DANGER!
Failure to observe information marked “WARNING!” can result in
personal injury and/or serious damage to, or destruction of,
equipment!
WARNING!
CAUTION! Failure to observe information marked “Caution!” can result in damage
to equipment!
Do not remove
guards
2.2 Personnel
Only skilled or instructed personnel are allowed to work on the equipment.
According to Sandvik a skilled person is:
– An individual with technical knowledge or sufficient experience to
enable that individual to avoid hazards which this equipment can
create (e.g. operators or service staff).
According to Sandvik an instructed person is:
– An individual adequately advised or supervised by a skilled person to
enable that individual to avoid hazards which this equipment can
create (e.g. operators or service staff).
Dangerous work
Never touch the screen during operation. Never put hands, arms or
feet between moving parts and framework.
WARNING!
CAUTION! Clear the feed arrangement and the screen decks from processing ma-
terial before any maintenance work is carried out inside or below the
screen, to prevent fragments from falling down.
Hydraulic oil can get very hot in operation. Allow the oil to cool before
working on the hydraulic system.
Check, repair and replace defective hoses, valves or fittings before starting
the equipment.
2.3.5 Welding
CAUTION! Always consult with the manufacturer before any welding operation be-
gins on the jaw crusher.
CAUTION! Never let the welding current pass through a bearing or another vital
part. If earthed on the wrong side of the bearing, the latter can be so se-
riously damaged that bearing replacement is necessary.
If welding an item to the screen, the earth must be attached to the item itself.
If a screen component is to be welded, the earth should be attached as near to
the welding area as possible.
Toxic gases
Inhalation of welding fumes can be a dangerous to health. Always
follow instructions provided by the welding equipment supplier.
WARNING! Several parts of the jaw crusher is made of manganese steel. Long
term exposure to manganese oxide can effect the nervous system.
WARNING!
During screening, the main hazards are ejected stones, dust and noise
emissions. The following can be supplied by Sandvik Rock Processing to
reduce these hazards:
• partially or completely encapsulated screens
• non-metallic screening elements to reduce noise levels
• rubber-lined feed boxes and discharge lips
Noise levels
For noise levels, refer to section 3.1.5 Noise level.
3.1.2 Dimensions
For the dimensions, see the general drawing. It can be useful to copy theses
values into the table below.

3.1.3 Weight
For the weight, see the general drawing.
NOTE! The weight of the Master-Flo varies with the type of media, the various
options (feed box, spraying equipment…).
4.1 General
NOTE! A functional test should be performed during preparation for commissioning.
Make sure this is done, and that any faults are corrected. Refer to the
Installation Manual.
5.2 Lubrication
Correct Lubrication of the Master-Flo is absolutely essential. Follow the
instructions in this chapter for a trouble-free operation of the Master-Flo.
CAUTION! Incorrect lubrication may cause breakdown of the Master-Flo.
For lubrication instructions, refer to section 6. Lubrication.
NOTE! Material and screen media may change during the life span of the Master-
Flo. These changes impact the stroke and speed settings and may put your
Master-Flo out of its designed work-range. In such a case, call Sandvik for
advice.
In case of doubt
In case of doubt on the correct settings, please contact Sandvik.
Always switch off the power to the equipment before maintanance. Secure
that it is not possible for anyone else to switch on power while maintenance
work is being done.
Dangerous work
There is a risk of crushing when setting the speed and the stroke of
the Master-Flo
WARNING!
Do not remove guards
Make sure that all guards are in place and functioning, to prevent
exposure of flying fragments and rotating or vibrating parts.
PROHIBITION!
Rotating parts
All rotating parts of the equipment shall be protected by guard. Always
attach guards after maintenance work.
WARNING!
You must ensure maximum safety before doing any work on the Master-Flo
or making any adjustments. For more information, see section 2. Safety
precautions.

5.9.1 Content
The log book as a minimum must specify:
• when the work was done (date and, if possible, operating hours)
• who did the work
• what work was done
• any measurements and observations
• signature of foreman or supervisor.
5.9.3 Recommendation
Sandvik recommends that the owner of the Master-Flo maintains the log
book during the whole life time of the Master-Flo.
If you follow this recommendation, the log book must be available for
inspection by Sandvik representatives.
6.1 General
Lubrication is absolutely essential to your Master-Flo. It is important to keep
the mechanism correctly lubricated.
CAUTION! A low oil level can cause overheating and damage to the bearings. A
high oil level can cause seal leakage and increase the operating temper-
ature.
NOTE! All mechanisms are lubricated in an oil bath.
Following the instructions of this chapter will ensure a trouble free operation
of your screen.
Dangerous work
Always remember that hot oil can cause severe burns.
WARNING!
You must ensure maximum safety before doing any work on the Master-Flo
or making any adjustments. For more information, refer to section 2. Safety
precautions.

CAUTION! The media must fit tight over the crown of the deck and rest firmly on
the rubber protection.
i) Check the tensioning of the media by lightly tapping its surface with a
hammer and listening for the sound to have the same pitch over the
whole area.
CAUTION! Do not tension the media beyond the manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions.
j) Run the machine for a few minutes, preferably with material
If necessary, adjust the tensioning of the media.
