Operator’s instructions 7. Drilling 4. Move the rock drill up by setting the lever for rapid feed in UP position. Once the rock drill has reached its upper position, set the lever in NEUTRAL position. 5. Move in a new drill steel from the carousel to drill centre by moving the control lever for rod handling backwards.
Operator’s instructions 7. Drilling Continued drilling 1. Raise the cradle approx. 100mm by moving the Rotation/Feed lever to RETURN FEED position. 2. Percussion pressure must be low when starting drilling. Prepare by setting the switch for percussion pressure to REDUCED PERCUSSION PRESSURE posi- tion.
Operator’s instructions 7. Drilling 6. Unscrew the rod and put it to one side. 7. Lower the rock drill by holding the rapid feed lever in the DOWN position and then thread the shank adapter into the coupling sleeve that is fastened in the drill steel support by holding the rotation lever in DRILL ROTATION position.
Operator’s instructions 7. Drilling 12. Unscrew the shank adapter fully from the drill steel. Hold the rotation lever in BACKWARD ROTATION position. Move the lever back to NEUTRAL once the shank adapter has been unthreaded. 13. If a sleeve retainer is in use then it must now be opened. 14.
Operator’s instructions 7. Drilling 3. Move the drill bit forward until it is pressed against the rock. 4. Switch on high percussion pressure for several seconds. 5. Switch off percussion pressure when the drill bit has loosened. If the percussion pressure is engaged for too long then the drill steel can detach from the shank adapter.
Operator’s instructions 7. Drilling reduce rotation speed as much as possible without causing the drill string to rotate jerkily check the drill feed pressure and set it to the recommended value. Reduce percussion pressure to below the basic setting (5-10 bar). A reasonable reduction in penetration rate must be accepted.
Operator’s instructions 8. Options 8. Options Thread lubrication Thread lubrication with brushes Function Drill steel threads are lubricated using two brushes (C) mounted on the RHS carousel lower bracket. Grease comes from a pump (B) located in a grease container (A) at the rear on the right-hand side of the rig.
Operator’s instructions 8. Options Figure: Brushes for thread lubrication. Operation During normal use, the system will operate automatically. The grease pump will then operate when the rod handling lever is in position to move a rod to the drill centre. This means that each time a rod is moved out from the carousel, a certain amount of grease will be pumped to the brushes that the rod threads subsequently pass.
The entire system can be turned off by stopping the supply of air with the cock (C). We recommend using Atlas Copco Secoroc thread grease A for lubrication of drill steel threads.

Operator’s instructions 8. Options Preparations for assembly 1. Set the feed in a vertical position with the aid of a spirit level. Adjust forward/rear- ward for a precise vertical reading. 2. Adjust left/right for a precise vertical reading. 3. Check that both left/right and forward/rearward are still vertical. Figure: Assembly 1.
Operator’s instructions 8. Options Adjust ROC-ANGIE to a zero reading 1. Loosen and retighten all bolts by hand. Look at the upper scale and adjust (a) the left/right bolts to an exact zero reading on the (b) upper scale. Tighten the left/ right bolts by hand.
Operator’s instructions 8. Options Installation 1. Choose an aiming point (the further away, the better). 2. Loosen the handle on the top of ROC-ANGIE. 3. Look through the aim and turn ROC-ANGIE around until the centre arrow in the aim is exactly in the middle of the tree and between the two outer arrows. If neces- sary, adjust the aim or move it to the other side by undoing the knob at the bottom of ROC-ANGIE.
