DPI MACHINE
This DPIS-1-HED machine includes a DPIS chassis with hydrostatic four wheel drive and butterfly front
jacks and stationary vertical rear jacks. The small heading carrier is designed with a single PRB3-50 boom
with HCF-16 feed and CH 38 060150 drifter, and includes a FOPS operator cab with extendable canopy.
The diesel tramming is powered by a Caterpillar C7 EPA Tier III diesel engine and the electric-hydraulic
drilling is powered by a 75 HP, 460V electric motor driving a three section gear pump for all drill, feed, and
boom functions. The drill, feed and boom functions may also be operated with diesel-hydraulic power. The
hydraulic motor driven cable reel is supplied with 350 ft of 2/0 AWG, Type GGC, 2000 VAC mining cable.
To clean holes, a water mist flushing system is included which uses mine supplied water with in-cab
misting controls - where the 40 CFM air compressor provides lubricated air to the front end of the drifter.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
MACHINE
This DPIS-1-HED machine includes a DPIS chassis with hydrostatic four wheel drive and front butterfly
jacks and stationary vertical rear jacks. The small heading carrier is designed with a single PRB3-50
boom with HCF-16 feed and CH 38 060150 drifter, and includes a FOPS operator cab with extendable
canopy. The diesel tramming and diesel-hydraulic drilling are powered by a Caterpillar C7 EPA Tier III
diesel engine and the electric-hydraulic drilling is powered by a 75 HP, 460V electric motor driving a
three section gear pump for all drill, feed, and boom functions. The hydraulic motor driven cable reel is
supplied with 350 ft of 2/0 AWG, Type GGC, 2000 VAC mining cable. To clean holes, a water mist
flushing system is included which uses mine supplied water with in-cab misting controls - where the 40
CFM air compressor provides lubricated air to the front end of the drifter.

STARTING THE ENGINE

The  WARM‐UP  idle  speed  allows  the  hydraulic  system  to  operate  cold  without 
adversely affecting its components. However, this idle speed causes diesel fuel 
to accumulate in the recesses of the exhaust manifold, which eventually weeps 
through the exhaust seals. It is therefore necessary to limit the operation time in 
the warm‐up mode to five minutes. 

Review Confined Spaces portion of Safety section prior to starting the machine 
in  a  confined  space  or  permit‐required  confined  space.    Failure  to  do  so  could 
result in injury or death. 

1. Rotate IGNITION key to the start position, and release as the engine starts. Let engine idle for
15-20 seconds.

Drilling  with  any  filter  plugged  will  cause  fluid  to  by‐pass  filters  and  allow 
contaminants to enter system components, causing premature failure. 
 
The “Return Filter Plugged” warning indicator may light up during initial engine 
start‐up.    This  is  normal  for  cold  operation  for  up  to  five  minutes,  or  until  oil 
reservoir temperature reaches 32°C, whichever occurs first. 

2. Actuate Drill Hammer Switch to the REVERSE position to allow oil to circulate and warm the
percussor and barrel to operating temperature.

3. Check hydraulic fluid temperature every ten minutes and turn hammer OFF when it reaches
43° to 49°C (110° to 120° F).

TRAMMING AND BRAKE TEST


Position the boom straight ahead and down far enough to allow maximum visibility without dragging the
hoses. Ensure that the boom and feed extension cylinders are fully retracted. The Feed may be
positioned on top of, and parallel to the boom, or rotated to the side of the boom.

Do  not  attempt  to  tram  on  a  grade  that  exceeds  the  capacity  of  the  machine.  
Machine stability is compromised if the indicator bubble touches or is in the black 
areas  of  the  indicator.    Tramming  on  a  grade  that  exceeds  the  capacity  of  the 
machine could result in serious injury or death. 
 

2−21
 
 

Do not attempt to tram with the boom extended.  Always make sure boom is fully 
retracted prior to tramming the machine.  Failure to do so could result in serious 
injury or death . 

When maneuvering around corners, keep the boom in the “SAFE” zone and swing 
the  feed  when  additional  clearance  is  required.    Jacks  must  be  down  before  the 
Boom  Swing  Indicator  is  moved  from  the  “SAFE”  zone.    Failure  to  do  so  could 
result in machine damage and injury to personnel. 
 

Always move machine with Tram Speed in the LOW position while maneuvering in 
narrow headings or down declines.

INSPECT DRILL LUBRICATION

Operators must make the proper adjustments to the drill lubrication to ensure 
proper flushing.  Failure to do so could result in injury to personnel. 
 

1. Actuate the FEED to the REVERSE position with the drill rotation and hammer OFF.

2. Check the lubricating air pressure (2.41-3.10 bar or 35-45 psi) and oil pressure (1.38-2.76
bar or 20-40 psi higher than the air pressure).

3. Check and make sure the metering valve is 6-8 turns open.

4. The air pressure regulator and metering valve are adjusted to achieve the desired
lubrication as seen in the sight glass and at the drill. Check the lubricator sight glass for
proper presence of oil (a mist to a slight puddle).

DRILLING PROCEDURES

Use  suitable  lifting  equipment  when  loading  the  drill  steel.    Failure  to  do  so 
could result in injury to personnel. 
 

Operators must use hearing protection when drilling.  Failure to do so could 
result in hearing loss. 

The machine may run above normal operating temperature range in 
poorly ventilated or closed‐in areas. 
 

Locate the Hole

1. Refer to the Tramming procedures and move the machine to make sure the boom and feed are
positioned properly with respect to the face.

Use  extreme  caution  (when  operating  the  boom  and  feed).    Ensure  that  all 
personnel  are  clear  of  all  operating  “danger  zones”.    Failure  to  do  so  could 
result in serious injury or death. 
 
When operating the boom, be careful that the boom does not come 
into contact with the front stabilizer during operation. 

2. Move the boom and feed to the desired position.

3. Sting the face by applying “FEED EXTENSION” and allow feed to remain in position
throughout the drilling cycle for that hole.

DO NOT cause the feed to move away from the face while the drill is 
engaged  in  the  rock.    This  means  that  no  minor  boom  adjustments 
should be attempted after the face is stung and drilling starts. 

2−29
Start the Drill

The oil and hammer should be at operating temperature at this time.  Starting 
the hammer requires momentary application of the feed pressure to direct all 
available  fluid  to  the  hammer,  especially  when  fluid  is  not  up  to  operating 
temperature. 

1. Ensure that the Hammer switch is in the REVERSE position.

2. Momentarily position feed control forward while switching the hammer directly from REVERSE
to FORWARD.

3. Return the feed control to the REVERSE, then NEUTRAL positions when the hammer starts.

4. Position the rotation switch to the FORWARD position.

5. Open the Air/Water valve.

Air/Water Valve
Air

Water

 
Feed  pressure  should  be  adjusted  low  enough  to  keep  the  bit/steel  from 
deflecting, but should be high enough to minimize hammer “bounce”. 
 
Collar the Hole

1. Check that the Rotation Torque Control (RTC) is “ON” and the Feed Fast Forward control is
“OFF”.

2. Place the Collaring switch to the “ON” position.

3. Place the Feed Valve to the “FORWARD” position.

4. Continue collaring for the first four to six inches of the hole, then turn the collaring valve to
“OFF”.

Drill the Hole

Never try to pull a stuck drill string out of a hole by retracting the feed extension 
cylinder or by driving the machine away from the face.  To free a stuck drill string, 
leave  rotation  controls  in  the  “FORWARD”  position  and  move  the  feed  control 
lever back and forth. 

1. Ensure that the collaring control is in the “OFF” position.

2. Check the feed thrust, monitor the bit/steel operation, and adjust only as needed to maintain
peak efficiency (62 - 103 bar or 900 - 1500 psi).

 
As  rock  conditions  change,  it  may  be  necessary  to  adjust  the  amount  of  water 
added to the flushing system.  Adjust only enough water to keep drilling dust to 
a minimum. 

3. Adjust the Air/Water Valve as needed to control dust.

4. Approximately six inches from the bottom of the hole, turn off the water and allow the air to dry
out the hole as the drill retracts.

2−31
The  drill  will  automatically  retract  out  of  the  hole  when  the  trigger  on  the 
hosewheel  base  contacts  the  retract  switch  on  the  feed,  and  the  feed  control 
lever will move to the reverse position. 

5. Allow the drill to feed to the end of its travel length where it will retract.

6. Return feed control to the neutral position when the steel is completely out of the
hole.

Clean the Hole (as needed)

1. Ensure the Air/Water Valve is in the “AIR” position.

2. Position the Fast Feed Forward control to the “ON” position.

3. Position the Feed control forward and allow the flushing air to dry out the hole.

4. Repeat the Drilling Procedures for each consecutive hole until the face is
complete.

ADD DRILL STEEL (OPTIONAL)

When drilling a hole, it may be necessary to add drill steel to reach a greater depth. With the first drill
steel in place (traveled the full length of the feed), refer to the following procedures to add drill steel.
Reverse these procedures to remove additional drill steel.

