Outlining the preliminary essential steps for setup and initial operation:
Please review and follow all safety and maintenance procedures outlined in the user’s manual prior to operating any VYKIN machinery.
Prior to crushing any material:
The VYKIN 50 accepts materials between 12 to 14.5 inches in size — with an output adjustable down to 3/4” of an inch.
If crushing reinforced concrete, ensure there are NO long pieces of rebar sticking out of the concrete to avoid a piece getting caught at the bottom of the jaw and ripping the conveyor belt. You MUST cut any visible rebar that protruding or sticking out of your concrete.
Manual feeder stop switch is located besides the hopper, on the maintenance platform.
Jaw speed between 300 – 360 RPM (330 is average, but 350 is a decent speed to deliver high impact as well).
Feeder speed is usually at 5 notch (but reduce to your material feed flow as necessary).
Battery powers the water dust suppression system and the magnetic cross belt (iron remover). You must turn off the battery after shutting down your crusher to avoid draining the battery and likewise jump-starting due to dead battery.
Bolts to hopper are in a bag, also found in the back panel besides the wireless remote.
Page 47 in manual for filling hydraulic oil tank. Image below shows fill ports; 1st hydraulic fill port on left is found in the right cabin (on side of control panel) — fill this tank first, before filling outside tank (image on right below). After 50-hours, filter the hydraulic oil for any metal filings during break-in period.

Hydraulic output adjustment:
Before adjusting the discharge opening, stop feeding material, completely clear the crushing chamber, and stop the crusher. Loosen the spring lock nut, then loosen the tension spring adjustment nut enough to relieve the spring preload without allowing the toggle plate to become unseated (do NOT completely remove the spring tension, the spring must retain enough control that the toggle plate does not fall out of its seats). Use the hydraulic control lever to increase or decrease the jaw opening in small increments (do NOT hold lever continuously). After reaching the desired closed-side setting, confirm that the toggle plate is still correctly seated. Retighten the tension spring to its original compressed tension and secure the lock nut. Rotate the crusher through one complete revolution by the approved manual method, reinstall all guards, and test-run the crusher empty. Never operate the crusher if there is jaw clapping, toggle knocking, or metal-to-metal contact. If there is jaw clapping or knocking (metal-to-metal banging / unusual vibration), stop and isolate the crusher; (1) recheck and confirm the toggle plate is still seated; and then (2) recheck the tension spring and progressively tighten the tension spring in small imcrements until knocking disappears.
