The 34 gpm oil supply is the maximum oil flow setting allowed on this hammer. The BRH 625 hammer can be used with carriers providing lower oil
flows (in the 21 to 34 gpm range), but will produce lower blow rates.
However, the back-head low-pressure valve has been specially designed to
maintain the same working pressure whatever the oil flow supply [see II-5].

Oil temperature plays an important role as excessively hot oil increases
internal leakage [which lowers efficiency] and deteriorates the piston seals
and the accumulator diaphragm.

II MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
The life of a tool is determinated by its operating time. The hour-meter of your excavator will not
produce an accurate measurement of the hammer operating time. Travelling and boom positioning
are excavator functions that consume a lot of time but do not involve actual hammer operating time.
II-1 Mounting tool and pin
When taking delivery of your new hammer, spend just a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the
tool changing procedure.
III-1.1 To insert a tool
a> Insert the tool [rep. 72] into the front guide. Make sure that the two flat edges are well positioned
in order to insert the retaining pins.
b> Insert the two retaining pins [rep. 53] and put the shutters [55] back.
c> insert the two pins [rep. 54] in order to lock the shutters.
d> Always check the o'rings [rep. 53] inside the shutters. The pins [rep. 54] must not be moving
freely. If the case, replace the o'rings.
Before inserting a new tool inside the hammer, make sure the shank of the
tool, the bushing, and the two retaining pins are hand-greased [as a grease,
we recommend the use of TRAMAC BRH7].

BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
II-1.2 To remove a tool
a> Use a screw-driver to drive out the pin [rep. 54 - see previous page] from hole A.
b> Using a long screw-driver in hole B, push out the retaining pin [rep. 53 - see previous page] and
the shutter [rep. 55 - see previous page].
When removing the tool, take care not to drop the tool on sharp objects, or polished surfaces may be damaged permanently.
II-2 Lubrication
Proper lubrication is essential for the efficiency of the BRH 625 hammer. It will lengthen of the life of the hammer since it considerably reduces the frictions between the bushings and the tool. The use of the automatic
lube station promotes a complete distribution of the lubricant through out the bushings.
However, this should not prevent the operator from hand-lubricating the tool before
inserting it and performing frequent visual inspections to insure that the point is
wet.
Before inserting the tool [rep. 72] inside the hammer, hand-lubricate
the shank of the tool, the bushing, and the two tool-retainers. As lubricant, we recommend the use of TRAMAC P11 oil lubricant.
A properly lubricated hammer will show some grease running down the point :
Keep the tool wet all the time.
Page 6
BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
II-3 Tool retainers
Examine the retaining pins [rep. 53] 2 or 3 times a week. Change them
when they show signs of heavy wear (like becoming oval shaped or
showing big cracks) or when any portion of the grooves have disappeared (if not, lubrication can be impaired, leading to high frictions
between the tool and the pins and, possibly, to the tool failure [see IV7.6]).
When removing retaining pins, wear should be checked to decide if they should be turned over or not prior
inserting in the front guide. In normal working conditions, the pins will show marks which correspond to the
impact of the upper round shoulder of the tool flat section. When controlling pins, two cases may arise :
]
Hollow shape
a> Hollow shaped deformation without any bump
around the mark. Pin can be turned over by 180º to
lengthen life time.

b> Hollow shaped deformation shows peripheral
bump more particularly located on round part of pin.
View G

It is imperative to eliminate the bump by grinding prior turning the pin over 180
degrees.
Deep and irreversible damages may result from ignoring the above mentioned recommendations and lead to forfeiture of warranty.
II-4 Tool bushing and front guide wear parameters
TRAMAC BRH 625 features replaceable chuck-bushings [rep. 50 & 52]. The bushings and front guide must
be regularly checked for wear. Excess wear will cause
misalignment between the tool and the striking piston.
Thus, the impact will generate stress contractions
detrimental to the striking faces.
The chuck-bushings are grooved in such a way as to provide perfect lubrication of
the tool : When any portion of these grooves has disappeared, consult your TRAMAC dealer for part replacement.

BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
II-5 Side-rods
Daily, inspect the side rods [rep. 58] for possible breakage or loosening
by tapping on each rod with a metal object. You will notice if a rod is broken by its particular sound.
Daily, check for loose tie rods. Consult your TRAMAC dealer for the tie rod tightening procedure. It is a very sensitive undertaking and incorrect methods can result
in serious consequences. Your TRAMAC dealer knows the torque specifications
and will assist you in tightening the tie rods.
II-6 Screws tightness
II-6.1 Bracket cap bolts [upper suspension bolts [rep. 405]
Check these 12 screws [rep. 69] and nuts [rep. 71]
for tightness :
o 30 minutes after having put the hammer into
operation for the first time,o then weekly.
The proper torque is 380 ft-lbs.
II-6.2 Suspension screws
Every 500 hours, check the two lower suspensions screws [65] for tightness. The
proper torque is 290 ft-lbs.
Page 9
BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
II-6.3 Accumulator fixing screws
Every 500 hours, check the 18 accumulator fixing screws [rep. 6] for tightness. The
proper torque is 470 ft-lbs.
II-6.4 Greasing flange screws [rep. 128]
Every 500 hours, check these screws [rep. 40]. The proper torque is 288 ft-lbs.
II-7 Accumulator
TRAMAC accumulators [rep. 3] should stay charged for at least one operating year. In normal operation, the
two hammer hoses vibrate lightly; but when the accumulator is discharged, the hoses will jump violently. You
will also note a power loss as the hammer will continue to fire, but will have no force.
Report this immediately to your TRAMAC dealer.
Check nitrogen pressure with test gauge P/N 21006 and, if necessary, recharge with charging fixture P/N
51347.
Accumulator pressure
Accumulator tightening screw [rep 4] torque
530 psi
145 ft.lbs
TRAMAC accumulators do not loose their charge through leakage. A TRAMAC
accumulator consists of two flanges between which is held a diaphragm (reassembling a pie plate). The only time a TRAMAC accumulator will loose its charge will be
when this diaphragm becomes perforated.
Never try to open the accumulator without discharging previously the pressure
through the inflating screw.
II-8 Storage
Put the appropriate plugs on the hammer and excavator couplings, to avoid any oil leakage and dust penetration. Put the breaker away under cover in a clean place. Lubricate with grease the visible part of the piston
and the entire tool to avoid damage from rust.
Page 10
BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Remember, a corroded piston destroys its seals in a few minutes.This operation
can't be overlooked in case of underwater work, and in particular, in the case of sea
water,
II-9 Underwater working
The TRAMAC BRH 625 model in the standard version must
not be used for underwater work, even for very short periods
of time. If the chamber between the piston and the tool fills
with water when the piston strikes, the water will not be
evacuated fast enough and a considerable pressure rise will
then occur which will destroy the piston seal (with a risk of
seizure).
Page 11
BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
For underwater operation, the ball [rep. 4] and the spring [rep. 5] included in the lubrication flange must be
eliminated and the flange connected to an air compressor. Pressure from the compressor must be at least 22
psi above the water pressure at the working depth.
II-10 Roof scaling
When working upwards, it is imperative to pressurize the front guide of the BRH 625 in order to avoid the
penetration of abrasive dust [see III-9 for the removing of parts 4 & 5]. In addition, the standard upper bushing [rep. 50] must be replaced by a specially designed upper-bushing [rep. 51] which provides enlarged air
passages.
II-11 Sound proof cradle
The BRH 625 model in the standard version can easily be converted in the sound proofed version for work
being completed in an urban environment requiring the lowest possible level of noise.
Page 12
BRH 625 MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Please, contact your TRAMAC dealer for more information about this option. When
the hammer is equipped with the soundproof arrangement, care must be taken to
observe warnings and recommendations, particularly in the maintenance of parts
involving sound proofing materials, some of which are flammable.

