Introduction: The breaker hammer is a major "consumable" in engineering, operating in extremely harsh working environments. However, many users "only use and neglect to maintain" it, leading to a sharp decrease in its lifespan, frequent malfunctions, and high maintenance costs. Scientific and reasonable maintenance can effectively extend the service life of the breaker hammer by more than 30%. This article provides you with a detailed maintenance checklist and troubleshooting guide, ensuring that your "iron fist" always remains in optimal condition.

1. Daily maintenance: Simple three steps, get twice the result with half the effort

"Three inspections" before starting work:

Check bolts and nuts: tighten the bolts on the shell, clamping plate, and pipeline joints to prevent structural damage or oil leakage caused by looseness.

Check lubrication: Apply a sufficient amount of butter between the drill rod and the bushing (it is recommended to do so every 2 hours). This is the most crucial step to reduce wear and tear on the drill rod and bushing.

Check nitrogen pressure: Regularly (e.g. weekly) check the nitrogen pressure of the accumulator to ensure it is within the specified range (usually 60%-80% of the working pressure). Insufficient pressure can lead to weak striking force and damage to the cylinder.

"Two attentions" in work:

Pay attention to the correct striking posture: keep the rod perpendicular to the striking surface, and avoid "side strikes" or "hanging strikes", as these can seriously damage the piston and rod.

Pay attention to continuous lubrication: During prolonged continuous operation, don't forget to regularly add grease.

"Cleaning after shutdown":

Clean the debris and soil from the shell of the breaker hammer and the tool rod, especially from the piston cylinder cover, to prevent impurities from entering the hydraulic system.

II. Regular maintenance: deep maintenance, taking preventive measures

Every 100-500 working hours: replace the hydraulic oil return filter element. The breaking hammer generates a large amount of metal debris, which can easily clog the filter element.

Every 500-1000 working hours: conduct a comprehensive inspection of all vulnerable parts, such as seals, bushings, flat pins, etc., and replace them if necessary.

When storing: If it is not to be used for an extended period, clean it thoroughly, push the piston to the middle of the cylinder, apply anti-rust oil, and store it in a dry place.

Conclusion: "Seven parts maintenance, three parts repair." Integrating maintenance into daily operating habits can not only avoid unexpected failures that delay the work schedule, but also save you a significant amount of maintenance costs. Investing a few minutes in maintenance will pay off in multiple times the work efficiency and equipment lifespan.
