The rated working pressure of the hydraulic hose must be equal to or higher than the relief valve setting on the hy-
draulic system. There are three types of hydraulic hose that meet this requirement and are authorized for use with
Stanley Hydraulic Tools. They are:
Certified non-conductive — constructed of thermoplastic or synthetic rubber inner tube, synthetic fiber braid
reinforcement, and weather resistant thermoplastic or synthetic rubber cover. Hose labeled certified non-
conductive is the only hose authorized for use near electrical conductors.
Wire-braided (conductive) — constructed of synthetic rubber inner tube, single or double wire braid reinforce-
ment, and weather resistant synthetic rubber cover. This hose is conductive and must never be used near
electrical conductors.
Fabric-braided (not certified or labeled non-conductive) — constructed of thermoplastic or synthetic rubber in-
ner tube, synthetic fiber braid reinforcement, and weather resistant thermoplastic or synthetic rubber cover. This
hose is not certified non-conductive and must never be used near electrical conductors.
HOSE SAFETY TAGS
To help ensure your safety, the following DANGER tags are attached to all hose purchased from Stanley Hydraulic
Tools. DO NOT REMOVE THESE TAGS.

Recommendations
The chart to the right shows recommended
minimum hose diameters for various hose
lengths based on gallons per minute (gpm)/
liters per minute (lpm). These recommenda-
tions are intended to keep return line pressure
(back pressure) to a minimum acceptable lev-
el to ensure maximum tool performance.
This chart is intended to be used for hydraulic
tool applications only based on Stanley Hy-
draulic Tools tool operating requirements and
should not be used for any other applications.
All hydraulic hose must have at least a rated
minimum working pressure equal to the maxi-
mum hydraulic system relief valve setting.
All hydraulic hose must meet or exceed
specifications as set forth by SAE J517.

NOTE:
Partially depressing the trigger allows the tool to run
at slow speed. Slow-speed operation permits easier
starting of the tool bit into the work surface.
5. To start, break an opening (hole) in the center of the
surface. After making a hole, break portions of the
material into the original opening. For best produc-
tivity, the breaking should be done around the origi-
nal hole.
The size of the broken material will vary with the
strength and thickness of the base material and the
amount of any reinforcement wire or rebar.
Harder material or more reinforcing wire or rebar will
require taking smaller bites. To determine the most
effective bite, start with 2 in. / 50 mm or smaller bites.
Bites can then be gradually increased until the bro-
ken piece becomes too large, requiring increased
time to break off the piece.
Sticking of the tool bit occurs when too large a bite is
being taken and the tool bit hammers into the mate-
rial without the material fracturing. This causes the
tool bit to become trapped in the surrounding mate-
rial.
6. The underwater model requires preventative main-
tenance after each day’s use underwater and prior
to being placed in storage. See the General Service
Notes section in this manual for this maintenance
procedure.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the breaker is to be used during cold weather, preheat
the hydraulic fluid at low engine speed. When using the
normally recommended fluid, fluid temperature should
be at or above 50 °F/10 °C (400 ssu/82 centistokes) be-
fore use.
Damage to the hydraulic system or breaker can result
from use with fluid that is too viscous or thick.
The recommended hose size is .500 inch/12 mm I.D. up
to 50 ft/15 m long and .625 inch/16 mm I.D. minimum up
to 100 ft/30 m.
PRE-OPERATION PROCEDURES
CHECK POWER SOURCE
1. Using a calibrated flowmeter and pressure gauge,
check that the hydraulic power source develops a
flow of 7-9 gpm/26-34 lpm at 1500-2000 psi/105-
140 bar.
2. Make certain the hydraulic power source is equipped
with a relief valve set to open at 2100-2250 psi/145-
155 bar maximum.
INSTALL TOOL BIT
1. Rotate the latch on the breaker foot downward
(pointing away from the tool).
2. Insert the tool bit into the foot and pull the latch up to
lock the tool bit in place.
CONNECT HOSES
1. Wipe all hose couplers with a clean, lint-free cloth
before making connections.
2. Connect the hoses from the hydraulic power source
to the tool fittings or quick disconnects. It is a good
practice to connect return hoses first and discon-
nect them last to minimize or avoid trapped pressure
within the tool.
3. Observe flow indicators stamped on hose couplers
to ensure that fluid flow is in the proper direction.
The female coupler on the tool hose is the inlet cou-
pler.
4. Move the hydraulic circuit control valve to the ON
position to operate the tool.
NOTE:
If uncoupled hoses are left in the sun, pressure in-
crease within the hoses may make them difficult to
connect. When possible, connect the free ends of
the hoses together.
OPERATION PROCEDURES
1. Observe all safety precautions.
2. Install the appropriate tool bit for the job.
3. Place the bit firmly on the surface to be broken.
4. Squeeze the trigger to start the breaker. Adequate
down pressure is very important. When the tool bit
breaks through the obstruction or becomes bound,
release the trigger and reposition the tool bit.
OPERATION
12 ► BR87 User Manual
•
Make sure all couplers are wiped clean before con-
nection.
•
The hydraulic circuit control valve must be in the
“OFF” position when coupling or uncoupling hydrau-
lic tools. Failure to do so may result in damage to
the quick couples and cause overheating of the hy-
draulic system.
•
Always store the tool in a clean dry space, safe from
damage or pilferage.
•
Make sure the circuit PRESSURE hose (with male
quick disconnect) is connected to the “IN” port. The
circuit RETURN hose (with female quick disconnect)
is connected to the opposite port. Do not reverse cir-
cuit flow. This can cause damage to internal seals.
•
Always replace hoses, couplings and other parts
with replacement parts recommended by Stanley
Hydraulic Tools. Supply hoses must have a mini-
mum working pressure rating of 2500 psi/172 bar.
•
Do not exceed the rated flow and pressure. See
Specifications in this manual for correct flow rate
and pressure rating. Rapid failure of the internal
seals may result.
•
Always keep critical tool markings, such as warning
stickers and tags legible.
•
Do not force a small breaker to do the job of a large
breaker.
•
Keep tool bit sharp for maximum breaker perfor-
mance. Make sure that tool bits are not chipped or
rounded on the striking end.
•
Never operate a breaker without a tool bit or without
holding it against the work surface. This puts exces-
sive strain on the breaker foot.
•
Tool repair should be performed by experienced
personnel only.
•
Make certain that the recommended relief valves
are installed in the pressure side of the system.
•
Do not use the tool for applications for which it was
not intended.