Use suitable lifting equipment when changing the drill steel.  Failure to do 
so could result in injury to personnel. 
1. With Hammer running and Drill Rotation OFF, switch the hammer to the Reverse position and
run the hammer until the drill steel “rattles” loose. This should occur within a few seconds and
will provide audible detection (rattling sound of drill steel thread vibrating against the striking bar
thread). Stop hammer operation immediately upon audible detection of drill steel rattling loose.
2. Reverse Feed until the drill is completely retracted along the feed travel.
3. Operate the boom to lower the feed assembly to a suitable height for changing the drill steel.
4. Follow all shut-down procedures in this section to completely shut down the machine, including
disconnection of mine-supplied electrical power (if using electrical-hydraulic power).
5. Lock the articulation joint and chock the wheels.
6. Using suitable lifting equipment, set the drill steel into the
mid-point centralizer.
7. Apply a liberal amount of grease to the threads and thread
into the striking bar.
8. Unlock the articulation joint and remove the wheel chocks.

2−32
9. Follow all start-up procedures, making sure the area is clear of all objects and personnel.
10. Slowly operate Feed Forward until the threads of the added steel meet the steel (in the rock).
11. Activate rotation forward while continuing to slowly feed forward to thread the joint together.
12. Once the joint is tight, start the hammer and continue drilling.

TOWING PROCEDURES

Oldenburg Group Incorporated does not recommend towing the DPIS Drill Jumbo. However, if it
becomes necessary to do so, the following procedure is offered to aid in a safe towing operation.

FAILURE  TO  FOLLOW  THESE  SAFETY  RULES  WILL  RESULT  IN 


INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONNEL.

 ALWAYS  USE  TOW  VEHICLE(S),  AND  TOW  BARS,  CHAINS  OR  CABLES,  OF 
SUFFICIENT LOAD CAPACITY TO SAFELY MOVE THE JUMBO. 
 
 IF THE CUSTOMER ELECTS TO TOW USING CHAINS OR CABLES, AS OPPOSED TO A 
RIGID  BAR,  A  SECOND  TOW  VEHICLE  IS  REQUIRED  ON  THE  OTHER  END  OF  THE 
JUMBO TO STABILIZE IT DURING MOVEMENT. 
 
 IF A RIGID TOW BAR IS USED, THE CUSTOMER MUST SECURELY INSTALL A TOWING 
LUG  OR  HITCH  TO  EITHER  THE  FRONT  OR  THE  BACK  END  OF  THE  JUMBO 
(DEPENDING  ON  THE  DESIRED  DIRECTION  OF  MOVEMENT).  THE  LUG  OR  HITCH 
SHOULD  HAVE  A  SAFETY  DEVICE  TO  SECURE  THE  TOW  BAR  TO  THE  LUG  /  HITCH 
AND  PREVENT  THE  TOW  BAR  FROM  INADVERTENTLY  BEING  DISCONNECTED 
DURING THE TOWING OPERATION. 
 
 IF  EQUIPPED,  INSTALL  THE  ARTICULATION  LOCK  BEFORE  MOVING  THE  JUMBO, 
AND LEAVE IT INSTALLED THROUGHOUT THE TOWING OPERATION. 
 
 BEFORE  ANY  PREPARATIONS  ARE  PERFORMED,  STABILIZE  THE  JUMBO  BY 
INSTALLING CHOCKS FORWARD AND AFT OF THE WHEELS. 
 

2−36
These procedures must be followed step-by-step, in sequential order, (with no step(s) omitted) to
prevent injury to personnel or damage to equipment.

Preparation
If tow chains are used - attach chains from each tow vehicle to the main frame at the front and rear
ends of the jumbo. Apply a slight tension to the chains and set the tow vehicles' parking brakes to
prevent undesired movement of the jumbo.

If a rigid tow bar is used - attach the tow bar from the tow vehicle to the jumbo, and secure the hitch /
lug to the tow bar with a safety device. Set the tow vehicle's parking brake to prevent undesired
movement of the jumbo.

1. Disconnect the forward and rear drive shafts at the axles by removing the four bolts that attach
the universal to the axle plate.
2. Raise the forward and rear drive shafts and secure them to prevent contact with the axles.
3. Ensure that the boom is positioned within the safe zone as viewed from the cab. If the jumbo's
hydraulic system is inoperative, use a portable hydraulic power supply to position the boom as
required.
4. If the jacks and /or stabilizers are extended, retract them. Use a portable hydraulic power supply
if the jumbo's hydraulic system is inoperative.
5. If the jumbo is articulated to any degree, apply hydraulic pressure from the power supply to the
steering cylinders to straighten the jumbo, and install the articulation lock (if equipped)
6. Disconnect the pressure line from the brake caliper on the front axle and cap the line.
7. Install the pressure hose from a portable hydraulic power supply to the caliper.
8. Apply hydraulic pressure from the power supply to the caliper to release the brake, and maintain
this pressure to the caliper throughout the towing operation.

Application
1. Release the tow vehicle(s) parking brake and, move the jumbo to its destination at a speed not
to exceed 3mph.
2. If using two tow vehicles, with chains or cables, the follow-up vehicle shall maintain a slight
tension on the chain to prevent the jumbo from freewheeling toward the lead tow vehicle while
towing down declines.
3. Once the jumbo is in place, set the tow vehicle(s) parking brake.
4. Remove the pressure from the jumbo's brake caliper to apply its parking brake.
5. Extend the Jack cylinders as needed to stabilize the jumbo. If the jumbo's hydraulic system is
inoperative, use a portable hydraulic power supply.

6. Disconnect the tow chains or tow bar (as applicable) from the jumbo.

fluid. 
 
ALWAYS wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear when pressure washing the 
machine. 

DE-ICING AND ICE REMOVAL


 
Use a propylene glycol type de-icing fluid (SAE AMS 1428 and AMS 1424) to remove any ice
accumulation or build-up. If not already diluted, dilute with water using a 70% deicing fluid and 30%
water mixture. If using a Type I or Type III fluid, spray on hot (54° - 82° C or 130° - 180° F) at high
pressure to remove ice or frost.

PRESSURE WASHING THE MACHINE

In order to use a pressure washer effectively it is important to choose the right attachments for each
type of job. Most pressure washers will come with a series of interchangeable nozzles and tips, each
one designed for a specific application. These interchangeable tips serve a dual purpose. On the one
hand they help to lower the pressure in the washer and draw the detergents and cleaners through the
system. On the other hand the interchangeable nozzles help to provide a high pressure rinse at various
angles. Be sure to locate the pressure washer instruction manual and read it thoroughly before use.

Before actually pressure washing the machine, test the pressure washer first. Even if you have used a
pressure washer before, each device will have its own unique characteristics. You may not be used to
the power of a large pressure washer, and as a result the washer could get out of control if you are not
ready. Start by making a few test sprays in the general direction of the items you want to clean, while
not actually touching those items. Experiment with the nozzles until you have the spray you want. Only
after you have completed this test should you actually begin pressure washing the machine.

During the testing phase it is important to get a feel for the trigger on the pressure washer. While some
pressure washers are more sensitive than others, holding the trigger down on a pressure washer
generally takes more strength than pulling the trigger on a hose nozzle.

4. Refer to the following for inspection of the feed cables:

The wearing of the cables, in relation to their function, produces a lowering of the coefficient of work
with respect to safety. It is necessary to periodically inspect the cables with the aim of avoiding
breakages. This inspection allows us to get to know the factors that have most influence on its
wearing and thus correct and lower the probability of failure.

As much as possible, all visible parts of any cable should be observed each working day (each
shift) with the object of detecting general deterioration and deformation.

Special examination shall be performed in all cases when:


 An incident has occurred which may have caused damage to the cable and/or its termination.
 A cable has been brought back into operation after a disassembly.
 A cable has been out of operation for three months or more.

When the cable is examined throughout its length, particular care shall be taken at the following
positions:

 Termination points at the end of cables.

 The part of the cable that wraps around a sheave.

 Any part of the cable that is subject to abrasion.

 Any part of the cable exposed to heat.

The safe use of cable is qualified by the following criteria:


Feed 
 The nature and number of broken wires. Cable 

 Broken wires at the termination.

 The localized grouping of wire breaks.

 The rate of increase of wire breaks.

 The fracture of strands.

 Reduction of cable diameter.

 Decreased elasticity.

 External and internal corrosion.

 Deformation.

 Damage due to heat or electric arcing.

 Rate of increase of permanent elongation.

