PREFACE
The perfect match of hydraulic breaker to carrier is essential in order to guarantee the correct
working conditions. However, in order to obtain maximum efficiency, it is strongly recommended
that regular and appropriate maintenance be performed.
Every attempt has been made to insure accuracy of the information provided. However, the
manufacturer reserves the right to update this manual subject to the technological development
of the product and service. For the most current information, a review of the Product Support
Bulletins is recommended prior to any breaker repair.

Note: During these test, be certain that the carriers hydraulic fluid is at operating temperature,
usually 130 F to 170 F. This will insure that the attachment will operate at optimum
performance. Also, if the carrier has any hydraulic problems, they should appear during testing
procedures.
BEFORE YOU HOOK UP THE HOSES TO THE ATTACHMENT:
1. Install attachment hydraulic circuit on the carrier.

2. Connect a flow meter (Figure 01-03) to the circuits pressure line into the meters inlet and
the return side into the meter outlet. Also, install a 600 psi gauge into the return circuit at the
flow meter. (This will allow for a starting point for the back pressure of the return circuit.
Refer to the Operators Manual for the specifications on the attachment you are installing.)
PPM2000000
Version: 102700
3. Before engaging the circuit, be certain the pressure regulating valve on the flow meter
(Figure 01-03) is in the fully open position.
4. Start the carrier unit and check for hydraulic leaks. Check and note the flow and back
pressure readings at the meter.
5. Increase engine RPM while a second person is monitoring the pressure and flow at the
meter. If the back pressure reading goes above specifications the cause must be
determined before proceeding. You may need to rework the return circuit to reduce the back
pressure to INDECO specifications. (Contact the Product Support department at (203)3777791 for assistance if required.)
6. Adjust the circuits flow to the required specification. (NOTE: It is better to be 5-10% under
the required GPM then to be over.)
7. Bring the pressure on the flow meter up to the high pressure reading for the attachment you
are installing. Check to assure that the correct GPMs are maintained and adjust if needed.
8. Once the GPMs, operating pressure and back pressure are within specification check the
attachment circuit relief. This setting must be at least 500 psi above the Attachments
operating pressure. (Be certain the GPM reading remains the same as in the above steps.)
9. Install the breaker and connect a 0-3000 psi gauge into the inlet port of the attachment.
(There is a 19 mm plug in the upper link which is the pressure circuit.) Connect a 0-600 psi
gauge into the attachments return line. (There is a 19 mm plug in the lower link which is the
attachments return line.) You can use a BSPP 04 Fitting (British Standard Parallel Pipe)
10. Before operating the breaker, verify that the tool and bushings have been properly
lubricated. Verify that the hose can move freely and are not rubbing against any other parts.
11. Place the breaker on a hard, compact surface and, with shut off (if so equipped) turn on, run
the breaker at low Rpms. Gradually increase rpms to the maximum. Operating pressure
and return (back) pressure must remain within specifications in order for the attachment to
operate at maximum efficiency (See Appendix A, Breaker Technical and Torque
Specifications - Page 96 for the correct specification). Run the breaker until the hydraulic oil
is at operating temperature and again note the pressure readings.
Note: The breaker should be fast during the initial stages. As the tool penetrates the material
the breaker should slow to a rhythm close to the minimum blows per minute.
12. If readings are not within this range please refer to the trouble shooting and problem
diagnosis section of this manual.
13. Record the readings taken during the installation procedures on the Attachment Delivery
Report (ADR) (Figure 01-05). This report must be on file with INDECO before any
warranty consideration can be given.
PPM2000000
Version: 102700
The performance and reliability of any hydraulic attachment are directly related to the proper
operation, maintenance, installation and adjustment. For this reason it is imperative that
pressures and flows are verified each time an attachment is installed on a different carrier. The
customer should be advised of the correct operation and maintenance procedures. The ADR
should be used as a checklist for each delivery of an INDECO attachment. A small investment
of time to check these readings will save maintenance and repair costs and increase customer
satisfaction by offering trouble free, productive performance.
Note: The fittings needed to test the operating and return pressures, on all INDECO Breakers
Model MES 621 HD and larger, are 4 Male BSPP x 4 JIC (See Position #403 on the parts
break down). These fittings are available through the parts department by ordering part number
HF9002-0404.

General Breaker Usage
GENERAL BREAKER USAGE

This hydraulic demolition hammer, as a general rule, should be used with the same technique
as a jackhammer. Choose the appropriate tool in order to obtain maximum productivity. The
profile of the tool should be chosen according to the nature of the material, depending on the
type of job: quarry, earth moving, trench work, tunnels, demolition, etc.
a) Position the carrier so that the reach to the work is adequate. Ensure that the carrier is in a
stable position and is not placed on a crumbling or slipping surface during operation. (Figure
02-01) This guarantees a constant load on the hammer.
Figure 02-01: Position Carrier Correctly

b) Place the hammer tool perpendicular to the surface to be broken. (Figure 02-02) Always act
with the carrier arm, keeping the hammer perpendicular to the work and describing a slight
arc, closing the arm towards the operator. This method of operation will dramatically extend
the life of the tool and bushing.
Figure 02-02: Keep Tool Perpendicular to Working Surface
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
12
c) Maintaining an even pressure from the carrier to the hammer, start the hammer. If the
downward pressure from the boom is too weak, you will hear metallic (rather than sharp)
strokes, because the hammer is not striking the tool correctly. If the downward pressure is
excessive, it will produce strong vibrations in the carrier and the tool, retaining axle,
bushings, etc. (Figure 02-03)
Figure 02-03: Maintain Even Working Pressure