OPERATING INSTRUC-
III OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
III-1 Cold weather starting
Start up the excavator and circulate the hydraulic oil to warm
it up before starting the hammer. When oil is warm, raise the
hammer from ground, idle the the engine and energize the
hammer control valve. The oil will pass through the hammer
but the hammer will not fire. Run this way for 5 to 10 minutes;
this will warm up the hammer parts. In below zero temperatures, we suggest the tool be stored in a warm shed at night.
Extreme cold can crack the point when you start the breaking
operation.
III-2 How to obtain maximum productivity and long life
TRAMAC working tools are made from a special steel far superior to any tool steel commercially
available. Unlike other tools on the market, our steel is hardened all the way through - no thin shell
of hard steel which wears quickly. When the tools lose their edge, either at the tip or on the sides, it
is possible to sharpen them without repeating heat treatment, using one of the following methods :
A> With a milling or planning machine for chisels and cutters, or with a lathe for the
moils and chisels. These operations must be completed using the adequate type of hard metal tool.
B> By sharpening : this operation must be performed using a coolant, in order not to
overheat the tool to be maintained.
As a general rule, never let the tool cool quickly or suddenly, even when it is
used with the breaker.
The fact of dipping a tool into water when it has been heated in the course of work, or leaving it in
the snow in winter, results in a quenching effect on the tip or cutting bit, and this increases the risk
of breakage.
Page 14
BRH 625
TIONS
OPERATING INSTRUC-
Tools are covered by TRAMAC against metal defects (very uncommon). It is not
unusual that some operations (working at angles, blank firing, ...) lead to tool breakage, including inside the chuck housing.The use of after market tools will void your
warranty for any claim related to parts in contact with the tool (which includes the
main piston).
Learning to run a hammer properly is not difficult. It takes a little time and just plain common sense. To preserve the life of the tool and obtain maximum hammer productivity, we urge you to read the following.
III-3 How a demolition tool cracks rock and concrete
When the hammer piston strikes the top of a demolition tool, it sends a compressive stress wave down to the
working end of the tool. Provided the demolition tool is in contact with the rock or concrete which requires
breaking, it is this compressive stress wave which fractures the rock. Then, immediately following the compressive wave, a tensile stress wave is formed due to the hammer piston lifting from the top of the demolition
tool.
The cycle of compressive and tensile stresses flowing down the tool is repeated for each hammer blow.
Obviously, anything that interferes with the strength of the compressive stress wave during service, for example "Blank Firing" or bending of the demolition tool due to leverage, will result in loss of breaker efficiency of
up to 80 % and possible failure of the tool itself.
III-4 Cause and effect of fatigue
III-4.1 Correct operating conditions
The continuous cycle of compressive and tensile stresses in the demolition tool, even under correct operating conditions, creates fatigue stress in the tool which can lead to the fatigue failure of the tool before it is
worn out. Anything which interferes with the cycle of compressive and tensile stresses will also increase the
level of fatigue stress being applied to the demolition tool and, thus, increases the risk of early fatigue failure
of the tool.
Page 15
BRH 625
TIONS
OPERATING INSTRUC-
The main cause of increased fatigue stress in a demolition tool is
any form of side pressure during service which creates bending.
Thus, utilizing the tool as a lever, using an incorrect driving angle
or attempting to break ground using the pull of the excavator are
all detrimental to the life of a demolition tool and should be avoided [see figure].
The hydraulic power available in the machine far exceeds the strength of a demolition tool if it is used incorrectly and can "snap the tool like a carrot".
III-4.2 Other causes of increased fatigue stress in a demolition tool include :
A> Free running ( or Blank firing)
Free running occurs when the hammer piston strikes the top of the demolition tool when the working end is
not in proper contact with the rock or concrete to be broken. This includes jobs where the tool slides off the
work and also when break-through of thin concrete slabs or boulders occurs.
B> Cold :
Low temperatures cause a demolition tool to be more susceptible to fatigue failure. Tools should be warmed
before use.
C> Mechanical and thermal damage :
Any form of damage to the surface of a demolition tool renders it more liable to suffer fatigue failure. Thus, all
care must be exercised to prevent scratches, gouges or weld marks occurring due to accidental damage,
galling caused by contact between the tool and chuck bushing trough the lack of lubrication or excessive
bending.
D> Lubrication :
Care must be taken to avoid metal to metal contact that, as a result of galling, could cause deep damage
marks which, in turn, may lead to the formation of fatigue cracks and eventually failure of the demolition tool.
Make sure that the shank of the demolition tool is well lubricated before linserting it into the hammer.
Page 16
BRH 625
TIONS
OPERATING INSTRUC-
E> Corrosion :
A rusty demolition tool is more likely to suffer fatigue failure. Keep tools well greased and sheltered from the
weather when not in use.
III-5 Demolition tool fatigue failure
Demolition tool fatigue failure will occur approximately 4 inches either side of the chuck front face [see figure]
or through the retainer pin flat. Another slightly less common failure area can fall approximately 8 inches
from the working end, subject to the nature of use. The fracture face itself will normally exhibit semi-circular
polished area with the remainder being of rougher appearance (see figure). The polished semi-circular area
is the fatigue area and generally started from a damage mark or other stress initiated on the outside of the
demolition tool and spread inwards.
The fatigue area slowly widens until the stresses being applied to the demolition tool cause sudden failure of
the remaining section. Generally, the size of the fatigue area indicates the level of stress applied to the tool,
i.e. the smaller the fatigue area, the higher the stress level, although it must be borne in mind that once initiation of a fatigue crack has taken place, it requires a lower stress level to cause it to grow.