3−19
In the case of 6 and 8 strand cables, broken wires occur principally on the external surface. This
does not apply to cables having a number of layers of stands, where the majority of breaks occur
internally and are therefore “non-visible” fractures.

When establishing rejection criteria for cables, consideration shall be given to the rope construction,
length of service and the way in which the cable is being used. Guidance to the number of visible
broken wires which shall give rise to rejection is given in the following tables.

Broken wires at, or adjacent to, the termination point are indicative of high stresses at this position
and may be caused by incorrect fitting of the termination.

 Misaligned drill steel.

REQUIREMENTS

Complete this procedure if repeated drill steel breakage is experienced.

INSPECTION / CORRECTIVE ACTION

Complete the following checks and adjustments in the order listed.

1. Check P1 and P2 pressures.

2. Check feed relief pressure.

3. Check Drill Steel Alignment. Misaligned drill steel will cause excessive heat to be
generated at the shank. This problem often causes drill steel and shanks to break in
the rock drill. Complete Feed Assembly Alignment Inspection.

4. Check Feed Thrust Pressure. Feed thrust pressure should to be set to maintain tight
drill string during drilling operations. Loose drill string will cause excessive heat to be
generated at the shank coupling joint.

5. Check Feed Flow Rate. Low feed flow rate will cause the hydraulic feed to not keep
up with drill penetration rate.

6. Complete Hydraulic Cylinder Leak Test.

7. Inspect Drill hammer. Defective or worn o-rings on the feed flow shift valve can allow
hydraulic pressure to bypass back to the tank.

HYDRAULIC DRILL CONTROLS (HDC) ADJUSTMENTS

DESCRIPTION OF HDC

The “brains” of the hydraulic control system are the Oldenburg Group Incorporated Integrated Circuit
(I.C.) blocks. These aluminum blocks have tapped holes for cartridges which regulate the oil flow to
power the boom, hammer, feed and rotation functions. The oil is drawn from a tank by either an electric
motor for diesel engine driven reliable 3-section gear pump and directed to the hammer and rotation
blocks from where the oil flows to the hammer, rotation, feed and boom controls. If the system is a
dual-power system (capable of running from either an electric motor or a diesel engine), there is a
single section gear pump driven by each power unit. Only one power source is operated at a time and
the oil from the single section pump drives a three (3) section gear-type rotary flow divider. The three
section flow divider distributes the flow the same way as the three section gear pump in a single power
source circuit. The three section flow divider can be driven by any hydraulic source with sufficient flow
and pressure.

All cartridges (valves) in the I.C. blocks regulate pressure, direction and volume of oil flows when the
rotation, boom, hammer and feed control levers are in the neutral, forward, or reverse operation modes.
Subject cartridges are easily accessible for service, factory pre-set per manufacturer specifications and
usually don’t need any adjustments. The information to regulate pressures, divert and regulate volume
of oil flows is supplied by pilot control lines, which are connected to the feed valve and send pressure
signals to the cartridges in the I.C. blocks.

Hydraulic drilling systems can work without the main pilot control line. However, it is the interaction
between the pilot lines and cartridges in the I.C. blocks that permit complete control of the hydraulic
drilling system. Key to this system are the hammer feed flow shift, rotation shift and hammer regulator
cartridges in the I.C. blocks which continuously monitor the feed pilot pressure. When the hammer and
rotation are on and the drill is fed into the rock, the cartridges sense an increase in feed pressure and
will supply more oil to the hammer in two steps. The hammer shifts from idle to collar and then to full
power. The drill will be in the high power mode when the feed lever is all the way forward and the feed
pilot pressure exceeds 55.171 bar (800 psi). All drill jumbos include a thermostatic valve and an oil
cooler to maintain the hydraulic oil temperature at 51.667°C (125°F). The oil is maintained at 51.667°C
(125°F) for proper operation of the drill and long life of the hydraulic components.

The hydraulic system controls explained above usually don’t need to be adjusted in the field. The only
hydraulic system controls that usually are adjusted in the field to optimize the drilling operation are the
collaring pressure, feed thrust pressure, hammer collaring power and rotation speed regulators. These
adjustments can be made by simply turning the control knobs for that function out or in. Such action
allows more or less oil to go to the feed thrust, rotation or hammer, and either increases or decreases
feed thrust, hammer collar or rotation. The described control circuit results in a drilling system with the
below outlined operation features:

-Positive “one hand” control for all modes of drill operation after hammer and rotation start-up.
Operating the feed and collaring control valve gives full control of collaring and drilling.

3−75
-Automatic drill retract. At the end of its permissible travel, the drill will actuate a retract switch. The
switch will redirect the oil flow. This reverses the spool in the feed valve causing the drill to retract
automatically. Since the hammer is not drilling, more oil can be supplied to the feed retract circuit
which results in a high speed retract. The hammer and the rotation shift to the idle mode which results
in a high speed retract and reduced horsepower demand.

-Outstanding hole collaring ability because the hammer collaring impact (blow) energy and the feed
thrust for collaring are both adjustable and can be matched to the rock and the bit.

-Drill percussion is always automatically in the low power mode when the feed valve is in neutral or
when the drill is retracting. This substantially reduces energy consumption and further decreases the
already low noise levels of the CH series drills when repositioning the boom.

-Foolproof hammer protection because the drill cannot operate at full power unless the striking bar is
thrust into the striking position by feeding the bit against the rock. If there is no feed pressure, there will
not be signal to the cartridges and no command for maximum oil flow to the hammer. As a result,
damaging full power cushion shots are not possible.

-Superior anti-steel sticking drifter retract – RTC (rotation torque control) device. When rotation
pressure increases above 103.45 bar (1500 psi) as a result of a bit/steel binding condition, the drifter
will automatically retract out of the hole and re-collar the hole until the bit/steel binding condition ceases
to exist.

-Use of the same power source for operating not only the hydraulic drill, but also the hydraulic feed and
boom.

-Quick boom repositioning is possible because when the drill is idling, more oil is available for boom
movements.

-A drill control circuit that utilizes a reliable, inexpensive, fixed displacement hydraulic gear pump
operating at optimum efficiency.

-Adjustable feed thrust and rotation RPM to optimize penetration rate and accessory life.

Valves are the controls of the HDC-3 hydraulic system. They regulate the pressure, direction and
volume of oil flow in the hydraulic drilling circuit. The HDC-3 circuit uses three types of valves:

 Pressure control valves

 Volume control valves

 Directional control valves

3−76
PRESSURE CONTROL VALVES limit or reduce system pressure or set the pressure at which oil
enters a circuit. The pressure control valves used in the HDC-3 circuit are relief valves and pressure
reducing valves.

VOLUME CONTROL VALVES regulate the volume of oil flow, usually by throttling or diverting it. The
volume control valves used in the HDC-3 circuit are flow regulators and fixed and variable orifices.

DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVES control the direction of oil flow within the Oldenburg Cannon
hydraulic drilling system. The directional control valves in the HDC-3 circuit are check valves, two
position 3-way directional control valves, two position 4-way directional control valves, three position 4-
way directional control valves, and sequence valves.

All above mentioned types of valves are part of the HDC-3 system. They are located in the hammer,
rotation and feed I.C. blocks. These components all appear on the piping diagrams which should be
used when studying how all components interface.

When reviewing the functions of the valves shown on the attached descriptions - REMEMBER:

 The HDC-3 system includes the following components: a reservoir (tank) to store the oil; a pump to
push the oil through the system; valves to control pressure, direction, and volume of oil flow; motors
and cylinders to convert the fluid movement into work.

 Pressure is a result of resistance to flow.

 Pressure is force for work.

 All energy put into a hydraulic drilling system must come out either as work or as heat.

 When oil flow is restricted, heat is created and there is a loss of potential energy (pressure) for
doing work (i.e., a hose that is too small or restricted). On the other hand, some restrictions like
orifices are purposely built into the hydraulic drilling system.

 Flow through an orifice or restriction causes a pressure drop.

 Flow controls speed.

 Oil must be confined to create pressure for work. A tightly sealed hydraulic drilling system is a
must.

 Oil takes the course of least resistance.

 Oil is pushed into a pump, not drawn into it (atmospheric pressure supplies this pressure).

 A pump does not create pressure; it creates flow. Pressure is caused by resistance to flow.

ADJUSTMENT REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES

Make sure the machine is shut down, all mine‐supplied electrical power has been 
removed, and hydraulic and air systems have been relieved of pressure.  Failure 
to do so could result in injury to personnel. 

To give the operator the required control over a hydraulic drilling system, many different types
of volume, pressure and directional control valves have become part of the HDC-3 system.
Some of these control valves are adjustable while some other valves are non-adjustable, but
could possibly malfunction as a result of contaminants in the hydraulic fluid or other causes.
Therefore, it is important that all troubleshooters of Oldenburg Cannon hydraulic drilling
systems are thoroughly familiar with not only how the HDC-3 system works, but also with
component adjustments and flow test procedures.