d) If the hammer is in the correct position, and the hammer and case are vibrating (Figure 0204), the downward pressure from the carrier is insufficient. If exerting further pressure from
the carrier does not solve the problem, it may be that internal hydraulic leaks from the rams
or valves may not be allowing the carrier to exert the correct amount of pressure. In this
case, replace the carrier cylinder seals and/or check the control valve seals.
Figure 02-04: Insufficient Downward Pressure Results in Vibrations
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
13
e) If vibrations start to occur after the hammer has been operative for some time, this means
that the carrier downward pressure has not followed the tool penetration. You must maintain
a constant pressure from the carrier on the hammer, as the hammer is penetrating the work.
f) An INDECO hammer senses the strength and density of the surface being broken, and
adjusts hammer impact power accordingly. The operator will be able to hear the difference
in the blows when a rock is broken or not broken. The hammer rhythm will be fast and sharp
if the material is frail and flaky; slow and powerful if the rock is compact and uniform. Impact
speed will also be slower the deeper the hammer penetrates.
g) As soon as cracks start to appear in the material being worked on, and the tool starts to
appear from the bushing, stop the hammer at once. Do not raise the hammer from the
material until it has stopped completely.
h) If cracks in the material do not appear in 30 seconds, move to a new position along the
grain of the material (Figure 02-05), perhaps working on a smaller section or edge of the
material. Always look for advantageous weak points in the material (e.g. cracks, bumps,
veins) at which to start. This saves undue stress on the breaker.
Figure 02-05: Reposition Breaker Every 30 Seconds

i)
In a quarry, or when breaking oversized rocks, position the material to be broken on a hard
base to minimize vibrations of the material.
j)
In the case of horizontal or upside-down operations (e.g. tunnels), once every hour the
operator should lower the hammer to a vertical position (Figure 02-06), so that any particles
of rock which have collected in the hammer can fall out. (Operator can alternate hammering
up and down.) If this is not done, the hammer impact will be wasted on the rock particles,
and in addition will create thermal energy in the particles and hammer, causing overheating.
Prolonged overheating will cause the hammer materials to lose their original mechanical
resistance. In order to keep particles out of the hammer, an air hose may be installed in the
same way as would be done for underwater usage.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700

Figure 02-06: Lower Breaker Every Hour When Working Overhead

k) If the breaker is operating at temperatures below -15 Celsius, increase the nitrogen charge
pressure by 20% of the value recommended in normal
conditions. Disassemble the tool and store it in a place where the
temperature is above 0 Celsius. DO NOT heat up the tool with a
torch or other device before operation. Operate the tool slowly for
the first 15 feet of excavation in order to gradually warm up the
tool. Never leave the tool exposed to inclement weather, as this
will oxidate the bushing contact area.
l)
The hydraulic oil feed viscosity must not be below 15 CST. The
maximum oil temperature during operation should not exceed
75 Celsius (160 Fahrenheit).
m) When the hammer is not in use, it must be kept in a vertical

position. (Figure 02-07) This will allow any water or condensation
to run off of the piston and prevent rusting which may cause seal
failure and leakage.
SUMMARY OF INSTRUCTIONS
a)
b)
c)
d)
Maintain even pressure on the hammer.

Follow the hammer during penetration of the material.
Always maintain a constant optimal pressure level.
Correct loading ensures hammer productivity and avoids damage to
its component.

Common Causes of Breaker Damage
COMMON CAUSES OF BREAKER DAMAGE

a) The hammer must not be used as a ripper, nor should it be used as a lever. Under no
circumstances should the tool be used as a hook to lift weights. (Figure 03-01) This could
cause serious damage to the tool, the bushing and the housing.
Figure 03-01: Dont Use Breaker as a Ripper, Lever or Crane

b) The hammer must operate perpendicular to the work. This ensures that: the tools are not
forcibly stressed; bending stress does not occur; and the specific pressures in the contact
areas are maintained. This will greatly extend the life of the tool and the bushings.
c) Check that the tool contact areas
(especially the chuck housing) are
well
lubricated and smooth. A
properly lubricated tool will show
streaks of grease below the lower
bushing on the tool shank. Remove any
bumps or rough areas with a soft
grinding wheel and wire brush. The
point of a chisel tool can be resharpened in the same way. Tools
should be rotated 180 to evenly
distribute the wear.
d) The hammer must be free to operate
without any obstructions, chafing or
interference. (Figure 03-02) There
should also be no obstruction between
the hammer and the tool.
Figure 03-02: Operate Breaker Free and

Clear of Obstructions
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
16
e) When breaking large blocks of rock, any

protrusions should be broken off first, in order to
reduce the overall size of the block.
f) For secondary demolition, before starting the
hammer, adjust the material to be broken so that
it is on a hard, stable surface. (Figure 03-03)
g) A small pocket of rock dust can sometimes occur
in the well formed by the tool. (Figure 03-04)
The hammer impact may be released on this,
therefore not breaking the rock. The tool will then
overheat and may deform. The solutions to this
are either to make another parallel hole nearby,
or to carry out small movements of the hammer
to disburse the rock dust. Do not continue in the
same spot. This will waste the hydraulic power
and damage the tool.
h) When using the hammers in these positions, the
tool should be removed every 8 hours, and the
internal faces of the bush cleaned with a wire
brush or lubricant cleaner. (Figure 03-05) If the
hammer is very full of rock particles, remove the
appropriate plug from the side of the chuck
housing, and blow out the hammer with
compressed air.

Stable Working Surface

PPM2000000 Version: 102700
17
Figure 03-05: Remove Tool and Clean Breaker Every Eight Hours
h) Do not use the tool of the hammer to rotate the carrier. This causes superficial cuts on the
contact areas which could cause breakage under stress.

Routine Maintenance
ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
Daily
Grease breaker every 2 hours. If working in very dusty conditions, grease each hour.
Check cradle, side shocks and side bolts for loose, cracked or missing bolts.
Check tightness of tool retainers, locking bolts and under water plug (POS 107)
Examine hydraulic hoses for leaking or chaffing.
Visually inspect breaker for housing or side plate damage.
Weekly
Remove tool and wash out tool cavity with solvent.

Inspect upper and lower bushings, retaining axles and face of piston for cracks, uneven
wear or mushrooming.
Before inserting tool, re-apply grease to upper, lower bushings, and retaining axles.
Re-insert greased tool after rotating 180 degrees from original position and secure retaining
axles.
Measure length of tool. If too short, replace to prevent damage to breaker bushing and
housing (Maximum Wear is 50% of exposed portion of tool when new) .
500 HOURS
Check accumulator charge. Refer to INDECO specification for correct charge.

