1.4 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The model 2100R drill is a top drive hydraulically operated drill powered from the carrier
hydraulics. This versatile and manoeuvrable drill is designed to be mounted on an
excavator or similar carrier.
BEFORE STARTING:
1. ENSURE ANY QUICK RELEASE COUPLINGS ARE CORRECTLY FITTED.
2. MAKE CERTAIN ALL THE HYDRAULIC CONTROLS ARE IN NEUTRAL.
3. CONFIRM THE EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON IS CORRECTLY SET.
4. VERIFY THERE WILL BE NO DANGER TO ANYONE ONCE THE ENGINE
STARTS.
5. MAKE THOSE NEAR THE MACHINE AWARE YOU ARE STARTING THE
ENGINE.
6. CONFIRM GUARDING IS FUNTIONING CORECTLY
7. CHECK OVERHEAD FOR OBSTRUCTIONS.
OPERATORS’ CONTROLS (See fig (1)
A manual operators valve has the controls for operating the drill, rotation, feed travel,
injection pump, clamps and clamp rotation.
Rotation:
The rotation valve has 3 positions, detente down for clockwise or drilling
operations, spring centred neutral and up for anti-clockwise or reverse. Rotation speed
is primarily set by the head rotation motor selection. For finer rotation speed, the speed
control on the hand piece should be adjusted.
Feed: This control also has three positions, up, neutral and down, but no detent.
Designed for fast retract when tripping rods in or out. It is not recommended that the
fast feed retract and the rotation be used together. As they are on the same circuit, the
oil will take the path of least resistance and neither will function to capacity while the
other valve is engaged and may cause erratic and potentially dangerous functioning of
both the feed and rotation.
Caution: When using the feed function, do not drive the head into the limit stops
of the travel, either up or down, as this will damage the hydraulics and feed
system
