Design and function

TEX 140PS-TEX 280PE is a range of hand-held,
pneumatic breakers designed for medium to heavy
demolition of materials such as concrete, asphalt
and brickwork. The pneumatic breakers are designed
for vertical use. No other use is permitted.
Recommended insertion tools are listed in the spare
parts list.
Choosing the correct breaker
for a task
It is important to choose the correct size of breaker
for the work to be performed.
A breaker that is too small means that the work will
take longer.
A breaker that is too large means that there must be
frequent repositioning, which is unnecessarily tiring
for the operator.
A simple rule for choosing the correct size of breaker
is that a normal sized piece of broken material should
be removed from the workpiece within 10–20
seconds operation.
If it takes less than 10 seconds a smaller breaker
should be selected.
If it takes more than 20 seconds a larger breaker
should be selected.