When taking hydraulic drill control system flow tests and making component adjustments, it is
pertinent to conduct these tests and adjustments under normal operating conditions. Following
the below listed pre-test requirements will insure that the test readings were made under the
proper conditions and usable for air comparison with the desired system flows and pressure
settings published in this booklet.

PRE-TEST REQUIREMENTS

1. Oil temperatures should be 51.667°C (125°F).

2. Filters should be clean.

3. Pumps, if diesel powered, should be operating at the normal rated RPM for the machine
when under load. All electric motors should be operating at rated voltage and frequency
when under load.

4. Oil level should be between minimum and maximum limits.

5. Specified oil per Oldenburg Cannon specifications.

6. All hoses and components connected per the applicable hydraulic schematic.

Pressure gauges have a limited life and will eventually exceed the original
accuracy allowance. Gauges of known accuracy should be used when making
any critical pressure checks or adjustments (such as the main reliefs).

3−89
The hydraulic system must always be shut down before removing any valves, 
hoses or other hydraulic components.  Failure to do so could result in injury to 
personnel. 
 

PRE-ADJUSTMENT SETTINGS

The following settings are initial settings only and should in no case be used as the final
setting. Doing so may cause component failure, particularly if the main reliefs are not set
accurately.

HAMMER I.C. BLOCK ADJUSTMENT

MAIN RELIEF (P1 & P2, 1A, 1B)

1. Turn main relief out (CCW) 3 to 4 turns from the initial setting.

2. Install gauges on the P1G and the P2G test ports.

3. Hammer control in the “REV” position.

4. Feed control in the forward position with the drill fed against the face or some other object in
order to stop forward drill movement on feed. Collaring must be off.

5. Adjust both relief valves to read 220 Bar (3200 psi) on their respective gauges.

6. Return Feed and Hammer control to the “OFF” position.

ALTERNATE MAIN RELIEF METHOD

1. Retract rear jack

2. Set P2.

3. Exchange P2 relief cartridge with P1 relief cartridge

4. Follow same process as above.

FEED SPEED

1. Start hammer and let idle.

2. Fast forward valve in “OFF” position.

3. Time drill from rear stop to front stop. Time of travel should be approximately 10 to 20 seconds
less than the actual drilling time. The “feed flow adjust cartridge” regulates the feed speed.
Turn counter-clockwise (out) to decrease time; clockwise (in) to increase time.

3−91
HAMMER COLLAR ADJUST

The Hammer Collar Adjust is adjusted to achieve the desired impact power level for collaring the hole.

1. Set-up for a new hole.

2. Hammer and Rotation on (FWD).

3. Collaring valve “ON.”

4. Feed valve on “FWD.”

5. Collaring feed pressure adjusted to desired setting. This pressure is normally 27 - 42 Bar (400-
600 psi).

6. Adjust the Hammer Collar Adjust to achieve the desired impact power level. Turning clockwise
(CW) increases the impact power.
 
 
HAMMER SHIFT ADJUST

This adjustment is easiest to do while drilling.

1. Set up machine for a hole.

2. Turn the Feed Thrust Regulator full out (CCW).

3. Start the rotation and hammer, with collaring off move the feed to the “FWD” position.

4. Slowly turn the Feed Thrust Regulator in (CW) while observing the feed pressure gauge. The
feed pressure at which the hammer goes to full power is the setting of the Hammer Shift Adjust.

5. Adjust the Hammer Shift Adjust to shift at 55 Bar (800 psi). Turn in (CW) to increase the shift
pressure.

6. Turn the Hammer and Rotation off.

7. Adjust the Feed Thrust to the pressure required for drilling.

3−92
 
 
FEED I.C. BLOCK ADJUSTMENT
 
FEED RELIEF PRESSURE

1. Feed valve in full forward position (rotation and hammer off) with drill feed against the face or
some other object in order to stop drill movement.
2. Turn the feed thrust regulator full in (clockwise).
3. Adjust the feed relief to 172 Bar (2500 psi).
4. Adjust the feed thrust regulator to the feed pressure for drilling.

The feed pressure should not fluctuate more than +/‐ 100 PSI when drilling.  If this 
pressure fluctuation is exceeded, first set the feed speed as in the “Feed Speed” 
section.    Then  if  still  necessary,  turn  the  “feed  flow  adjust”  counter‐clockwise 
(out) up to ½ turn until fluctuation stops.  If fluctuation continues, proceed to the 
troubleshooting section for corrective action. 

FEED THRUST

1. Feed valve in the full forward position with the drill feed against the face or some other object in
order to stop forward drill movement on the feed.
2. Adjust the feed thrust regulator to read 76 - 103 Bar (1100-1500 psi) on the feed thrust gauge
for the CH38, 48 - 76 Bar (700-1100 psi) for the CH32. More pressure will be necessary if
drilling up holes.

RTC SEQUENCE

1. Remove the hydraulic lines from the drill rotation and connect to a flow meter.
2. Turn in (CW) the RTC Sequence adjust 2-3 turns from the initial setting.
3. RTC On-OFF in “ON” position.
4. Start the hydraulic system.
5. Actuate the rotation to “FWD.”

COMPONENT DEFINITIONS

Hydraulic Pump: 4 Section, Fixed Displacement Gear pump that provides oil flow to the Hydraulic Drill
Control circuit.

Integrated Circuit (I.C.) blocks: Aluminum Blocks that contain internal porting and cartridge-type control
valves that regulate pressure, flow, and direction of oil from the pumps to the individual functions.

Pressure Filter: Steel Housing that contains a replaceable filter element that filters High Pressure oil
supplied by the Hydraulic pump. This ensures the oil is clean prior to it’s introduction to any of the
system controls and functions, especially the Drill.

Hydraulic Tank: Vessel that holds the hydraulic oil in reserve, to be used in the process of performing
work with the machine.

Return Filter: Steel and Aluminum housing bolted into the top of the hydraulic tank that contains a
replaceable filter element which filters all low pressure oil that is returned through the Return Manifold
from all operating functions.

Return Manifold: Aluminum Block with multiple ports that collects returning oil from functions and
directs it back to tank, directing the oil through the return filter.

Thermal Valve: A temperature controlled valve that allows oil directly back to tank or diverts the oil
through the oil cooler as required, to maintain operating temperature of the oil. The thermal valve is
similar in function to a thermostat in an automobile engine’s coolant circuit.

Air to Oil Cooler: An aluminum cooler designed to pass oil through the core, while a fan forces air over
the fins of the cooler to transfer heat from the oil to the outside air, in an effort to reduce the
temperature of the oil. The cooler functions like an automobile’s radiator.

Water to Oil Cooler: A cooler that is comprised of many small, sealed tubes connected at each end to a
common cavity and encased by a larger casing, where the hydraulic oil is forced through the small
tubes, and water is forced into the casing, to transfer heat from the oil to the water in an effort to cool
the temperature of the oil. It functions similar to an Air to Oil Cooler.

Hydraulic Motor: A device that transfers hydraulic pressure and flow (power) into rotational movement.
Hydraulic motors are used to power the cooling fan, optional air conditioning pumps, optional water
pumps, and most importantly, the drill’s rotation function.

Relief Valve: A device that controls pressure in a hydraulic system by monitoring the upstream pressure
and allowing excess pressure to be returned to tank.
Pressure Reducing Valve: A device that controls pressure in a hydraulic system by monitoring the
downstream pressure, regulating it and maintaining the desired pressure.

4−2
Solenoid valve: A device that controls direction of oil flow by means of electric control.
Solenoid Controlled Relief Valve: an Integrated circuit block that contains a relief valve and solenoid
actuated directional valve whereas when an electrical input is applied to the solenoid, the cartridge
shifts allowing pilot oil to act on the relief cartridge.

Flow Control: A device that meters the volume of oil in a hydraulic circuit.

Orifice: A flow control that is non adjustable

Needle valve: An adjustable flow control.

Check Valve: A device that allows oil to flow freely in one direction but prevents flow through it in the
opposite direction.

Double Pilot Check valve: An IC block that contains two check valve cartridges that open via pilot
signal, used to hold a function in place. The two lines to a function are hosed in parallel, through the IC
Block, the block is ported so that pilot pressure from one side acts on the check valve of the other side,
opening the valve, and vice versa.

Dual Over-center Valve: An IC block that is similar in function to the Double Pilot Check, but adds a
relief to the pilot circuit for better positive control of the speed of the function. This provides more finite
control feel for the operator and added protection against inadvertent movement of the function if a
hose was to fail. Also known as a Dual Counterbalance Valve.

