Safety features built into Horizontal Grinder:

When grinding and a large contaminant (eg stone) is encountered,

1. The safety stop nylon bars will break.
2. The anvil and steel base anvil bolted to will drop.– will switch off machine — this helps to protect rest of machine from any possible damage caused by contaminant!
3. At this stage clean out the stone or contaminant through dropped out anvil and mounting block opening!
4. Change the safety stop nylon bars (either 2 large or 6 small diameter nylon bars)
   1. Smaller bars do hold anvil and block very snug and tight.
5. Machine ready to restart

Side View at production of Horizontal Grinder explaining break away!

Safety break away nylon bars which only work when massive contaminant is hit with roter– 2 sizes

Note anvil on steel block located directly under contact area of rotor with the replaceable hammers

Reason why Ritlee starting with this model:

• Ritlee are starting with this model because it fits into a soft top 40ft container which is a lot cheaper to ship than especially if machine slightly bigger forcing the use of frame container where shipping will be at least 3x the rate.

Ideal for the production of organic waste rows for composting.