ACCUMULATOR TESTING
PROCEDURE
To check or charge the accumulator the following equip-
ment is required:
31254 Charge Kit: which includes the following.
•
Accumulator Tester (Part Number 02835)
•
Charging Assembly (P/N 15304)
(P/N 15304 includes a liquid filled gauge with snub
valve, hose and fittings.)
•
NITROGEN bottle with an 1000 psi/70 bar minimum
charge. (Not included in 31254 Charge Kit.)
1.
CAUTION
This assembly contains nitrogen under pressure
Remove the valve cap assembly from the breaker.
2. Remove the protective cap and loosen the 5/8-inch
hex locking nut on the tool charging valve 1-1/2
turns.
3. Holding the chuck end of Accumulator Tester (P/N
02835) turn the gauge fully counterclockwise to en-
sure that the stem inside the chuck is completely
retracted.
4. Thread the tester onto the accumulator charg-
ing valve. Do not advance the gauge-end into the
chuck-end. Turn as a unit. Seat the chuck on the
accumulator charging valve and hand tighten only.
5. Advance the valve stem of the tester by turning the
gauge-end clockwise until a pressure is read on the
gauge (charge pressure should be 700-900 psi/48-
62 bar).
6. If pressure is OK unscrew the gauge-end from the
chuck to retract the stem, then unscrew the entire
tester assembly from the accumulator charging
valve. If pressure is low, charge the accumulator as
described in the following paragraph.
7. Tighten the 5/8-inch hex locking nut on the tool
charging valve. Be careful not to overtighten. Install
the protective cap and valve cap assembly.
ACCUMULATOR CHARGING
1. Perform steps 1 through 4 of the accumulator test-
ing procedure above.
2. Connect the chuck of the charging assembly to the
charging valve on the accumulator tester or, if pre-
ferred, remove the tester from the charging valve
and connect the charging assembly chuck directly
to the charging valve.
3. Adjust the regulator to the charging pressure of 800
psi/55 bar.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to set the gauge at 850-900
psi/59-62 bar to overcome any pressure drop
through the charging system.
4. Open the valve on the charging assembly hose.
5. When the accumulator is fully charged close the
valve on the charging assembly hose and remove
the charging assembly chuck from the accumulator
tester or tool charging valve.
If the accumulator tester has been used, be sure to
turn the gauge-end fully counterclockwise before re-
moving the tester from the charging valve of the tool.
6. Tighten the 5/8-inch hex locking nut on the tool
charging valve and replace the protective cap.
7. Replace the valve cap assembly.
GENERAL SERVICE NOTES
1. If the breaker is repainted after servicing, be sure to
mask off the vent in the valve cap assembly. Do not
allow paint to enter the IN and OUT ports or the bore
of the foot assembly.
2. If the handle grips need to be replaced.
a. Remove the old grips and clean the handle.
b. Wash the new grips and the handle clean and
dry, simply push or drive the grips on. DO NOT
lubricate the parts. The grips will not be secure
on the handle if any grease or oil is used.
CHARGING THE ACCUMULATOR
BR87 User Manual ◄ 15
UNDERWATER MODEL
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE

BR87 User Manual ◄ 21
For underwater hydraulic tools the applications are
broken down into four quadrants depending on
type of tool and method of operation.
The types of tools are percussive and rotational,
each with different characteristics allowing for dif-
ferent depth operation. With percussive tools, the
nitrogen accumulator PSI must counter the in-
crease in ambient pressure found at lower depths.
Since there is a maximum PSI for percussive tools
they are limited to certain depths. Rotational tools
do not have accumulators and thus capable of
deeper depths.
The methods are broken into diver operated or
remote operated vehicle (ROV). ROV's can reach
lower depths and with an on-board hydraulic
power source that is depth compensated, can
operate hydraulic tools at depths of thousands of
feet. ROV operation is still limited to the tool, for
example a percussive tool has the same depth
limitation whether ROV or diver operated.