FUNCTION OF EACH COMPONENT

These descriptions include generic references, please refer to the correct Drill Circuit Schematic for
your particular machine.

Pump Circuit

Hydraulic oil from the hydraulic tank is passed to the pump via three suction lines. The hydraulic tank
contains magnetic suction strainers to prevent metal debris from being ingested by the pump. The
pump is powered mechanically either by a diesel engine or electric motor, both of which turn the pump
at approximately 1800 RPMs. The hydraulic pump then splits the flow of oil from both suction ports
internally into 4 separate pressure sections. Each section is a gear type pump independent of the
others, and connected together via drive shafts. Each section is dedicated to providing oil to a different
function of the overall circuit, and generally is called by the name of the sub circuit it provides oil to; P1,
P2, P3, or Air Compressor (AP). The P1 Section supplies oil to the Drill Rotation Circuit and is only
used while drilling, in High or Full Drill.

The P2 Section is the workhorse of the system, and provides flow to the Drill and Feed Circuits while
drilling, and provides flow to the Boom and Jack and optional Steel Handling circuits while positioning
the machine in preparation to drill.

4−3
The P3 Section supplies extra volume to the Drill Rotation circuit and supplies the optional hydraulic
driven components, like the Cooler Fan and Air Conditioning sub circuits, which are plumbed in series
to the Rotary IC Block (#10). Once the pump increases the volume of oil, oil is sent out to the individual
sub circuits.

P1 Circuit

Once the P1 oil leaves the hydraulic pump, it is sent to the Rotary IC Block and enters at the port
marked P1. The Rotary IC block is ported internally to provide paths for the oil to travel and be acted
upon by the various cartridges as required. Each external port on the Block is stamped with letters that
correspond with port labels on the schematic.

Once inside the IC block the path of oil reaches the P1 “Main Relief” cartridge (#1A) after passing
through a “Check” valve (#5). There is also a second check valve that prevents the flow of P1 oil back
into the P3 section. The P1 Relief cartridge protects the P1 section from over pressurization and is set
between 3200 and 3500 psi, depending on the application. Upon reaching the set pressure, excess oil
is passed through the relief cartridge back to tank.

There is also the P1 gauge port (P1G) that is teed into the main line and is provided for the purpose of
observing the operating pressure of that section. Downstream of the P1 Relief, oil is split into two paths:
the first path travels through a Flow Control valve (#4) to the “Drill valve”(#6); the second path travels
then splits between the “Drill Shift” cartridge (#3), then to tank, depending on what state the cartridge is
in or travels through the orifice (#13) to supply a pilot to act on the Drill Full Power cartridge (#15); We
will now discuss the sub circuits as listed above.

The Check cartridge (#5) is installed in the P1 circuit to prevent high pressure P2 oil from traveling back
to tank through the P1 circuit while not drilling, as the two circuits are teed together prior to the “Drill”
valve (#6). The flow control (#4) is used to regulate Rotation Speed of the drill by creating a pressure
drop across itself which is monitored to the pressure reducing valve (#3), which dumps excess P1, P2,
and P3 oil to regulate the Rotary Drill’s operating flow. In effect, the two work in tandem, as a pressure
compensated flow control.

P2 Circuit

The P2 Circuit is slightly more complicated than the P1 circuit, as it is serving multiple purposes.
Once the P2 Oil leaves the pump, it enters the P2 Port of the Rotary IC Block (#10). As with P1, the first
component the oil meets is the P2 “Main Relief” cartridge (#1). The P2 Main Relief cartridge (#1B)
protects the P2 Section from over pressurization and is set between 3200 and 3500 psi depending on
the application. Upon reaching the set pressure, excess oil is passed through the relief cartridge back
to tank. ALWAYS REFER TO THE HYDRAULIC SCHEMATIC FOR THE PARTICULAR MACHINE
FOR SETTING VALUES! The P2 Port is tapped into to supply Pilot oil for the Feed Circuit through the
pilot pressure port (PP) and is also tapped to supply the P2 Gauge port (P2G). Downstream of the main
relief, the path of oil gets divided into 4 different directions. The first path draws from P2 oil to supply
the oil to port 1 of the “Feed Flow Regulator” cartridge (#10).

4−4
The second path forces oil across both the “Feed Flow Adjust” cartridge (#7) then on through Port 4 of
the “Feed Flow Regulator” Cartridge (#10) out port 3, then on to the “Feed” port of the Drill IC Block to
provide oil supply to the Feed Circuit (to be discussed in more detail in the future). The Third and
Fourth paths originate from the P2 supply and split the oil further to supply extra flow to the Feed circuit
across the “Feed Retract Orifice” when the “Drill-Feed Flow Shift” cartridge (#9) is in it’s neutral state (In
Feed Retract mode- with no pilot pressure on port “PF”), AND supplies the pilot portion of the “Feed
Flow Regulator” cartridge (#10). We will discuss this in more detail, starting with the action of the Feed
Flow Regulator.

The Feed Flow Regulator (#10) is a priority type, pressure compensated flow control that maintains a
priority flow of oil to the Feed circuit regardless of the operating pressure of the Feed system. This
cartridge constantly modulates the spool between its paths to maintain a fixed volume of oil from port 4
of the cartridge to port 3, as determined by the “Feed Flow Adjust” cartridge (#7), which is usually 0-5
GPM’s while drilling. The regulator accomplishes this by monitoring the differential pressure of the P2
source oil to act on one side of the cartridge (shown at the bottom of the cartridge on the schematic)
and the pressure downstream of the “Feed Flow Orifice” (#7) in combination with a spring at a fixed
tension value (shown on the top side of the cartridge in the schematic), and shifting the cartridge
accordingly. All oil not used to maintain the Feed circuit’s supply is then passed through Port 1 of the
Regulator through Port 2 then on to the “Drill Valve” (#6).

The “Feed Flow Adjust” cartridge (#7) is a variable orifice that gives us the ability to adjust the amount
of flow out to the Feed circuit and further restricts the Feed Flow, as required, and interacts the with the
“Feed Orifice” (#12) to ensure we get the proper pressure drop for the function of the “Feed Flow
Regulator” (#10). It also meters the amount of flow allowed to the Feed circuit while drilling.

The “Feed Retract Orifice” (#8) is a fixed orifice that allows an extra amount of flow to the feed circuit
when the Feed is operating in “Reverse” or “Fast Feed Forward”.
The “Drill-Feed Flow Shift” cartridge (#9) is a sequence type directional control cartridge that is a Pilot
operated, 2 way, 2 position cartridge that shifts upon pilot pressure application to overcome the preset
spring pressure of the cartridge, thus blocking the flow through the cartridge. The normal position of this
cartridge while drilling is closed, opposite from the way it is drawn on the schematic.

When the machine is being trammed, or the Drill and Feed are not operating, P2 oil is on reserve to
provide oil supply to the Jack Valve, Boom valve and optional Steel Handling valves on Bench Drill
machines. P2 oil still takes the same path through the Drill IC block as it would for the Feed and Drill
functions, but the “Feed Flow Regulator” cartridges and also adds the oil from the “Feed Retract Orifice”
(#8) for a combined flow of up to 11 GPM’s. There is no pilot signal from the Feed circuit to shift the
“Drill-Feed Flow Shift Adjust” cartridge (#9) closed when operating the Jack or Boom valve.

All returning oil from the Drill returns through the “Drill Valve” (#6) and collects all the other tanking oil
from the cartridges in the Drill IC Block, as well as the tank oil returning from the Feed IC Block and
combines to a single Tank port that goes to the Thermal Valve Assembly (#15) for distribution ether to
the Hydraulic Oil Cooler (#16) or on to the Return Manifold (#14) where all Tank oil is collected before
returning into the Hydraulic Tank (#1).

4−5
The “Drill” valve (#6) is a Open Center, Pilot Operated, Manual (remote) Actuated, 3 position, 4 way,
directional control valve that controls oil flow to the drill. It is controlled by a switch in the cab. In
“Neutral” or “Off”, oil from P1, P2 and P3 sections pass through the valve back to tank. If the “Drill
Forward” switch is powered, the valve shifts so oil flows from P to A, sending oil to the drill pressure
lines allowing the drill to rotate. If the “Drill Reverse” switch is energized, oil flows from P to B,
pressurizing the return line of the drill, which we use to uncouple the drill steel from the Rotary Drill.
There are two separate sections of the Drill valve assembly, the Main spool section and the Pilot spool
section. The Pilot section receives pilot oil through the “X” port of the Main spool section of the valve
which is drawn off the P2 Portion of the Drill IC block. The “X” port in the Pilot section becomes the
Pressure supply “P” of the pilot section. When the joystick valve (#12) is applied in the Forward or
Reverse direction, the Pilot spool shifts, to allow “X” port pressure to pass to either the “A” or “B” ports
of the Pilot section. The oil is then used to shift the Main spool in the appropriate direction.

