A method and an apparatus for monitoring the operation of a percussion device, which percussion device comprises a percussion piston and a pressure channel for supplying pressure medium to the percussion device for moving the percussion piston. The method and the apparatus measure pressure pulsation of the pressure medium acting in the pressure channel, which pressure pulsation is depicted as a pressure curve. From pressure pulsation are determined parameters depicting the operating state of the percussion device and the operating state of the percussion device is determined on the basis of the parameters. In addition, an arrangement for controlling the operation of the percussion device on the basis of the operating state of the percussion device. |
