The tool, as shipped, has no special unpacking or
assembly requirements prior to usage. Inspection to
assure the tool was not damaged in shipping and does
not contain packing debris is all that is required.
CHECK HYDRAULIC POWER SOURCE
1. Using a calibrated owmeter and pressure gauge,
check that the hydraulic power source develops a
ow of 7–9 GPM/26–34 LPM at 1000–2000 psi/70–
140 bar for the 8 GPM models.
2. Make certain the hydraulic power source is equipped
with a relief valve set to open at 2100–2250 psi/145–
155 bar minimum.
3. Check that the hydraulic circuit matches the tool for
open-center (OC) operation.
CHECK TOOL
1. Make sure all tool accessories are correctly installed.
Failure to install tool accessories properly can result
in damage to the tool or personal injury.
2. There should be no signs of leaks.
3. The tool should be clean, with all ttings and
fasteners tight.
OPERATING PROCEDURES
1. Observe all safety precautions.
2. Move the hydraulic circuit control valve to the “ON”
position.
3. Place the tool bit rmly on the surface to be broken.
4. Squeeze the trigger to start the chipping hammer.
Adequate down pressure is very important.
Note: Partially depressing the trigger allows the tool
to operate at a slow speed, making it easy to start
the tool bit into the surface to be broken.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the tool is to be used during cold weather, preheat
the hydraulic uid at low engine speed. When using the
normally recommended uids, uid temperature should
be at or above 50 °F/10 °C (400 ssu/82 centistokes)
before use.
STORAGE
1. Disconnect the tool from the hydraulic power source.
2. Remove the tool bit and spray the chuck area with
WD40 inside and out.
3. Wipe clean and store in a clean, dry place.
CHECK TRIGGER MECHANISM
1. Check that the trigger operates smoothly and is free
to travel between the “ON” and “OFF” positions.
INSTALL TOOL BIT
1. Remove the solid retainer.
a. Grasp the loop of the retainer spring and pull it
from the retainer.
b. Slip the solid retainer off the chuck end.
2. Insert the tool bit into the solid retainer. The hex
shank must be toward the chuck end. Align the oval
collar with the oval slot in the chuck end of the solid
retainer.
3. Insert the tool hex shank into the chuck end to
engage the hex liner. Index the shank in the hex
liner to get the desired bit orientation to the chipper.
4. Slide the solid retainer on the chuck end, aligning
the retainer spring slot with the groove.
5. Install the retainer spring.
6. Connect the hoses to the tool and the hydraulic
power source.
Note: The pressure increase in uncoupled hoses
left in the sun may result in making them difcult to
connect. When possible, connect the free ends of
operating hoses together.
UNDERWATER MODEL
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
After each use, the movable portions of the tool that
were exposed to water should be ushed with a water
displacing oil such as WD40. Remove any remaining
water and debris as follows:
1. Turn the tool upside down (without the tool bit) and
spray oil through the inside of the chuck and retainer
including down inside the retainer spring, also spray
any of the exposed piston area to displace any
remaining water.
2. Spray oil into the On/Off valve trigger slot area.
3. Dip or spray the entire tool.
4. Cycle the tool hydraulically several times before
storing away.

TOOL PROTECTION & CARE
In addition to the Safety Precautions found in
this manual, observe the following for equipment
protection and care.
• Make sure all couplers are wiped clean before
connection.
• The hydraulic circuit control valve must be in
the “OFF” position when coupling or uncoupling
hydraulic tools. Failure to do so may result in damage
to the quick couplers and cause overheating of the
hydraulic system.
• Always store the tool in a clean dry space, safe from
damage or pilferage.
• Make sure the circuit PRESSURE hose (with male
quick disconnect) is connected to the “IN” port. The
circuit RETURN hose (with female quick disconnect)
is connected to the opposite port. Do not reverse
circuit ow. This can cause damage to internal seals.
• Always replace hoses, couplings and other parts
with replacement parts recommended by STANLEY.
Supply hoses must have a minimum working
pressure rating of 2500 psi/172 bar.
• Do not exceed the rated ow and pressure. Refer to
“SPECIFICATIONS” on page 13 for correct ow
and pressure rate. Rapid failure of the internal seals
may result.
• Always keep critical tool markings, such as warning
stickers and tags, legible.
• Do not force a small tool to do the job of a large tool.
• Keep tool bits sharp for maximum breaker
performance. Make sure that tool bits are not
chipped or rounded on the striking end.
• Never operate a chipper without a tool bit or without
holding it against the work surface. This puts
excessive strain on the retainer.
• Tool repair should be performed by experienced
personnel only.
• Make certain that the recommended relief valves
are installed in the pressure side of the system.
• Do not use the tool for applications for which it was
not intended.

UNDERWATER MODELS ONLY
DO NOT USE HYDRAULIC TOOLS UNDER-
WATER THAT ARE NOT DESIGNATED AS
AN “UNDERWATER” MODEL, OR THIS
WILL RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE TOOL.
For underwater hydraulic tools the applications
are broken down into four quadrants depending
on type of tool and method of operation.
The types of tools are percussive and rotational,
each with different characteristics allowing
for different depth operation. With percussive
tools, the nitrogen accumulator PSI must
counter the increase in ambient pressure found
at lower depths. Since there is a maximum
PSI for percussive tools they are limited to
certain depths. Rotational tools do not have
accumulators and thus capable of deeper depths.

The methods are broken into diver operated or
remote operated vehicle (ROV). ROV's can reach
lower depths and with an on-board hydraulic
power source that is depth compensated, can
operate hydraulic tools at depths of thousands of
feet. ROV operation is still limited to the tool, for
example a percussive tool has the same depth
limitation whether ROV or diver operated.
