It´s a little bit smaller than the Soosan hammer we mounted on a Volvo EC290B last week! That hammer alone weigh in around 3 tons without the mountingplate.

I would hate that

But that is just me .....I am a bit "over the top" in terms of looking after my kit!!

I know that!
I already have some minor scratches but I have a pallet that is "adapted" for transporting the hammer so I don´t have to lay it on the ground. That´ll hopfully save it from some future scratches.

hi guys, i only joined today. as for hammers i've been using them since 1985, and must have tryed them all!!! and there is one hammer that is far ahead of the field, that is the INDECO i got a hp 7000 now and man can it break, as for being hard on the excavator? its how you use it, never use dipper vertical as this will shock pins, use out past that point and oil in rams help stop this effect.

Hi Gary big welcome to CMN,
when i was working for Brown and Mason donkeys years ago now, we had a guy who did nothing but hammer work on his Mustang 120, thing is though he would sit in the works bus in the morning and did nothing but shake .. and on the way home, we called him shaky.
