1 Tri-Suspension System – This unique suspension system

on the silenced models comprises the suspension
1A
jacket, the upper and lower buffers. Suspension aligns
the power cell and gives manageable, smooth performance.
1A
Upper & Lower Buffers – Buffers at both ends of the 4E
power cell absorb reflective forces, isolating them from
the machine. Result is quiet, reliable operation and
reduced operator fatigue. 4B

1B Suspension Jacket – The front head is isolated by the 3

two-piece suspension jacket, which dampens vibration
and sound. A lower dBa allows the hammer to be used in 4D
urban and other noise restricted areas.
2 Auto Shut Off (ASO) – Instantly stops the piston when breaking 4A
through material. Prevents blank firing, a key contributor to
hammer wear. Internal stresses are reduced, providing more
productive hours of work. Hammer is protected, regardless of
operator skill level. 2
3 Plug & Perform – Designed for convenient installation on Cat 1B
machines.
3A
Ports positioned for hose protection – Improved routing
eliminates downtime from breakage.
3B 4C
No adjustment necessary for hydraulic pressures or
flows. Hammer handles full auxiliary flow and pressure,
automatically adjusting to match your Cat machine. Hammer
1A
over speeding and shortened service are prevented.
4 Simple, Elegant Design – 47% fewer parts (compared to previous
models) provides quick, easy maintenance and service.
4A
Single Piece Piston Sleeve replaces easily.
4B
Easy-to-remove Seal Carrier provides maximum gas retention and
reliable performance. New design incorporates innovative technology,
with five gas retention seals on the power chamber.
4C
Single Bushing Design is slip fit and field-replaceable. One piece provides
proper tool alignment (includes lower and upper bushing and thrust ring).
4D
Integral Accumulator on H55E/Es and H65E/Es provides additional protection for the machine's
hydraulic system.
4E
Valve Body & Front Head – Power cell is efficiently designed, with only two major components.
They are held together by head bolts rather than tie rods. Bolts are simpler to install and service.
