A clutch brake removal tool configured to facilitate the removal of a single piece clutch brake from an input shaft. The clutch brake removal tool includes a rectangular shaped body having a plurality of walls forming a hollow interior volume. The body includes a first sidewall and a second sidewall and further includes a first end and a second end. The body has an opening at the second end providing access to the interior volume. The second end of the body has a leading edge wherein the leading edge is formed in a semicircular shaft so as to mateably abut against an input shaft. The first sidewall includes a first slot formed therein wherein the second end of the first slot is contiguous with the opening of the body. The second sidewall includes a second slot formed identical to the first slot and located on the opposing sidewall.

A tool includes a tool head with a utilization surface. The tool also includes a counter device responding to an impact applied to the utilization surface. The counter device has a memory, a microcontroller controlling operation of the counter device, an indicator, and an energizer connected to the microcontroller, which in response to the impact applied to the utilization surface, produces an electric current energizing the counter device to make a modification in the memory and provide information about the cumulative count of impacts in the memory via the indicator to a user.

A method of manufacturing a hydraulic hammer using a male gauge and a female gauge is provided wherein the hammer comprises a body and a chuck housing that are connectable by cooperatively formed thread fittings. A cooperatively threaded male gauge and female gauge can be used to form the threads on the body and the chuck housing and to determine the rotational orientation of the body and the chuck housing relative to one another. One of the gauges can be used to measure distortion of the chuck housing caused by heat treatment subsequent to the formation of the thread fitting and thereby to determine the required subsequent machining of the chuck housing necessary to retain the appropriate relative rotational orientation when the chuck housing is connected to the body. The method can comprise the steps of making and appropriately marking the male gauge and the female gauge.

A pressure indicator for a hydraulic hammer is provided. The pressure indicator includes a sleeve member configured to couple to an opening defined in a wall housing of an accumulator of the hydraulic hammer. The pressure indicator further includes a plunger slidably disposed within the sleeve member and movable between a first position and a second position with respect to the sleeve member. The plunger includes a first end disposed outside the wall housing of the accumulator. The plunger further includes a flange coupled to a second end. The pressure indicator further includes an elastic member inserted over the plunger and disposed between the wall housing of the accumulator and the flange. A position of the first end of the plunger with reference to an outer end of the sleeve member provides a visual indication of the pressure of the gas within the accumulator.

A buffer system for a hydraulic hammer is disclosed. The buffer system includes a wear member disposed between a first component and a second component. The wear member includes a first surface. The first surface is adapted to abut an inner surface of the first component. The wear member also includes a second surface distal to the first surface. The second surface is adapted to abut an outer surface of the second component. The buffer system also includes an insert member disposed in the wear member between the first surface and the second surface thereof. The insert member provides a visual indication when a predefined thickness of the wear member between the first surface and the second surface is worn.
