3. STRUCTURAL DESCRIPTION

The feed movement is transferred to the rock drill through the carriage. Changes in the
force affecting the chain are counteracted by a shock absorber mounted between the
carriage and the chain when the drill carriage is run with fast feed against the rear stopper.
This arrangement increases the operational life and reliability of the chain. When required,
the chain tension is easily adjustable with a single adjusting screw.
The beam profile allows the sliding clearances between the carrier and the rail to be
adjusted with shims. This adjustment has to be be done when regularly.
The required adjustments are done by loosening the bolts of the carriage and removing
or adding shims under the wear pieces.
The drill rod is supported by a hydraulically operated Pito 12 H retainer. When the whole
length of a rod has been drilled in, the extension sleeve of the rod is gripped with the Pito
retainer while a new extension rod is added. During drilling, the retainer operates as a
fixed retainer, guiding the drill rod.
The feed chain is driven by a hydraulic motor with brake via a two--stage reduction gear
or by a direct drive motor via a sprocket.

5. FEED CHAIN TIGHTENING

Checking the chain tightness

Run the rock drill up (not against the


limiter). Ensure that the drill bit does not
rise through the suction head rubber.
Also ensure that the chain is free from
strain.
Push the chain laterally. The tightness of
the chain is correct when the chain only
just touches the inner edge of the feed
rail. Otherwise, adjust the chain
tightness according to the instructions
below.

1 The feed chain is tightened by moving


the rear sprocket (3). The axle of the
sprocket is moved by turning the bolt (1)
going through the end casing of the
2
beam.
Chain-- tightening
Loosen the locking nuts (2 and 4).
Turn the clamp bolt (1) clockwise until
the chain tightness is correct. Do not
4 3 tighten the chain too much!
Tighten the locking nuts (2 and 4).

CHAIN FEED CF 145 H + RH 714


Maintenance instruction

Make the adjustment with the feed beam in horizontal position and the rock drill carriage
run to the rear end of the beam; this way the clearances are the smallest. After the
adjustment make sure that the carriage moves freely on the beam.
The clearance between the feed rail and drill carriage/hose reel is adjusted by adding or
removing the shims (1, 2). By removing shims the clearance is decreased; by adding
shims it increases. The optimum clearance is about 0,5 to 1,0 mm. Tightening torque for
the bolts (3) is 260 Nm.
When urethane coating of the upper slide piece (4) has been worn to half (approx. 4 mm)
an extra shim (5) has to be added between the slide piece and carriage. Otherwise the
drilling centre moves out of alignment as the drill carriage moves lower i.e. nearer the feed
rail. In that case the centralizer and drill shank are not in alignment; this will cause
problems with drilling tools.
One shim is needed for each upper slide piece (two pieces for carriage and four pieces
for hose reel). When replacing the slide pieces the shim is removed and stored until
needed again.
The slide pieces have to be replaced when urethane coating is nearly worn out. It is
important that they are changed in time; uncoated piece wears out the feed rail quickly.
Too small clearances strain the feed chain and wear down the beam
unnecessarily, whereas too large clearances make drilling more difficult
and cause strains, for instance, on the rock drill shank. The clearance
CAUTION should be maintained equal under each wear piece.

7. HOSE GUIDE MOVEMENT TIMING


The purpose of the hose guide is to keep the hoses in order and properly tightened
throughout the feed travel. Correctly adjusted timing keeps the distances a1 and a2 equal
throughout the feed forward and reverse movements.

7.1. Effects of incorrect timing


Incorrectly adjusted hose guide timing may cause two situations that result in
unnecessary strain on the equipment.
1. The hose guide reaches its stopper too early at the end of the return movement
(distance a1 smaller than a2). As the rock drill continues moving, the hose guide
drive mechanism and spring will be subjected to unnecessary strains and may
even break down.
2. The rock drill catches up with the hose guide during the return movement (distance
a2 smaller than a1). The speed of the rock drill is twice the speed of the hose guide
and, therefore, the carriage will force the hose guide ahead. The chain and the
hose guide drive mechanism will be subjected to unnecessary strains.
Incorrect hose guide timing always increases the danger of equipment
failure.

CAUTION

Never use incorrect hose guide timing for any purpose

7.2. Timing adjustment


When timing is correctly adjusted, the distances a1 and a2 should always be equal. The
best position to check the distances is when the rock drill carriage is approx. at the middle
of the feed beam. If the distances are not equal, adjust them as follows:
1. If the feed chain is normally tightened, loosen it a little.
2. Remove the slide piece (1) above the hose guide drive wheel and the adjusting
plates (2) from between the slide piece and the hose guide body.

3. Move the hose guide so that the distances a1 and a2 become equal; guide the feed
chain over the hose guide chainwheel.
4. Install the slide piece and place adjusting shims underneath it to make the
clearance between the chainwheel and the slide piece to a minimum value of 2 to
4 mm.
5. Tighten the feed chain to normal tightness
6. Recheck the distances a1 and a2.
7. Test run the the feed movement and check that:
-- the hose guide reaches the rear stopper at the same moment when the
rock drill carriage catches up with the hose guide. Thus the distances a1
and a2 should close simultaneously.
-- the hose guide shock absorber is at rest when the movement has
stopped.
Remember to lock the feed chain adjustments.

