Replacement of chisel

Remove the stop pin and the 330mm long chisel pin at first. When next installing, please insert the chisel into the pin when the chisel is put in the level position.

When re-installing, please proceed in the reverse sequence of disassembly. First, check whether all parts are worn or cracked. It should be polished and repaired If the chisel is deformed. The whole chisel should be coated with lubricate oil, then install the chisel. If the chisel pin is seriously deformed, it is difficult in replacing the chisel. So pay attention to checking the chisel and chisel pin every 100-150 hours.

Operating direction of the chisel

When operating, the direction of the chisel and the excavator’s arm should be the same, and the chisel should be vertical to the rock surface. If the chisel is not vertical to the rock surface, the chisel may slip during work. When breaking, please adjust the chisel direction firstly, and then break the rock from the suitable hitting point of the rock under the stability condition.

Instructions for chisel operation:

  1. A suitable downward force can improve the efficiency of the hydraulic hammer breaker.
  2. The position of the hammer breaker adjustment – when the hammer breaker cannot break the rock, it should be moved to a new hitting point.
  3. The breaking operation shall not be operated continuously at the same position. The the temperature of chisel would rise when breaking at the same position for a long time. The chisel hardness would be reduced to damage the tip of chisel, thereby the operation efficiency cut down.
  4. Do not use the chisel as a lever to pry rocks. ​​
  5. Please put down the excavator arm to a safe state when stopping operation. Don’t leave the excavator when the engine is started. Please ensure all brake and locking devices ineffective state.