Feed IC Block

The Feed IC Block (#7) is a sub circuit of the P2 Circuit and warrants its own discussion as it provides
the means to operate the logic of the other circuits; P1, P2, and P3 via Pilot lines which monitor the
feed and transmit signals accordingly to the Drill and Rotation IC blocks to act on functions based on
what the Feed is doing.

Once P2 oil comes from the Drill IC Block “Feed” port, through the Jack and Boom Valves (and any
other optional valves), P2 oil enters the Feed IC block at the “Feed” port and runs into the “Feed Main
Relief” cartridge (#1), which is set at 2200psi for most applications. Pressure in excess of 2200 psi is
passed over the relief back to tank. The path of oil then continues on to the “Feed Valve” (#2) and is
tapped off to provide a Pilot source to the rotation block via the “FP” port (purpose to be described
later). The Feed Valve” (#2) controls the direction of travel of the drill down the feed. It is an Open
Center, Lever-operated, 3 position, 4 way valve with pilot override for the Reverse position. The “Feed
Valve” (#2) allows oil to flow from “P” to “A” or “B” out to the Feed Cylinder depending on which
direction the lever is actuated. If a Pilot Signal is introduced to Port “X” by means of the “Automatic
Retract” or “Feed Enable” functions, the pilot signal shift the valve spool to allow oil to flow from “P” to
“B”, causing the Feed Cylinder to reverse and bring the Drill out of the hole.

Traveling out of the “A” port of the “Feed Valve” (#2), the oil makes it’s way to the “RTC Valve” (#3).
The “RTC Valve” (#3) is a Pilot operated, 2 position, 4 way valve, that changes the direction of travel for
the drill down the Feed when Pilot pressure is applied at Port “X”. In its normal state, the “RTC Valve”
allows flow from “P” to “A”; when Pilot pressure is applied, the valve changes state and oil flows from
“P” to “B”.

Leaving the “A” port of the “RTC Valve”, the oil makes its way to the “Feed Thrust Regulator” cartridge
(#6), which controls the operating pressure of the Feed cylinder and is set to achieve desired forward
travel of the Drill down the Feed while drilling. The Feed Pressure Gauge “FGA” is tapped off the “A”
line from the “RTC Valve” and measures the operating pressure of the Forward Feed function, and is
also teed into the “Collaring” circuit to display the Feed Forward operating pressure while in Collaring
mode. Collaring is designed to reduce the Drill Impact energy and Forward Feed Force in an effort to
start the drilled hole straight and true. Collaring is most easily related to a person drilling a hole with an
electric drill, whereas the person starts the hole with a slow speed and does not bear down that hard on
the drill, in an effort to keep the drill bit from “walking” or “slipping”. With the HDC-3 circuit, this is
accomplished by the use of the Collaring circuit.

4−6
Collaring circuit

The Collaring circuit is comprised of two components in the Feed IC block; the “Collaring On/Off” valve
(#4B) and the “Collaring Adjust” cartridge (#10), and a pilot signal to the Drill IC block through the “PH”
port, which acts on the shift adjust and shift cartridges as described earlier. As for the components in
the Feed IC Block, the “Collaring On/Off” valve (#4B) is a Lever Operated, 2 position, 3 way valve that
controls the flow of oil to either reduce the amount of Feed Thrust pressure to the level of Collaring, or
to block the flow of oil to tank. In it’s normal state (“Collaring Off”) the valve is closed and oil from the
Feed Thrust is blocked at Port 3 of the valve. Port 1 of the valve passes oil to the “Collaring Adjust”
cartridge (#10).

When the operator selects “Collaring On”, the lever is moved 90 degrees in a Counter Clockwise
direction, which connects port 3 to port 1. Port 2 is not used and is dead-headed in the valve. With
Collaring on, and oil flowing from port 3 to port 1 of the “Collaring On/Off” valve (#4B), oil travels to the
“Collaring Adjust” cartridge, which is a Relief valve. Once the desired pressure is reached, generally set
at 400-600 psi, the relief lifts and passes excess pressure to tank, which translates to reduced force at
the feed cylinder, thus slowing the advance of the drill.

The “PH” port is tied in downstream of the “Feed Thrust Regulator” cartridge (#6) and in parallel to the
collaring circuit so that the “PH” line sends the pressure signal from the Feed system to the Drill IC
Block to reduce Drill Impact pressure as required.

The “Feed Check” valve (#5) blocks flow from the upstream side of the “Feed Thrust Regulator”
cartridges (#6) to ensure an accurate gauge reading at the “Feed gauge” (FGA) regardless of what
forward mode of operation the operator is in; be it Collaring or Full Drill. It is necessary to relieve any
held pressure in the pilot gallery and allows the gauge to return to 0 psi when the feed is operated in
reverse. All returning oil from the Feed cylinder returns to the Feed IC block, combines with any tanking
oil from the various cartridges in the block and exit the Feed IC Block through one common tank port
heading for the Drill IC block.

RTC circuit

RTC stands for Rotation Torque Control and is a means to monitor the force of the drill steel’s rotational
resistance in and against the rock and provide an automated means to alert the operator that the steel
is about to get stuck in the rock as well as prevent the steel from getting stuck if properly adjusted. As
the name implies, the circuit functions by monitoring the operating pressure of the Rotation circuit of the
Drill and tripping the Drill out of the hole by reversing the direction of the feed if that sensed pressure
becomes higher than the preset value. There are 3 physical components in the Feed IC block and a
pilot signal that is sent from the Rotation IC Block that makes up the RTC sub circuit; The “RTC Valve”
(#3), the “RTC On/Off” cartridge (#4C), and the “RTC Sequence” cartridge (#8), which will be discussed
now.

The “RTC On/Off” cartridge (#4C) is a Lever operated, 2 position, 3 way valve that is the same as the
“Collaring On/Off” cartridge (#4B) and the “Feed Fast Forward” cartridge (#4A). All three of these valves
can be interchanged. In its normal state, set for drilling, the “RTC On/Off” valve (#4C) is turned to its
Clockwise position, which allows pilot oil from the “RP” port of the feed block, at port 2 of the cartridge
to flow through to port 1, which sends the signal to the “RTC Sequence” cartridge (#8). When the valve

4−7
is shifted to its Counter Clockwise position, the path from port 2 to port 1 becomes blocked and the
function is considered “Off”. The “RP” port of the Feed Block receives its oil directly from the Rotation
IC block, tapped off the P3 pressure gallery and senses the operating pressure of the drill rotation, as
the drill is operating.

The “RTC Sequence” cartridge (#8) is a Sequence type valve that senses pilot pressure from the “RP”
port of the Feed Block and shifts at a predetermined value which is set according to the conditions of
the rock that is being drilled. Once the cartridge shifts, oil passes from port 1 to port 2 to signal the
“RTC valve” (#3) to shift, reversing the direction of the feed.

Fast Feed Forward circuit

The Fast Feed circuit allows the operator to increase feed flow temporarily in an effort to reduce the
amount of time it takes to dry or re-flush the drilled hole. It is not designed to be used while drilling as
the drill actually would loose power with the fast feed on, as P2 flow is robbed from the drill (aprox. 6
GPMs) to supply the extra oil to the Feed.

The Fast Feed circuit draws oil pressure from the “A” side of the “Feed Valve” (#2) and sends the oil to
the “Fast Feed” cartridge (#4A), which is a Lever operated, 2 position, 3 way valve, the same as items
4B and 4C. in its normal state while drilling, Fast Feed is considered “Off” and oil is allowed to pass
from port 1 to port 2 through the cartridge which is in its Clockwise position, thus sending a pilot signal
out to port “PF” of the Feed IC Block, out to the “PF” port of the Rotary IC Block to act on the “Drill/
Feed Flow Shift Adjust” cartridge as previously discussed. When the operator actuates the lever to the
“On” position (Counter-Clockwise), the valve shifts and the oil drains from the pilot “PF” to tank; from
port 1 to port 3 through the cartridge. Port 3 is connected internally to the tank porting in the Feed IC
block.

