General system description
General description of the drill rig

This drill rig is a fully diesel-hydraulic drill rig designed for surface drilling applica-
tions such as in quarries and on construction sites.
The drill rig consists of the following main components: (See illustration under Gen-
eral Description)

12 Hydraulic systems
13 Air system
14 Boom
15 Dust collector DCT
Wagon frame with track frames

The diesel engine, chassis, dust collector, hydraulic system, air system and boom sys-
tem are mounted on the wagon frame.
16
1. General
The wagon frame comprises a frame with the operator's cabin/platform mounted on
the left. Controls for tramming and drilling are installed in the operator's cabin/plat-
form.
The track frames are carried on journals in the wagon frame. When tramming on une-
ven ground the drill rig is balanced by means of two compensating cylinders.
Each track frame has its own service brake. The brakes are operated by two separate
control systems.
The bodywork covers the diesel engine, the compressor, the various lubrication
tanks, the valves and the hydraulic hoses. Inspection covers allow easy access to the
various machine components. The covers are secured in the open position by means
of gas springs.
The dust collector is mounted at the back of the rig on the right-hand side.
Power pack
This hydraulic drill rig is powered by a turbocharged, water-cooled diesel engine.
The diesel engine is equipped with a monitoring system that includes automatic shut-
down functions.
The drill rig is driven by two traction motors with gears. The traction motors with
gears are mounted in the track frames.
The hydraulic pumps and the compressor are driven by a diesel engine.
Exhaust filtering
Regeneration is a process that burns out the soot from the diesel engine's particulate
filter, which cleans the exhaust gases. In most cases regeneration starts fully automat-
ically and without affecting the rig's performance. Regeneration can be performed in
two different modes depending on the diesel engine's rotation speed and the calcu-
lated soot content in the particulate filter amongst other things.
Boom system
The boom system consists of boom body, boom head, feed holder and associated
hydraulic cylinders. The boom system is controlled by directional valves for posi-
tioning the feed with the rock drilling machine at different distances and directions.
17
1. General
Dust collector
The hydraulically driven dust collector features automatic cleaning and consists of a
filter unit, pre-separator, suction fan and suction hose.
Electrical system
The 24 V electrical system is supplied with current by an alternator and two batteries.
The electrical system comprises starting equipment, work lighting, electric controls
and safety devices.
The emergency stop buttons/cables are connected in series with the diesel engine cut-
out system. As soon as an emergency stop button/cable is activated, the diesel engine
will be stopped immediately. Reset the emergency stop buttons before restarting the
engine. The engine cannot be started while one of the emergency stops is still acti-
vated.
For further details, see separate wiring diagram.
For details of the diesel engine, see separate diesel engine instructions.
Hydraulic system
The hydraulic system consists of six hydraulic pumps, oil cooler, hydraulic oil reser-
voir, valves, hoses, etc.
The six hydraulic pumps provide hydraulic pressure as follows:

19
1. General
The compressor is driven directly by the diesel engine
The compressor element is lubricated by an air-oil mixture. The mixture is separated

in the oil separator.
The system supplies air to the down-the-hole drilling machine and its lubricating sys-
tem HECL and to the dust collector for cleaning the filter.

Status field symbols

The status field on the engine display shows information to the operator in the form
of coloured symbols. The information shown is an indication or a warning. Indica-
tions are green while warnings are either yellow or red.
• Green - Indication that a specific function is activated, e.g. compressor loaded.

• Yellow - Warning to indicate that something is not in its normal state and that the
operator must undertake some form of remedy. Machine not in acute danger of
malfunction.
• Red - Warning, indicates that something is in a critical condition. The engine is
switched off when there is significant risk of machine breakdown.
Note
Yellow symbols can become red if the status of the fault worsens.