Measure wear of lower and upper bushing.
Rotate retaining axles 180 degree or replace if worn.
Verify carrier hydraulic flow and pressure to initial specifications.
1000 Hours
Complete weekly and 500 hour inspection procedures

Replace all rubber and polypack internal seals
Inspect piston for scouring, cracks or other related damage
Inspect spacer while piston is out and replace if needed.
Inspect tie rods for stress in thread are. Die penatrant magnaflux is recommend.
Replace rods as a complete set.
Check the breakers condition and replace all worn components.
Check all hydraulic tubes and hoses and replace if worn or damaged.
Check the upper and side shock absorbers (Positions 601 and 602). Replace if necessary
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
19
Breaker Lubrication
It is essential to lubricate the tool using the grease chart below as a guideline. If working in
dusty conditions, the tool should be greased even more frequently (See the individual operators
manuals for proper greasing points). The tool should also be removed weekly and the cavity
cleaned and packed with new grease. The tool must always have grease on the hammer
contact area. YOU CAN SAVE TIME AND ENERGY BY USING AN INDECO POWER LUBE
SYSTEM TO AUTOMATICALLY CARRY OUT THIS FUNCTION.
* ATTENTION *
INDECO GREASING REQUIREMENTS

WARNING !!! A coating of grease must be maintained
between the tool and the bushing of the breaker in order to
avoid damage and eventual failure of the breaker.
The amount of grease necessary to maintain
proper lubrication of the tool varies with conditions.
It is the responsibility of the Operator to
monitor the amount of grease on the tool.
When raising the breaker,
the portion of the tool
CHECK FOR
extending from the breaker GREASE HERE
should always show grease!

Checking and Adjusting HD Casing to Breaker Clearance

1. Position the Breaker horizontally on a level working surface.
2. Install a dial indicator on top of the case above the cut-out for the retaining axles.
3. Advance the contact point of the dial indicator through the cut-out until it contacts the
Retaining Axles (Position 108).
Note: The dial indicator should be in the middle of its range.
4. Using a suitable pry bar, pry the Chuck

Housing down towards the bottom of the
Breaker Case and zero the dial indicator.
5. Pry the Chuck Housing up towards the top of

the Breaker Case and record the reading.
(Figure 04-11) If the reading is 1.5 mm
(0.0600 or less, the Breaker to Case
clearance is within specification.
6. If the reading is greater than 1.5 mm (0.060)

the Breaker will need to be removed from the
Case and re-shimmed. (See Removing the
Mounting Bracket and Breaker Case Section 7 Page 44).
7. Fabricate a Spacing tool using electrical

conduit. (See Table 04-02 for the correct tool
dimensions)

8. Add or install Shims as required to achieve the proper clearance between the Breaker and
the Case. Install the Wear Blocks into the Breaker Case and insert the Spacing Tool
between the Wear Blocks and Shims. (Figure 04-11 and Figure 04-12)
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
22
Note: To center the Breaker in the Case, an equal amount of shims should be installed under
each Wear Block.

9. Remove the Grease Fitting (Position 621) and install a 3/8 - 16 bolt through the passage
into the Wear Blocks. (Figure 04-13) This will hold the Wear Blocks and Shim pack in
position during the Breaker installation.
10. Install the Breaker into the Case and remeasure the clearance as previously described.
(See Assembly of Breaker Case - Section 8 Page 68 )
PPM2000000 Version: 102700

Lower Bushing and Insert Inspection

1. Remove the tool (See Tool Replacement - Section 5 Page 30) and clean the inside of the
Chuck Bushing (Position 102) or the Insert (Position 153).
2. Measure the inside diameter of the Lower Bushing

or Insert, using an inside measuring device (I.E.
caliper, telescoping gauge or inside micrometer)
with a .001 graduation. (Compare these
measurements to Chart in Appendix D on Page
121).
Note: The greatest amount of wear normally occurs
from front to back.
3. If the Chuck Bushing (Position 102) or the Insert

Holder (Position 152) needs replacement it is
recommended to remove the Breakers Chuck
Housing and remove the Chuck Bushing with a
hydraulic press. (See Disassembly of the Chuck
Housing - Section 7 Page 51).
Figure 04-14: Measuring the Lower

Chuck Bushing or Insert for Wear
4. To replace the Insert (Position 153), remove the circlip (Position 154) and insert bushing
(Position 153) and clean the insert holder (Position 152) (Figure 04-15 and Figure 04-16)
Note: If the insert bushing is steel and it does not slide out of the holder, the bushing will need
to be cut.
Note: SUGGESTED PROCEDURE - Protect the upper portion of housing (Position 101), upper
bushing (Position 104), spacer (Position 105) and piston (Position 309). Relieve insert by cutting
a slot lengthwise, using a right angle (90) die grinder with cut-off wheel. Caution: Be careful
not to cut insert holder. Remove insert. Optional removal - use a universal sleeve puller with
slide hammer to remove insert (See figure 04-17).

Breaker Tools
Tool Selection
Choose the most suitable tool for the operation required. (Figure 05-01) For the breaking of
boulders, use MOIL or OLGIVE points. In restricted areas, such as ENCHES, use CHISEL
points and proceed in-line with the work face. In particularly narrow places, progress gradually,
through small sections of material, making the most of the regularity of the striking frequency.
Keep the front of the hammer parallel to the operator, with the machine arm drawn up. This will
avoid damage to the tool, especially during cutting and squaring.

Tool Breakage Analysis

Description of Typical Stress
In order to understand the complexity of the stress phenomena that results in tool breakage,
some general information needs to be addressed. The tool is considered an elastic element
designed to transmit shock or kinetic energy from the hammer piston to the material to be
demolished.
The typical tool break starts as a small fracture in the surface of the tool that is the most
stressed area. Eventually a surface crack is created from: micro-welds from surface work
hardening; localized heating and cooling on the tool surface; and tension and compression
on opposite sides of the tool. The surface crack then grows in a series of concentric rings
until the section weakens and can no longer support the stresses imposed. Complete failure
occurs at this time.
Stress per blow is not as critical as the frequency of blows. The stress level in the tool
becomes more critical with higher blows per minute and changes in the blows per minute.
For the same phenomena, longer tools at equal energy and frequency bear more stress
than shorter ones.
Breakers working at higher frequencies must be lubricated more often due to the abovementioned stress on the tool as well as the thermal damage created by the friction of the
tool and lower bushing.
Matching a small breaker to a carrier larger than hammer specification creates high stress
conditions on the tool.
Operators are not always skillful in using the breaker. Visibility problems, site conditions and
the use of the point to move materials can set up surface fractures in the tool. Breakage
may not occur immediately but the conditions are now in place for a future failure.
Method to Reduce These Effects & Increase Tool Life
To drastically reduce the undesirable stresses on the tool, the breaker should be positioned
perpendicular to the material to be worked. Slight arching-in of the hammer toward the
operator while firing and following the progression of the tool into the material will deliver
uniform pressure on the bushing in the contact areas. This will also allow the lubricating
grease to flow around and cool the tool, thus avoiding seizures, micro-welding, and the
creation of localized hot spots detrimental to the heat-treating of the tool.
All attempts must be made to eliminate prying with the tool or moving the carrier while the
weight is on the tool. Do not pivot the carrier on the tool!
Overheating of the tool should be avoided on the point or chisel end. This occurs when the
tool works in an area longer than 30 seconds, creating a dust pocket between the tool and
hard material.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
26
The tool should be constantly lubricated with INDECO Supreme 1000 grease. You can
never over-grease the lower end of the breaker!! Attention to this fact will add longevity to
your tool and bushing life.

