Lubrication and Maintenance

Component Recommendations
Top Drive Gearcase Canrig Top Drives are designed to be used with ISO Industrial EP (Extreme Pressure) Gear Oils. EP oils are high quality, extreme pressure compounded type oils for use in all types of industrial gear sets except those with built-in variable speed type friction drive mechanisms. The use of EP ensures increased unit life under heavily loaded or shock loaded service conditions. The EP oils give superior rust protection to ferrous metal surfaces and are non-corrosive to steel, copper, brass, bronze and other common bearing materials. EP can be used in continuous service, with normal re-lubrication intervals, at temperatures up to 93C. Above 93C, the rate of sludging and additive depletion increases and more frequent oil changes may become necessary. Oil should be changed at planned intervals of 60 days or 1000 drilling hours or less. Oil should never be permitted to become visibly contaminated with mud or water, which will cause rapid bearing failure. If there is any doubt about the oil quality, it should be changed even though the change interval has not expired. Refer to Gearcase Capacity Chart for oil quantities.

Oil Level Below Gearcase Window

Check dipstick for level 13 mm 13 mm 13 mm 13 mm 13 mm * NOTE * NOTE 19 mm 19 mm 19 mm
* NOTE:
This optimum oil level is approximately to the bottom of the gearcase snout as viewed in the sight tube. The oil level should not be high enough to submerge the gears in the cluster assembly snout.
When operating a Canrig Top Drive unit in humid climates or when using corrosive drilling fluids (for example: high brine content) visually check the lubrication oil on a weekly basis for water contamination. Samples should also be taken for a visual examination. The gearcase can be drained by removing the drain plug in the bottom of the gearcase. Magnetic plugs are located on the bottom of the gearcase and in the Y-strainer to catch small metallic wear particles. An appreciable accumulation of such particles can be a clue to incipient bearing failure.

Revision 05.03

Check the breather (located on the bonnet) on a weekly basis to ensure that they are not plugged. Replace as required. Motor seal damage may occur if pressure is allowed to build in the gearcase. Top Drive Guides Light grease or grease mixed with oil can occasionally be applied to the Torque Guide rails to improve sliding performance. Top Drive Brakes The brake fluid reservoir should be visually checked on a daily basis. A sudden drop in oil level may indicate worn components. Be sure to use only mineral-based oil in the brake system (i.e. hydraulic oil). Also refer to the Top Drive Disc Brake inspection procedure in Subsection 4B of this Manual. Handler Rotate Gearbox Planetary Gearbox Canrig Part # M15-1002-010 Use Spartan EP GR68 gear oil or equivalent. Oil should be changed for the first time after 500 working hours. Subsequent changes should be done after every 2000 to 4000 hours or after 6 months. Check oil level every month.
CAUTION:
New gearbox must be filled with oil prior to use.
Rotary Torque Boost Planetary Gearbox Canrig Part # M15-1001-010 Use Spartan EP GR68 gear oil or equivalent. Oil should be changed for the first time after 500 working hours. Subsequent changes should be done after every 2000 to 4000 hours or after 6 months. Check oil level monthly.

Recommended Stacking Procedures for Long Term Storage

The following data and procedures are intended to assist in properly maintaining the TopDrive if it is to be stored or stacked for some period of time. Proper maintenance during storage will reduce re-start time and assure more trouble-free operation. Stacking Enough beams should be provided to give normal support to the Top Drive/Torque Guide and TDSU and be high enough to avoid having accumulated or run off water reach the equipment. A drained location is preferable so that water will not remain under the equipment and cause abnormal dampness. Cleaning Mud, adhering dirt, and other foreign matter of a type that will hold moisture should be removed. If cleaning is done with steam or with mineral spirits, care should be taken to avoid washing lubricating oil or grease from unpainted surfaces unless it is to be replaced or a preservative compound applied. If, in cleaning, the lubricant is removed from close fitting elements, they should be rotated after new lubricant or a preservative has been applied so that it will work into the fits. Apply touch-up paint to all areas where paint has been removed. Loose paint and rust should be wire brushed away, the surface cleaned and the paint (primer) applied to a dry surface. Sealing Openings In general all openings that allow moisture to enter an area and be trapped should be sealed. Adhesive waterproof tape is convenient to use and effective. (Use Kendall No. 231 or equivalent. Do not use duct tape; it will only seal for a short length of time). It should be applied over a cleaned surface. Small openings can be covered by tape alone, or by tape and a plastic sheet, unsupported. Large openings may require support such as plywood cut to opening size, covered by plastic and/or tape.
Revision 05.03
4-17

