The roll is rotatably mounted in a housing and a hood is connected to the housing to deflect and discharge the crushed material. The crusher roll is driven by a belt coupled to pulleys on the roll and on a drive motor shaft. The drive motor is supported by a bracket pivotably mounted on an inclined baffle wall of the hood. The roll drive adopts a position below the upper surface of the crusher housing.