Typical Tool Failures

Misalignment or Pry Break
(Figure 05-02)
The bending stress exceeds the materials strength and the
tool snaps. Caused by working at an incorrect angle or using
the tool for mechanical leverage. The failure usually occurs
near the tool bushings front face. This failure can also be
caused by the breaker slipping while hammering at angles
not perpendicular to the surface of the material being broken.
The failure type is a brittle type and typically has a lip
Figure 05-02: Misalignment
formation.
Break
Seizing in the Tool Bushing

(Figure 05-03)
Strong side loading and striking the tool at the same time
causes the tool and bushing surface to be damaged. This
failure is cause by incorrect or insufficient lubrication. The
failure generally occurs in the front tool bushing area. The
failure type is a fatigue fracture starting at the surface of the
tool.
Figure 05-03: Tool Seized in
Bushing
Blank or Dry Firing

(Figure 05-04)
Occurs when the working end of the tool is not in proper
contact with the material being broken. The failure can also
occur when breaking through the material and the breaker
strikes the tool a last time. When struck without resistance at
the working end the tool , the tool stops abruptly when it is
stopped by the retainers instead of the material. This results
in breaking and deformation in the retaining groove.
Figure 05-04:
Firing
Blank or Dry
Mechanical Damage on the Tools Surface

(Figure 05-05)
This is caused by heavy scratching on the tools surface. The
failure usually occurs outside the tool bushing. The failure is
generally a fatigue type fracture.
Figure 05-05: Mechanical

Damage on Tools Surface
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
28
Cold Fracture
(Figure 05-06)
Cold temperatures can cause the tool to become brittle and
break. This failure can be avoided by warming the tool when
working in cold temperatures.
Figure 05-06: Cool Fractured

Tool
Break at Retaining Groove

(Figure 05-07)
This failure is a result of using a tool with worn or damaged
retainers. Any time a tool is replaced the tool retainers should
be inspected for wear and replaced if worn or damaged.
Figure 05-07: Tool Retaining

Groove Break
Breaking of Chisel Tip

(Figure 05-08)
This failure is caused by the improper contact between the
tool and the material being broken.
Figure 05-08: Broken Chisel

Tip
Mushrooming of Tip
(Figure 05-09)
This failure is caused by hammering too long without
penetration of the material. This generates extreme heat and
softens the tools materials which then mushrooms. Once a
tool has been overheated, the properties of the tools
materials are permanently altered. This change of properties
can then lead to premature failure of the tool. This damage
can be prevented by proper lubrication and operation.

Tool Replacement
Note: Models MES 181-553 have round retaining axles
a) In order to install the tool, insure that the retaining axles (Position 108) are not in their
locked position. (Figure 05-09)
Figure 05-09: Check and Unlock Retaining Axles

b) With the aid of a screw driver or similar instrument, push down the lock bolt located on the
side of the hammer (Position 109). Turn it 180 to its resting position. (Figure 05-10). Unlock
counter clock wise and lock clock wise.
Note: Newer lock bolts only turn in one direction.
Note: On 181 and 200 Series Breakers above Serial Number 14028, 300 Series Breakers
above Serial Number 21344 and 500 Series Breakers above serial number 21723 lock bolts are
no longer used. The retaining axles are held in with slotted pins and require a hammer and a
punch to drive the pin (Position 103) out of the chuck housing.

c) With a screwdriver or tool, push the retaining axle out from the opposite side. (Figure 05-11)
Repeat the operation on the second retaining axle. Remove the tool.
Caution the tool may be hot if the breaker was just being used.
Figure 05-11: Push Retaining Axle Out

c) Grease the new tool well. Insure the cavity is clean and the bush is lubricated. Slide it in so
that the side notches are in line with the axle slots and push in snugly. (Figure 05-12)
Figure 05-12: Grease New Tool And Align

d) Slide in the retaining axles with the indents facing the front of the hammer. Push in snugly
and turn the lock bolt 180 to secure the retaining axle.
Note: For MES 121 and MES 151 follow the above instructions using just one screw driver to
push the retaining axle out.
Note: Breaker Models MES 601 and larger use a spring-loaded locking pin to lock the
retaining axles into place. Two screw drivers are required for these models. Take the first screw
driver and push the pin from the housing side into the recess. Use the second screw driver to
push the retaining axle out from the opposite side of the breaker.

