- Dump approach and edge protection
- Structural support
- Guarding and emergency stops
- Dust control
Related and matching equipment

Mobilisation and transport planning
Modules and mobile feeders require lifting or lowbed plans based on confirmed dimensions and mass.
Commercial information to define
- Equipment and setup
- Power or fuel
- Wear items
- Transport
Quotations should state the hire basis, minimum hours, exclusions, operator requirements, fuel and maintenance responsibilities, transport, establishment, standing time and the process for recording downtime.
Production and operating factors
Actual output depends on material hardness, feed size, moisture, screen apertures, recirculation and the loading method. Confirm the entire circuit instead of relying on a nominal machine capacity.
