The shear is placed on a hard horizontal surface. It is controlled from a portable remote control located in the loader cabin. The driver loads scrap into the open chamber. By starting the automatic shearing cycle, the following operations take place: holder forward, knife forward, knife backwards, holder backwards. By moving the holder backwards, scrap is moved to the bottom of the open chamber by gravity and new shearing cycle begins.
Along reinforced bottom of the container, scrap is moved by hydraulic cylinders, tool-holding slide against the front wall with V-shaped knives. Scrap is compressed and held before shearing by means of a holder with hydraulic cylinder. Located at the rear part of the shears there are drive box with Diesel engine, tank, pumps, hydraulic distribution and electrical equipment.
The power drive is located at the rear part of the shears between the shear sides and has a door and covers. Two oil coolers are located in the drive room and are used for after-cooling of the oil from the main cooler. The main cooler is located in the back part of hopper above the drive. The Diesel engine drive is equipped with cooler with higher output and on the PTO output is located a hydraulic generator driving a hydraulic motor for the main cooler fan.
The hydraulic motor for the fan and the hydraulic generator are connected with hoses and quick couplings for fast dismantling of the hopper. Located on the rear box wall in a cover is the lockable door of the switchboard. Solenoid-operated mobile valves ensure distribution of hydraulic oil to the cylinders. Electrical controls themselves are located on the panel of the drive box and on the remote control panel.
The remote control ensures transmission of all basic functions in manual and automatic modes
The Diesel engine is equipped with diagnostics and display a of the working condition (number of hours, fuel consumption, revolutions etc.).