VI.
Accumulator Removal and Rebuilding
Safety Instructions
Before working on the Accumulator, PLEASE read the following

safety procedures thoroughly. If you have any questions, consult
your INDECO dealer or INDECO N.A.
Warnings
Compressed gases, by their nature, are hazardous. They are capable of creating environments
that are oxygen deficient, flammable or explosive. Death has occurred during a routine repair
on a carrier when a nitrogen-charged canister on the carrier exploded as it was being
disassembled.
Nitrogen, which is present in our atmosphere, can still displace the oxygen in a room or
enclosure and cause suffocation.
Never deliberately breathe, or allow others to breathe, any compressed gas of any type. It is
possible to deplete the oxygen in the bloodstream and cause rapid suffocation and DEATH.
Always wear proper clothing for the job. Protective clothing, safety shoes and leather gloves
should be worn, in addition to the required helmet or other protective gear. Any time
compressed gases are handled, safety glasses should be worn.
Keep a fire extinguisher close at hand. Situate flammable gas cylinders in a location so that if a
fire does occur, it may be easily extinguished. In some cases, it may be better to evacuate the
area and let the cylinder burn, especially if escaping gas could collect and explode.
Never attempt to adapt fittings from one device or cylinder to another. Fittings or hoses may not
be compatible with the gas products and may fail violently. Gases should never be transferred
from one cylinder to another. The rate of flow of the gas itself may be sufficient to cause an
explosion.
Check valves are an important safety feature, but dont rely on them 100% to prevent a
backflow condition. Always open the cylinder slowly Purge the regulator and hoses by
allowing a small amount of gas to pass through the system.
Potential Hazards
Fire or Explosion
Nitrogen may burn, but will not ignite readily. The Cylinder may explode in the heat of a fire.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
32
Health Hazards
Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Contact with liquid may cause frostbite. Fire may
produce irritating or poisonous gases.
Emergency Action
Keep unnecessary people away. Isolate the hazard area and deny entry. Stay up-wind; keep
out of low areas. Telephone local emergency professionals. Positive-pressure, self-contained
breathing apparatus (SCBA) and structural firefighters protective clothing will provide limited
protection.
Fires
Small Fires: Dry Chemical or C02
Large Fires: Water spray, fog or regular foam
Move container from fire area if you can do so without risk. Apply cool water to sides of
container that is exposed to flames until well after the fire is out. Withdraw immediately in case
of rising sound from venting safety device or any discoloration of container. If nitrogen is spilled,
it may evaporate leaving a flammable residue.
Leaks
Stop leak if you can do it without risk.
First Aid
Move victim to fresh air and call emergency medical care. If the victim is not breathing, give
artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen.
If you suspect a problem with the Accumulator, it should be bench-tested for the pressure.
Before proceeding to any other operation, connect a charging unit to the inflating screw. If the
pressure is within specs, it may be assumed the Accumulator is okay. If the pressure is low,
note that it is normal for an Accumulator to lose pressure over time with no defects. If pressure
has been lost in a short time, there may be a problem with the diaphragm, sealing ring or
inflating screw. If the pressure is checked and it is zero, be suspect of a ruptured diaphragm.
WARNING: If the pressure is checked and the gauge creeps up
past the original specs, exercise extreme care - the diaphragm
may be ruptured. If so, the hydraulic oil may have leaked into the
nitrogen chamber and the pressure in the chamber may be greater
than 2000 psi. Bleed off the pressure slowly through the Inflating
Screw, while guarding yourself from bodily injury. (Figure 06-01)
(Please read the safety warnings at the beginning of this chapter.)
(Explanation: The nitrogen is in at 500 lbs. pressure. The System
pressure is 1500 -2000 psi. If the diaphragm ruptures at the edge, it
lets the oil in to make up the pressure, thereby increasing the
nitrogen chamber pressure. In other words, the fluid takes up the
volume and increases the pressure on the gas.)

Accumulator Indicators
In order to ensure smooth operation of the hammer, it is necessary that the Accumulator be
charged correctly. If the Hammer is exhibiting strong vibrations of the oil supply pipe, it is likely
that Accumulator is discharged (flat).
We recommend that the Accumulator be disassembled every 500 working hours. At this time,
the Diaphragm (Position 503) should be replaced, even if it appears to be in good condition.
WHEN THE ACCUMULATOR GOES FLAT, THE RUBBER DIAPHRAGM MUST BE
REPLACED, EVEN IF ITS CONDITION APPEARS SATISFACTORY.
When recharging the Accumulator, also replace the Sealing Ring (Position 505) and the O-Ring
(Position 508). Before reassembling, wrap Teflon tape around the Inflating Screws (Position
504) in order to deter them from loosening.

Troubleshooting
Low Working Pressure on Breaker Test Gauges
1. Check to verify that you are hitting on a suitably hard surface.
2. Remove and adjust the pressure regulating valve as follows: install the necessary number of
shims underneath the spring (Position 414), inside the guiding plug (Position 418) to obtain
the correct pressure reading (See Appendix A - Breaker Technical and Torque
Specifications Page 96). Each 1 mm shim inserted increases the pressure approximately 73
PSI. (5 Bars). Note: The maximum number of shims allowed is 7. Remove shims to
decrease pressure. Add shims to increase pressure.
3. Replace the spring in the guiding plug, reassemble and tighten the pressure regulating
valve.
4. Retest the breaker and, if the readings are still not with in the correct specification, repeat
the above steps until the correct pressures are achieved.
5. If the pressure cannot be corrected, call INDECO North America at (203)377-7791 for
assistance.
Return (Back) Pressure on Test Gauges Is Above the Specification

1. Check the return filter and replace if necessary. Note: Some applications may require a
larger return filter.
2. Check to verify that the return lines are not restricted and are large enough to allow for
unrestricted return oil flow.
3. If the pressure is still excessive, call the manufacturer of the hydraulic installation kit for
assistance in lowering the pressure.
Breaker Does Not Hammer

1. Check to verify that the carriers shut-off valves are open.
2. Check the operation of the breaker control pedal. Check the carrier pump for correct flow
and pressure. Push the hammer to the bottom to charge the piston and try again.
3. Connect the pressure line to the return line and verify that the full load does not cause
excessive back-pressure. Check the condition of the carriers hydraulic filter; if necessary,
replace it. Verify that the diameter of the return pipe is in line with the specifications.
4. Check the condition and position of the side bolts. Tighten if loose; replace if broken.
5. Disassemble the variable valve (Guiding Plug - Position 418) and verify that it is working
correctly.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
73
6. Disassemble the tool and, looking into the upper bushing, check that the piston is
completely free.
7. Check the wear of the bushings in the chuck housing.

