The manual provides information and instructions for operating hydraulic components on drilling rigs, with an emphasis on safety procedures for releasing stuck drill strings.

The manual describes components such as check valves, pressure regulators, remote controls, overcenter valves, pressure relief valves, flow control valves and their functions.

Section 27 outlines a two-step procedure for releasing stuck drill strings when the top drive is stalled at either maximum or lower residual torque, involving slowly releasing pressure using control valves while monitoring gauges.

3 PRESSURE REGULATOR (CONTROL PANEL)


3.1 pressure relief valve dbdH

Model DBDH-6 REXROTH (Part# 50850894)

Fig. 3-1.1 Fig. 3-1.2

The DBD pressure relief valve are direct operated poppet valves. They are used to limit the pressure in a hydraulic
system.
The valves mainly consist of sleeve (1), spring (2), poppet with damping spool (3) (pressure stages 25 to 400 bar) or
ball (4) ( pressure stage 630 bar ) and adjustment element (5). The setting of the system pressure if infinitely variable
via the adjustment element (5). The spring (2) pushes the poppet (3) onto the seat. The P channel is connected to
the system. The pressure present in the system is applied to the poppet area ( or ball).
If the pressure in channel P rises above the value set at the spring (2), the poppet (3) or ball (4) opens against the
spring (2). Now pressure fluid flows channel P into channel T. The stroke of the poppet (3) is limited by a pin (6).
In order to mantain a good pressure settings over the entire pressure range the pressure range is split into 7 pressure
stages. One pressure stage corresponds to a certain spring for a maximum operating pressure which may be set
with it.

WARNING
If the filtration demands are not met, the valve poppets can jam in the open position, with the result that the
valve remains actuated. It is not possible to force back jammed poppets mechanically.

Lever forces
All lever forces stated are applicable at a control pressure of 15 bar (valve not fitted with an extra centring spring).
Pedal forces are applicable when the C2 centring spring is used (see page 9).

Normal force for linear lever, fully actuated 1.2 Nm

4.1.2 control pressure

Control pressure
Control pressure characteristics can be obtained in an almost infinite number of versions. They are classified into
four different groups.
• Straight characteristic
• Straight characteristic with overtravel stroke
• Broken characteristic
• Broken characteristic with overtravel stroke

With the straight characteristic, the control pressure changes proportionally with the lever stroke. With the broken
characteristic, the control pressure changes proportionally with the lever stroke up to a pre-determined breakpoint,
after which the characteristic continues to change proportionally, but with a steeper characteristic. This is useful when
there is a big difference between breakout pressure and final pressure and a need to fine-regulate the beginning of
the stroke.
With the overtravel stroke, the control pressure becomes equal to the supply pressure. This is recommended primarily
for directional valves that have a free flow gallery (CFO). The overtravel stroke serves to ensure full actuation regar-
dless of any return-spring tolerances in the spool actuator of the directional valve.

To calculate a suitable control-pressure characteristic, the following information is needed:

Breakout pressure:
The pressure at which the valve just begins to open.
Selectable between 1 and 16 bar.

Final pressure:
Max. control pressure (fully actuated activating device) or, in case of overtravel stroke, the pressure level
obtained on reaching the overtravel stroke. Selectable between 5.5 and 75 bar.

Breakpoint:
The lever stroke and pressure at which the broken characteristic changes characteristic.

Overtravel stroke:
The part of the activating-device stroke that constitutes overtravel.

Fig. 5-1.1
5.1.1 general description

Pressure valves are pilot operated controls consisting of two or three valve sections, either a high flow, poppet type
seat valve section controlled by the low flow, adjustable pilot mounted on top or in the case of the Proportional Pressure
Relief Valve, the proportional section P2 sandwiched between the pilot valve and the main body.

Pressure setting is achieved by means of a knurled knob or, if a tamperproof setting is required, by an acorn nut with
lead seal. A proportional pressure setting is achieved according to the current input by R5V....P2.

5.1.2 PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE

R5V pressure relief valves are used to limit the system pressure of a hydraulic system, in order to control the force
exerted by a hydraulic actuator. The R5V valve may also used to generate a pressure drop in a hydraulic circuit.
Normally the pump is connected to Port A and the tank line to Port B.