Regeneration
WARNING
damage to property
General
Regeneration is a process that burns the soot from the diesel engine's particle filter. In
most cases regeneration is started completely automatically and without affecting the
rig's performance. Regeneration can be run in two different modes depending on the
speed of the diesel engine and calculated soot level in the particle filter.
105
5. Operating
Automatic regeneration
1250 0263 55
When an automatic regeneration is started the symbol for high exhaust temperature
(A) is shown on the display.
Low speed regeneration

Low speed regeneration is allowed to start automatically when the engine speed falls
below 1500 rpm. Other conditions are that the coolant temperature must exceed +65
°C and the particulate filter's soot content has reached 30%.
High speed regeneration

High speed regeneration (HSR) is permitted to start automatically when the engine
speed falls exceeds 1500 rpm. Other conditions are that the cooling water tempera-
ture must exceed +65°C and the particle filter soot level reaches 60%.
Note
There may be a certain amount of delay in starting the automatic regeneration. Gen-
eral conditions such as fuel consumption, charge pressure and exhaust temperature
control whether it is started or not. Automatic regeneration is not permitted to start
when the soot level has reached 100%
Blocked regeneration
The automatic regeneration can be blocked if it is not appropriate to allow it to start
for any reason, for example:
106
5. Operating
• When exhaust venting equipment is fitted on the rig in connection with repairs.
• When personnel need to be on the rig's superstructure with the diesel engine
started.
• When vegetation or other flammable materials are in the immediate vicinity of the
exhaust gases.
1250 0263 56
B C D
To block automatic regeneration,(D) is selected in the display and the Enter key is
held depressed for 5 seconds, then Automatic regeneration blocked (B) is dis-
played.
Return to automatic regeneration by starting and completing a forced regeneration ,

or by restarting the drill rig.
Note
Automatic regeneration can only be blocked when the diesel engine is started. Block-
ing is automatically reset when the ignition is switched off/on.
107
5. Operating
Forced regeneration
1250 0263 58
E F G
Forced regeneration can be started between 1200-1800 rpm. The conditions are the
same as for automatic, except that it is permitted to start at a soot level between 15-
100%.
• For forced regeneration, the symbol (F) is selected in the F1 menu in the display
and the Enter key is held depressed for 5 seconds.
• When forced regeneration has been started it is shown with the symbol high
exhaust temperature (E) .
• To return to automatic regeneration again ensure that the diesel engine's rotation
speed is higher than 1500 rpm, or restart the drill rig.
108
5. Operating
Warning of high soot content in the particulate filter.
1250 0263 59
The warning symbol for high soot content in the particulate filter (H) is shown
when the soot content has reached 80%.
• If blocking of automatic regeneration is activated when the warning symbol is

shown then return as soon as possible to automatic regeneration by means of a
forced regeneration being started and completed, or by means of the drill rig
being restarted so that an automatic regeneration can be started.
Note
If it is inappropriate to run a regeneration because of increased fire risk, move the
drill rig to a suitable place before the blocking is deactivated.

8. Use Track oscillation (6) (8) (See illustration: Drill panel) to move the weight of
the drill rig forward and backward as appropriate when passing obstacles. This
will maintain the rig's stability even in uneven terrain.
Note
It is extremely important to use track oscillation to maintain the stability of the drill
rig.
Note
A horn and a beacon indicate that the drill rig is reversing.
Note
If one crawler track is operated while the other is stationary the tracks are subjected
to unnecessary stresses and this should therefore be avoided.
Checking after tramming

All emergency stop wires and all emergency stops must be checked after tramming.
Tramming - General principles
Tramming, general
Direct the boom system straight ahead before opening the track oscillation lock.
While tramming, the track oscillation lock must be open so that the caterpillar tracks
can move freely whenever there is a change in terrain. Use track oscillation to keep
the chassis frame as horizontal as possible.
Adapt the speed to the terrain. Always check the terrain where the drill rig will be
manoeuvred.

1. Operate the feeder until the spike is approx. 10 cm from the rock.
2. Make sure that the rotation lever is in neutral.
3. Move the drill bit forward until it is pressed against the rock.
4. Switch on high percussion pressure for several seconds.
5. Switch off the percussion when the chuck has loosened.
6. Unscrew the old drill bit by hand and replace with a new one.

8. Angle instruments
General
The angle instrument consists of the following components:
• Angle instrument with aim device (standard equipment).

• GPS compass (option).
• Drill depth instrument (standard equipment).
• Laser plane instrument (option).
In all cases, the system consists of a number of sensors. These sensors are connected
to the I/O unit and the LCD display through the CAN BUS communication and the
system is presented on, and is operated from, the LCD display.
Angle instrument with sight

The aim device makes it possible to drill parallel holes by selecting a reference point
before the first hole is drilled. This reference point is then maintained throughout the
entire round or as long as the bearing is the same. By turning the aim device back to
the same reference point the entire time regardless of how the drill rig travels, the
instrument calculates how the feed inclination must be changed to maintain the same
bearing. The angle sensor on the boom mounting allows the instrument to compen-
sate for the turning of the boom the same way as when the aim device is turned.
Menus
The angle instrument is accessed by pressing button F2 in the left-hand edge of the
display. These three buttons always provide direct access to the respective functions,
i.e. you do not need to use the ESC key to go back to the main menu to select them.