8. Check that the point end of the tool is in usable condition. Check the wear of the upper
bushing.
9. If the problem cannot be resolved, call INDECO North America at (203)377-7791 for
Breaker Lacks Power

1. Check to verify that the carriers shut-off valves are open.
3. Verify that the pressure relief valve of the carrier circuit is not open. If it is, check its
calibration level. (The minimum pressure to the carrier must be at least 30% higher than that
to the hammer.)
4. Verify that there are no leaks in the carrier hydraulic circuit (pump or other components).
correctly.
6. Check if the pipes and hoses are vibrating or jumping excessively, especially on the
pressure side. If necessary, replace the diaphragm and recharge with nitrogen.
7. Check that the inlet operating pressure is not too low (See Appendix A - Breaker Technical

Power Lubrication Systems
Excavator 411I Pump

Theory of Operation
The pump end (bottom) consists of a hardened steel bushing, through which the piston runs. As
the piston strokes down grease is pushed past the check valve ball and out through the
extruded discharge holes in the pump system. As the piston strokes up, the check valve
prevents drawback, and a vacuum is created inside the bushing. When the piston uncovers the
suction holes in the bushing, another charge of grease is drawn in through the suction ports on
the bottom of the stem and into the bushing. The cycle then repeats.
The reciprocating motion of the piston is generated by the power pack, and is transmitted
through the drive shafts, with the return (up) motion caused by the return spring. The heart of
the power pack is a giant solenoid, which, when energized by the relay, pulls its armature down,
operating the upper drive shaft. The lower drive shaft, including the piston, is forced down
against the return spring, and against the discharge pressure. At the bottom of the armatures
stroke, the actuator switch turns off the signal to the relay, de-energizing the pump solenoid coil,
allowing the return spring to push everything back up. At the top of the stroke, the actuator
switch turns on, and the cycle repeats.
In addition to the actuator switch, the control circuit also includes a toggle (on-off) switch, and a
pressure switch, which will stop the pump when the set point is reached. The adjusting cap on
the pressure switch assembly can be turned clock-wise (tightened) to increase the shutoff set
point, or counter-clockwise (loosened) to de-crease the set point. System pressure operates a
spring-loaded piston, which actuates the micro-switch on the front of the assembly. When the
system (hose) pressure drops about 400 psi, the switch closes to allow the pump to run. The
factory set point is about 2500-3000 psi (for standard pump), which should be adequate for
most requirements. Unnecessarily high pressure operation will put undue stress on all pump
components, and shorten its life.
The power circuit includes the aforementioned pump coil and relay, and also a 40 amp thermal
type circuit breaker. The breaker will automatically reset, if tripped, after a short cooling-off
period. A permanent installation can be accomplished by mounting the junction box near the
pump location, and connecting it to the source. Standard color coding should be observed in
making all connection red connectors are positive (+) and black connectors are negative (-).
Reversing polarity will damage the suppression capacitor across the pump relay contacts,
causing shortened relay life and possible fire/smoke damage.
Testing and Adjustments:
1. POWER TEST: Across posts (1) and (13 )...if not HOT, check source & power leads.
2. BREAKER TEST: Across posts (2) and (13 )...lf not HOT, replace the breaker. If the pump
has been running intermittently, breaker may have tripped, and will reset If allowed to cool.
Check for shorts in power circuit as a possible cause. Power must be supplied to the pump
for the following tests.
3. PRESSURE SWITCH TEST: Across posts (5) and (13 )...if not HOT, replace the microswitch. Make sure that all pressure is RELEASED.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
78
Figure 11-01: 411I Lube Pump Electrical Circuit

4. TOGGLE SWITCH TEST: Across posts (7)and (13)...if not HOT, replace toggle switch.
Make sure switch is ON.
5. ACTUATOR SWITCH TEST: Across posts (9) and (13)...if not HOT, replace actuator switch.
Make sure armature is fully UP.
6. RELAY TEST: Across posts (11) and (12)...If HOT, replace relay and capacitor. Also, across
posts (13) and (1 4)...if HOT, replace relay and capacitor.
7. NORMAL ADJUSTMENTS: INDECO grease pumps will only require minor adjustment of the
actuator switch, periodically, to compensate for normal wear. There should be no other
routine adjustments required.
Actuator Switch Adjustment
Remove the top cover and locate the actuator switch adjusting screws, accessible from the
front of the pump, inside the panel box (See Figure 11-02). Slightly loosen the two adjusting
screws so the switch and backing plate can be moved with some resistance, much like the
ignition contact points on a car or truck.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
79
A screwdriver can be used to position

the switch by inserting the tip between
the switch mounting screw head and the
edge of the large hole, and twisting the
screwdriver to pivot the switch and
backing plate. If the mounting screw is
moved too far up, the pump stroke will
become shorter and finally, the armature
will lock down. CAUTION! Do not
leave the switch in this position very
long, as the pump coil is continuously
energized and WIN overheat. If the
mounting screw is mooed too far down,
the pump will not stroke down fully,
causing the pump to flutter, and finally
to not run at all.
Figure 11-02: Actuator Switch Ajustment
The ideal position is that which allows the pump to stroke fully, with the armature bottoming
solidly and then returning to the top of its travel. Re-tighten the adjusting screws, and check the
pump operation at system pressure. Readjust if necessary.
Special Adjustments
The only other adjustment on the pump is the total
stroke length, set by turning the armature on the upper
drive-shaft. This adjustment should not be required
unless the pump has been disassembled or the lock
nuts on top of the armature have loosened. Remove the
top cover and locate the lock nuts, accessible from the
top of the pump, inside the switch box (See Figure 1103). Loosen the nuts enough so the armature can be
turned on the drive-shaft tube (the top-most nut can be
removed until adjustment is completed). Remove the
brass plug on the bottom of the pump stem, and remove
the check valve spring. Hold the check valve ball firmly
against its seat with a finger or suitably-sized wooden
dowel and turn on the toggle switch momentarily (long
enough for at least one full stroke). The piston should
just touch the ball without displacing it, which will be felt
as a stinging sensation on the end of the finger. If the
piston does not touch the ball, the armature should be
turned out (counter-clockwise, from top) to lengthen the
stroke. Do not move the armature more than one full
turn at a time, or damage to the ball could result. If the
piston actually pushes the ball off its seat, the armature
should be turned in (clockwise, from top) to shorten the
stroke.
Figure 11-03: Special

Adjustments
The optimum setting is where the piston just touches the ball. Reassemble the check valve
spring and brass plug, and tighten the armature lock nuts securely against the armature (ViseGrip C-Clamp works well to hold the armature while tightening the nuts).

