3. Application

General
The rig with its peripheral equipment is designed for drilling holes in tunnels and
mines. The rig, which is equipped with Atlas Copco accessories to enable installation
of a specific type of rock bolt, is to be considered as being solely designed for this
purpose.

All other applications are considered inappropriate.

Examples of inappropriate use:

• Lifting and transporting loads and people

• Supporting objects
• Scaling rock

The manufacturer is not liable for damage caused by inappropriate use.

• It is essential the operator has read and comprehends the operator, maintenance
and overhauling instruction as well as the maintenance schedules.
• The rig and its peripheral equipment must only be used, maintained and repaired
by personnel well conversant with the equipment and the dangers involved.
• It is essential that personnel observe general and local safety, health and traffic
regulations.
• The manufacturer is not liable to damage caused by any arbitrary changes made to
the drilling equipment.

General
Note
To ensure optimal utilisation of the rig and its equipment, it is of utmost importance
that daily maintenance is carried out in accordance with our recommendations.

The objective for the daily inspection of the rig is to:

• detect faults at an early stage

• facilitate servicing
• allow scheduled maintenance and planned reconditioning work to be performed
• prevent costly secondary damage
• prevent breakdowns
• prevent personal injury

Note
Do not operate the rig or the rig equipment until all faults have been rectified.

Checklist
Note
As soon as a fault is detected, note it and report to maintenance personnel.

• Always begin by making an inspection round.

Environment

ENVIRONMENTAL DIRECTIONS

• Think of the environment!

• Engine exhaust gases are toxic and
hazardous to the environment.
• Good ventilation is required when the
diesel engine is running.
• Well maintained air filters help to keep
emissions low.

Before starting the diesel engine

N.B.
It is important that the daily inspection checkpoints have been carried out to ensure
that the equipment is in good condition. See operator's instructions Daily inspec-
tion.

1. Check the engine oil level. If topping up is necessary, see maintenance instruc-
tions Diesel engine: Oil system.

2. If the rig is fitted with a particle filter for exhaust emission control, make sure the
filter is not attached to the flashing unit.

29

4. Check the fuel level on the gauge on the driving panel.

5. Check the hydraulic oil level in the level glass on the hydraulic reservoir. Top up
as necessary, see maintenance instructions Hydraulic system: Changing oil.

6. Check the coolant level in the diesel engine. Top up as necessary, see mainte-
nance instructions Diesel engine: Cooling system.

7. On rigs with a scrubber, check the water level in the scrubber. If topping up is nec-
essary, see maintenance instructions Exhaust filtering.

Starting the diesel engine

All emergency stops must be pulled out and the parking brake applied. The gear
selector switch must be in the neutral position and the knob for hydraulic pressure (on
the hydraulic panel) must be in the “OFF” position.

1. Preheat the diesel engine if it is cold by turning the ignition key to position 1. The
engine is preheated (after approx. 5-10 seconds).

2. Press the lamp test button to check that all warning lamps in the panel light up.

3. Start the diesel engine by turning the key to position 2. Release the key as soon as
the engine has started.

Note
If the rig is equipped with start warning the rig starts after four seconds when the
key is in the start position, see also Safety instructions Warning signal Start warn-
ing.

 Operator’s instructions
6. Tramming

4. Check that the warning lamps extinguish. When the parking brake is released, the
parking brake indicator lamp goes out.

5. If any of the warning lamps do not go out, or if the engine does not start, check the
fuses in the box (A50).

Note
Certain rigs have a function that prevents electric motors and the diesel engine run-
ning at the same time. If the electric motors are running when the diesel engine is
started then they are automatically switched off. The diesel engine must first be
switched off in order to restart the electric motors.

Before tramming
1. Check that the boom is positioned so that it does not obstruct the view or impede
operation of the carrier unit. See operator's instructions Positioning.

2. Check that the jacks are retracted.

3. Turn on the head lights.

4. Make sure that nobody is standing within the rig's risk area.

Checking the brakes

Checking the parking brake

N.B.
This test must not be performed for longer than four (4) seconds as there is a risk
of overheating the hydraulic system.

1. Make sure that the parking brake is applied.

2. Start the diesel engine and engage 1st gear.

3. Gradually increase engine rpm to maximum.

4. Check the rig for movement. If the rig moves then the self-adjusting brakes must
be repaired or replaced without delay.

Setting up the rig

With each new setting-up of the rig it is essential that it is correctly aligned. See
Safety, Rig stability.

1. Manoeuvre the rig to the where drilling is to take place. Position it at right angles
to the centre of the tunnel face, parallel to the direction of drilling. It must be pos-
sible to manoeuvre the booms past the parts of the rock face that protrude the
most.

2. Set up the rig on its jacks. Start with the front jacks and then the rear jacks until the
rig is level (observe the spirit level in the cabin).

Note
The following points are important to observe:
• The rig must be raised so that none of the wheels is in contact with the ground.
• The rig must be standing steadily while drilling to avoid disturbing the naviga-
tion.

3. Adjust the direction of each boom as specified by the surveyor. See operator's
instructions Positioning.

4. The rig is now ready for drilling.

Angle indication

Working menu, production drilling

Figure: Working menu, production drilling

The working menu for production drilling displays three angles:

• Rotation Angle
Rotation angle can be between 0 and 360 degrees.
• Lookout angle
The lookout angle can theoretically assume values between -180 and +180
degrees (the angle is limited mechanically to smaller values).
• Horizontal angle
The horizontal angle can theoretically assume values between -180 and +180
degrees (the angle is limited mechanically to smaller values).

The working menu for production drilling also displays information about rotation
angle and which lookout direction will give a greater angular value. This is displayed
with symbols in the top right-hand corner of the menu, where the arrow in the sym-
bols specifies a positive direction.

Display of lookout angle and horizontal angle

The lookout angle and horizontal angle are calculated mathematically using the value
from two sensors. When the feeder approaches horizontal position it is not possible to
calculate lookout angle. For this reason the system instead shows horizontal angle
when the feeder is in this position (B).

From here you can go directly to the working menu for drift drilling (A) and the
working menu for production drilling (B) which are the menus the operator has the
greatest use for. Other menus are used when necessary for viewing and changing set-
tings, and to get information that can be helpful when troubleshooting. Described
here are the operator menus, the ones that are greyed in the menu structure are main-
tenance menus for settings and calibration. The maintenance menus are described in
the maintenance manual.

General
For the air conditioning system to operate at maximum efficiency, it is important to
keep the cabin as clean as possible. Rubbish and dirt could otherwise get into the sys-
tem and clog it.

Air conditioning always works best if the cabin doors are kept closed.

Periodically check the sight glass by the condenser. Air bubbles in the glass indicate
that system refrigerant is running low. Charging the system with refrigerant must
always be carried out by authorised mechanics only.

The control panel is located in the cabin roof. The panel has a knob (1) with 3 fan set-
tings. An air nozzle (3) regulates the air in the cabin. The button (2) is used to switch
the air conditioning on/off.

Tip

At high ambient temperature and when there is misting in the

cabin
To achieve the best cooling effect at high ambient temperature and if the cabin win-
dows mist up, the fastest way to demist the windows is to switch on the air condition-
ing. Switch on the air conditioning by pressing the button (2) and regulate the air
flow using the knob (1).
