Finally fixed the russian power hammer!

Not knowing what the internal mechanism of the hammer is, if there is a "slack belt clutch" setup inside, and the motor is 3 phase, you may be running it reversed. When the clutch is on the drive side of the belt, the treadle is harder to push, and can "pump" like it seems to in the video. Just a thought, I could be entirely wrong.

No, it is the same spring mechanism as yours, just with a guard. 

This mechanism is/was popular in Italy. I am interested in the clutch on yours, because this type of hammer is very artful in its simplicity; very little to go wrong, not much that can't be fixed.
