Is This Right For You?

Buy if

  • You break concrete curbs, asphalt patches, frost, or light stone on compact to medium skid steers
  • Occasional demolition is part of your work mix and you want a simple, reliable hammer without high cost
  • Your machine has standard hydraulic flow — light-duty breakers don't require high-flow circuits

Skip if

  • Reinforced concrete foundations or large rock are your main targets — a medium or heavy hammer is needed
  • You run a large-frame machine — a light-duty breaker is undersized and won't give adequate productivity

Also consider

  • Medium-duty hydraulic breaker for larger machines and harder material
  • Heavy-duty breaker for large-frame machines and heavy demolition
Machine Compatibility

Designed for Bobcat machines but mounts to any skid steer or CTL with a universal SSQA quick-attach plate.

Care & Maintenance

  • Check nitrogen buffer gas pressure at the start of every season and whenever impact energy feels reduced — low gas pressure is the most common cause of reduced performance
  • Lubricate the tool (chisel) bushing and retainer pins before every use — dry bushings accelerate side-loading wear on both the bushing and the tool shank
  • Inspect the lower bushing for wear after every 40 hours — a worn bushing allows chisel wobble, reducing impact energy delivery and accelerating shank wear
  • Never blank-fire the breaker — operating without material contact destroys the internal valve in minutes; this is the most common cause of breaker failures
  • Verify return-line back-pressure annually — back-pressure exceeding the breaker's rated limit destroys the valve seal progressively and may not be immediately obvious

How to Connect

  1. Attach breaker using Bob-Tach
  2. Connect single aux hydraulic circuit (breakers use one-way flow)
  3. Set machine to single-action aux mode if available
  4. Run 5 seconds at idle before working to allow oil to circulate
Safety NoteBreakers use single-direction flow. Do not run breaker in same position for more than 30 seconds — move to avoid blank-firing damage.
