here along the back of the
movable jaw and one over there and uh greasing about once a day is fine and when the machine
is new you want to make sure that you build up a bead of Grease here which creates a seal
and keeps the dust out so in the first couple days operation make sure that a bead of Grease
is built up here it does need to be flinging off the shaft but that's what creates the
seal for the bearings to adjust the jaw Gap these plates are spacers which push out the
shuttle and the toggle and conversely drives the jaw plates forward so to increase the
Gap you would take out some of these plates which would pull all this back and open up
the jaw plate after that's done this is the tensioning rod this either needs to be tightened
or loosened depending on the adjustment to the job plate if the jaw plate is opened up
this needs to be tightened to keep tension on the whole assembly back here so that it's
not flopping around these bolts here and here keep tension on the plates and if you are
going to add or remove plates you loosen these bolts and this large bolt pushes the whole
mechanism forward then you would back this off a couple turns so you could pull these
plates out so that's in a nutshell how you adjust the jaw Gap and the easy maintenance
on the 6x30 jaw Crusher so I hope you guys enjoy
