3. PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
3.1 OVERVIEW
The product is a hydraulically operated hammer. It can be used on any carrier which
meets the necessary hydraulic and mechanical installation requirements. The unit
functions by repeatedly raising a steel piston and driving it down onto the head of a
removable breaking tool.
No additional pressure accumulators are necessary since the integrated pressure
accumulator absorbs hydraulic pressure peaks. The impact energy of the hammer is
almost constant and independent of the carrier's hydraulic system.
3.2 REMOVAL FROM PACKAGE
Remove all the steel belts from the package. Open the package and remove all
plastics covering the product.
Recycle all package materials (steel, plastic, wood) properly.
Check that the product is in good condition and that there is no visible damage.
Check that all ordered parts and accessories have been enclosed with the product.
Some options may be provided by your local dealer like installation kits; including
hoses and mounting bracket.
3.3 LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS
Use a hoist when lifting components which weight 23 kg (51 lb) or more, to avoid
back injury. Make sure all lifting equipment is in good condition and are in the
correct capacity. Be sure hooks are positioned correctly. Lifting eyes are not to be
side loaded during a lifting operation. Do not use the hammer's tools for lifting
objects.