Rust Prevention The most troublesome problem encountered during storage is rust and corrosion. Humid conditions associated with a top-drive system sitting idle can create considerable maintenance problems. Space heaters are provided in the traction motor. Space heaters should be on at all times, if practical. They offer the best method of stopping rust in electrical equipment and metal parts that cannot be coated. A film of lubricant can best protect gearing and other rotating components. The film can be maintained by manually coating the parts and by periodic operation. All gears and drives ride on roller or ball bearings that need regular greasing to drive out moisture and keep the rollers and races grease coated. Condensation in the gearboxes will need to be drained periodically. Finally, operation (or rotating) of the equipment for a short time helps to distribute oil and grease and re-coat all gearing for improved rust protection. All the above are covered in further detail. These measures are neither expensive nor time consuming and offer the best method of preventing problems during and after a re-start. Please contact Canrig Drilling Technology Ltd. if you have any questions or need further information.
WARNING: Cleaning solvents may be toxic and/or flammable. They can cause serious or fatal injury if used without proper precautions. For safety: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Do not inhale solvent fumes. Use solvents only in adequately ventilated areas. Avoid contact of solvent with skin. Do not expose solvent to flame or sparks. Observe caution statements issued by the manufacturer of the solvent.

Revision 05.03
Extended Storage Top Drive Unit

If the Top Drive unit is to be stored (stacked) for any extended length of time before use, precautions should be taken using the following guidelines. General 1. Indoor storage is preferred whenever possible. If outside storage is necessary, ensure the Top Drive is properly supported (preferably on its torque guide), and is well away from adverse conditions, e.g. salt water spray, sand, shot blast operations, etc. 2. An all around visual inspection should be given to the exterior of the top drive. All areas where the paint has worn off or where there are signs of rust forming should be cleaned and painted or have a rust inhibitor applied. Recoat with rust inhibiting oil when necessary. Water-resistant grease should be applied to all grease nipples. Fill grease nipple openings.
Bearings, Housing, & Gearcase 1. For long term storage, use oil with strong adhesion properties (Esso Sebis K 68 or equivalent). 2. Fill to inch below the top of the gearcase sight glass with the proper oil, and run for 10 to 15 min before laying down the Top Drive. 3. If stored outside, rotate every month; if inside every three months.
Torque Boost & Handler Rotate Gear Boxes 1. After the top drive is rigged down, completely fill (through their breather ports) both gearboxes with gear oil containing a rust inhibitor additive.
Link Support 1. Bleed the pressure off while the top drive is still standing so the link support will settle to its lowest possible point. 2. Coat the upper section of the outer sleeve with rust inhibitor.
Link Tilt Cylinders 1. Fully retract the link tilt cylinders. 2. Spray pins and bushings with rust inhibitor.
Revision 05.03 4-19

Handler Lock 1. Preferably store the top drive with the handler in the unlocked position. Pins 1. Coat all exposed areas of pins with rust inhibitor. Junction Boxes 1. Ensure that the door and strain reliefs are secured tightly. 2. Seal any other openings to provide a watertight enclosure. 3. Add moisture-absorbing pads inside each junction box.
Local Blower 1. Cover blower intake and outlet (where it mates to the drilling motor) as well as all drain holes with plastic and a wide adhesive waterproof tape. Quill 1. For extended storage it is recommended that the washpipe packing assembly be removed, cleaned, liberally coated with grease and reassembled to the Top Drive. 2. The tool joint should be cleaned, re-doped, and thread protector installed.
4-20
Revision 05.03

