DAILY MAINTENANCE CHECKS
Check for loose or missing fasteners. Tighten or replace 
as needed.
Inspect tool retaining pins and pockets for wear.
Check for hydraulic leaks at all ttings and hoses. Re-
place any defective hoses.
Apply grease to the grease tting in the lower body each 
morning. Grease as needed throughout the work day.
TOOL STOP AND LOWER BUSHING
Inspect the tool stop and lower bushing for excessive 
galling and metal pickup on the tool bit. Also check for 
cracks. If cracks are present, the part must be replaced.
The extent of wear of the tool stop and lower bushings 
and the tool bit can be checked by moving a NEW tool 
bit back and forth and measuring the gap between the 
tool bit and the lower bushing. If the gap is more than 
.250 in./6 mm, the upper bushing, lower bushing and 
tool bit should be replaced. A gap in excess of .250 in./6 
mm will cause damage to the piston. Do not just replace 
the tool bit or the lower bushing individually as this will 
result in premature wear of the replaced component. It is 
recommended to replace ALL worn components.
Move the tool bit back and forth and measure the
gap between tool bit and lower bushing. (Use a new
tool bit.)
