With the breaker tool in place on the material to be

Apply down force.

POSITIONING THE BREAKER TOOL ON

THE WORK MATERIAL
Position the tool bit near the edge of the work material,
not in the center or far from the edge. Position the tool 6
– 18 inches (depending on the material) from the edge.
Breaking off smaller pieces of rock or concrete usually
accomplishes more than trying to break larger pieces.
Apply down pressure.

Apply down force to the boom/dipper until the rear of the

backhoe is raised off the ground. Rear tires and stabiliz-
ers should be off the ground so the total rear weight of
the backhoe is on the breaker tool. The breaker is more
efficient when adequate down force is applied.

Break near the edge.

On flat material or rock, the breaker should be vertical

or “curled” back slightly to direct the impact force down-
ward and toward the backhoe. This directs the force
back toward the edge of the work material. If the tool
is positioned in the center of the work, or too far from
the edge, the energy will be absorbed into the material
without cracking it. Do not run the breaker longer than

 TROUBLESHOOTING

This section describes how to find and resolve problems users may experience. If a situation occurs that is not
covered, call your STANLEY Customer Service representative for assistance.

Inspecting the tool or installing parts with the hydraulic hoses connected can result in severe personal injury
or equipment damage. To prevent accidental startup, disconnect the hydraulic power before beginning any
inspection or installation task.

If symptoms of poor performance develop, the following chart can be used as a guide to correct the problem.
When diagnosing faults in operation of the tool, always check that the hydraulic power source is supplying the
correct hydraulic flow and pressure to the tool as listed in the table below. Use a flowmeter known to be accurate.
Check the flow with the hydraulic oil temperature at least 80 °F/27 °C.

 MAINTENANCE

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 fittings and hoses. Re-
place any defective hoses.
Apply grease to the grease fitting 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.

the work, thus causing the energy produced by the ham-
mer to be concentrated on the tool retainer(s) and the
retainer slot(s) on the tool itself. Caution should be used
to prevent the hammer from sliding off slanted surfaces
or when breaking through thin material.
The illustration below is typical of the kind of breakage
that occurs from excessive blank firing.

WORN-OUT FRONT BUSHING(S) OR

RETAINER PIN(S)
Worn-out front bushing(s) will cause the tool to become
misaligned inside the hammer. This misalignment will
cause uneven contact between the piston and tool, thus
causing stress to concentrate on one particular area of
the tool. This can also cause the tool to bind inside the
hammer. Call your dealer for acceptable wear allow-
ances.
Worn-out retainer pin(s) will cause uneven loading on
the pin(s) themselves, causing failure of the tool or re-
tainer pin(s). This will also cause excessive wear to the
front bushing(s).

 PROPER CARE OF TOOL BITS

In its most extreme forms, the combination of surface

damage and severe bending can quickly break even the
best working steels.
The illustrations below show examples of severe stress
breaks.

CORROSION
Tools should be greased and stored out of the weather.
Corrosion tends to accelerate the fatigue fractures of the
tool.
MUSHROOMING

As the next illustration shows, fatigue failures take many

forms, but they all exhibit similar features. Generally, the
broken surface is brittle and has a “lip” like that in the
bending failure, even though, in some cases, the lip has
been broken.

• Failures in this area are usually the result
of heat build-up, mushrooming, or improp-

As a rule, working steel failures can be diagnosed by

looking at the break itself, and at the place on the steel
where the break occurred. Discoloration, like “rainbow”
effects or blue bands, is the result of extreme heat.
Look for surface cracks, galling, or gouge marks. Breaks
that start as surface damage have a “sea shell” pattern,
with the damaged spot at the center. A large “sea shell”
indicates a slow growing break; a small one indicates
one compounded by side stress.
Stress failures start small, and spread into the center
of the steel. In a stress failure, the coarser the grain,
the greater the stress was, and the more rapid was the
failure.

 PROPER CARE OF TOOL BITS

STANLEY Breakers are available with several different

types of tool bits. The most common are the conical,
chisel and the blunt. Each of these working steels has
its own purpose as described below:
To obtain the maximum production from the breaker, it
is important to select the proper working steel. Consult
your STANLEY representative for assistance in select-
ing the proper working steel for your application.

CONICAL
This is by far the most popular
working steel. It is a general
purpose point used to break
anything from concrete to hard
rock. Its pencil-type point is
used to fracture the material.
The tool is best where penetra-
tion speed is important.

CHISEL
This style of point is used gen-
erally used for trench work,
where a controlled break is re-
quired, and for rock breaking
on materials with a definite line
of cleavage. A chisel bit also
works well in softer concretes
where a moil might penetrate
quickly, but not cause a frac-
ture line.

BLUNT
This flat type of point is used to
break softer material such as
coal or shale. A moil or chisel
will tend to punch holes in this
type of material, where a flat
blunt will shatter the material.
It is also useful when break-
ing irregularly shaped material
where its broad tip makes it
easier to position.

 DEFINITION OF TERMS

Tool: The hydraulic attachment that the auxiliary circuit is intended to power. These
may include hydraulic breakers, compactors, shears, etc.

Operating Pressure: That pressure at which the tool will naturally operate without influence of out-
side pressure relief mechanisms. This pressure is an operating characteristic
of the tool and cannot be altered by the end user without changing the tool
design.

Relief Pressure: The relief pressure is that pressure at which the circuit will dump fluid in order
to protect itself from damage.

Back Pressure: The pressure at the tool’s connection to the return circuit of the carrier.

Flow Meter: Instrument for testing the operating characteristics of a hydraulic circuit. The
data usually available from this device are pressure (psi/bar), flow (gpm/lpm)
and temperature (°F/°C).

Restrictor Valve: A valve on the flow meter which allows the user to simulate an operating tool
by adding a pressure load (through restriction) to the circuit. This feature is
used to evaluate relief settings and flow ratings at pressure.

V60/V65/V100 Valves: A priority flow control valve manufactured by STANLEY. Allows for optimum
operation of any attachment by providing the proper amount of flow for opera-
tion of the tool the “priority” aspect allows the attachment to function properly
if another control function is activated.

Inlet Flow: The hydraulic oil supplied to the IN port of the tool or valve.

Regulated Flow: The flow of oil supplied to the tool by the V60/V100 valve.

By-Pass Flow: The oil flow that is supplied by the carriers pump, but not used in the opera-
tion of the attachment. By-pass flow equals inlet flow (to the valve) minus the
regulated flow.

Pressure Line: The hydraulic line(s) that supply pressurized oil from the pump to the valve or
tool.

Return Line: The hydraulic line that connects the OUT port of the tool to the tank circuit of
the carrier.

Cracking Pressure: The pressure at which the relief valve starts to open. Can be seen by a drop in
the flow rate as shown by the flow meter.

Full Open Pressure: The pressure at which the relief valve is completely open dumping all system
flow to the tank.

Ambient Air Temperature: The temperature of the outside air.

Stabilized Temperature: The temperature at which the carrier hydraulic system temperature will stop
rising during testing or operation.