Top Drive Drilling Motor Indoor storage of the drilling motor is preferred. A dry ambient temperature of 60F is ideal if possible. In a high humidity environment an ambient of 70F is recommended. Every attempt should be made to avoid widely varying temperatures and high humidity. If stored outdoors, a protective cover acting as an umbrella should be used to prevent entrance of rain, dust, etc. The drilling motor is equipped with an AC space heater (120VAC, 210W). These heaters should be energized to keep the internal machine temperature above ambient temperature, preventing condensation and sweating. All exposed machined steel parts and surfaces should be examined for rust. Rust should be removed using fine abrasive paper. Methanol should be used to remove all residues. Extreme care should be taken not to damage critical machined surfaces such as the tapered shaft surface while removing rust. The surfaces should be coated with a rust inhibitor. Brushes should be removed from their holders and clamped under the spring clips to prevent corrosion of the commutator surface as a result of moisture absorption by the carbon. Do not completely seal the motor, but cover major vent areas including the blower inlet opening with waterproof tape. Leave enough opening so the machine can breathe i.e., moist air is not trapped. The intention is to prevent entrance of water, dust, small animals, but not to seal airtight. We do not recommend use of silica gel or dehydrating agents. Since the lubricant drains from the top half of bearings during storage, this area is subject to corrosion. The shaft should be rotated periodically to redistribute a protective film. If stored inside, rotate every three months. If outside, every month. Before placing the machine back into service after prolonged storage (1 year or more), bearings should be inspected and repacked with new grease meeting the recommended GE lubrication specification. The machine should be meggered when placed into storage and periodically while in storage (3-month intervals). Keep a record of the megger readings as a rapid decrease in insulation resistance indicates the machine condition is deteriorating and the storage conditions inadequate.
Revision 05.03
4-21
Extended Storage Torque Guide

If the Torque Guide is to be stored (stacked) for any extended length of time before use, precautions should be taken using the following guidelines. General 1. The Torque Guide should be washed and racked in a level position, properly supported with timbers high enough to avoid having accumulated or run off water reach the cylinders and cables. Ensure that it is protected from adverse conditions, e.g. salt water spray, sand, shot blast operations, etc. 2. Visually inspect all around the exterior of the torque guide. Apply touch up paint to all areas where the paint has worn off. Any places that show signs of rust forming should be cleaned, painted or have a rust inhibitor applied. Recoat with rust inhibiting oil when necessary.
Pins 1. Coat all pins with rust inhibitor. Tensioning Cables 1. Unpin the tensioning cables from the cylinders and spray the thimbles with rust inhibitor. 2. Ensure that the cables are not kinked, pinched or under tension in any way.
Tensioning Cylinders 1. Retract the tensioning cylinders fully. Coat cylinder rod eye with rust inhibitor. Harpoon 1. Coat the latching mechanism with rust inhibitor. Junction Boxes 1. Ensure that all doors and strain reliefs are secured tightly, and holes left from the grasshopper leads (444 cables) are sealed. 2. Add moisture-absorbing pads inside each junction box.
4-22
Revision 05.03

Utility Lines 1. Cables should be free and clear of pinch points and kinks. All plugs should be tightly assembled and capped. 2. Any damaged or worn areas of the electric service loop should be repaired or covered to prevent water from entering through the outer skin.
Remote Blower 1. Cover both the intake and discharge ducts, as well as all drain holes. Crown Hanger 1. Coat all pins, bolts, and exposed metal areas with rust inhibitor. Rails 1. Coat with grease or rust inhibitor.
Revision 05.03

Extended Storage Top Drive Support Unit (TDSU)

If the TDSU is to be stored (stacked) for any extended length of time before use, precautions should be taken using the following guidelines. Building 1. Wash and store the building in a level position on timbers high enough to avoid having accumulated or run off water reach the floor of the skid and potentially enter the SCR room and/or parts storage area. Apply touch-up paint as required. The building should be protected from adverse conditions, e.g. salt water spray, sand, shot blast operations, etc. Ensure that all hydraulic and air quick-couplers, electrical plugs and receptacles are capped and securely covered. SCR/CIP Panels 1. Open all contactors. 2. Add moisture-absorbing pads inside the panels.
Air Conditioners 1. Cover the intake side to prevent dust and debris from clogging the fins. Grasshopper 1. Wrap all lugged leads. Ensure that all plugs capped tightly. Hydraulic System 1. Remove the breather from the HPU tank and replace it with a 1.5 in NPT plug. 2. Remove the drain plug from the catch tray to prevent water buildup.

