We get over the trouble of starting bydrilling a hole through the pitman of the crusher and turning ona steam jet, which warms the pitman so that it will not we put in a counter shaft between the crusher and the motor,and on the counter shaft we put a heavy fly-wheel connected di-rectly with the motor. We start the motor until we get the fly-wheel going at full speed and then gradually throw on the crusherwith the friction clutch, and in this way we have had no difficultystarting it with a 100 horse power motor. But if you start thecrusher directly you will need a 150 horse power
