Management of all waste fluids drained from the machine
2.2.6
Such fluids cannot be disposed of in the environment and should be taken to
waste collection centres in compliance with the regulations in force in the
country where the machine operates.
2.3 Scheduled checks on ropes and pulleys
Visual inspection of ropes
2.3.1
The machine is equipped with two winches and relative ropes:
• the main winch for telescopic Kelly bar sliding;
• the auxiliary winch for lifting the machine accessories or elements related to
making the hole;
The tables below illustrate the frequency and methods for checking
the ropes.
Main winch rope inspection
Visual inspection with the mast in transport position of the
section of rope from the winch to the swivel and rope terminal.
This last part can get damaged more easily in the event of
operating abnormalities of the swivel.
Inspection of the entire rope while making a hole; when the hole
has been completed, one must check the descent of the Kelly
bar into the hole at low speed, inspecting the rope closely during
the rotation of the winch drum.
If one finds worn points measure the diameter, with the engine
off, (it must not fall below more than 7% of the nominal value);
If one finds anomalies in shape or broken wires, refer to paragraph 3.2.1