OPERATING INSTRUC-
III-6 Typical failures
TRAMAC demolition tools are manufactured from fist class materials and then heat treated to produce a fatigue and wear resistant tool. Thus when a tool has apparently failed to give a satisfactory
service life, a brief visual inspection can often give a quick indication about the cause.
Wear is dictated by the conditions of the material being broken, but, in general, the following guidelines apply:
Blank tools worn more than 1/3 of their diameter, or moils and chisels worn back more than 2
inches from the working end, are classed as reasonable life.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
TROUBLES SHOOTING … REMEDIES
A - Oil leakage on hammer.
PANNES POSSIBLES … REMÉDES
A - Fulte d'hulle au niveau du marteau.
Damaged or worn seals.
Call your TRAMAC distributor.
Joints d'étanchéité endommagés ou usés.
Consultez votre distributeur TRAMAC le plus
proche.
B - The breaker loses power; high vibrations in
breaker hoses.
B - Le marteau manque de puissance, les flexibles
de raccordement battent.
The accumulator is deflated or diaphragm
punctured. Check the oil temperature.
If oil is too hot, ask a technician to check the
breaker circuit relief valve setting.
Call your TRAMAC distributor.
L'accumulateur est dégonflé, la membrane de
I'accumulateur est percée. Vérifier la température
de I'huile. En cas d'échauffement important, faire
vérifier par un technicien, le réglage des clapets de
décharge du circuit de pelle. Consultez votre
distributeur TRAMAC le plus proche.
C - The hammer operates normally, then slows
down and stops. A few minutes later the hammer
will start again then stop again.
C - Le marteau fonctionne normalement puis la
cadence ralentit et le marteau s'arrêite. Quelque
temps après le marteau redémarre puis s'arrête.
Hydraulic oil is too hot.
Excavator circuit must be checked for heat source.
If necessary reduce the breaker operating pressure.
L'huile hydraulique est trop chaude.
Le porteur doit être vérifié pour trouver l'origine de
l'échauffement. Si nécessaire réduire la pression de
frappe du marteau.
D - One side rod bolt has broken.
D - Un tirant d'assemblage est cassé.
Stop working immediately and call your TRAMAC
distributor.
Arrdter le travail immédiatement.
Consultez votre distributeur TRAMAC le plus
proche.
E - After connection to carrier, the breaker operates
for few blows then stops.
E - Après adaptation au porteur, le marteau tape
quelques coups puis s'arrête.
The return hose is plugged, check the quick coupling seat (if installed).
Le flexible retour est bouché, vérifier le coupleur (si
montée).
Recommendation: Check oil temperature and
settings of carrier relief valves. If relief valve is not
adjusted properly, oil may heat up quicker due to
the high total power of rock breaker. This will cause
the rock breaker to perform poorly.
Recommandation: Le brise roche ayant une puissance globale élevée, veiller au bon refroidissement
de I'huile. Un mauvals réglage du clapet de surpression du porteur peut être la cause d'un échauffement important de I'huile entrainant un mauvais
fonctionnement du brise roche.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
Before looking for a hammer problem, look for a problem in the installation, like bad quick couplers or a
plugged filter [see page M3 for how to check the installation].
Make sure that the hammer has not been hooked up backwards.
Make sure that the hammer has the proper tool.
Make sure that the down pressure has been applied.
Make sure that no valve(s) are closed.
For any other problem, refer to the Trouble Shooting page M1. If you cannot identify the problem, BEFORE
calling your TRAMAC dealer, collect the following information. A complete diagnosis cannot be done without
it.
A.
B.
C.
D.
Flow rate in high pressure line running to the hammer at operating temperature and operating pressure.
Value of high pressure at hammer inlet when hammer is operating (use a 0-3000 psi gauge).
Value of back pressure in return line (use a 0-160 psi gauge).

TROUBLE SHOOTING
How to check hydraulic circuit and installation
Mount a flow meter in place of the hammer. Also, mount a low pressure (0-160 psi) gauge on the outlet of
the flow meter in order to test the back pressure in the return circuit
With the flow meter in place, activate the circuit and bring the machine up to operating temperature; do not
test the machine cold.
If the control valve is equipped with solenoid, switch on the solenoid before starting the engine to avoid
damage to the flow meter. Do not switch on or off the solenoid when the engine is running. Adjust the flow
output to match the requirements of the BRH 625 - see table on page 20.
After the flow has been adjusted, load the flow meter to the hammer operating pressure value (see table on
page 20) plus 400 psi, and readjust the flow if necessary to keep the hammer flow value constant for pressure varying between 1000 psi and hammer operating pressure value (see table on page 20) plus 400 psi.
Relief valve problems
If you cannot reach the proper oil flow at the hammer operating pressure value plus 400 psi, you may have a
bad system relief setting or a bad hammer control valve.
To check system relief valve see excavator manual for proper relief setting. Build pressure with flow meter to
determine relief cracking pressure (usually 50 to 100 psi below relief setting). Reset relief if needed.
There should be 400 to 500 psi between hammer regulated pressure value and system cracking pressure or
heat may develop.
Pump problems
If you cannot produce proper oil flow against pressure varying from 500 psi to hammer operating pressure
plus 400 psi, the pump could be bad or there is excessive leakage in the circuit.
Hammer control valve problems
If relief valve and pump are good, open and close valve three or four times: The valve spool may be sticking
or back pressure is developing on return line.
With the flow adjusted and the flow meter loaded to hammer operating pressure value plus 400 psi, take
note of the low pressure gauge reading.
The return pressure should be less than 45 psi. If the back pressure is more than 45 psi, the restriction causing this higher pressure must be found and eliminated.
After the flow meter test is completed, disconnect the flow meter and connect the hoses to the hammer.
Mount a high pressure gauge (0-3000 psi) on the hammer HP line and take the machine outside. Run the
hammer on a heavy 3 inch by 40 inch by 40 inch steel plate on hard ground and take note of the pressure
reading. Call your TRAMAC dealer if pressure adjustments are needed.

