electrocution:

z Locate overhead utilities.




CHECK FOR UNDERGROUND UTILITY LINES
Before starting work, remember that contact with

buried utilities may cause serious injury or death.
Electric line contact may cause electric shock or
electrocution. Gas line contact may rupture pipe
causing explosion or fire. Fiber optic cables can blind
you if you look into the laser light in them. Water line
rupture may cause a flood and possible ground
collapse. Before drilling, check with qualified sources
to properly locate all buried utilities in and around drill
path. Select a drill path that will not intersect buried
utilities. Never launch a drill bit on a path toward
electric, gas, or water lines. Until their location is
known, have the utility company shut it off before
starting any underground work. Excavate to confirm
its exact location.
1-888-258-0808
3--2 IM6024ENG
If you contact an electrical line:
STEPPING ON OR OFF AN ELECTRICALLY CHARGED MACHINE CAN CAUSE

ELECTROCUTION.
Don’t allow anyone to approach the machine or any equipment connected to the
machine if a contact occurs. The machine and ground will become electrically charged.
When an electrical contact occurs, the ground surface near the machine will become
electrically charged. Large voltage differences may exist on the ground surface. If you
stand or walk in these electrically charged areas, a potentially strong current may pass
through you if the surface voltages at your feet are different. All personnel must be kept
away from the work area, and any equipment connected to the machine. An electrical
strike may also be indicated by electrical arcing, explosion, smoke, or popping where
the contact occurs.
If you are seated with both feet on the machine:
1. Do not get off the machine. The machine may be highly charged and cause injury or
death if you make contact with the machine and the ground while stepping off.
2. Retract the drill to the end of the stroke in an attempt to break contact with the
electrical power line.
3. Have someone who is clear of the work area contact the utility company to shut off
the electrical power.
IF THE POWER HAS NOT BEEN PROPERLY SHUT OFF, AN AUTOMATICALLY

RESETTING CIRCUIT BREAKER COULD REENERGIZE THE POWER LINE, CAUSING
THE EQUIPMENT AND GROUND TO AGAIN BECOME CHARGED IF THE MACHINE
IS CLOSE TO OR IN CONTACT WITH THE POWER LINE. DO NOT CONTINUE
DRILLING UNTIL THE UTILITY COMPANY HAS DECLARED THE AREA SAFE TO
RESUME THE OPERATION.
IM6024ENG 3--3
If you contact a gas or liquid line:
1. Shut off the engine and evacuate the area immediately.
2. Contact the utility company.
3. Do not return to the job site until the utility company has given
you permission to do so.
If you contact a fiber optic cable:
1. Do not look into the end. Fiber optic cables carry laser light
which will damage your eye. If you are not sure what kind of
cable it is, do not look into the end.
2. Contact the phone company.

ADJUSTMENTS (cont.)
Drifter Backpressure Adjustment (HC150)
The Drifter Backpressure manifold is used to enhance the rotation circuit so that the drill has a
more stable torque output. The normal pressure setting is somewhere between 800--1000 psi
(55--69 bar) depending Follow the instructions below to adjust the backpressure manifold.
Drifter Backpressure Manifold Adjustment:
1. Make sure the backpressure manifold adjustment screw is backed out before proceeding.
2. Start the machine and fully warm up the hydraulic oil temperature to normal operating
range.
3. Make sure that a 3000 psi (207 bar) or higher gauge is attached to the test port on the
backpressure manifold.
4. Have one drill steel and a bit on the drifter and have it hanging above ground. Turn on
the rotation.
5. Make sure that the rotation speed is at the normal RPM for drilling and observe the
gauge reading at the test port. Remember that reading and start turning the adjustment
screw clockwise to increase the reading to 800 to 1000 psi (55--69 bar) above the previous
reading. This completes the setting on the backpressure manifold.
Settings to Progressive Anti-jam adjustment to accommodate the new Drifter Backpressure Manifold:
1. Before drilling, adjust the original anti-jam setting so that the drill will not be stuck in anti-
jam due to the new rotation pressure created.
2. Locate the V4 (progressive anti--jam adjustment screw) and turn the screw clockwise until
it stops turning. (Refer to picture on next page.)
3. Drill a hole with the normal bit being used and make sure that the hole is as deep as it will
normally be drilled. While drilling with the last drill rod to be used, the anti-jam setting must
be reset to make the automatics work properly. The anti-jam screw must be turned counter-
clockwise while observing the drifter pressure at the small gauge panel located next to the
anti-jam manifold. As soon as the drifter pressure starts to drop and the drill stops moving
down the guide, stop turning the V4 adjustment screw. Now the V4 adjustment screw needs
to be turned clockwise just until the drifter pressure recovers back to 2150 psi (148 bar).
This makes the automatics as sensitive as possible. The setting may be turned clockwise a
little to allow for different drilling conditions or bit sizes. Just remember that this setting is
your anti-jam setting and can be made to be less or more sensitive depending on depth and
ground conditions.

