 Section 1 INSTALLATION

To ensure the BM&M Screen is installed properly the following steps must be
followed.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING

BM&M Screens are supplied with a tubular support stand. It is essential that the
supports be properly engineered. See the certified setting plan drawing for the
design criteria.

SUPPORT STAND ASSEMBLY (if the screen has been shipped “broken down”)

1. The stand consists of 2 cross members and 2 side frames. See the
exploded drawing on page 4.

2. Place the 2 lower cross members in position and place the screen body on
top of them.

3. Bring the side frames into position and bolt them to the cross members.

4. The stand must now be leveled and firmly bolted down.

5. Bolt all four hangers into position and secure their upper ends as shown
on the drawing on page 5.

6. Bolt on the hanger brackets if required.

7. Raise the screen into position and attach the lower ends of the hangers to
the hanger brackets on the screen body as shown on the drawing on
page 6. Ensure the safety bolts are secured.

8. All brackets and stand connection bolts must be tightened to the following
lubricated torques.

5/8” NC: 110 ft-lbs

3/4” NC: 200 ft-lbs

At this time torque the Top Yoke bolts on the hangers to 480 ft-lbs., lubricated.
Torque the Bottom Yoke bolts to 250 ft-lbs. After the equal hanger loading
procedure is completed (page 8) the Bottom Yoke bolts should be torqued to 480
ft-lbs., lubricated.

Bolt on any discharge chutes that may have been shipped loose. Bolt on the
motor, motor base, drive belt and drive guard if these items have been shipped
loose. When installing the belt on the drive pulley ensure that if does not come off
the driven pulley. Ensure the belt is properly aligned and that the axis of the
motor remains vertical.

BELT TENSION

Proper belt tension is vital. V-belt drives must be taut at start-up and must be
checked again after the first hour of operation. Use standard tensioning
procedures for V-belts.

After the belt has been properly tensioned, it is imperative that all the motor bolts
be torqued to the maximum. This includes the pivot bolts and tension rods.
Failure to do proper torquing may result in serious damage.

Ensure that the entire drive guard assembly is bolted firmly in place.

Run a flexible rubber-sheathed power cable to the motor that allows for the
motion of the screen. A draped loop about 2 feet in length is adequate. Since the
motor shakes with the screen, ensure that all connections in the conduit box are
solid and secure to prevent movement. Motor direction is not critical although
material “drift” can be altered by changing rotation.

A time-delay device must be incorporated in the start/stop circuitry. A delay of

approximately 2 minutes in duration will allow the machine to come to a complete
rest before restarting. It is imperative that the screen be started only if it is
completely montionless.

CLEARANCE

The screen requires room to freely swing in its orbit. Although the size of this
orbit is only 1 1/4” in diameter this motion is exaggerated at start-up and shut-
down. It is therefore essential that 4” of horizontal clearance be provided all
around the screen from all points on the screen. In its stationary position nothing
should be closer than 4” in a horizontal direction. Failure to provide proper
clearance will result in damage to the screen.

BM&M Screening Solutions Toll-free 1-800-663-0323 7

EQUAL HANGER LOADING

Equal hanger loading is critical for smooth running, long machine life and minimal
vibration of the support structure. Improperly loaded hangers can throw the
machine out of balance and may cause severe damage to the hangers or
supporting structure.

The following procedure will ensure equal loading:

1. Ensure the machine is bolted down.

2. Completely loosen the nut at the lower end of one hanger until that
hanger does not support any weight of the screen.

3. Draw a plan view of the screen and mark down measurement “X”
between the end of the hanger and the hanger support bracket as
shown on the illustration on page 6. Use the provided shim stock to
measure this gap. Tighten the hanger bolt to 250 ft-lbs.

4. Do the same for the other three hangers one at a time, marking down
each gap measurement “X” on your drawing. Note that the
measurements across the diagonals should be very similar.

5. Subtract the smallest measurement from the largest measurement. If

this difference is less than 0.025” the machine is balanced. If not, the
machine must be shimmed.

Shimming:

To find the correct shim size to use, take the difference obtained in Step 5
and divide it by 2. Place this size of shim (nearest sized shim or
combination of shims to get the nearest size) in the gap of the hanger with
the largest measurement and tighten the hanger nut back up. Run the
machine for 3 to 4 minutes and then shut the machine off, allowing it to
come to rest.

Repeat Steps 1 to 4 using a new plan view diagram. However, when

recording the gap measurement for the shimmed hanger, leave the shim
in the gap and record the distance between the end of the hanger and the
top of the shim. Always use shim stock to measure the gaps.
Note: Only one corner should require shimming.

