About F12 Hydraulic Breaker Parts by FRD Kent

Essential Operating Tips for Furukawa (FRD) F12 Hydraulic Breaker

The FRD Kent F12 hydraulic breaker is built for heavy-duty performance and is available in two versatile configurations, the TLB version for large series backhoes and the Qt (Quiet) model for noise-sensitive job sites. Engineered to take on tough, high-demand applications, the F12 excels in road construction, bridge work, rock breaking, utility installations, and quarry operations. It can also be pedestal-mounted for efficient oversized material reduction.

Proper Operating Techniques

  • Boom Down Pressure: Apply the correct amount of boom down pressure to ensure maximum breaking ability. Too little pressure transfers energy to the carrier, causing stress and potential damage. Excessive pressure can lift the carrier, leading to shocks and damage when the material breaks.
  • Thrust Direction: Always keep the breaker perpendicular to the work surface to prevent the tool from slipping or binding.
  • Hose Vibrations: If hoses vibrate excessively, the nitrogen charge in the accumulator may need adjustment.

Essential Operating Tips for Furukawa (FRD) F12 Hydraulic Breaker

Operating the Furukawa (FRD) F12 hydraulic breaker efficiently and safely requires adherence to proper techniques. These practices not only optimize performance but also prolong the lifespan of the breaker and prevent damage to the equipment. Here are key operating tips based on the Furukawa Rock Drill USA manual.

Proper Operating Techniques

  • Boom Down Pressure: Apply the correct amount of boom down pressure to ensure maximum breaking ability. Too little pressure transfers energy to the carrier, causing stress and potential damage. Excessive pressure can lift the carrier, leading to shocks and damage when the material breaks.
  • Thrust Direction: Always keep the breaker perpendicular to the work surface to prevent the tool from slipping or binding.
  • Hose Vibrations: If hoses vibrate excessively, the nitrogen charge in the accumulator may need adjustment.
  • Working Steel Travel: Ensure the working steel moves freely in the bushing. If seized, disassemble the front head, inspect, repair or replace parts, and keep the bushing well-greased.
  • Idle Hammering: Discontinue hammering immediately after the material breaks to avoid idle strokes that can damage the breaker and carrier.
  • Avoid Moving Rocks: Do not use the breaker to roll, push material, or reposition the carrier, as this may damage various components.
  • Prying and Lifting: Never pry or lift with the working steel to avoid damaging the bolts or causing the steel to become stuck.
  • Avoid Prolonged Hammering: Do not hammer continuously in the same spot for more than 45-60 seconds to prevent overheating and damage.
  • Breaking Hard or Large Material: Break the ends or at cracks for better results.
  • Breaking Round Material: Use a blunt working steel for better contact with rounded rocks.
  • Engine Speed: Operate at the specified engine speed to avoid overheating the oil and damaging components.
  • Operating in Water or Mud: Submerge only the working steel, not the breaker, to avoid piston damage.
  • Winter Operation: Allow ample time for hydraulic oil and metal to warm up to avoid damage.
  • Positioning the Breaker: Maintain control to avoid dropping the breaker on the material.
  • Carrier's Cylinder Positions: Do not operate with fully extended or retracted cylinders.
  • Inspect All Nuts and Bolts: Regularly check for loosened mounting bolts and nuts before, during, and after use.
  • Care of Working Steel: Refer to the manual for proper care and replacement of working steel.
