itself. This causes an erosion and the subsequent rupture of the tip. The breaking in these cases usually appears at the top of the hammer pin as a result F 1 of the idle strokes when the tip of the tool is separated from the rest of the hammer. CONSTANT
CORROSION Rust or corrosion on the tool occurs when the tool is stored outdoors and it is not well lubricated. F 1 This can be avoided by simple and easy lubrication and maintenance of hammer’s tool away from moisture when not in use.
in soft or light materials are called idle strokes. This happens when the piston does not stroke the hammer tool, and the impact force and energy is absorbed by bolts and the tool retaining screws and not by the F 1 tool itself. This causes an erosion and the subsequent rupture