If the gap above the shim has become larger than the previously
un-shimmed gap, remove shim and repeat all steps.

If the machine is still not balanced, contact BM&M for assistance.

BM&M Screening Solutions Toll-free 1-800-663-0323 8

Note: After the equal hanger loading procedure is completed satisfactorily, the
Bottom Yoke bolts must be torqued to 480 ft-lbs., lubricated.

START-UP

Grease U-joints before start-up. Before starting the machine be sure that nothing
is fouling the screen and that all guards are in place. A new machine will have
high initial internal friction and high current draws during initial start-up. This can
also happen in cold weather. The high current state will rapidly drop as the
moving parts loosen up.

SHUT DOWN IMPORTANT

Once the power is shut off, it is absolutely essential that the machine be allowed
to come to a complete stop before restarting. To prevent accidental restarting, it
is advisable that a time-delay of 2 minutes be implemented in the starter circuitry
to prevent this from happening. Under no circumstances should the machine be
jogged on and off and it should never be reversed.

NOTE: The speed of the screen is set by the factory. The speed should
never be altered without explicit approval of BM&M.

SAFETY STRAPS

The BM&M Screen is suspended by four hanger assemblies. Should one of

these hanger assemblies wear out or fail due to lack of lubrication, the screen will
not fall since the remaining three hangers will continue to support the screen.

Failed hangers should be repaired or replaced immediately.

If this is not done and the screen continues to operate on three hangers then there is an
increased risk that one of the remaining three hangers will fail, which will allow the
screen to fall from its operating position. This would result in damage to both the screen
and the surrounding structure and any personnel located beneath the screen would be
at great risk. Hanger failures of this type are extremely rare and proper maintenance
procedures will virtually eliminate the possibility.

To eliminate the risk of human injury and machinery damage, safety straps should be
installed on all four corners of the screen, especially in areas where personnel work
beneath the screen or where a single hanger failure would not be detected.

These straps should be adequately sized and should be installed so as to not allow the
screen to drop more than 2 inches. Connections should be tight to prevent chafing, and
should be made to the four hanger brackets on the screen. See the drawing on page 10.

 Section 2 MAINTENANCE

The BM&M screen requires very little maintenance due to a minimum of moving
parts and robust construction.

DRIVE UNIT

The drive unit is a heavy duty double-row tapered roller unit encased in a solid
steel housing. It utilizes spring-loaded radial lip seals and comes prepacked with
grease. It requires no additional field lubrication or servicing.

DRIVE BELT

The drive belt consists of a single-reduction drive belt; a multi-section “B” size V-
belt. V-belts should be periodically checked for tension and alignment.

HANGERS

The needle-bearing universal joints will give trouble-free service providing they
receive periodic greasing with good quality wheel-bearing type grease every 400
hours of operation or every two weeks.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Periodically check all bolts for proper tightness. Check all bolts after initial 30
minutes of running and then once every three months of service thereafter. Refer
to the appropriate section for the torque settings.

It is essential that all bolts that secure the drive unit assembly are held to
the correct torque settings.

SCREENS

BM&M Super Screens are typically equipped with ball decks which utilize
captive, synthetic-rubber balls to help keep the screens clean. The screen mesh
(or perforated plate) rests on the top surface of the ball box frame. These frames
are made of steel but may also be made of aluminum or hardwood, depending
on the application.

BM&M Screening Solutions Toll-free 1-800-663-0323 12

The screen mesh may be fastened to the ball box frame depending on the
specific installation conditions. Screens have reinforced hooks on the two
longitudinal edges and are utilized to tension the screens. Full-length skirts
engage into the reinforced hooks and generate the tension via a series of
threaded rods and hex nuts through the side wall of the screen body.

See pages 14 and 15.

SCREEN REMOVAL

In most cases the screens and ball decks can be removed in one of three ways,
as shown on page 19.

1. Through the access door; located at the infeed end of the machine.
2. Through the discharge end, as the discharge chute assembly is bolted on
but is equipped with hinges that allow it to be swung open. Connection
sleeves may need to be removed.
3. Through the top. This entails removal of the dust cover, any inlet
connection sleeves and any dust evacuation sleeves.