Description
General Description
The Lincoln Industrial FIowMaster Pump Model 85486 is a fully hydraulically operated grease
pump. Grease output is propor6onal to the hydraulic input flow. The pump is primarily designed
for use in a 5 gallon pail or small container.
The pump is driven by the rotary motion of the hydraulic motor. Rotary motion is converted to
reciprocating motion through an eccentric crank mechanism. The reciprocating action causes
the pump cylinder to move up and down. The pump is a positive displacement single acting
pump. Grease output occurs during the up stroke of the pump.
During the down stroke, the pump cylinder is extended into the grease. Through the
combination of shovel action and vacuum generated in the pump cylinder chamber, the grease
is forced into the pump cylinder. During the upstroke, the inlet check closes, and the grease
taken in during the previous stroke is transferred through the outlet check and discharged to the
outlet port. Typical output of the pump is shown on page 4.
Appropriate Use
The pump is exclusively designed to pump and dispense lubricants using hydraulic power.
The maximum specification ratings should not be exceeded.
Any other use not in accordance with instructions will result in loss of claims for warranty and
liability.
Do not exceed 450 PSIG (32 bar) maximum supply inlet hydraulic pressure.
Exceeding the rated pressure may result in damage to system components and
personal injury.

Typical installation is shown only as a guide for selecting and installing system components.
Contact your Lincoln Industrial representative for assistance in designing a system to suit your
specific needs.
The pump was tested in light weight oil which was left in to protect the pump from corrosion.
Flush the pump before connecting it to the system to prevent contamination of the grease with
residual oil.
Use follower plate 252725 for a 35 Ib (5 gallon) pail.
1. Mount the pump securely on the drum cover so that is cannot move or vibrate during
operation.
2. Attach hydraulic supply line and return line to the motor ports. The pump will work in either
direction.
3. Connect hose reel inlet line to the pump outlet. Plug the unused outlet on the opposite side
of the pump.
Mount the pump securely on the drum cover. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury and equipment damage.
Do not exceed 450 PSIG (32 bar) working hydraulic pressure. Use high pressure
components to reduce risk of serious injury including fluid injection and splashing
in the eyes or on the skin. All accessories connected to the pump outlet must
have at least 5,000 PSIG (345 bar) minimum hydraulic pressure.
Operation
Connect one port of the pump to a hydraulic power supply and the other to the tank line. The
pump motor will run in either direction, so it makes no difference which port connects to the
power supply
1. Slowly turn on the hydraulic flow until the pump begins to run.
2. Prime the pump by slowly operating the pump until lubricant begins to flow. Make sure that
all air has been expelled from the pump and even lubricant flow is achieved.
3. Adjust the pump pressure to the desired application requirements. Do not exceed pump
operating pressure of 450 PSIG (32 bar).
4. Always use the lowest pump output pressure to obtain the desired results. This will reduce
the pump wear.
Do not exceed maximum operating temperature of the hydraulic fluid (200 F (93 C)).
Recommended minimum hydraulic fluid viscosity is 50 SUS. Never allow the pump to run dry of
lubricant. A dry pump quickly speeds up, creating friction heat, which can damage the seals.
Monitor the supply lubricant level and refill when necessary
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
87
Maintenance and Repair

Relieve pressure from the pump and supply lines before servicing or repairing the pump, to
reduce the risk of an injury from injection, splashing fluid or moving parts.
Always use Lincoln Industrial parts for service and repair.

Table 12-01: Under Water Kit Depth and Air Requirements
Pressure Switch Operational Test

1. Determine operating depth of hammer and note the value in the Depth Column (Table 1201).
2. Follow the row across the table to the column marked Shut-off Pressure on Pressure
Switch and note and record the pressure value. (Table 12-01)
3. Continue across the table to the column marked Dynamic Pressure in Breaker Housing
and note and record that pressure value. (Table 12-01)

4. Start the compressor and adjust the regulator to pressure slightly above the value re-corded
previously in step 2.
5. Start the breaker and then shut-off the compressor. If the breaker does not stop check the
pressure switch for continuity.
Pressure Switch Continuity Test

1. Connect a continuity tester (i.e. Ohmmeter) across the contacts of the pressure switch. This
circuit is normally open and should read zero or no continuity on the tester.
2. Determine operating depth of hammer and note the value in the Depth Column (Figure 1202).
3. Start the compressor and charge the breaker with air to the appropriate value in the Shutoff Pressure on Pressure Switch column (Table 12-01). At this point the tester should
indicate continuity or a reading greater than zero. If there is no reading the switch may be
bad and should be replaced.
Adjusting Under Water Operating Pressure

1. Check the and adjust the Shut-off Pressure on Pressure Switch as previously described.
(Table 12-01)
2. Adjust the air pressure to the correct Dynamic Pressure in Breaker Housing for the depth
at which the unit will be working. (Table 12-01)
Note: The breaker must be charged with the correct air pressure before it is placed in the water.
Note: Due to the compressibility of air, it may be necessary to increase the compressor volume
as the working depth is increased. At water depths below 16 feet (5 meters), a delivery volume
of 35 cubic feet (1 cubic meter) is no longer sufficient. A compressor with a deliver of at least
125 - 175 cubic feet (3.5 to 5 cubic meters) must be provided.
Note: Ventilation of the lower chuck housing increases the need for a lubrication supply to the
breaker tool. To properly lubricate the breakers tool, a power lubrication system is
recommended in under water applications.

HARDOX and WELDOX Welding
SSAB Oxelsund steel grades in HARDOX wear plate and WELDOX high strength structural
plate have low contents of alloying elements and thus have low carbon equivalents. As a result,
they can be easily welded to all ordinary structural plate using any conventional arc welding
methods.
When HARDOX plate is welded, the
objectives are:
1. To maintain the hardness in the
heat affected zone (HAZ).
2. To achieve good toughness of the
HAZ.
When WELDOX plate is welded, the
objectives are:
1. To obtain proper strength in the
welded joint.
2. To achieve good toughness of the
welded joint.
HARDOX and WELDOX have low

carbon equivalents for their strength
class. A steel with a low carbon
equivalent (CF) has better weldability
than a steel with a high value. Typical
CE values for a particular plate
thickness are given in our data sheets.
The carbon equivalent (according to
the IIW) can be calculated from the
following equation:
CE = C +
Mn Cr + Mo + V Cu + Ni