Revision 05.03
Extended Storage Auxiliary Equipment

If auxiliary equipment is to be stored for any extended length of time before use, precautions should be taken using the following guidelines: 1. Before laying down the Top Drive, break off the lower well control valve and drill pipe kit if installed. 2. Thoroughly clean and re-grease the lower well control valve actuator and all manual control valves. Cycle the valves a few times to work the grease into them. 3. Thoroughly clean all tool joints. Re-dope and install thread protectors. 4. Remove the tool joint clamps, grease the bolts, and reassemble them. 5. Relocate the Top Drive control panel to the SCR room for safe storage. Clean-out any foreign debris inside the panel and put bags of desiccant inside the panel to help absorb moisture. 6. All spare parts subject to corrosion and/or damage should be wrapped for protection. Use a corrosion inhibitor paper for rust sensitive parts. 7. Thoroughly clean and apply touch-up paint as required to wireline sheave assembly, floor stabilizer, and all other components. When possible store inside the TDSU building.
Revision 05.03
4-25
Caterpillar Generator Sets

If the engine/generator set is to be stored for any extended length of time before use, precautions should be taken using the following guidelines: Diesel Engine 1. Clean the outside of the engine and cover with good quality paint. 2. Remove any dirt from the air cleaner; check all seals and gaskets. 3. Put lubricant on all joints shown in the lubrication chart of the Caterpillar Engine Operations and Maintenance Guide. 4. If the cooling system is protected with clean, ethylene glycol antifreeze, make sure that it has a 50/50 mixture of ethylene glycol antifreeze and water. Be sure to completely fill the radiator up to the radiator cap with coolant mixture. Do not leave an air space. If the stored engine will never be subjected to below-freezing temperatures, completely drain the fresh water system; remove the drain plugs from the engine block, oil cooler, heat exchanger body and radiator, if so equipped. If freezing temperatures are possible, follow procedures given in item 4 above. 5. Oil filter elements do not need to be changed. If the lube oil has been used 50 hours or less, leave it in the sump and add VCI-10 at the rate of 3 to 4% by volume. If the lube oil has been used more than 50 hours, change it and add VCI-10 oil at the rate of 3 to 4%. NOTE: If the engine crankcase is full, drain enough lubricant to add the mixture.
6. Remove the air filter elements. Turn the engine at cranking speed with throttle control in fuel OFF position, and use a sprayer to add a mixture of 50% VCI-10 oil and 50% engine oil into the air intake or turbocharger inlet. Re-install the air filter elements. Completely enclose the elements with dark plastic bags and seal them with tape. Replace the air filter covers. Put tape over all openings to seal VCL vapors in the engine. NOTE: THIS IS CRITICAL TO PREVENT LOSS OF THE PROTECTIVE VAPORS.
7. Use a sprayer to put a mixture of 50% VCI-10 oil and 50% engine oil into the exhaust openings. Minimum application rate is 5.5 ml per liter (3 oz. Per 1000 cubic inches) of engine displacement. Seal exhaust pipe, including any drain holes in the muffler. 8. Remove the fuel from the secondary fuel filter housing or empty and re-install the fuel filter element to remove any dirt and water. Drain the fuel injection pump (sleeve
4-26 Revision 05.03