Table: Directional instrument - graphic display mode

a Actual inclination front/back: Shows the actual inclination of the
feeder. When the feeder is positioned perfectly, the desired value
and the actual value are the same.
b Desired inclination front/back: Set the desired inclination in
relation to the reference point (sight). Mark the field by moving with
the arrow keys until the field is blue and then press Enter to get a
flashing cursor under the digits. Set the desired hole inclination
using the arrow keys and press Enter to confirm.
c Actual inclination left/right: Shows the actual inclination of the
feeder. When the feeder is positioned perfectly, the desired value
and the actual value are the same.
142
d Desired inclination left/right: Set the desired inclination in relation

to the reference point (sight). Mark the field by moving with the arrow
keys until the field is blue and then press Enter to get a flashing
cursor under the digits. Set the desired hole inclination using the
arrow keys and press Enter to confirm.
e Reset: Resetting the drilled length instrument. Before the start of
each hole, the drill bit should be positioned against the ground. Use
the arrow keys to mark the button by the symbol and press Enter.
The button will then become blue. Current drilled length should show
0. The display will continue to show the angle instrument menu. This
reset is also available in the drilled length instrument's menu.
f Graphic: The graphic shows deviation from the desired inclination
via a red line drawn in the direction of the deviation. The feeder
spike must be positioned in the opposite direction of the line to
reduce the deviation. When the feeder is set with the desired
amount of inclination, only a red dot is shown in the centre of the
graphic.
Note
If the total deviation of the lateral tilt and the forwards/backwards tilt
exceeds 3º, the lamp on the side of the display window will light red.
g Activating Auto Zoom: when the deviating angle is less than 1º
the outer circle changes over to indicate 1º instead of 5º.
Note
Remember that the desired angle values should always be specified in relation to the
setting of the sight. If the sight is not to be used, it should be set straight ahead and
the desired values adjusted to 0.
GPS compass (option)

When the drill rig is equipped with an electronic angle indication system, which con-
sists of angle sensor on the boom and feeder, aim device, GPS compass and graphic
presentation on an LCD display, the aim device is set making it possible to drill paral-
lel holes by selecting a reference point before the first hole is drilled. This reference
point is then maintained throughout the entire round or as long as the bearing is the
same. The bearing is then kept to the same reference point automatically, regardless
of how the drill rig travels, without the need for changing the aim device. The instru-
ment calculates how feeder inclination must be changed to maintain the same bear-
ing.
The direct selection menu F4 contains the settings for the GPS compass.

Note
After starting up the rig's electrical system it may take several minutes before the
symbol becomes green. This is because the antennas have to establish contact with
the satellites.
If the symbol does not become green then this may be due to several causes, e.g.:
• No satellites available
• The antennas are covered by snow
• Open circuit in cable between the antennas and the electronic unit
144
If the symbol remains green, deactivate the GPS compass in the F4 menu and use the
aim device in the traditional way.
Drilled length instrument

In order to control drilling length and penetration rate, the system is equipped with a
drilled length sensor. This is mounted on the upper sheave and is connected to the
display together with other components in the system. The drilled length instrument
can be configured to show either the actual drilled length, hole length measurement
or the vertical depth, vertical depth measurement. In the latter case, the instrument
takes into account the hole inclination, and the value that is displayed is therefore less
than the actual drilled length.
Menus
The drilled length instrument is accessed by pressing button F3 in the left-hand edge
of the display. This provides direct access to the drilled length instrument menu.

the drill bit should be positioned against the ground. Use the arrow
keys to mark the button next to the symbol and press Enter. The
button will then become blue. Current drilled length (b) should
show 0. This reset is also available in the angle instrument menu.
i Activation of the laser plane function: Mark the field by moving
with the arrow keys until the button is blue and then press Enter to
confirm. An indicator will be lit in the status field of the display
when the function is activated. Once the laser receiver has
registered the laser plane, the indicator will change colour from
grey to green and the drilled length value will then be calculated
from the laser plane level.
Laser plane instrument (option)

