WINKIE DRILL ASSEMBLY PARTS MANUAL 

 

  

WINKIE: THE MOST OUTSTANDING BUY IN ITS FIELD: 

Meet a pint-size powerhouse, driller’s drill, ready to rewrite your footage costs with its nine (9) 
outstanding features. 

 

Lower Maintenance 

 

Maintenance costs are reduced over the conventional core drill, resulting from 

minimizing the moving parts, and having only three precision machined analoy castings in the drill itself.

 

 

Lower Moving Costs –

 

Setup and moving costs are very low. Savings may be made with carrying the 

Winkie Drill to the site, in lieu of building roads.

 

 

Lower Labor Costs –

 

Labor cost may be cut by 50% through using only one man to operate the Winkie. 

Save by not building roads for the portable carry-in-hand Winkie. 

 

Lower Fuel Costs –

 

Fuel consumption under full load is approximately 3 to 4 gallons per drilling shift.

 

 

Lower Diamond Bit Costs –

 

Dynamic balance in this drill means less rod vibration; thus, less drill rod and 

corebarrel wear, and most important, LESS DIAMOND BIT COST. 

 
High R.P.M. –

 

High Speed bit rotation plays a very important role in reducing bit cost, in addition to yielding 

a greater daily footage. It is recognized that diamond wear is reduced as speed of rotation approaches 700 
RPM, above 700 RPM, and up to Winkie speed of 2000 RPM.

 

 

Less Handling of Tools –

 

The overhead principle drive on the Winkie allows as great as 3 foot runs without 

rechecking on the drill rod. Compare chucking time of 36 inch strokes for the Winkie, against conventional 
drills with 24 inch strokes. 

 
Less Water Required –

 

Drilling with the minimum water requirements is the best policy with the Winkie.

 

 
Experience –

 

No experienced Diamond Drill Operator is required. A minimum of instruction is required.

 

 
Plus these added features –  

         

Full 10 H.P. 2 cycle gasoline engine. 6000 RPM. 

            Torque resolving safety clutch. 
            Built-in water swivel with adjustable packed type water seal.                                                                   
            Vacuum carburetion system to allow continued operation of the engine at any conceivable angle. 
            Circular holding ring (for protection of the unit and complete selection of gripping areas.) 
            Hardened spur gears for quieter, smoother and longer operation. 
            Water-cooled gear box. 
            Recess mounted bearings designed with a safety factor of “3”. 
            Unipress mechanical pull down pressure feed.
