An electric motor of 20-horse
power is used for operating and is
sufficient to crush a rock nine by 18
inches. The rock is then carried to
the loading hopper by an elevator
and dumped into a sieve which dis
tributes the particles according to
size. The larger stones are used
as a foundation of the road bed,
then come those of medium size
with the powdered rock as a final
application.