BRH 625 INSPECTION OF BACKHEAD AND DISTRIBUTION PARTS
Some parts like the cylinder (# 16), the distributor (# 20) or the plunger (# 21), are protected with an
"Antiseize" black coat. These parts must be cleaned with gasoline only. If not, the protective coat
may be damaged and seizure may occur later.
In case of lapping, always clean and wipe the lapping compound after the operation. Always use fine
grain products. During lapping or grinding, make sure to always turn in the same direction around
the part. Never lap or grind vertically to avoid making longitudinal marks which may induce greater
internal leakage or o'ring failures.
In case a black area ("Antiseize" protection coat) should be polished, always keep the area as small
as possible around the damaged surface. If not, the protection coat will no longer be efficient and
seizure may occur later.
To wipe parts, always use new service rags. If textile fibers remain inside the hammer, they may disturb the operation of the hammer.
Always use TRAMAC genuine seals and o'rings. They are made with high quality elastomers in order
to increase their resistance and to lengthen their life expectancy. Grease the seals and o'rings in
order to facilitate their installation.
Page M13

BRH 625 INSPECTION AND SERVICE OF THE ACCUMULATOR
Never try to open the accumulator without first discharging the pressure through the inflating screw
(#1-5).
Clean the special syringe tool and suck in clean diesel
fuel until the syringe is completely full without air bubble. Push the syringe into the central hole in the accumulator grid and press in normal manner (around 45 lbs
thrust). When the oil pressure in the syringe reaches
the nitrogen pressure, the diaphragm will move away
from the grid, the oil will run out from the syringe and
will flush out of the other holes of the grid. The pressure
in the accumulator is then indicated by the pressure
gauge.
Page M30
BRH 625 INSPECTION AND SERVICE OF THE ACCUMULATOR
Note : If the checking is performed on a stocked accumulator, or if the hydraulic hammer has not been working for a certain time, the value read off the gauge may be higher than that advised. In such case, the
diaphragm may have remained glued to the grid or may have hardened, which results in supplementary
resistance. The accumulator can, however, be used as such.
If the value is lower than advertised, it is time to repair the accumulator.
Check the area of the accumulator lower flange (o 1-1) in
contact with the back-head (o 7).
Check the area of the accumulator lower flange (o 1-1) in
contact with the o'ring (o 4) and its back-up ring (o 3).

If the nitrogen gas does not enter the accumulator, it may be due to an
insufficient loosening of the screw P/N 26428. Try again by inserting a
nylon washer between the inflating device (P/N 80348) and the accumulator [see diagram at right for proper dimensions].
Tighten the screw P/N 26428 using a 3/8 " socket. The proper torque
is 20 ft.lbs [2.75 m.kg].
Turn off the nitrogen bottle tap.
Make sure that the circuit is not pressurized by
the nitrogen bottle. Then, open the drain tap
on the inflating device (P/N 80348) in order to
release the gas pressure in the circuit.
Before removing the charging fixture (P/N 80348) from the top of
the accumulator, make sure that the pressure has dropped to
atmospheric pressure.

BRH 625 CHARGING OF THE
ACCUMULATOR
Check the actual accumulator pressure using the syringe P/N
21006.
If you are using the syringe on a new or rebuilt accumulator, the pressure reading
may be above 465 psi [32 bars]. If so, the accumulator can be used as is. If not, (pressure reading below 465 psi), the accumulator must be recharged.
To check that seal P/N 14826 is leak-proof, fill the cavity above
the screw P/N 26428 with hydraulic oil. If bubbles appear, the
accumulator must be recharged again using the same procedure.