metering only). Clean the primary fuel filter; fill with calibration oil or kerosene and operate the primary pump. This will get clean oil to the secondary fuel filter and any water or dirt from the inside of the fuel tank. Use a spray of 30 ml (1 oz.) of VCI-10 oil per each 30 L (7.50 gal) of tank capacity to prevent rust in the fuel tank. Add 15 ml (per liter of fuel) of commercial biocide (biobor JF) to the fuel. Seal all openings to the tank to prevent evaporation of the fuel and preservative. 9. Remove the fuel nozzles and put 30 ml (1 oz.) of 50% VCI-10 oil and 50% engine oil in each cylinder. Install fuel nozzles or spark plugs and tighten all fittings to the correct torque. Use a bar (or turning tool) to run the engine over slowly to put the oil on the cylinder walls. 10. Spray a thin amount of 50% VCI-10 oil and 50% engine oil on the flywheel, ring gear teeth and starter pinion. Install the covers to keep in the VCI-10 vapors. 11. Put a heavy amount of multipurpose grease on all outside parts that move, such as rod threads, ball joints, linkage, etc. Note: Install all covers and make sure that tape has been installed over all openings, air intake, exhaust openings, flywheel housing, crankcase breathers, dipstick tubes, etc. Make sure all covers are air tight and weatherproof.
12. Under most conditions, it is best to remove the batteries and use them in another application, or put them in storage where they can be checked and electrically charged again when needed. If the batteries are not removed, wash the tops of the batteries until they are clean. Disconnect the battery terminals. Secure the cover over the batteries. 13. Loosen all fan, alternator belts, etc. 14. Attach a tag to the engine with a notation of the date that the unit was preserved. If the engine shows signs of corrosion at the check intervals repeat the protection procedure. It is not necessary to remove the preservative oil mixture before operating the engine. If a compartment under protection of VDL vapors is opened put more VCL mixture in to make up for the vapor loss.
Generators 1. When a generator is in storage, moisture condenses in the windings. To minimize condensation, when possible, store the generator in a dry storage area. Seal all openings with tape. 2. If a brush-type generator (SRCR) is to be in storage for a long time, lift the brushes off the slip ring to prevent damage to the slip ring by chemical action. Attach a tag to the generator stating that the brushes have been lifted. Note:
Revision 05.03
Before start-up of a generator use a megohmeter to check insulation resistance for moisture and/or foreign material.
4-27

To remove moisture caused by high humidity or dampness, use one of the following methods to dry the generator. Put the generator in an oven at a temperature of not more than 185F (85C) for four hours. Note: If an oven is used for drying, use a forced air-type rather than a radianttype. Radiant ovens can cause localized overheating.
Space heaters of the type used in the Top Drive drilling motor can be installed in the generator. These heaters heat the windings to remove moisture and should be connected at all times in high humidity conditions. Use a canvas enclosure around the generator and heating lamps to increase the ambient temperature. Make an opening in the top of the canvas to release the moisture. Send a low voltage current through the windings to increase the temperature of the windings to 85F. Note: If there is a possibility that insulation resistance has lowered to a dangerous level, contact Canrig or your nearest Caterpillar dealer.

Top Drive Re-Commissioning Procedure

Prior to putting a preserved-stacked Top Drive System back into service, precautions should be taken using the following guidelines: These do not preclude the need to follow the maintenance practices as outlined elsewhere in this manual. Top Drive 1. Drain stacking oil from gearbox and fill to normal operating level with Canrig specified gear oil. Run Top Drive for 1015 min, drain and refill to normal operating level. 2. Drain and fill the torque boost and handler rotate gear boxes to appropriate level with Canrig specified gear oil. 3. Uncover intake and drain holes on local or remote blower. Test run in the down position to blow out any dust and debris before commencing with drilling activities. 4. Check all terminal blocks in junction boxes for tightness.
Drilling Motor Before placing a stored motor in use: 1. Blow dust and dirt accumulation out of windings with clean, dry air. 2. (For DC motor applications only) Re-set the brushes. Visually inspect for spring corrosion, sticking brushes in brush holders, and general defects. 3. Check winding insulation continuity to ground with a 500 volt megger. If the megger reading is less than 2 megohms, the windings should be baked or dried until the moisture content is sufficiently reduced to raise the megger reading to 2 megohms. 4. An electrical source of heat is best for drying as it can be easily regulated and is clean. Proceed as follows: Remove the armature from the frame and remove bearings from the armature shaft. Heat the frame and armature until dried sufficiently to obtain the 2 megohm reading. Pack bearings with new grease. Refer to LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS for the proper type and amount of grease. Reassemble the motor. If facilities are available, give the reassembled machine a running test to check bearings.
Revision 05.03

