Operating the hydraulic attachment creates a loud noise.
Long term high sound pressure level can affect your
hearing.
uWear suitable hearing protection.
WARNING Lung disease
Dust may be generated when operating the hydraulic at-
tachment. If dust from rocks or silica dust, produced
when operating the hydraulic attachment on rocks, con-
crete, asphalt or other such materials, is inhaled this
may lead to silicosis (dust lungs, a severe lung disease).
Silicosis is a chronic disease which may lead cancer and
death.
uWear a suitable breathing mask.
2.15 Handling machines,
precautions
WARNING Narcotics, alcohol and drugs
Narcotics, alcohol and medicinal drugs make their users
less alert and affect their ability to concentrate. Negli-
gence and incorrectly assessing a situation can result in
serious injury or death.
uNever work on or with the hydraulic attachment when
under the influence of narcotics, alcohol or drugs
which affect your alertness.
uNever allow other people who are under the influ-
ence of narcotics, alcohol or drugs which affect their

uAny modification will result in immediate invalidation
of the operating licence.
2.18 Environmental pollution,
precautions
NOTICE Environmental pollution due to hydraulic oil
Hydraulic oil is permanently environmentally harmful. Es-
caped hydraulic oil will lead to groundwater and soil con-
tamination. Organisms may die.
uCollect any hydraulic oil which escapes to avoid envi-
ronmental pollution. For minor volumes use an ab-
sorbing medium (in case of an emergency use soil).
In case of major leakages contain the hydraulic oil. It
must not drain off and penetrate the ground or enter
the water table or water supplies.
uCollect contaminated absorbing medium or soil in a
watertight box/container and close it tight.

tering the percussion compartment (only on the
DPversion).
K. The working tool is retained in the lower breaker
part.
L. Pressure line »P«
M. The swivel joint covers protect the swivel joints.
N. The cylinder cover houses the nitrogen gas (N2)
filled piston accumulator and the control mechanism.
3.2 Function
The operation of a hydraulic breaker is described in a
greatly simplified version below:
The pressure line »P« supplies oil at the operating pres-
sure of the carrier to the hydraulic breaker. The tank line
»T« returns the oil to the tank of the carrier. The HP-ac-
cumulator compensates pressure variations in the hy-
draulic system.
The percussion piston moves up and down in the cylin-
der. When the percussion piston is in its lower position, it
impacts the working tool. The percussion energy is
transferred to the material to be broken via the working
tool.