The best removal method for a particular installation will depend on a number of
factors such as:

1. Access space around the machine.

2. The number of sections that make up each screen and ball deck.
3. The type of screen element.

One-Piece Screens

If there is ample room to remove a one-piece screen at the infeed end or

discharge end of the machine, then it is best to remove the screen through
whichever end is more convenient. To do this:

1. Loosen the door clamps and swing open the access door, or open the
discharge chute.
2. Loosen the tension skirts, raise them and lock them in the ‘up’ position
using the supplied screen removal tool (P/N SR-2), as shown on page 21.
3. If the ball decks are to be removed then loosen the set screws located on
both sides and ends of the machine.
4. Pull out only the screen element or pull out the screen element and ball
deck at the same time. The ball deck can be left in place if desired.

Screens in Sections

If the screens are in sections, due to the size of the machine or due to limited
room at one or both ends of the machine, the best way to remove the screens is
to:
1. Loosen the door clamps and swing open the door, or open the discharge
chute.

BM&M Screening Solutions Toll-free 1-800-663-0323 16

 2. Loosen the tension skirts, raise the skirts and lock them in the “up”
position.
3. Loosen the set screws located at both sides and ends of the machine.
4. Pull out the screen elements and ball deck together. The ball deck
sections are bolted together as shown on page 20. If there is insufficient
clearance behind the machine, they will have to be unbolted as each
section is pulled clear of the machine. Note that finer mesh screens will
have overlapping seal plates at the joints between each section and they
will have to be removed first before each screen element is removed.

Screens removed out of the Top of the Machine

If there is insufficient room to remove the screens at either end of the machine,
then the screens and ball decks must be removed through the top. To do this:

1. Remove any inlet connection sleeves.

2. Remove the dust cover.
3. Loosen and remove all the screen tension skirts.
4. Remove the screen element.
5. Loosen the set screws at both sides and ends of the machine and remove
the ball deck.
6. Repeat the above for any additional screen decks below.

For very fine, delicate screen elements it is recommended that the ball decks be
removed as well as the screen elements, so that the screens can be placed on
top of the ball decks for reinsertion into the machine. This will minimize the
potential for damaging the screen element.

SCREEN REPLACEMENT

One-Piece Screens

If one-piece screens have been removed from either end of the machine then the
screens can simply be slid back into position. Make sure that the tension skirts
are in the ‘up’ position using the supplied tool.

Make sure that the leading edge of the screen is not damaged as it is pushed
into position. This can easily be avoided if a pair of screen-length plastic pipes
about 1” (25mm) in diameter are first laid down on top of the ball deck. The

BM&M Screening Solutions Toll-free 1-800-663-0323 17

screen element is then placed on top of the pipes and pushed into position. Once
the screen is in position the pipes can be removed.

Lower the tension skirts in position and snug them up so that the screen remains
centered on the ball decks. Once all of the slack has been taken up, the tension
skirts should be tightened in sequence to ensure a uniform, taut screen. The
tension skirts should not be over-tightened or the screen will be damaged.

If the ball decks have been removed simply push them back into the machine
before installing the screen. Use the set screws to loosely center the ball decks.
Once all the set screws are snug, give them one extra turn and lock them in
position with the lock nuts. Excessive tightening of the set screws can damage
the ball decks.

Screens in Sections

If the screen is in sections it is best to lay each screen section loosely on top of
its appropriate ball deck and push both together into the machine. Make sure that
the tension skirts are locked in the ‘up’ position using the supplied tool.

Each ball deck should be bolted to the next adjacent ball deck and any
overlapping seal plates attached at the same time. When all of the screens and
ball decks are in position use the set screws that secure the ball decks to loosely
center the ball decks across the width. When all of the set screws are snug, give
them one extra turn and lock them in position and snug them up so that the
screen remains centered on the ball decks.

When all of the slack has been taken up, the tension skirts should be tightened in
sequence to ensure a uniform, taut screen. The tension skirts should not be over-
tightened or the screen will be damaged.

Screens removed out of the Top of the Machine

If the screens have been removed out of the top then reassembly is the reverse
of the removal procedure. Follow the above procedures for installing the ball
decks and tensioning the screens.

5. Remove the screen by sliding it out. BALL BOX
6. If the screen mesh to be replaced is very fine, place two screen
guides down the length of the machine (we recommend 1” dia.
PVC pipe). This will help the new screen to glide in without
binding up on any protrusions. After the new screen is located
in the machine and is ready for the skirt tensioning, remove the
screen guides.
7. Release the SR-2 tool to bring the tension skirts back into
position.
8. Replace the rubber washers, timber washers and nuts onto all
tension skirt redi-rods. Before tightening, make sure the tension
skirt is positioned in the screen hook.
9. Screen tensioning should not be excessive as screen damage
may occur. A slightly compressed rubber washer is usually
acceptable. The screen cloth should be taut and even across
the whole deck. Hand-tighten the nuts for finer screen meshes.

