Checking and reducing the gas pressure
1. Always use the gas hose (C) and the pressure
gauge (D) when checking the gas pressure.
2. Connect the gas hose to the pressure gauge.
3. Remove the plug from the charge valve (G).
4. Press the nozzle of the gas hose into the charge
valve and read the pressure.
5. Reduce the pressure by repeatedly inserting and
removing the nozzle.
NOTICE Only the nozzle may be used to reduce
the pressure. Never use pins, screwdrivers etc. as
these can damage the charge valve.
Every second hour
Regularly lubricate the working tool, the tool retainer
and the bushings.
Lubricating with a grease gun
WARNING Hot working tool during
operation and a period of time after use.
► Avoid contact with the working tool.
WARNING Hot hydralic breaker during
operation and a period of time after use.
► Avoid contact with the hydralic breaker.
CAUTION Skin eczema
Grease can cause eczema when it comes in contact
with the skin.
► Avoid getting grease on your hands. Wash
thoroughly after contact.
1. Press the working tool against the piston so that
the space between the piston and the working
tool does not fill with grease.
2. Lubricate the working tool's shank plentifully
while pressing the working tool against the
surface to avoid filling the cavity with grease. If
the cavity is filled with grease when the hydraulic
breaker is started, the lower seals may be
damaged.
When the working tool shank is exposed to high
pressure and high temperatures a standard type of
grease will melt and run. To avoid this always use a
genuine working tool grease from your supplier.
Central lubrication system
We recommend Chicago Pneumatic's central
lubrication system. When this system is fitted on the
carrier, grease is pumped continuosly from a
lubrication container on the carrier to the breaker
when the breaker is activated. This increases the life
of the tool bushings and insertion tools considerably.
Every day
♦
Check the tool retainer and split pin.
♦
Check that hoses, couplings and accumulator are
in a good condition.
♦
Check that bolts and connections are free from
damage and properly tightened. See tightening
torques in the spare parts list.
♦
Refill the central lubricating system.