Automatic Retract circuit

The Automatic Retract circuit is also referred to as automatic kick out and provides a means to
automatically reverse the direction of the feed once the hole is drilled complete. The circuit acts by
sending a pilot signal out to a valve on the side of the feed that the drill trips when the hole is fully
drilled. There are two components that are involved in the operation of this circuit, the “Retract Pressure
Regulator” cartridge (#12) and the Feed Retract valve that serves as the switch, which is mounted on
the side of the feed assembly. The circuit is supplied by the “PP” port of the Feed block which sends P2
pilot pressure into the Feed IC Block. Oil from the “PP” port supplies the “Retract Pressure Regulator”
cartridge (#12) with system pressure and the regulator reduces and maintains a desired pressure
(usually 500 -700 psi) which is the pressure required to trip the “Feed Valve” handle back once the
circuit is made. The “Retract Pressure Regulator” cartridge is a pressure reducing/ relieving valve. The
outlet of the valve supplies the “R” port of the Feed IC Block with regulated pilot pressure, which is sent
out to the Retract valve on the side of the Feed. The Retract Valve is a manually actuated, 2 position, 2
way valve, which is normally closed, blocking the flow of oil through it.

Once the drill travels down the length of the feed and the hole is drilled complete, a lever mounted to
the drill’s cradle makes contact with the button on the Retract Valve, causing the valve to change
states. Once the valve changes states, it allows the regulated pilot oil through itself and back to the
Feed IC Block. The Oil enters the Feed IC Block at port “X” and acts on the pilot side of the “Feed
Valve” (#2) to shift that valve in reverse. Once the drill starts reversing up the feed, the button is forced
back on the Retract Valve, shifting that valve closed and stopping the pilot signal from reaching the
“Feed Valve” (#2).

4−8
The drill continues to travel back up the feed until it reaches the rear of the feed. The operator MUST
return the “Feed Valve” (#2) to Neutral when the drill reaches the rear of the feed, as the “Feed Main
Relief” cartridge (#1) will dump oil to tank, preventing proper boom movement to set up for the next
hole.

Optional circuits associated with the Feed System:

Feed Enable circuit

The “Feed Enable” Solenoid cartridge (#11) is not commonly used, unless a Water Flushing System is
present on the machine. If drilling with Water Flushing, a loss of Water will cause the drill steel to stick.
We have a couple of ways to alert the operator that there is an issue with the water supply, one of
which monitors the water pressure at the Inlet assembly by means of a pressure switch. The Water
Inlet Pressure switch is wired Normally Closed and opens if the water pressure at the inlet is higher
than 50 PSI. When the inlet water pressure drops below 50 psi, the Inlet Water Pressure Switch
changes states; closing the switch and sending 24vDC to the “Feed Enable” Solenoid cartridge (#11),
causing the solenoid to energize, thus shifting the cartridge. Once the cartridge shifts, oil passes from
port 1 to port 2, which causes the “X” port of the “Feed valve” (#2) to become pressurized, which
causes the valve to reverse direction. That causes the feed to travel in reverse and stay reversed as
long as the Solenoid is energized. This indicates to the operator that there is a problem with the Water
Inlet and that condition must be corrected before the operator can continue to drill.

P3 circuit

The P3 circuit is primarily used to power the Drill’s rotation function, but is also used to power the
hydraulic driven cooling fan, and sometimes, the hydraulic driven water pump (on Water Flushing
machines) and the hydraulic drive Air Conditioning compressor if used.

Hydraulic Driven Cooling Fan Motor circuit


Oil comes from the P3 section of the main hydraulic pump (#3) and is sent to the hydraulic oil cooling
fan motor (#8) and its associated relief valve (#9). Those two components are plumbed in parallel to
each other to provide a means to continue the flow of P3 oil to subsequent uses. The relief valve is
used to create resistance (back pressure) to force the flow of oil through the hydraulic motor and can be
used to control the fan Speed, the higher the relief valve pressure setting, the faster the fan motor will
spin. Generally, with the relief valve set at 600 psi as read on the gauge port at the relief valve, the fan
motor spins at approximately 2900- 3000 RPMs.
Once leaving the oil cooler motor and relief, P3 oil then makes its way on to either any optional devices
like the hydraulic drive water pump circuit (#’s 20 &21) or the hydraulic driven Air Conditioning
Compressor circuit (not shown). For purposes of discussion, we will assume there is a water pump on
the machine.

4−9
P3 Function in Rotary IC Block

Once the P3 oil enters the Rotary IC Block (#10), it is split between two paths. The first path causes the
flow of oil through the check valve (#6) and merges with P1 oil to proceed to the Drill Rotation valve.
The second path is controlled by the Feed function. P3 oil meets the High Flow Control (#2) which
blocks the flow of oil to tank, when Feed Pressure is applied through the PH port of the Rotary IC Block
(#10). The action of the “High Flow Control” cartridge (#2) is subsequently controlled by the “High Flow
Adjust” cartridge (#15). The High Flow Adjust cartridge monitors the operating pressure of the drill and
shifts to allow oil from the PH Port to act on the “High Flow Control” cartridge (#2), or to drain the Pilot
portion of that cartridge back to tank. In effect, the above components interact to add or subtract P3 oil
to the Rotary Drill supply to maintain a constant supply of pressure and flow as the drill and ground
conditions require.

Return circuit

The Return circuit is comprised of Tank lines and Drain Lines (or Case Drains). Tank Lines from all
circuits return to the Return Manifold for collection prior to moving into the Return Filter in the Hydraulic
Tank. All Case Drains Return to the top of the Hydraulic Tank, as Case Drain Lines are subject to
pressure spikes if connected to the return manifold, which could cause damage to the drained
components by over pressurization. The return Manifold can see pressures of 10-40 psi. Generally
Case Drain pressures are not to exceed 10 psi, or seal blow outs can occur. The exception is the Tram
Pump and Motor, which due to the size of the lines, returns through the Return Manifold.

4−10
FLOW TEST REQUIREMENTS

Hydraulic drilling systems depend on proper flow from the pump to provide the fluid power to a
hydraulic drill, feed, boom, or chassis. Therefore, flow and pressure measurements are important ways
to troubleshoot faulty operating hydraulic systems. Temperature is another measurement necessary to
be taken when troubleshooting hydraulic drilling systems because temperature affects leakage,
pressure drops, and lubrication. Note, for example, the operating drill pressure of a drifter started up at
26°C (80°F) compared to the operating drill pressure of a drifter operating at a temperature of 49°C
(120°F); a drifter operating on a cold oil has a drill pressure of at least 14 Bar (200 psi) higher than a
drifter working at operating temperature.

Using flow meters, the operator can tell whether or not the pump is producing proper oil flow. Flow
meters also indicate whether or not a particular cylinder or motor is receiving the proper flow rate.
Pressure measurements provide a good indication of leakage problems and faulty hydraulic drill system
components such as pumps, pressure control valves, volume control valves, strainers, drifter and boom
problems.

Depending on where the flow meter in the hydraulic system is connected, it will help determine:

Pump flow at no load condition.

Pump flow at load conditions.

How much of the oil flow is not available for power at a desire pressure (as applied by load
valve = needle valve) to a particular component (drill, rotation, feed, boom, drive train) because
of:

a. Flow at a lower rate because of slippage inside the pump due to worn parts.

b. Flow over pressure relief valve due to worn seats or weak or improperly set springs.

c. Leakage past valve spools and seat back into the fluid supply reservoir without having
reached the working cylinder or motor.

d. Leakage past o-rings on cartridges back to tank.

e. Leakage past the cylinder packing or motor parts directly into the return line without
having produced any useful work.

WHEN NOT FAMILIAR WITH FLOW METERS, READ THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS OF YOUR
FLOW METER CAREFULLY BEFORE DOING A FLOW TEST!

DRILLING PRESSURE

Feed Thrust Pressure:


Most of the common regulation of feed thrust is a meter reading between 20-35 Bar
(300-500 psi) for collaring and 62-103 Bar (900-1500 psi) for full.

Rotation Pressure:
The most common reading of rotation pressure is 55-83 Bar (800-1200 psi). When
the machine drills orifices, softer or fractured rock the rotation pressure will decrease.
When the hole doesn't clean appropriately and/or the drill operation through a hole is
too fast, the rotation pressure will increase.

Collaring:
The collar pressure is fixed between 20-35 Bar (300-500 psi) and the collar pressure
control automatically keeps this pressure.

Drill:
The low drill pressure is 124-138 Bar (1800-2000 psi) and the full pressure is 148-
200 Bar (2150-2900 psi).

GENERAL TROUBLESHOOTING

In order to become a system and component trouble shooter, it is important to have a working
knowledge of hydraulic schematic reading and electrical schematics. After using your senses to get a
general idea of the problem, your flow meter should be used to pinpoint specific solutions to your
difficulties.

The Oldenburg Cannon Hydraulic Drill Controls depend on the proper flow and pressure from the gear
pump or the flow divider to generate the fluid power to operate the drill, feed, rotation, boom and other
hydraulic circuits. Therefore, flow and pressure measurements are important for troubleshooting
malfunctions in the hydraulic circuits. Oil should be at operating temperature, (48°C or 120°F) when
troubleshooting or taking flow measurements, because the viscosity changes with the temperature,
affecting leakage, pressure drops and lubrication.