7.5 hydraulic cylinder holding valves

Drillmec uses a specially-designed overcenter valve on all hydraulic cylinders which operate jib crane. These valves
seal the hydraulic cylinder to prevent it from creeping or moving until pressure
is applied to it. If too much weight ia applied to a boom section, it also acts as a structural safety valve and relieves
the excess pressure at a controlled rate. A holding valve is installed at both ends of the hydraulic cylinder to prevent
movement and limit pressure in either direction.

8. PRESSURE REDUCING / RELIEVING VALVE


8.1 PRESSURE REDUCING/RELIEVING VALVE ( TOP DRIVE/HANDLING ) PP*B SUN (
pART# 50850964 )

Fig. 8-1.1
DESCRIPTION

Pilot-operated, pressure reducing/relieving valves reduce a high primary oressure at the inlet ( port 2 ) to a constant
reduced pressure at port 1, with a full-flow relief function port 1 to tank ( port 3 )

TECHNICAL FEATURES

Full reverse flow from reduced pressure (port 1) to inlet (port 2) may cause the main spool to close. If reverse free
flow is required in the circuit, consider adding a separate check valve to the circuit.
If pilot flow consumption is critical, consider using direct acting reducing/relieving valves.

Recommended maximum inlet pressure is determined by the adjustment range. Ranges D, E, N, and Q are tested
with a 2000 psi (140 bar) maximum differential between inlet and reduced pressure. Ranges A, B, and H are tested
with a 3000 psi (200 bar) maximum differential between inlet and reduced pressure. Ranges C and W are tested with
5000 psi (350 bar) of inlet pressure.

Pilot operated valves exhibit exceptionally flat pressure/flow characteristics, are very stable and have low hystere-
sis.

Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar).

Pilot operated reducing, reducing/relieving valves by nature are not fast acting valves. For superior dynamic response,
consider direct acting valves.

All three-port pressure reducing and reducing/relieving cartridges are physically interchangeable (i.e. same flow path,
same cavity for a given frame size). When considering mounting configurations, it is sometimes recommended that
a full capacity return line (port 3) be used with reducing/relieving cartridges.

Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive
installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge machining variations.

11. sandwich style directional valve section


11.1 general description

The directional spool valves types PSV serve to control both, the direction of movement and the load-independent,
stepless velocity of the hydraulic consumers. In this way several consumers may be moved simultaneously, indepen-
dently from each other at different velocity and pressure ratings, as long as the sum of the partial flows needed for
this is within the total delivery supplied by the pump.
The proportional spool valves of this pamphlet are designed as valve banks and consist of three functional groups:

1. Connection Block: Pump side with ports for pressurized oil inlet P and return R back to the tank as well as
additional control and measurement ports LS, Z, M
• Depending on the nature of the pressurized oil supply either by constant delivery pump (open center) or
variable displacement pump (closed center) / constant pressure system
• Depending on the port size for P and R
• With or without integrated control oil supply
• With or without pressure limiting valve
• With or without arbitrary idle pump circulation (safety circuit)

2. 4/3- and 3/3-way directional spool valve: Add-on valves, up to 12 units may be added laterally to the connection
block, with consumer ports A and B
• Depending on the flow pattern
• Depending on the max. permissible consumer flow at the spool’s max. elevation
• Depending on the additional functions on the secondary side, e.g. pressure limiting valves, functional cut-
off
• Depending on the type of actuation
• Additional functions incorporated in other intermediate plates

3. End plate : As completion of the valve bank


• With internal drain or port T for the return flow of control oil
• With or without additional port LS / pump circulation cut-off

12. accumulators for hydraulic


12.1 charging accumulators

Check the accumulator gas charge every 6 months or 1,000 hours. Read all of the instructions before beginning the
job. Accumulators must be charged only with dry nitrogen. Never use compressed air or oxygen (Fig. 12-1.1), as
the oxygen molecules will combine with the hydraulic oil and lower the flash point of the oil to below room tempera-
ture.
You will create a major explosion by using compressed air or oxygen to charge accumulators. People
have died using compressed air or oxygen to charge accumulators. Use dry nitrogen, not liquid nitrogen.