As a supplement to the drilled length instrument, a laser plane can be used as the ref-
erence level instead of the local ground level using a laser beam and a receiver on the
drill rig.
This requires that the distance between the drill bit and the laser receiver be entered
when the instrument is installed (see the section "Calibration"). Once the laser
receiver on the drilling machine cradle has passed the laser plane, the indicated
drilled length is related to the laser plane instead of ground level. The indicated
drilled length will then "jump" up to the pre-programmed value and continue meas-
urement from there. The laser beam must be positioned in such a way that nothing
comes between the laser beam and the laser receiver on the drill rig.
Menus
The laser plane function is activated in the drilled length menu. Function indication is
down in the status field of the display.

Basic settings
However, if one of the following takes place then the basic settings must be reset.
• The display unit has been replaced.

• A drill rod/rod of a type other than that which was delivered with the rig is used.
• A DTH hammer other than that supplied with the rig is used (only applies to DTH
drill rigs).
Setup of drill rod

1. Set the drill steel length via the menus, Settings/Logging in/Setting the drill rod
length. See also the section Controls/Display for engine and direction instruments/
Menus.
Select using the arrow keys and confirm with Enter.
It is also possible to set drill steel lengths manually by selecting a chosen length
(a) and then setting a user value in the box that appears.
Note
If no selection is made then the hole length measurement will not work.
2. Exit with ESC.
151
Setup for laser plane (option)

This section only applies if the rig is equipped with the laser plane instrument option.
A drill rod and a drill bit must be fitted.
1. Operate the cradle up towards mechanical stop.
2. Measure the length between the laser sensor and the drill bit's lower section.
3. Go to the menu, Settings/Logging in/Laser sensor, and enter the distance at (a).
Operation
1. Move the rig to the drill site and set it up in the desired position.
2. Select a reference point and turn the sight so that the arrow points towards the ref-
erence point. The reference point should be as far away as possible (at least 2 km)
if it does not lie in direct line with the row of holes in order to minimise angle
error. If the reference point lies in line with the row of holes, it can be as close as
10 m from the last hole of the row without any angle errors arising.
3. Set the desired hole inclination front/back or left/right.
4. Position the feed beam so that the red line in the graphic is reduced to a red dot in
the centre. Once this has occurred, the desired angle value is the same as the actual
value.
5. Press the feeder spike against the ground by using the feed extension.
6. Set the desired hole length / vertical depth in the drilled length instrument's menu
if automatic drill stop is to be used.
152
7. Position the drill bit against the ground and reset the drilled length instrument
either directly in the angle instrument's menu or by first selecting the drilled length
instrument's menu and then resetting it. This reset must be also be done if the laser
plane function is to be used.
8. Drill until the preset depth has been reached and drilling stops automatically or
drill until the desired drilled length is shown in the drilled length menu and switch
off drilling manually.
9. Extract the drill string and move the drill rig to the next hole or, if the whole is
close by, turn the boom to the next hole.
10. If the drill rig is moved, the sight should be turned until it is aligned with the refer-
ence point. The instrument will then take the new drill rig position into considera-
tion to make the next hole parallel to the previous one. If additional holes can be
drilled without changing the setup, the sight does not have to be adjusted.

164
9. Options
What is a progressive lubricant distributor

The word “progressive” comes from the special way this type of lubricant distributor
works, e.g. it is the lubricant that is pressurised and then drives the pistons inside the
distributor. The pistons move in a predetermined manner and this pattern of move-
ment is repeated over and over again. Each piston must complete its movement
before the next piston can move, regardless of whether the flow of lubricant is con-
stant or irregular. The pistons are dependent on one another and it is technically
impossible for a connected lubrication point to be skipped.
Progressive lubricant distributor, type SSV

• Have pistons as the only moving part, i.e. no springs, balls or gaskets that can
break
• Reliably distributes lubricant to the connected lubrication points
• Gives 0.2 cm 3 lubricant per output and piston stroke
• Can be plugged to obtain double, triple, etc. the amount per output (see “Plugging
the outlet”)
• Can have 6 to 22 outputs
• Makes it possible to connect several lubrication points to one lubrication area.
Flow in the distributor