DRIVE UNIT

The BM&M screen drive unit is located in the central drive box. See drawings on
pages 24 and 25.

Procedure for removal and replacement:

1. Disconnect the power supply and tag-out for safety.

2. Remove the top screen directly above the drive box.
3. Remove the top cover:
a) remove the 3/4” bolts around the perimeter.
b) remove the three 1” bolts in the top end cap.
c) remove the 1” plug bolt in center of the top end cap.
4. Insert the longer 1” bolt in its place and use it to break the grip of the taper
fit on the top of the shaft assembly.
5. Slacken the belt drive and remove the belt.
6. Remove the four 5/8” bolts holding the drive pulley to the bearing housing
and remove the pulley.
7. Remove the four 7/8” bolts holding the rotor (counterweight) to bearing
housing and remove the rotor.
8. Remove the split ring.
9. Since the bearing is pressed onto the shaft and into the housing, the shaft,
bearing and housing must be removed as a one unit. This is known as the
Drive Unit. Remove the three 1” bolts and central 1” plug bolt on the
underside of the drive box. Insert a longer 1” bolt and use it to break the
grip of the taper fit on the bottom end of the shaft. Remove the entire drive
unit.
10. Reassembly is the reverse of the above procedure. Install a new drive unit
with the tapered end of the shaft pointing down.

BM&M Screening Solutions Toll-free 1-800-663-0323 22

Attaining proper bolt torques is essential for all fasteners that are used in the
main drive assembly – especially the six 1” NC bolts that secure the drive unit.
These are the correct bolt torques for all Grade 5 NC bolts used in the drive
assembly.

Lubricated bolt torques

1” NC 480 ft-lbs
7/8” NC 320 ft-lbs
3/4” NC 200 ft-lbs
5/8” NC 110 ft-lbs
1/2” NC 55 ft-lbs

The shaft must be bolted into the bottom first and the three 1” bolts fully torqued
to ensure the shaft is properly seated into the taper. It is essential that the three
1” bolts be torques to 480 ft-lbs as many times as necessary since the first bolt
will be loosened as the third one in torqued. Failure to follow this procedure
for both top and bottom 1” bolts will result in serious damage.

Cleanliness is of the utmost importance, especially in areas around the grease

seal rings and their surfaces. To prevent entry of moisture into the main bearing
under adverse conditions, install the gasket under the top end cap along with a
general purpose sealing compound.

HANGER BEARINGS

The hanger bearings may be replaced by removing the entire hanger assembly
from the screen. The screen can be supported on the remaining three hangers
while the fourth is being serviced. The U-joints are replaced by using a
replacement kit consisting of the cross, four bearings and a set of snap rings.

NOTE: The screen should not be operated while hanging on only three
hangers.

Whenever a hanger is changed out, the loading on all four hangers should be
checked again to ensure equal loading. See installation instructions on page 7.

DRIVE BELT

The drive belt adjustment is made outside the screen, at the motor.

1. Loosen the nuts on the adjusting rods and pivots.

2. Adjust the nuts to increase tension.
3. Tighten all nuts securely.

Belt replacement – see the exploded drawing and instructions on page 27.

Note: When the top cover is removed it is essential that the three 1” bolts
be torqued as follows:

The three 1” bolts must be fully torqued to ensure the shaft is properly seated
into the taper. It is essential that the three 1” bolts be torqued to 480 ft-lbs as
many times as necessary since the first bolt will be loosened as the third one is
torqued. Failure to follow this procedure will result in serious damage.

 Section 6 WARRANTY

Duration

BM&M’s Warranty is valid for 12 months from start-up or 18 months from the
date of shipment which ever occurs first. The exception to this is the Main Drive
Bearing Unit which is covered for 3 years.

Items Covered Under Warranty

Defect in design, material or workmanship that leads to failure of bearings or

bolted assembles, broken welds or metal fatigue.

Items Not Covered Under Warranty

• Wear of the screening media

• Wear of product contact areas

• Failures due to:

- Incorrect installation procedures
- Improper or insufficient maintenance or service procedures
- Abuse or misapplication
- Unauthorized modifications made to any part of the machine

• Motors, which are covered by their manufacturer’s warranty

Voiding the Warranty

BM&M screens are designed, engineered and manufactured to strict tolerances

so that the final product is fully balanced. Stress-relieving ensures that residual
welding stresses are eliminated. As a result of these procedures, any
unauthorized modifications, welding, or additions made to these screens will void
the warranty. In addition, the use of parts not supplied by BM&M will also void the
warranty.
