Hey guys, my name’s Jason Gabor, with Mount Baker Mining and Metals, and I wanted to show
you a video of the jaw crusher we got.
This thing came out of Spokane, a laboratory in Spokane.
It’s an eight by eight universal, and it’s run by a 7 and a half horse, three-phase motor.
The bearings and shaft are in really good shape.
We pulled those bearing covers off and the babbit is still nice and smooth, it’s not
scored or burned.
The jaw plates are in real good condition.
It was used primarily to crush core samples for an assay lab, and they were getting rid
of it so we picked it up.
And we’ll turn it on here; I’ve got a pile of concrete here, I don’t have any
ore to crush right now, but we’ll demonstrate with concrete to give you guys an idea.
There’s probably two hundred pounds of concrete there.
Right now I have it set for about one inch minus, it can go all the way down to half
of maybe three eighths.
Starts up nice and smooth.
Runs about 250 RPM.
There’s a guard for that side, we just don’t have it on right now.
