Mine Rock Loading Machine

The Mine Rock Loading Machine (model ZMWM15) is a crawler-type rocker shovel designed for loading and mucking rock in underground mining tunnels and confined spaces where compact, high-muck-capacity equipment is required.

Key features include a crawler undercarriage for stable movement in tunnels, a rocker shovel/mucking bucket for fast loading, hydraulic drive components, an electrical control system, and a compact form factor suitable for underground operations.

Routine maintenance includes removing dirt and oil from surfaces, flushing the track area, checking and tightening loose fuselage fasteners, verifying hydraulic oil levels and inspecting for leaks, checking the electrical control box and wiring, ensuring the swing device moves freely, and inspecting hydraulic cylinders and hoses for scratches or leaks.

Before repairing hydraulic lines lower the working device to the ground, stop the motor, and release system pressure. Only then inspect and repair hoses, fittings or cylinders. Always follow lockout/tagout procedures and wear appropriate PPE.

Perform a visual check before each shift (tracks, visible leaks, fasteners, bucket condition). Do a more thorough weekly inspection (hydraulic oil level, electrical junctions, swing mechanism). Follow the manufacturer's scheduled maintenance for monthly and annual service.

Check hydraulic oil level and condition, inspect for external leaks, verify filters are not clogged, ensure pump drive and belts are intact, and confirm valves and actuators are operating. If problems persist, contact an authorized service technician.

Operators should be trained and authorized, wear required PPE, ensure adequate tunnel ventilation, use communication protocols, check for overhead clearance, keep bystanders clear during operation, and follow lockout/tagout procedures for maintenance.

Visually inspect the control box for damage, moisture or burnt components, check connectors and wiring for looseness or wear, verify fuses and circuit breakers, and test control switches and emergency stops. Isolate power before performing any repairs.

Stop the machine, lower the boom, follow safety procedures to isolate power, then manually remove accumulated dirt and debris from the tracks. Flush the track area if necessary and inspect for damage before resuming operation.

Provide the model (ZMWM15) and machine serial number to your dealer or the manufacturer. They can supply genuine spare parts, service manuals, and arrange authorized service technicians or field support.

Yes — many manufacturers offer customization options such as different bucket sizes, reinforced components for hard rock, modified track widths, or alternative hydraulic configurations. Contact your supplier with site specifications to discuss options.

Operators should receive hands-on training covering controls, safe operation in tunnels, and emergency procedures. Maintenance staff should be trained in hydraulic and electrical system service, daily inspections, troubleshooting, and safe repair procedures including depressurizing hydraulic circuits.

For transport: secure attachments, lock swing and boom, drain or secure fluids per transport regulations, and immobilize tracks. For long-term storage: clean machine, lower boom to ground, relieve hydraulic pressure, disconnect batteries or isolate electrical power, cover or shelter from elements, and follow manufacturer storage guidelines.

Ensure adequate ventilation to control dust and exhaust, monitor temperature extremes that can affect hydraulics and batteries, assess ground stability and roof clearance, and follow mine-site regulations for emissions and safety.

Warranty terms and technical support vary by manufacturer or dealer. Contact your supplier with the model and serial number to obtain warranty details, service plans, and local technical support contacts.
