Description
The Varco SSW-40 spinning wrench is a pneumatically-powered tool capable of spinning drill pipe and collars from 31/2 to 91/2 (89 - 241 mm) OD. .
Theory of operation
A typical spinning procedure is as follows: First, position the wrench vertically with the vertical positioning control to a point about one foot above the tool joint, or just above the pipe upset. The spinning wrench is now swung onto the pipe and the clamp control pushed to clamp the drive rollers against the pipe. Next, the throttle control is pushed to spin in or pulled to spin out.

Attach a 1/2 or 5/8 cable to the mast that will allow a free, easy swing around the wellbore. The higher the fixed line, the easier it will be to move the wrench onto the pipe. Attach the cable at a cross member about 2,5 feet from the drill pipe centerline (as shown in fig. 2.1) and position the wrench across from the driller where the chainman would normally stand. With the lift cylinder at the midpoint of its stroke, suspend the SSW-40 approximately 5 feet above the floor. This will allow 12 of vertical travel up or down. Attach TWO back-up cables to the shackles provided at the rear of the wrench to restrict rotational movement to 12 in either direction. Do not cross cables.
WARNING: If only one back-up line is attached, the wrench can swing into the operator causing injury.
Run a 11/5 air supply line up to the rig floor in a protected area easily accessable for maintenance. Install a 11/5 shutt-off valve to the air supply line (as shown) to allow maintenance of the tool. Attach the filter end of the filter/regulator/ lubricator assembly to shutt-off valve. Connect the 25 foot air hose assembly provided, to the lubricator end of the filter/regulator /lubricator assembly. Blow out air line to remove any trapped moisture and debris. Pour 1/2 pint of SAE 10 oil into 25 foot hose, then connect to spinning wrench swivel fitting. Level tool with the rig floor using the hanger adjustment screw provided.

Operation
Normal usage
The spinning wrench is designed to:
Spin in and spin out various types of tubing and casing CAUTION: Back up lines must be attached to limit rotational movement to 1 foot (0.3m) in each direction.
Adjust the SSW-40 to the appropriate pipe size by pulling the adjustment screw and turning it to engage the socket. Turn the adjustment handle counterclockwise to open the bodies or clockwise to close the distance between the bodies. Proper clearance is 1/2 between the front rollers and the pipe or collar being used. NOTE: Check to be sure that back-up lines are properly attached (see Section 2)
Swing the SSW-40 onto the pipe about 12 above the tool joint. Do not run the tool on the pipe upset or tool joint. To clamp onto the pipe: push the clamp control. To spin pipe, position lockout to spin in or spin out as required. The lockout prevents spinning pipe in the wrong direction. Push the throttle control to spin in or pull to spin out. To unclamp from pipe, pull the clamp control and swing wrench away. To position the SSW-40 vertically, push the vertical positioning control to move the tool up or pull to move down.

5: Operation
50000835-MAN-001 A 21 of 64
Tips on operation
1. Pin should be stabbed into the box as vertical as possible. Spinning wrench can not spin an improperly aligned connection 2. Spin pin into box until pin and box are just shouldered together; at this point stop and torque joint with the torque wrench. Do not use the spinning wrench to torque joints. 3. Keep clamping arms adjusted. Slipping rollers will cause rollers to wear. If drive rollers start to slip on the pipe, check the pressure roller adjustment and adjust equally on both sides. See adjustment procedure. 4. Replace worn Drive rollers. If the drive rollers start to slip and the roller arms have been adjusted to maximum, this may indicate drive rollers require replacement.
Use thread protectors when available. When threads and shoulders are unprotected, do not permit the tool joints to strike steel surfaces such as walks, stairs, steel floors, or machinery. Use wood surfaces where the tool joint may hit.
Pin and box threads and shoulders should be thoroughly cleaned. Use solvent and wipe dry with a clean rag. Inspect carefully for any burrs or nicks on the shoulders or threads. Damaged connections should never be run in the hole. After cleaning, apply tool joint thread compound to threads and shoulders with a round, stiff bristle brush. Use thread compounds containing 40% to 50% by weight of finely powdered metallic zinc. CAUTION: Never, under any circumstances, use casing and tubing lubricant. Thread compound must be applied to the tool joint every time it is made up.
Do not allow the ends of the pin to strike the box shoulders. the shoulder must not be nicked or other wise damaged. Before spinning the pipe, make sure connections are in alignment. Do not rotate the pipe too fast, especially when wobbling or binding occurs. Extra care is necessary when a power operated spinner is used.
Torque measuring equipment must be used. When using tongs, it is important that line pull be measured when the line is at right angles or 90 to the tong handle. When applying line pull, do not jerk the tongs. Over-torque can be just as damaging as under-torque. Use both tongs (when tongs are used) when making up tool joints. Do not make up pipe using spinners only. Torquing devices must be used.

