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.

The wagon frame comprises a frame with the operator's cab/platform mounted on the
left. Controls for tramming and drilling are installed in the operator's cab/platform.

14
Operator’s instructions
1. General

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 on the track frames.

Hydraulic pumps and compressor are driven by the diesel engine.

Boom system
The boom system consists of inner/outer boom bodies, boom head, feed holder and
associated hydraulic cylinders. The boom system is controlled by directional valves
for positioning the feed with the rock drill at different distances and directions.

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, electrical controls
and safety devices.

15

Heating
The heated air enters via vents at the front edge of the windscreen. To heat the cab,
set the fan (2) and temperature control knob (3) in the position for heating (turn
clockwise). Align the air vents inward.

Note
The air is heated using the heat from the diesel engine radiator. This means that the
engine must be warmed-up before full heat output can be achieved in the cab.

Defrosting
To defrost the cab, switch on the heating, close the vents (c) that are located under the
operator's seat and align the vents at the front edge of the windscreen inward.

To dehumidify the air, switch on the air conditioning fan (1), close the round vents
(d) on the air conditioning unit and align the rectangular vents (e) towards the wind-
screen.

Note
The use of the air conditioning for dehumidification is NOT recommended at temper-
atures below 10 °C. Use the fan for air conditioning (1) instead to recirculate the air
in the cab and switch off the air conditioning with button (4).

Cooling
To obtain cooler air in the cab, turn on the fan (1) and switch on the air conditioning
using button (4). Turn off the heat using control knob (3) (anticlockwise until it stops)
and align the air vents inward (d).

When the air conditioning is on and the heating is switched off then the heater fan
starts automatically at a low speed to draw fresh air into the cab.

6. Use Track oscillation (6) (8) (See illustration: Drill panel) to move the weight of
the drill rig forward and backward as appropriate when dealing with 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
When the drill rig reverses, a horn sounds and a warning lamp comes on.

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

General tramming
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.

97
Operator’s instructions
4. Operating

Adapt the speed to the terrain. Always check the terrain where the drill rig will be
manoeuvred.

Checks during drilling


Monitor drilling performance and pay particular attention to the points below:

Should anything out of the ordinary occur, stop drilling and clear up the trouble or
ask service personnel to investigate.

1. Rock drill :

• Abnormal impact hose vibration.


- Check the pressure in the rock drill accumulators.

• Make sure ECL and HECL lubrication is working satisfactorily.


- Make sure lubricating oil seeps out of the pipes during auto-drilling. The
lubricating oil pressure must be 2-10 bar on the ECL pressure gauge.

• Abnormal leakage from the rock drill.


• If damper pressure is lower than 35 bar or higher than 120 bar, percussion will
stop automatically ( For drill rig COP 1800/2500/4050 series )
- Stop drilling immediately and ask service personnel to investigate.

2. Hydraulic system:

• Note all pressure gauges.


- They should not show a sudden abnormal pressure.
• Check that the hydraulic oil temperature does not exceed 60 °C.

Auto-drilling with Coprod pipes


1. Drill until the rock drill has reached its bottom end position. The joint between
drill pipes and the rock drill's adapter will be between both jaws.

7. Angle instruments

General
Depending on the equipment level chosen, the drill rig can be equipped with one of
the following alternatives:

• Angle and depth measurement instruments with sight.


• Angle, depth and laser plane instruments with sight.

In both cases, the system consists of a number of sensors. These sensors are con-
nected to the I/O unit and the LCD display through the CAN bus and the system is
presented on and is handled from the LCD display.

These instructions cover the complete instrument with all available options. If the
drill rig has fewer pieces of equipment, only the relevant sections need to be studied.

Angle instrument with sight


This drill rig is equipped with an electronic angle indication system consisting of an
angle sensor on the boom and feeder, sight and graphic presentation on an LCD dis-
play. The sight 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 sight back to the
same reference point the entire time regardless of how the drill rig travels, the instru-
ment calculates how the feed inclination must be changed to maintain the same bear-
ing. The angle sensor on the boom mounting allows the instrument to compensate for
the turning of the boom the same way as when the sight 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 function,
i.e. you do not need to use the ESC key to go back to the main menu to select them.

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

and the actual value are the same.
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.

Drilled length instrument


In order to control drilling length and drilling rate, the system is equipped with a
drilled length sensor. This is mounted on the rock drill cradle 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.

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


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.

125
Operator’s instructions
7. Angle instruments

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 rock drill 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 measurement 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.

Operation
1. Move the rig to the drill site and set it up in the desired position.

126
Operator’s instructions
7. Angle instruments

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.

7. Activate the laser plane function if a laser reference is to be used.

8. 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.

9. 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.

10. 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.

11. 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.