CHARGING CAN RESULT IN
DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY!
* Follow the charging instructions exactly!
* Use ONLY dry nitrogen to charge the
accumulator!
* NEVER use oxygen or compressed air to
charge the accumulator! explosion warning.eps Fig. 12-1.1
12.2 charging procedure

1. Before you begin, you will need a charging kit (Fig. 12-1.2). Do not attempt to charge the accumulators without
one. You can order the charge valve assembly from Hydac. Hydac Corporation.
2. You must use a high-pressure regulator with the nitrogen bottle. If it was not supplied with the bottle, order one-
before proceeding with this job.
3. Before beginning the charging procedure, stop the engine, remove the key, and put a “Do Not Operate” tag over
the key switch. Put the key in your pocket, so no one can start the engine.
4. Verify zero hydraulic pressure on the proper accumulator gauge before beginning. The accumulators should
dump when the engine is stopped, but you still must verify it. If pressure remains, dump the accumulators using
the manual bleed valve (Fig. 12-1.3 and Fig. 12-1.4) on the manifold.
5. If there are multiple accumulators, charge one accumulator at a time. Leave the valve protection caps (See Fig.
12-1.5) on the accumulators until you actually begin the procedure.

8. On the charge valve assembly, close the bleed valve (Fig. 12-1.7) and disconnect the hose from the charge valve
gas valve stem. This step ensures that the initial pressure reading is accurate, and it prevents the gas pressure
from escaping out of the hose.

9. Find the swivel nut (Fig. 12-1.8) on the charge valve assembly. Screw the swivel nut onto the accumulator gas
valve. Tighten to 10–15 in./lb.
10. After the swivel nut is attached, screw the T-handle (Fig. 12-1.6) clockwise, all the way in. This presses a pin into
the gas valve and opens it. Read the pressure on the charge valve assembly gauge before you attach the nitrogen
bottle to the charge valve assembly. Depending on the gauge reading, proceed as follows:
• If no adjustment is necessary, skip to step #18.
• If pressure is too high, skip to step #15.
• If pressure must be added, proceed to step #11

11. Be sure that the nitrogen bottle supply valve is firmly closed. Attach the high-pressure regulator to the nitrogen
bottle, then attach the hose to the high-pressure regulator. Finally, attach the other end of the hose to the valve
assembly gas valve stem as shown in Fig. 12-1.9. Do not open the nitrogen bottle supply valve yet.
12. Turn the regulated pressure adjustment handle on the high-pressure regulator counter clockwise to its minimum-
setting.
13. Crack open the nitrogen bottle supply valve (Fig. 12-1.10). You will get a reading on the high-pressure gauge side
of the regulator. If there is enough pressure in the nitrogen bottle to do the job, proceed to step #14.
14. Adjust the regulator handle clockwise, raising the regulated pressure. The accumulator will begin to fill. Continue
filling until the charge kit gauge reads the desired pressure. Close the nitrogen bottle supply valve.
15. If you overcharge the nitrogen pressure, proceed as follows:

• Close the nitrogen bottle supply valve.


• Slowly open the bleed valve on the charge kit. Close the bleed valve when the correct pressure is rea-
ched.

Note! Never let nitrogen out of the accumulator by pressing the gas valve pin with a foreign object. The high
pressure may rupture the valve seat!

16. Let the nitrogen sit in the accumulator for 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the gas temperature to stabilize.Recheck
the pressure on the charge kit gauge.
17. Add or release nitrogen until the pressure is correct. Be sure that the bleed valve is closed before adding pressure,
and that the nitrogen bottle supply valve is closed before releasing pressure.
18. When the correct pressure is reached, proceed as follows:

• Close the nitrogen bottle supply valve.


• Unscrew the T-handle on the charge kit until it is all the way out. This will close the accumulator gas valve.
• Open the bleed valve, which releases the pressure in the hose, charge valve assembly, and regulator.
• While holding the gas valve on the accumulator, unscrew the charge kit swivel nut.
• Remove the charge kit.
• If you are finished with both accumulators, remove the hose and regulator.

19. Make a bubbly mixture from soap and water. Spread the mixture around the accumulator gas valve to check for
gas leaks. Gas leaks will push the bubbles away from the area of the leak. If you find a leak, replace the accu-
mulator or have it repaired by qualified personnel. Never repair an accumulator yourself.
20. Replace the gas valve seal cap (tighten to 22 ft./lb), and hand-tighten the valve protection cap.
21. Repeat the procedure for any other accumulators.

