It can be also used for primary breaking, tunnelling and removal of metallurgical slag.
Page 28
Operation 9033E HD PRINCIPLES OF BREAKING To increase the hammer's working life, pay particular attention to correct working methods and how to choose the correct tool for the job. There are essentially two ways of breaking with a hydraulic hammer.
Page 29
9033E HD Operation CHOOSING TOOLS A selection of standard and special tools to suit each application are available. The correct type of tool must be selected to get the best possible working results and longest life time for the tool. Choosing the best tool type for an application may require some testing, please consult with your local dealer.
Page 30
Operation 9033E HD Idle Blow Protection ON (factory setting) It is recommended that you keep Idle Blow Protection on during normal hammer work. In the ON position, Idle Blow Protection is activated to prevent idle strokes. See illustration 1. Note: When Idle Blow Protection is on, the hammer can be started only after pressing the tool against an object.
Page 31
9033E HD Operation TURNING IDLE BLOW PROTECTION ON AND OFF 1. Remove the shield plate. 2. To turn Idle Blow Protection on, turn the valve clockwise with a hexagon wrench so that the arrow points to ON. To turn it off, turn to valve counterclockwise so that the arrow points to OFF.
Page 32
Operation 9033E HD STROKE SELECTOR Long piston stroke mode (factory setting) Long piston strokes give the hammer high impact energy. Set the stroke selector to long stroke mode (LONG) when breaking hard rock (impact breaking). See illustration 1. R010574 Short piston stroke mode Short piston strokes give the hammer a high impact rate.
Page 33
9033E HD Operation SELECTING STROKE MODE 1. Remove the shield plate. 2. To select long stroke mode, turn the stroke selector screw counter-clockwise to the LONG position. To select short stroke mode, turn it clockwise to the SHORT position. See the illustration.
Operation 9033E HD 5.2 DAILY OPERATION GENERAL GUIDELINES A safety screen is recommended to protect the operator from flying debris. Keep the cabin windows and doors closed during operation. Keep the tool at a 90 degree angle at all times. If the object moves or its surface breaks, correct the angle immediately.
Page 35
9033E HD Operation To use the hammer most efficiently when breaking large objects, concentrate on small steps from the outer edge towards the middle. Do not strike in one spot for more than 15 seconds at a time. If the object does not break, or if the tool does not penetrate, stop the hammer and change the position of the tool.
Page 36
Operation 9033E HD When demolishing vertical structures (such as brick walls), place the tool against the wall at a 90 degree angle. When breaking concrete, hard or frozen ground, never strike and pry with the tool at the same time. The tool may break. Bending may be caused by stones inside hard or frozen ground.
Page 37
9033E HD Operation Do not use the hammer to sweep the ground of debris. This may damage the hammer and the housing will wear out more quickly. When operating the hammer, make sure that it does not make contact with the carrier boom or hydraulic lines.
Page 38
Operation 9033E HD Do not operate the hammer with the carrier's boom, stick or bucket cylinders at the end of their stroke (either fully extended or fully retracted). Damage to the carrier may result. Do not use the hammer or hammer tools for lifting. Lifting eyes on the hammer are for storage and maintenance purposes only.
9033E HD Operation WORKING PROCEDURE Warning! Protect yourself and your neighbourhood against flying chips of rock. Do not operate the hammer or carrier if someone is too close to the hammer. Do not use the hammer, as a standard assembly, under water. If water fills the space where the piston strikes the tool, this generates a strong pressure wave that may damage the hammer.
Page 40
Operation 9033E HD 4. Use the excavator boom to press the hammer firmly against the object. Do not pry the hammer with the boom. Do not press too hard or too gently with the boom. The correct force is applied, when the tracks start to lift slightly from the ground.
Page 41
9033E HD Operation 5. Place the tool against the object at a 90 degree angle. Avoid small irregularities on the object which will break easily and cause either idle strokes or an incorrect working angle. 6. Start the hammer. 7. Stop the hammer quickly. Do not allow the hammer to fall down and make idle strokes when an object breaks.
Operation 9033E HD 5.3 MOUNTING AND DISMOUNTING THE HAMMER REMOVAL FROM CARRIER Warning! The hammer must be secured from rolling over when disconnecting from the carrier. Only use a skilled operator to position the carrier for hammer removal! Warning! Hydraulic pressure inside the hammer must always be released...
