If your mobile crusher cuts corners when it comes to safety you...
Crushing is a violent process and downsizes material that was never meant to come apart. While operating a crusher rocks and debris can fall down or rickochet from the crusher and cause severe damage and injuries. Therefore, it is reocmmended to keep a safe distance and use proper personal protectice equipment.
If the engine or crusher box are not easy accessible you risk safety while climbing ladders with heavy wear parts and power tools. RUBBLE MASTER Mobile Impact Crushers are designed to keep your feet on the ground to work with the machine efficiently and safely.
Hydraulic cylinders move heavy components. If activated by accident you risk being squashed. Sensors ensure that it is safe to operate the hydraulics and the 2-hand operation ensures that every move is a concious deicsion to prevent injuries.
Safety and locking pins are highlighted in red for maximum clarity. If operators overlook safety pins, your risk damage or injuries. The RUBBLE MASTER color coding is consistently used throughout the machine so that you get it right intuitively.
The locking pins keep structural components in place and take the stress off the hydraulic cylinders. Without the locking pin in place, heavy structural components could move and injure operators.
Working inside the crusher could result in getting squashed by the rotor. The locking bar keeps the rotor in place to avoid injuries.
Keeping unauthorized and untrained personnel from operating a mobile crusher is key. The main battery switch prevents the start of the machine.
If you can't see the full impact of pressing a button you risk injuries and damages to the machine. The extra long leash of the pendant control allows you to find the spot that gives you most control over the task at hand so you can setup faster and minimize safety risks.
At RUBBLE MASTER, we understand that mistakes happen when people don't know what's happening. The status lighting visualizes if the machine is operating, moving, or if there is an error state so that the crusher operator in the cab and the crew on the ground have a shared understanding and don't get caught by surprise.