13. INTRODUCTION TO LOAD SENSE HYDRAULIC CIRCUITS


Accumulator:. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .A component used to store hydraulic energy. Drillmec uses two types
of accumulators. One is a nitrogen gas charged accumulator, the other is a nitrogen gas charged accumulator, piston
type.

Constant: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .A theoretical factor that is regarded as invariant in specified circumstances. The


constant for calculating hydraulic HP is: 1714 (when psi and gpm are used). The constant for calculating kW is: 600
(when bar and lpm are used).

Delta Pressure
(Delta-P): . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The pressure differential between two given points in a hydraulic circuit.

Horsepower (HP): . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .A unit of power in the United States Customary System, equal to 0.7457 kilowatts
(kW). To calculate hydraulic horsepower consumption, use the following formula; HP= Pressure multiplied by
the Volume, divided by a Constant.

Orifice: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .A restriction installed in either a hydraulic or pneumatic passageway to create a


pressure drop. This does not always reduce flow directly, but it may cause enough pressure upstream so that some
of the flow would be diverted or reduced elsewhere.

Q-Maximum
(Q-max):. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The highest volumetric flow rate possible from the hydraulic pump. Adjusted with a
mechanical stop screw. Turn screw inward to decrease and outward to increase.

Q-Minimum
(Q-min): . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . The lowest volumetric flow rate possible from the hydraulic pump. Adjusted with a
mechanical stop screw. Turn screw inward to increase and outward to decrease.

Section Compensator: . . . . . . . . . . .A component in the directional control valves that self-adjusts for
supply pressure changes. Also described as a pilot operated
pressure compensating valve.

Load sense hydraulic circuits offer advantages over conventional fixed flow circuits. One advantage is improved effi-
ciency. With the conventional system, a fixed displacement hydraulic pump is used to run hydr. system. This hydraulic
pump must have the capability of displacing enough oil volume to run the largest cylinder on the hydr. system.
However, because the smaller cylinders on the hydr. system require less oil volume, an in-line orifice is used to divert
the excess oil to tank via the relief valve. When no hydr. system function is activated, this fixed volume of oil is routed
through the handvalve and back to the tank. All of the excess oil is converted to wasted horsepower and heat.
With the load sense hydraulic circuit, a variable displacement hydraulic pump is used. This hydraulic pump puts out
only the required volume of oil needed to run any particular function or combination of functions. This pump also de-
strokes to a minimum output when no functions are activated; thus conserving energy and fuel.

When activating a function by remote on a “black & white” system, the handvalve spool is fully activated and a signal
is sent to the hydraulic pump to send the required amount of oil to run that function. When activating a function on a
proportional system, electronics are used to vary the position of the handvalve spool, which in turn varies the speed
of the function. The proportional system allows the operator to move the pipe handler as slow and as fast as desired;
thus increasing controllability for smoother pipe handler movement, and reducing operator effort.

NOTE: The complete hydraulic system on a load sense hydraulic circuit must be kept as clean as possible due to
many of the components used in these circuits contain precision machined metering passages and spools that
could malfunction from contamination.

In this diagram, the cylinder will take exactly 2 minutes to extend with a pressure of 1000 psi at the cylinder and a
pressure of 1200 psi at the pump due to the orifice that caused a pressure drop and the relief valve that opened at
1200 psi venting 5 gpm to the tank. This 5 gpm at 1200 psi is creating heat and is wasting horsepower. that leaves only
5 gpm for the cylinder. the orifice did change the flow rate at the cylinder and the cylinder speed. When the cylinder
reaches the end of the stroke, the pressure in the cylinder will equal 1200 psi and all 10 gpm will be vented to tank
via the relief valve.

17.2.2 QUICK CONNECTION ( CONNECTION WITH TORQUE VALUES )

Example Model: 75 Series Snap Tite


The hoses attach to the drilling rig by screwing the quick dis-connect couplers on to the proper couplers of the drilling
rig.
To connect, merely thread the nipple into the coupler. To disconnect just unthread, the valves are designed to shut off
automatically under normal conditions in both the coupler and nipple halves when the unit is being disconnected.