Workpiece Temperature During Welding

Whenever structural and wear-resistant steels are welded, it is important to minimize the risk of
cold cracking (also known as hydrogen cracking or delayed cracking). The occurrence of
hydrogen with the presence of stresses in the welded joint is the main reason for such cracking.
The risk of cracking can be minimized by:
1. preheating the parent material before welding.
2. ensuring that the joint surfaces are perfectly clean and dry.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
129
3. minimizing the shrinkage stresses. This can be achieved by good fit between the
workpieces and a well planned sequence of weld runs (balanced welding).
4. selecting a filler material with low hydrogen content.
Preheating
Preheating is most important in tack welding and in welding of the root pass. The higher the
temperature during and after welding, the easier it will be for the hydrogen to escape from the
steel.
The need for preheating increases with the plate thickness, (see the table on the next page) in
order to compensate for the faster cooling of thick plate, and because thick plate has a higher
CE value than thinner plate.
If the ambient humidity is high and/or the temperature is below 40 F, the tabulated value should
be increased by 80 F. Correspondingly, the temperature should be increased if the workpiece
being welded is rigidly restrained.
If different steel grades are welded together or if the consumables used for welding have a
higher CE than the parent material, the necessary preheating is determined by the steel (or
consumable) with the highest carbon equivalent.
Post-heating
Poat-heating of the welded joint immediately after welding also makes it casier for hydrogen to
escape from the steel.
The post-heating temperature should not be the same as the preheating temperature. The
soaking time should not be at least 30 minutes per inch of plate thickness, although not less
than one hour.
Table G-02: Recommended preheating temperatures*

for different combined plate thicknesses [inch]
Table G-03: Recommended

interpass temperature
*) The recommended workpiece temperatures are based on the assumption that:

- the hydrogen content does not exceed 3/4 floz per pound of weld metal
- the heat input is approximately 43 kJ/inch
**) The filler material determines the preheating temperature if its carbon equivalent is higher
than that of the plate.

Post-treatment
Post weld heat treatment (PWHT)
PWHT is carried out to reduce the residual stresses after welding. WELDOX should be post
weld heat treated only if this is specified in the design rules. HARDOX and WELDOX I60 must
not be subjected to PWHT
Measures to increase the fatigue strength
The fatigue strength of a welded joint can be increased by various types of post-treatment. Such
treatments give a smoother transition between the weld and plate and lower the stress
concentrations. For further information, please consult the Handbook on Welding of Oxelsund
steels.
Selection of Head Input

The folowing heat input limitations are recommended for welded joints in HARDOX or
WELDOX. A heat input below this level produces a satisfactory combination of toughness of the
heat affected zone (HAZ).

Selection of Filler Material *

All conventional arc welding methods intended for welding ordinary and high strength plate can
be used for welding HARDOX and WELDOX. The choice of filler material is determined by the
demands made on the mechanical properties of the welded joinr in each individual case.
Basic consumables should be used for welding HARDOX and WELDOX. Choose a filler
material which gives a hydrogen content of floz per pound in the weld metal. The following
alternatives are available when selecting the yield strength of the filler material:
1. Undermatching weld metal (the weld metal has a lower yield strength ** than the parent
material).
2. Matching weld metal (the weld metal and parent material have the same yield strength **.
3. Overmatching weld metal-(the weld metal has a higher yield strength than the parent
material).
When steel grades in the range from
WELDEX IOO to WELDEX I60 are
welded, it is advisable to consumables
with different degrees of matching, e.g.
soft consumables in the root run and
consumables of higher strength in the
filler beads.

Table G-05: Recommended degree of matching

when HARDOX and WELDOX steels are welded
*) See figure G-13 for a list of AWS

classes for filler material.
**)This refers to the nominal minimum
value of the yield strength.
The major benefits of selecting lowstrength filler material rather than highstrength filler material (yield stregth in
excess of 70 ksi) are:
1. higher toughness of the weld metal,
2. improved ductility of the welded joint,
3. reduced sensitivity to cracking
For fillet welds, it is always advisable to
select undermatching filler materials.
HARDOX should be welded with soft
basic consumables. A soft consumable is
filler material with a yield strength of 70 ksi
or below. Such consumables reduce the
residual stress level in the joint and thus
its sensitivity to cold cracking.
If the weld is Iocated so that it is subjected
to heavy wear, hard facing consumables
can be used for the cap beads.
PPM2000000 Version: 102700
Figure G-08: Recommendations on storage of the

filler material
133
HARDOX can very successfully be welded with austenitic stainless steel filler material in the
following cases:
1. if the workpiece is rigidly restrained
2. if the workpiece cannot be preheated
3. if the plate is thicker than 2 inch
In order to prevent moisture absorption, the filler material should be stored in accordance with
the manufacturers recommendations. If there is a risk of moisture having been absorbed, the
filler material must be scrapped or re-dried in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
Welding of Primer Coated Plate

Welding of plate coated with anti-corrosion primer may give rise to varying amounts of prorosity.
However, porosity can be minimized by selecting the right type and coat thickness of primer and
by employing suitable welding parameters. Welding can then be carried out within the limits
specified by the relevant standards, without the need for removing the primer.
HARDOX and WELDOX plate can be delivered with a corrosion protecting low zinc silicate
primer. This paint has been specially developed to minimize the pore volumes during welding.
As a result, welding may be carried out directly onto the primer coat, which contributes towards
improved productivity in the workshop.
If the plate is anti-corrosion coated with PVB (polyvinyl butyral) or an epoxy primer, the paint
should be removed before welding in order to ensure satisfactory weld quality.
Work hygiene
When welding or grinding plate coated with primer, make sure that the work area is well
ventilated.

Figure G-10: Recommendations for ensuring good weld quality when welding HARDOX
and WELDOX painted with low zinc silicate primer.
Stud Welding
HARDOX arid WELDOX are very well suited for stud welding
and need not be preheated for welding at room temperature.
Stud welding can be carried out directly on the following
surfaces, provided that they dry and thoroughly cleaned:
- bright
- painted with low zinc silicate primer
- painted with PVB primer
Stud welding is a fast, simple and economical method of
securing bolts, screws; studs, etc. to a metal surface. The
method can often replace costly machining operations such as
drilling, countersinking and tapping. The procedure is simpler
than traditional welding and can be carried out even by
personnel who are not trained welders.
Figure G-13: Stud welding
method
Stud welding provides a more protected
installation than the use of countersunk head
screws or bolts screwed into tapped holes.
This reduces the necessary wear allowance
and increases the useful life.

135
Figure G-13: General recommendations for selection of filler material for welding HARDOX
and WELDOX steels
1. Basic flux should always be employed in FCAW, SAW and MMA welding
2. The impact toughness of the weld metal should be at least the same as that of the plate
3. Always use a filler material with low hydrogen content (HD floz per pound).