CAUTION

Install the slide piece above the hose guide drive wheel before

CAUTION

It is possible that the chain pitch does not allow exactly equal distances
a1 and a2. In such cases, the maximum allowable difference between a1
and a2 is approx. 15 mm. Always adjust timing to give the smallest
CAUTION possible difference.

8. REPLACING FEED CHAIN


1. Position the feed horizontal to prevent the rock drill carriage from sliding by itself
when the chain has been disconnected.
2. Run the rock drill to approx. one metre from the rear stopper.
3. Loosen the feed chain. Several threads should, however, be left in mesh between
the adjusting bolt and its connecting piece.
4. Disconnect the rock drill hoses. Plug them and mark their positions.
5. Remove the bolts that fasten the rock drill to the carriage, and lift the rock drill away
onto a bench. Use proper hoist and lifting straps.
6. Disconnect both ends of the chain, and connect the new chain to the end of the
old one on the front side of the rock drill carriage. Use a separate chain link for
connecting the chains. Improvised connections may cause problems in the next
step.
7. Run the combined chains through the feed mechanism while guiding the chain
ends. Stop at a point where the ends of the new chain are at the shock absorber
ears. Remove the chain link between the chains, and connect the new chain.
8. Adjust the chain to correct tightness

Guide both ends of the chain as necessary. Be careful not to leave your
hands in a pinch.

WARNING

Use new connecting pins with the new chain.

9.1. Feed gear


The feed motor is an Orbit type hydraulic motor.
The feed gear uses gearwheels that reduce the speed of rotation in two stages.
Note!
It is possible to remove the feed gear, replace the front chainwheels and remove the hose
guide while the rock drill is mounted to the carriage because the chain can be cut from the
connecting link slightly below the rock drill.
Disassembling feed mechanism
1. Wash the feed mechanism thoroughly.
2. Disconnect the feed chain. Run the feed chain out of the feed mechanism while
guiding the chain carefully.
3. Disconnect the feed motor hoses and plug the connections at once.
4. Drain the oil out of the reduction gear housing through the plug (25).
5. Remove the mechanism from the feed beam and drain the rest of the oil out.
6. Place the mechanism on a suitable work bench, and remove the motor (28), the
covers (2, 10 and 13), and the locks (29, 37, 38) of the idling chainwheels (7).
Remove the axle (9); the chainwheel (7), the bushing (8) and the wedge (32) are
removed at the same time.
7. The bearings (17) on the side of the cover (2) come off together with the cover. If
the bearing remain on the axle, remove them with a puller.
8. Remove the snap ring (21). Then you can remove the gearwheel (5) and the other
snap ring (20).
9. Pull the intermediate shaft (4) out.
10. Press the drive shaft (6) out.
11. Remove the bearings (17 and 18) and the sealing ring (19).
12. Wash the parts to remove all impurities. If the gear unit is not reassembled straight
away, oil the axles and the gearwheels.
Reassembling feed mechanism
1. Install new bearings and sealing ring.
2. Drive the drive shaft (6) into place. Note! Use a counterpiece that prevents the
bearing from being pushed out.

3. Install the snap ring (20) and drive the drive shaft back until the snap ring is against
the inner race of the bearing. In this position, the drive shaft chainwheel is in line
with the other chainwheels.
4. Reassemble the shafts in reversed disassembly order.
5. Install the cover (2) using sealing compound (41) on the mating surfaces of the
cover and the housing.
6. Use chemical thread locking compound on all bolt fastenings.
7. Mount the feed motor (28). Use sealing compound and thread locking compound.
8. Install the idling chainwheels (7) (note the wedges 32) and lubricate their axles (9)
through the grease nipples (27).
9. Fill the gearbox with 2,4 litre of transmission oil through the cover (13) (half way
up the drive shaft (6) when the feed is in vertical position). Use SAE 80W/90 API
GL5 or SAE 75W/90 API GL5 transmission oil depending on the ambient
temperature, Cf. oil recommendations. Close the cover (13).
10. Thread the feed chain through the reduction gear and mount the mechanism to
the beam. If necessary, use the opening under the cover (10) to help the chain
forwards.
11. Install the cover (10).
12. Connect the chain to the rock drill carriage and adjust the feed chain to correct
tightness.
13. Connect the feed motor hoses.
14. Test run the feed cautiously.
If the repair was made because of a broken sealing ring (19), check
always the feed motor axle seal also. A leaking axle seal of the feed motor
causes pressure in the gear housing and can, thus, damage the reduction
CAUTION gear sealing ring.
As the feed chain is disconnected for the work, check also the connecting
pins between the chain and the carriage, and replace them if necessary.

10. SHOCK ABSORBER


The main purpose of the shock absorber, located under the rock drill, is to even the stress
peaks on the feed chain when the drill carriage is run with fast feed against the rear
stopper. The arrangement increases feed chain life. The spring is not active during drilling.