Fig. 17-2.3
Please take the following steps when installing the couplers:

1. Turn the power unit OFF.


2. Clean all couplers with a can of ether if available. A clean dry cloth will also work but will require extreme care.
Fittings must be spotless clean.
3. Install couplers by screwing them onto their respective counterparts. Try to avoid crossthreading and maintain a
straight line. Jerk the hose back and forth while turning coupler to aid installation effort. Push hard to get the big
coupler threads started.
4. Make sure fittings are tight. If they are properly cleaned they should run up tight with just a firm hand grip. However,
they should be double checked with a chain wrench.
5. Avoid over-tightening. ( see Fig. 17-2.4 )
6. If near salt water, spray with a light oil to prevent oxidation.
7. Avoid pulling too hard on hoses. Most hose failures are caused by pulling hoses off couplers.

WARNING
Turn the power unit off before installing couplers.

17.3 filling drilling rig pressure hoses

The Drilling Rig is shipped with the hoses filled with oil. However, if the unit has been sitting for a long period of time
or if a damaged hose has been replaced with a new one, then the hoses must be filled.
Hook up all the hoses to the power unit. Start the power unit and let it run for ten minutes before running the drilling
rig. The hoses will fill up by themselves in ten minutes even if the drilling rig is not in the drilling mode.

17.4 bleeding the hydraulic system

17.4.1 bleeding the service cylinders

If the opening and closing of the cylinders seems spongy or slow, it may be a result of air in the cylinders. Normally
there is no need to worry about bleeding the cylinders lines because the unit is shipped fully tested. However, should
the drilling rig sit for a long period of time, if a new attachment is being installed or if a damaged cylinders hose has
been replaced, then the system may require bleeding to remove unwanted air in the system. To bleed the cylinders
system, follow the following steps:

1. Shut Power Unit OFF.


2. Make sure the line quick dis-connects are coupled to the power unit.
3. Start the power unit
4. Loosen the lines at the hydraulic cylinder by backing the fittings off just a little.
5. Wait for oil to flow from the fittings. WATCH FOR AIR BUBBLES. When air bubbles have stopped then quickly
re-tighten the fittings.
6. Repeat the same procedure for “OPEN” side.
7. Operate the cylinder. If they are still a bit spongy then repeat bleeding steps once more.

17.4.2 bleeding main hydraulic CYLINDERS ( mast raising)

If using the cylinder seems spongy or slow, it may be a result of air in the cylinders. To bleed the cylinders of mast
raising, you must use the dedicated bleed on cylinders. To bleed the cylinder system, follow the following steps:

1. Loosen the screw of bleed ( without remove the screw )


2. WATCH FOR AIR BUBBLES. When air bubbles have stopped then quickly re-tighten the fittings.

WARNING
Bleeding operation of these cylinders, it must be made before every lowering of mast, to avoid jerk during
lowering

17.4.3 BLEEDING main HYDRAULIC CYLINDER - pull down

If using the cylinder seems spongy or slow, it may be a result of air in the cylinders. To bleeding the cylinders, you can
move in and out the cylinder up to limits, after some operations the air should be out from hydraulic cylinder. However,
you could use bleeding of cylinder with mast in lower position. (See Fig. 17-4.2)

The 3-port pressure compensator R5P in combination with a variable orifice (e.g. distributor as show in the hydraulic
scheme ) constitutes a 3-way flow control valve, that generates a pressure compensated variable flow.
3-way flow control valves have an additional tank port. The loss of energy due to the oil volume going to tank is based
only on the load pressure and not on the system relief valve setting.

• Max setting by R5P handknob: 250 bar


• External (remote) setting by pressure regulator on control panel: increase value from minimum, up to get the
steady speed rotation

22.3 SETTING OPERATION

To setting hydraulic circuit of rotary table:


1. Block rotary table with mechanical system, see Fig. A7
22-3.3
2. Unscrew the handknob pressure adjuster on R5p valve
(position 2 ) of hydraulic block OB.2122 (Fig. 22-2.1
and Fig. 22-2.2)
3. Bring up to maximum the pressure regulator R8 on
main control panel ( clockwise )
4. With control C28, try to rotate, it won’t rotate because
it’s inserted mechanical block. Reading on main control
panel pressure of gauge A7
5. Gradually increase setting of R5P valve by handknob, Fig. 22-3.1
up to, pressure gauge A7 indicates 250 bar
6. Block the setting of valve R5P, with jam nut of hand-
knob.