• The following 5 illustrations show what happens inside the distributor step by
step.
Note
For purposes of simplification, lubricant distribution to outputs 2, 7, 5, 3 and 1 are
shown. The other outputs receive their amounts in order, but are not shown here.
Step 1
• Lubricant enters the distributor and then follows the direction of the arrow to the
right-hand end of piston A
• The pressure of the lubricant presses piston A to the left. The lubricant in front of
the left-hand end of the piston is pressed out through output 2.
165
9. Options
Figure: Fig. 18 - Step 1, D=output 2
Step 2
• When piston A has reached its left end position, a channel opens to the right-hand
end of piston B.
• The lubricant moves in the direction of the arrow and moves piston B to the left.
The lubricant in front of the left-hand end is pressed out through output 7.
Figure: Fig. 19 - Step 2, A=output 7
Step 3
• When piston B has reached its left end position, a channel opens to the right-hand
end of piston C
• The lubricant moves in the direction of the arrow and moves piston C to the left.
The lubricant in front of the left-hand end is pressed out through output 5.
166
9. Options
Figure: Fig. 20 - Step 3 B=output 5
Step 4
• The channel to the right-hand end of piston D is now open.
• The lubricant presses piston D to the left. The lubricant in front of the left-hand
end of the piston is pressed out through output 3.
Step 5
• Piston D opens the channel to the left-hand side of piston A.
• The lubricant presses the piston to the right. The lubricant in front of the piston is
pressed out through output 1.
• Pistons B to D are then moved in order from left to right.
• A complete lubrication cycle has now been completed and will begin again.
167
9. Options
When lubricant flow has been interrupted

• The pistons stop
• No lubricant reaches the lubrication points
• When the flow starts again, the pistons begin to move from the exact spot they
stopped.
Functionality check
• The primary distributor (Fig. 23) and secondary distributors are connected with
main lines (G). The pump is connected to the primary distributor.
• If a piston in any of the blocks gets jammed or if an output is blocked, the lubri-
cant distributor will stop.
• Thanks to the design of the system, a blockage in the primary distributor will
propagate and the entire lubrication system will stop (all pistons in all distributors
stand still).
• The simple design also ensures that a blocked lubrication point is never forgotten.
• Since the pump is still pumping out lubricant and the distributors have stopped,
the lubricant must go somewhere. Pressure in the system increases and the block
becomes apparent when lubricant leaks from the safety valve (Fig. 25).

• Lubricant distributors can be equipped with an indicator pin. The pin is secured in
the end of a piston and follows its movements.
• When the system is blocked, the pin also stops.
1250 0096 19

• The pump's safety valve is used to check the entire lubrication system. If the pump
is working and lubricant leaks from the valve, there is a stop in the system.

Thread lubrication
General
Function
Drill rod threads are lubricated by means of spraying grease on them through a nozzle
which is located on the upper breakout table.
The grease comes from a compressed air powered pump (B) which is located in a
grease container (A) on the front of the chassis frame. Grease is pumped from the
grease container to the nozzle where it is sprayed on the thread using compressed air
from a separate air line to the nozzle.

Operation and adjustment

The direction of the nozzle must be adjusted so that the grease reaches the male
thread when a pipe is in breakout position.
The threads must be greased during both drilling and retraction.
During drilling: Move switch S449 on the rod handling panel forwards before a new
pipe is joined on.
During retraction: Move switch S449 on the rod handling panel forwards before the
adapter on the rotation unit is threaded onto the pipe in breakout position.

• The water tank must be filled with clean water and possibly dust binding additive
through the filler valve on top of the tank.
• The tank can be drained through the valve on the bottom of the tank.
• The water supply from the tank can be turned off during maintenance work on the
system using the valve (5).
• Normally, a small amount of water is used to dampen the drill dust and bind it into
larger particles for dust binding or to build up the wall of the hole. In this case the
switch S448 must be in AUTO position (b).
• If it is necessary to add a larger amount of water, e.g. if a pocket of clay is hit,
switch S448 can be put to MANUAL position (a). The switch will spring back to
AUTO position when it is released.
• If there is no need to add any water, the system can be turned off by moving switch
S448 into the OFF position (c).
To prevent clogging suction hoses and filters, the DCT should be switched off if the
dust is damp or if water is being flushed out of the hole. Switch S181, position (c).
When the compressor discharges or the engine is turned off, the air pressure in the

Electrical preheating
General
Hoses and valves for air and water can be heated with heating coils before starting
up. If temperature is above -10°C then no heating is required as a rule.
Heating is switched on maximum 5-10 minutes before starting the engine and is
switched off when the engine has started.
1250 0207 49
Figure: Switch for electrical preheating
Do not allow the heating to be switched on for more than 10 minutes so that the bat-
tery is not discharged.
Do not forget to switch off the heating when the engine has started.