5: Operation
Initial make up is most critical and extra care is essential for long trouble-free service. Follow these steps:
Inspect threads and shoulder for any damage. Clean and lubricate as indicated above. Walk in or slowly rotate joints together. Makeup to recommended torque. Breakout and slowly spin out.
When breaking out the joint, use both tongs (when using tongs). Always follow these steps:
Do not let the end of the pipe strike the box shoulder. Come out of the hole on a different break each trip so that every connection can be periodically broken and its condition and torque checked. When standing the pipe back, be sure the set back area is clean where the pin will rest.

Storage, transport & decommissioning.
Storage
Main unit should be palletized for indoor storage. A cargo container would be appropriate for indoor/ outdoor storage. Every attempt should be made to avoid wide variations in temperature and high humidity. The preferred environment would be clean and dry at 60F (16 C) ambient. If high humidity is unavoidable, 70 F (21 C) is recommended. All exposed, not painted metal surfaces, are coated with a rust preventative at the factory prior to shipment. However, these surfaces should be checked periodically (when fulfilling the above conditions once per 3 months is recommended) to be sure that no corrosion is taking place. All openings should be covered to prevent water or dust from entering. We do not recommend the use of silica or a dehydrating agent. When the Spinning wrench is not being used for a longer period (like storage) the following steps should be carried out:
Clean Spinning wrench Grease Spinning wrench as described. Grease all blank parts. Use an extreme pressure, multi-purpose, lithium based grease of No. 1 or No. 2 consistency. Clean and cap pneumatic Quick Disconnect Couplings. Recommended rust preventative (slushing compound) for bare metal surfaces is Valvoline Tectyl or equivalent. Pour a pint (1/2 l) of SAE 10 lube oil in hose and run through air motor while actuating air cylinder, to ensure coating internal components with oil. Drain gear case and replace with 2 quarts (1.9 l) of SAE30 oil. Heavy application of grease at all grease nipples
Returning to service
Check that the lubricator is clean and filled with SAE10 oil. Check filter is clean and water has been drained Check lubricator is located between the regulator and the wrench Drain and refill gear case with 2 quarts (1,9 l) SAE 90 transmission oil. Blow air line out before connecting to wrench
Transport
The best way of transporting the Spinning wrench is in its original crate. Use oiled paper and seal the box with plastic to prevent leaking when stored outside. Secure the top safely.
Scrapping
The tool contains grease, steel, rubbers, plastic, stainless steel or mild steel and several assembled components from undefined consistency or mixtures. The tool can be contaminated with mud. When the tool is taken out of service it is recommended to disassemble the tool in a place where drainage for waste fluids is possible

ATEX information
Over a limited period the temperature of the SSW 40 was measured while it was running on the test bench, under normal operation conditions. 4 points where measured (degrees Celcius)
The bellow The lift cylinder The spinners while spinning in The spinners while spinning out
45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0
36 11 16 21 26 31 1 6
Conclusions: The maximum reached temperature is 42C / 108C. Most of the lines have reached the point that they are not climbing any longer. The spin in temperature is still increasing. However, this temperature is small compared to the temperature of the bellow, which line has not increased over the 4 last measurements. It is not expected the Spin-in temperature will exceed the Bellow temperature.