needed pressure. You block setting with jam nut
• The BREAK-OUT operation hasn’t adjustement of torque. In this operation the torque wrench gives the max
torque, that it derives from: tool joint diameter and friction from tool joint and jaw. Indication of torque, during
BREAK-OUT operation, it’s gave from diagram, Fig. 25-3.2. To read diagram with BREAK-OUT condition, you
can follow this procedure:
• Reading on right side, the diameter of tool joint.
• Drawing a horizontal line up to BREAK-OUT straight
• From last point, draw a vertical line up to torque value. This value is approximate


IMPORTANT
The torques, that you obtain from BREAK-OUT line, they are calculated with friction value of 0.7 ( between
tool joint and jaw)

25.3.5 SETTING OF SEQUENCE VALVE, FOR AUTOMATIC RETURN (OB.1906, POS 8)

When you leave the lever control of torque wrench, it comes back with automatic sequence, on beginning position,
this sequence happens by means the pilot pressure on inlet P1. ( 60-70 bar ).
Sequence of return is composed from these step:
• contemporary release of the lower and upper clamps
• rotation up to original piston.

To respect the above sequence, for return sequence, it’s need adjust the valve at 35 bar ( Pos. 8, block OB.1906).
For adjust, follow this procedure:

• Rotate the screw regulation up to limit ( counter-clockwise ), it was brought at minimum setting. After, rotate for
3/4 turn, on clockwise
• Connect a pressure gauge on outlet MP1. Begin automatic sequence of MAKE-UP or BREAK-OUT, by means
control C54. Leave the lever C54, to start return sequence. Verify that return sequence shall be respected and
the clamps begin to rotate with pressure of 35 bar.
• If necessary, adjust screw regulation of sequence valve.

27. PROCEDURE FOR RELEASING


OF TORQUE, IF DRILL STRING GETS
TORQUE UP AND STOP
The purpose of the following procedure is to guide all the
operators working safely. This procedure is applicable on
drilling rigs HH200/HH220/HH300.
It is strongly recommended to follow the below procedu-
re.

HAZARD
We remind to all operators, that not following the sug- SR6 Fig. 27-1.1
gested procedure could damaging the top-drive motors
and also compromising the crew safety

R11
WARNING
Every time that the string get stucked in the well, it is
strongly recommended to all drillers to keep full control
on top drive. To get this, put Top Drive on lower speed,
first ratio, by means of selector S5. C8

27.1 TOP DRIVE STALLED AT MAXIMUM


TORQUE

If the string gets stuck and the torque is reaching the maxi- Fig. 27-1.2
mum torque applicable on the pipe, try to work the torque
out from the string as follow:

1 – Put rotation joystick C8 on neutral position.

2 - Release the torque using regulator R11, Than rotating


it clockwise very slowly, the torque of Top Drive will lower A3
up to zero.
For assure that the torque is released completely, see re-
sidual pressure on gauge A3.

WARNING
Keep Top-Drive speed in first gear, by means of selector Fig. 27-1.3
S5 and never switch gears

WARNING
The switch brakes by means of selector S6, can not be H1
used as a torque release, so it can not be switched on/ S6
off for releasing residual torque.
When H1 lamp is lighted, it indicates that brake is
active

S5

Fig. 27-1.4
Service Manual
Hydraulic Training

Page 132 - Hydraulic Training

WARNING
Do not use Power Tongs or Torque Wrench (where installed) to release the residual torque.

OPTION

27.2 TOP DRIVE STALLED WITH LOWER RESIDUAL TORQUE

If the string gets stuck and the torque is lower than the maximum applicable on the pipe, try to work the string raising
and lowering the torque, in a range of 20% up and down, using SR6 control valve slowly, watching out gauge A3 and
letting enough time for pump reaction .
Keep the joystick C8 inserted. Do not try to release torque up to zero using SR6.
If it is required, apply procedure item 27.1

IMPORTANT
The control R11 “Pipe torque discharge” must be positioned fully CCW, when you are on normal drilling operations.