V3 Drifter Power Regulation (4).
V3 measures actual feed force by sensing both forward and return feed pressures. The
V3 adjustment sets the minimum feed pressure required for full drifter power. This control will
continue to reduce the drifter power level to a 870 psi (60 bar) preset minimum as rock
resistance decreases.
Void Sensing (5).
This flow regulator limits the feed maximum flow to slightly above the drill rate. If the
feed flow while drilling in softer rock conditions reaches the preset maximum, the resulting
back pressure reduces the net feed force which acts on V3. This acts as both Void Sensing
and Collaring Control.
V4 Torque Limiting Progressive Feed Control (6).
V4 is an adjustable regulator which senses the pressure differential across the rotation
motor and acts directly upon feed flows. As drilling torque exceeds the preset limit, the V4
spool begins to shift to reduce the feed flows. These restricted feed flows result in lower feed
force and the feed motion slows down. At the same time (separate from the V4 adjustment
described) V3 lowers drifter percussion pressure in response to the feed force reduction.
When the drilling torque is far above the V4 setting the feed motion will first stop and then
reverse before the bit gets stuck. The V4 setting is made just above normal drilling
conditions to avoid reaction in homogeneous rock.

described) V3 lowers drifter percussion pressure in response to the feed force reduction.
When the drilling torque is far above the V4 setting the feed motion will first stop and then
reverse before the bit gets stuck. The V4 setting is made just above normal drilling
conditions to avoid reaction in homogeneous rock.

PRESETTING BEFORE DRILLING.
With the machine off:

1. Unlock safety nut and loosen V3 screw until the internal spring becomes free (V3 screw
returns to free rotation).
2. Unlock safety nut and fully release V2 screw (hold V3 screw to prevent retightening.)
3. Set the feed flow regulator 7 on position 10.
4. Remove V4 cap, and fully tighten V4 setting.
With the machine running:
5. Press the bit against the rock by acting on feed lever.
6. Preset drilling feed pressure (V1 setting) to 1000 --1500 psi (69 -- 103 bar).
PRESETTING WHILE DRILLING.
These settings must be carried out when oil has reached its normal operation temperature
(120 Degrees Fahrenheit).
7. Start drilling (flushing, rotation, percussion, feed) in homogeneous, non fractured rock
with drifter percussion control in “Auto” position.
8. Set the operating percussion pressure to 2550 psi (176 bar) for HC200 (or less
depending on the bit size, rod diameters, rock hardness...)
by adjusting the external relief valve on the air drifter valve compensator remote control
port. Check the pressure on “P2” gauge.
9. By acting on V1 screw, reset feed pressure for correct coupling motion: about
.039 inches (1 mm) vibration and coupling temperature less than 212oF (100oC).
Control simultaneously penetration rate and coupling temperature. If coupling
temperature is above limit although coupling vibration is correct, reduce operating
percussion pressure by reducing the drifter pressure relief valve setting.
4--26 IM6024ENG
SETTING WHILE DRILLING.
Setting the Void Sensing flow regulator on feed return A2.

10. While drilling the starter rod (or the rod drilled at the highest drilling rate) progressively
close the flow regulator 5 until the feed back pressure reaches 72.5 psi (5 bar) (check
the pressure on ”A2“ gauge).
11. Then, re--open the flow regulator 5 by 1 division. For example if position 6 creates
72.5 psi (5 bar) back pressure, re--open the flow regulator to ,position 7.
Setting the V3 Drifter Power Regulator.

This setting must be carried out when drilling conditions allow maximum percussion pressure
and actual feed force (i.e. hard, non fractured rock, feed back pressure “A2” = 0 bar.
12. With a wrench, hold V2 screw in position.
13. Tighten V3, until percussion pressure drops (check the pressure on ”P2” gauge).
14. Loosen so as to recover the initial pressure plus an additional 1/4 turn.
15. While drilling with drifter percussion control alternatively in ”Auto” and ”Manual”
positions, verity that the percussion pressure remains the same.
16. Secure all locking nuts. V4 Progressive Feed Control Setting.
Setting the V4 Torque Limit.

17. While drilling the last rod (or the rod drilled with the highest rotation torque) in
homogeneous ground, loosen V4 setting until the feed back pressure slightly
increases (check the pressure on ”A2” gauge).
18. Then re--tighten V4 settings 1 turn.