RC - Reverse Circulation
General
RC, or Reverse Circulation, is a method for transporting cuttings and the collection of
cutting samples. Unlike conventional drilling, when cuttings are drawn up by flush-
ing air between the drill steel and the borehole wall, the cuttings are drawn up with
flushing air in a separate tube inside the drill rod.
The system covers the entire drill string, i.e. drill bit, down-the-hole drilling machine
and drill steel, as well as devices for the further transportation and division of cut-
tings in small samples.
For documentation on the rotation unit, see separate instructions.
For specific documentation on drill rods and the down-the-hole drilling machine,
refer to the documentation of the supplier in question.
Atlas Copco assumes no responsibility for the durability of the rig if rig equipment
from another supplier is fitted.

Drill bit and seal ring

RC drill bits are similar to conventional drill bits externally. They break the rock in
the same way and they are sharpened in the same way.
185
9. Options
The main difference is the route of the flushing air and the cuttings. The clean flush-
ing air is led to hole bottom through slits on the outside of the drill bit. On the lower
part of the drill bit are two openings where the mixture of cuttings and flushing air
each flow into separate channels. The two lower channels merge together into one
upper channel about 100 mm into the drill bit.
Since two channels are combined into one, the upper channel can be worn down to
become oval. This can lead to rapid wear of the down-the-hole drilling machine's
inner tube. Drill bits exhibiting such wear should be removed from operation.
During normal drilling flushing air and cuttings are routed up between the hole wall
and the outside of the drill rods, but during RC drilling, preferably no cuttings should
be routed this way. Instead everything should be routed into the drill bit's two open-
ings. For this reason, there is a seal ring just above the drill bit. The difference in
diameter between the seal ring and the drill bit should not be more than 3 mm.
A good seal between the seal ring and the borehole wall is the most important factor
for collecting as much of the cuttings as possible.
Down-the-hole drilling machine

RC down-the-hole drilling machines resemble normal down-the-hole drilling
machines, but they have a hardened inner tube to guide up cuttings and flushing air.
The inner tube is a wear part and in most cases it is easily replaced through the upper
part of the down-the-hole drilling machine.
Guide
1250 0223 62
A guide, which is normally slightly smaller than the drill bit, stabilises the down-the-
hole drilling machine and results in less hole deviation. It is primarily used in hori-
zontal or inclined holes.
The guide is mounted between the lowest drill rod and the down-the-hole drilling
machine.
A mounted guide also makes it easier to work loose after jamming.
186
9. Options
Drill rod
Double tubes are used during RC drilling, one inside the other. The compressed air
for the down-the-hole drilling machine is routed between the inner and the outer tube
and then back, together with the cuttings, in the inner tube.
The outer tubes are threaded. The inner tubes are held in place in the outer tubes with
circlips. There are three O-rings in the lower end of the inner tube.
Normally, a 6 m long drill rod with a diameter of 4” or 4”1/2 is used on the outer
tube.
Because the RC pipes are heavier than normal drill rods only 4 tubes may be loaded
in the carousel. The maximum number of tubes is then 4+1, that is 4 tubes in the car-
ousel and 1 tube in the feeder.
Thread adapter
The thread on the air swivel is suitable for the Metzke 4” drill rod. If another drill rod
is used then a thread adapter is required.
Spar adapter
In order to protect the thread on the air swivel or thread adapter directly above, a
short spar adapter is used. It has the same type of thread at both ends.
Air swivel
The air swivel guides in the compressed air between the outer and the inner drill rod.
Rotation unit
The rotation unit is similar to normal rotation units but has a hollow shaft which in
turn has a hardened inner tube for transporting air and cuttings.
Outlet swivel
The shaft that is routed through the rotation unit is the last rotating component. It has
its upper end in the outlet swivel.
Deflectors
The cuttings that flow out of the inner tubes do so at very high speed. Before they can
be routed further in a hose they must be slowed, which is achieved in two deflectors
in the outlet section. Both deflectors turn the cuttings/air flow 90 degrees. In order to
withstand the abrasion that the cuttings cause the deflectors are lined with ceramics
internally. The first deflector has a replaceable ceramic plate.
187
9. Options
Sample hoses
The sample hoses are made of 3" ID material handling hose, which is specially
designed for this type of work. There are two hoses, the upper removable hose from
the second deflector to a holder on the rear of the feed beam, and the lower stationary
hose from the holder to the cyclone.
Sample preparation components

