Fill product to be ground
The fill hopper B can accept product up to grain sizes of 90
mm.
This hopper is not intended, however, to store a reserve of
product; its function is exclusively to feed material to the
grinding chamber and to keep ground product from being
ejected.

If the grinding chamber W is filled more than 2/3 full, then the
guide plates of the fill hopper could be damaged; the moving
breaker arm would force the product into the crusher housing,
behind the breaker arm.