When troubleshooting hydraulic systems, REMEMBER:

 Pressure is a result of resistance to flow.


 Pressure is force for work.
 All energy put into a hydraulic drilling system must come out either as work or as heat.
 When oil flow is restricted, heat is created and there is a loss of potential energy (pressure) for
doing work (i.e. a hose that is too small or restricted). On the other hand, some restrictions like
orifices are purposely built into the system.
 Flow through an orifice or restriction causes a pressure drop.
 Flow is motion for speed.
 Oil must be confined to create pressure for work. A tightly sealed hydraulic drilling system is a
must.
 Oil takes the path of least resistance.
 Oil is pushed into a pump, not drawn into it (atmospheric pressure supplies this pressure).
 A pump does not create pressure; it creates flow. Pressure is caused by resistance to flow.
 The most effective way to pinpoint troubles in the system is by testing with gauges and/or a flow
meter.

The charts on the following pages can help in listing all the possible causes of trouble when you begin
diagnosis and testing on a machine.

Before starting any testing, first check for external oil leaks and unusual noises in the system.

4−18
IMPORTANT! 

ALWAYS SHUT DOWN MACHINE, CHOCK WHEELS, AND ENGAGE ARTICULATION 
LOCK PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY MAINTENANCE! 

ALWAYS CHECK THE FOLLOWING BEFORE TROUBLESHOOTING:

 Is there oil in the tank?

 Is the pump turning?

 Are there any strange noises?

 Are there any warning lights on?

 Any sign of obvious failure?

 Oil all over the components or the ground?

 What was happening with the jumbo when failure occurred?

 What do the gauges tell you?

 Does anything smell burnt or strange?

QUESTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR:

 Can he/she describe what happened?

 Has this happened before?

 What is it not doing?

 Does he/she have any ideas?

COMPONENT FAILURE PROCEDURES

Regular use of the drill jumbo will eventually lead to component failure, which if not properly handled
will lead to further failures. The following procedures should be observed in order to minimize this
problem.

1. HOSES

a. General Hose Failure (excludes all drill hoses):

The replacement should be made up prior to removing the failed hose. All fittings should be capped
and hose ends plugged whenever a hose is removed. The replacement hose should be cleaned
preferably by flushing with a clean fluid (solvent or hydraulic oil). The failed hose should be removed
and the new hose installed taking whatever action is necessary to assure that no contaminants are
introduced.

b. Drill Hose Failure:

The section applies to all hoses attached to the drill between the drill controls and the drill which
includes drill percussion, drill rotation, and the drill lube. Te replacement hose should be made up prior
to removing the failed hose and cleaned as described above. The replacement hose should be
installed taking whatever action is necessary to assure the no contaminants are introduced. If the failed
hose was in either the drill percussion or rotation circuit it is necessary to remove both hoses of that
circuit from the drill and connect them together with a JIC tube union (#10 for rotation or #12 for drill).
Make sure that the fittings are capped after the hoses are removed. Start the hydraulic system and
bring to full operation RPM. Actuate the valve in the respective circuit to the forward position and allow
the oil to circulate for at least five minutes. This will wash all contaminants back to the return filter and
clean the system. Return the control valve to the neutral position and shut down the hydraulic system.
Remove the caps from the drill. Remove the hoses from the connector and install on the drill taking
whatever action is necessary to assure that no contaminants are introduced. If it is a hose in the drill
lube circuit that failed, make a replacement hose and install as described in section “a”. Remove the
lube line from the back of the drill and start jumbo air system. Actuate any valves or switches
necessary to get normal air pressure at the air lube pressure regulator. Let the air lube line blow for
five minutes to clean the line of all contaminants. Connect the line to the fitting at the rear of the drill.

4−44
2. DRILL

a. Percussor:

When a percussor has failed or is known to be failing (i.e. is hard starting, fails to start, stalls when
idling, etc.) and is removed from the machine, it is necessary to flush the hoses prior to connecting a
new drill. Percussor failure that is a result of piston scoring/seizure or breakage will produce metal
particles, which will enter the hydraulic system. Prior to connecting the hoses to the new percussor, the
hoses should be connected together and cleaned with the hydraulic system as described in section 1.b
above. Connect the hoses to the new drill after flushing for the required five minutes.

b. Rotation Motor:

Rotation motor failures will generate contaminants, which will enter the hoses and require flushing.
Prior to connecting the hoses to the new motor, the hoses should be connected together as described
in section 1.b above and flushed for five minutes with the hydraulic system. Connect the hoses to the
motor after the required flushing. Note that the P3 circuit is only filtered by the return filter.

c. Rotation Unit/Chuck:

Failure of bearings or bushings in the rotation unit of the drill will usually generate a substantial amount
of large contaminants, which can migrate to the percussion section due to the pumping action of the
piston. When a failure does occur it is recommended that the distributor and the piston be removed
from the cylinder assembly. The distributor, cylinder liner and piston should be cleaned of all
contaminants and examined for damage that might have occurred and not yet have affected percussor
operation. Any minor scoring can be buffed out at this time unless it is going to affect the life or
operation of the seals. The contaminants will sometimes be pumped into the air lube hose making it
necessary to purge the air lube before starting as described in section 1.b above.

3. PUMP

Removing and replacing a failed pump:

Clean all surfaces of components prior to removal. Remove hose as required and cap or plug all hoses
to protect against contamination. Before installing a new pump, flush the pressure hoses to remove
any metal shavings that have been left behind from the failure of the pump. Steam cleaning works well
for this purpose. Change any filters related to the circuit that you are working one. Install the new
pump on the pump adapter housing. Clean the mounting surface where the hose flanges locate and
make sure that there is no surface damage. Connect the hoses to the pump. Remove the two hoses
from the affected component (i.e. drill, cylinder or motor) and connect together with a tube union. Cap
the two fittings on the component. Make sure that all valves are in the neutral position. Start the
hydraulics system and run at the low RPM if it is a diesel driven pump. Listen for cavity noises, which
would indicate an air leak on the suction of the pump.

4−45
Actuate the component control valve and let the system run for a minimum of ten minutes in both
directions without actuating any other valves. This allows the pump to break in a low pressure and
clean the system of any contaminants generated by the failed pump.

If you have a catastrophic failure in the system that is running a motor, we recommend that you also
change the motor at this time.

On any hydrostatic system tram circuit, you should always change both the pump and the motor when
there is a failure of either component.

4. HYDRAULIC OIL COOLER (WATER TO OIL)

Remove the failed cooler from the system taking care to cap all fittings and plug all hoses. Drain all
possible oil from the hydraulic system and replace with new oil. Install the new oil cooler. Start the
hydraulic system and run for a minimum of ten minutes. Shut the hydraulic system down and let it
remain off for twelve minutes allowing the remaining water to separate from the oil. Drain the water
from the petcock at the bottom of the reservoir. If more than two gallons is removed it is necessary to
run the system and drain again. This procedure should be repeated until the water has been reduced
to an acceptable level. At this time, the main return filter should be changed. Water trapping filter
elements can also be used to speed up the process.

5. AIR LUBRICATION SYSTEM

If failure occurs in the air lubricator system preventing adequate air flow to the drill, it is necessary to
check the system and drill for contaminants that would be generated by the chuck area of the drill. The
natural pumping action of the drill piston will force material back up the lube line so all the lube lines
should be purged as describe in section 1.b above. The air purge line should be allowed to blow free of
contaminants and checked to be sure that an oil mist is present before connection to the drill.

6. GENERAL

Before any hydraulic assembly is changed, every effort should be made to remove all contaminants to
prevent them from entering the system and doing further damage.

7. NEW OR REBUILT DRILL START-UP PROCEDURE

Connect the hoses together and clean the hydraulic system by flushing ten to fifteen minutes before
connecting the hoses to the new drill.

Follow the normal start up procedure for the drill and it will start easily. Do not go full power. Let idle to
purge the air and fill it with oil. The sound of the drill will become louder as it changes from a low
frequency to a higher frequency humming sound. Roll feed assembly over so the fitting on the drill
points upward. This helps speed up the process.

4−46
It might be necessary to work the feed lever back and forth for short periods of time while the drill is
filling. This should only be done as a last resort to speed up the process. The drill might take up to ten
minutes to fill. When the drill reaches normal running temperature, proceed with the normal drilling
cycle.

8. HYDRAULIC FILTERS

After a major component failure all return and high pressure filters are to be changed. Then they must
be changed again after 40 hours of operation.

RE-START AFTER TROUBLESHOOTING

After troubleshooting is complete and any necessary repairs or adjustments have been made, refer to
the Operation section of this manual and follow all applicable safety precautions and procedures to re-
start the machine.
