Vibrating ripper installation and operation manual instructions
-
Connect with the excavator
All of the spaces between the pins and the Excavator vibrating ripper must less than 2.5mm, use spacers to fix the interval.
2.Link the hydraulic hoses and pipes
Two main hydraulic pipes are link with the excavator as normal breakers, the smallest pipe is starting from the hydraulic motor, ending to the excavator’s oil tank, must go through to the oil tank without any valves or filter elements. The working pressure and oil flow please check the specification or contact with us to confirm for different types of the vibrating rippers.
3.Check and prepare
Fill 16L-18L 220# high strength anti-wear gear oil from the oil-filling bolt.
If filled too much oil, it will come out from the single way valve on the top of the shell, and it is will not influence on use.
The first time change the oil is after 20 hours working. Clean the magnet oil-filling bolt and fill 16L-18L 220# high strength anti-wear gear oil, the second time and future to change to oil are after 500 hours.
Check the air spring pressure, the pressure must above 0.5Mpa, and below 0.85 Mpa. (6Kgs-8Kgs)
Nonstandard air pressure will make damages on the top linkage assembly (less pressure), and unmoral vibration to the excavator (over pressure).
Grease all of the grease plug holes and grease every day before starting the work.
4.How to work.
Before starting the vibrate, the forearm of the excavator must full pressing on the top of the linkage of the vibrating ripper, until the bottom pad has been 100% left form the bottom rubber.
Empty hits will damage the bottom rubber untimely and make damages on the bottom linkage assembly.
The working angle from the shank of the excavator vibrating ripper between the rock must below 90 degrees, and do not vibrate and impact on the same point over 30 seconds.
Too much time to vibrate on the same point will make the tooth untimely cost.
Three operate angle requires for vibrating ripper(Every operate time):
a.Excavator chain angle
The excavator chain should be left the ground (adequately push the arm cylinders, and pressure on the vibrating ripper, let the chain left the ground), the distance should be more the 20mm left from the ground.
b.Shank and ground angle
The vibrating ripper’s shank should be have an included angle, the shank should be follow the cracks of the rock ( lengthways cracks), if the cracks are crosswise, the shank should be less than 30 degrees form the cross line of the rock.
c.Vibrating ripper working angle
When the vibrating ripper working on the plane area, the vibrating ripper can working with a bigger angle( between shank and the ground )to get bigger impact power, if the vibrating ripper working on steps working area, the angle should be between 80-60 degrees.
Other operate tips for excavator vibro ripper
The working depth of the shank should not too much or over the bottom bearing cover.
Too deep ripping will make the rock touch the bottom linkage, and make damages on the bottom linkage assembly, or the bearings.
Ripping with out vibration is not allowed; it will make damages on the welding shank and the tooth.
Excavator vibrate ripper maintenance:
- Please add the right amount of grease to the filling ports on a regular basis.
- For a period of 10-15 days from the beginning of using of the Vibrating ripper, please replace of the gear oil in the gear box, while replace it again after a month.
- Take care of the bolts for motor connection during the operation, and check the tightness of the bolt after each use.
- Please check the air volume in the air spring regularly every day, and inflate it in a timely manner when the air pressure is insufficient.
- Pay attention to the rubber block, which should be replaced before it is worn off or the cushioning effect is too weak.
- For other maintenance methods, please refer to the “maintenance” part of the manual.
