dkaschner Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 James, it's great to know that you are the USA dealer for Anyang! I have a 33 lb. Anyang that I bought (used) 2 years ago. I am just getting to the point where I am ready to set it up in my attached garage smithy. The floor is poured concrete and I am not opposed to cutting a hole for footings if that is recommended. I would really appreciate more information on the base... dimensions, type of concrete (acrylic etc...). I have a stash of 3/8" plate to build the base from and 1/2" plate to use as the base. It would also be great to have an idea of what you you would recommend I check and/or maintenance steps I should perform before placing the hammer in operation after sitting idle for about 2 1/2 years. Any help you might offer is greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesrjohnson Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Congratulations on your Anyang 33. You are going to love this machine. Can you send me your email address and I will send you the dimensions and pictures of the base. I build the base out of 1/4 sheet steel and weld threaded rods at the bottom. I fill the base with concrete (regular sackrete), then put a 3/4 inch piece of plywood on the top between the concrete and the hammer. I also weld angle iron tabs that I anchor to the floor. Again, I will take pictures of the base. Call me and I can take you through the maintenance proceedures. James 940 6274529 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkaschner Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Oops, almost forgot. I will call tomorrow, the 29th if you have a few minutes to go over some of the procedures. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesrjohnson Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Dan, how did the installation go? Is the hammer up and running? James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkaschner Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 James, looks like the installation is going to hav to wait until sometime early next year. The Holidays are getting in the way of working in the smithy right now. Everything seems pretty straight-forward. It is a matter of cutting have cutting and welding at this point. I'll keep you posted when the build starts. Thanks again for all of your help. I really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackmat Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hi everybody, this my first post to this forum. About anyang c41-40. I own it for a few months now. Bought directly from factory, because there is no dealer in my country. Before first run, I checked all the bolts, cleared the interior from oil/sand/bits of iron, installed the missing grease zerks and greased, filled the oil pump. It runs regularly since then. It has a really powerful strike, and it also very controllable at the same time. I'm really glad, that I made 1m x 2m x 1m concrete foundation instead of 0,8m x 1,4m x 0,6m recommended by factory. Some questions about lubricating appeared after this months. What kind of oil should be used? Right now I fill it with 68 viscosity grade oil for slideways. What can be done, to prevent oil dropping from the tup and burning on the hot steel? Sometimes oil mist can be smelled, sometimes from the tup and other times from the back side, where there is an opening to the interior. I wonder is that a result of wrong oil or just annoying feature of the air-hammer? Matej Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesrjohnson Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Matej, I don't think we have met before, I'm the USA dealer for Anyang. Sounds like your hammer is fine, but you are getting to much oil. (which can' t hurt anything, but it can be messy) I instal flow control valves on all my hammers, there simple, reliable, and they install in 5-10 minutes. Shoot me an email, james@anyangusa.net . I've been using/selling the valves for almost four years now and have'nt had a problem yet. I can also help discuss oil weights, general maintance, or any other questions. Hope this helps.