The sampling components consist of a cyclone and a sample splitter. The cyclone and
the splitter must always be vertical when they are used, otherwise there may be une-
ven loading in the division and samples, which is not completely accurate.
There are two types of splitter, the cone splitter with intermediate chamber and the
“Jones riffle splitter”.
Cyclone
The cyclone is designed to separate cuttings and air, so that the cuttings sample can
be collected. A good cyclone normally collects more than 99% of the cuttings sample
- the remainder of the mixture of air and dust flows to a dust collector or to the atmos-
phere.
Jones riffle splitter
1 3
1250 0224 33

2 Jones riffle splitter
3 Hatch
4 Inspection hatch
The “Jones riffle splitter” consists of several levels of splitter which halve the sample
at each level until the final sample size is reached, normally 3 or 4 levels, which
results in 12.5% or 6.25% of the whole sample. The Jones riffle splitter is easy to use
and clean, provided that the cuttings are dry.
188
9. Options
The cuttings are collected in the cyclone's lower part during drilling. There is an
opening hatch between the cyclone and the Jones riffle splitter. When the hatch is
opened a vibrator starts that facilitates emptying.

5 Cone splitter
The cone splitter works by means of the whole sample being released down over the
top of a cone. At the base of the cone are one or two openings to collect the sample.
The size of the openings can be adjusted to collect the percentage required. The cone
splitter can provide a more precise division than the Jones riffle splitter, but is more
sensitive to set up.
There is an intermediate chamber between the cyclone and the cone splitter in which
the cuttings are collected during drilling. The passage between the cyclone and inter-
mediate chamber, and between the intermediate chamber and cone splitter, can be
closed with knife valves. When the lower knife valve is opened a vibrator starts that
facilitates emptying.

Drilling and sampling

It is assumed that the operator already has knowledge of normal drilling with the rig.
Drilling
Setting up for drilling is carried out in the same way as for normal drilling. It is
important that the cyclone and splitter are vertical.
Collaring is performed during normal drilling. During collaring it is appropriate to let

the knife valves (cone splitter) or the hatch (Jones riffle splitter) remain open in order
to check that the cuttings/air mixture are flowing through the cyclone. When this
takes place the lower knife valve/hatch is closed.
193
9. Options
Jamming takes place more easily during RC drilling than with conventional drilling.
A guide adapter above the down-the-hole drilling machine makes it easier to work
loose after jamming.
When gripping the drill rods with the drill-steel support or breakout table, it is impor-
tant not to do it further away than 300 mm from the thread, otherwise the tube may
break.
Sampling with the Jones riffle splitter

The hatch is closed during drilling. When a sample length is fully drilled the feed is
switched off. After a few seconds all the cuttings have entered the cyclone. At which
point the hatch between the cyclone and splitter is opened, so that the sample can
flow out and be collected. While the hatch is opened a vibrator starts in order to facil-
itate emptying. When the hatch has been closed drilling is resumed by switching on
the feed again.
Sampling with the cone splitter

The upper knife valve is open and the lower knife valve is closed during drilling, so
that the sample is collected in the intermediate chamber. When a sample length is
fully drilled the feed is switched off. After a few seconds all the cuttings have entered
the intermediate chamber. At which point the upper knife valve is closed while the
lower knife valve is opened, so that the sample can flow through the cone splitter and
be collected. While the lower knife valve is opened a vibrator starts in order to facili-
tate emptying. When the lower knife valve has been closed and the upper opened
drilling is resumed by switching on the feed again.
When the cuttings are moist, which makes handling of the sample more difficult,
both knife valves can be open during drilling. However, this should be avoided.
Daily maintenance
Cleaning
Cleaning the system should take place at the end of the work shift.
Access can take place in several ways:
• Rotating the cyclone and opening the cover plate.

• Two hatches on the intermediate chamber.
• Jones riffle splitter inspection hatch.
• Swinging the cone splitter out of the way.
Rotary actuators, cylinders and shafts must not be cleaned with high-pressure wash-
ing, because any penetrating water may damage the components.