Recommended Storage Instructions for Top Drive Drilling Motors

WARNING: Cleaning solvents may be toxic and/or flammable. They can cause serious or fatal injury if used without proper precautions. For safety: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Do not inhale solvent fumes. Use solvents only in adequately ventilated areas. Avoid contact of solvent with skin. Do not expose solvent to flame or sparks. Observe caution statements issued by the manufacturer of the solvent.
When placing Canrig Top Drive Drilling Motors into storage, the following preparations should be undertaken to prevent damage to the equipment as a result of storage: 1. Machines should be placed on a pallet and stored indoors if possible. A clean, dry ambient temperature of 60F is preferred. In a high humidity environment, an ambient temperature of 70F is recommended. Every attempt should be made to avoid widely varying temperatures and high humidity. A protective cover acting as an umbrella should be used to prevent entrance of rain, dust, etc. 2. The drilling motors are equipped with AC space heaters (120VAC, 210W). These heaters should be energized to keep the internal machine temperature above ambient, preventing condensation and sweating. 3. All exposed machined steel parts and surfaces should be slushed. These areas are slushed prior to shipment from the factory, but should be examined for rust. Rust should be removed using fine abrasive paper, after the old slushing compound has been removed with mineral spirits. Methanol should be used to remove all residues. 4. Extreme care should be exercised not to damage critical machined surfaces such as the tapered shaft surface while removing rust. The surfaces should be reslushed with slush compound Kendell Grade 5, or the equivalent. 5. Brushes should be removed from their holders and clamped under the spring clips to prevent corrosion of the commutator surface as a result of moisture absorption caused by the carbon. 6. Do not completely seal the motor, but cover major vent areas with a waterproof shipping tape. Leave enough opening so that the machine can breathe i.e., moist air is not trapped. The intention is to prevent entrance of water, rust, small animals, but not to seal airtight. We do not recommend use of silica gel or dehydrating agents. 7. Since the lubricant drains from the top half of bearings during storage, this area is subject to corrosion. The shaft should be rotated periodically to redistribute a protective film. If stored inside, rotate every three months; if outside, every month. Before placing the machine back into service after prolonged storage (1 year or more) bearings should be inspected and repacked with new grease meeting the recommended GE lubrication specification. 8. The machine should be meggered when placed into storage and periodically while in storage (3 month intervals). Keep a record of the megger readings as a rapid decrease in insulation resistance indicates the machine condition is deteriorating and the storage conditions are inadequate. Before placing a stored motor back into storage, refer to the applicable instructions: REMOVING TOP DRIVE DRILLING MOTORS FROM STORAGE.
Revision 05.03 4-31
Removing Top Drive Drilling Motors from Storage

It is often customary for users of Top Drive Systems to retain spare motors, which can be used for replacements. The spares might be new, rebuilt or used. Even though new or recently rebuilt, it is possible that the machine has been stored for an extended period of time and should be checked before being placed into service. Storing location and atmospheric conditions (temperature and humidity) can cause the windings to become contaminated with dirt and/or moisture. Storage conditions can help in avoiding dirt and moisture accumulation. Where possible, machines should be stored in a clean location where the temperature is kept above 60F. In a generally high humidity climate, an even higher minimum temperature (70F) will help keep windings dry. An accumulation of moisture or dirt causes electrical breakdown of the windings. Before placing a stored motor into service: 1. Blow dust and dirt accumulation out of windings with clean, dry air. 2. Visually inspect for spring corrosion, sticking brushes in brush holders, and general defects. 3. Check winding insulation continuity to ground with a 500 volt megger. If the megger reading is less than 2 megaohms, the windings should be baked or dried until the moisture content is sufficiently reduced to raise the megger reading to 2 megaohms. 4. An electric source of heat is best for drying as it can be easily regulated and is clean. Proceed as follows: A. Remove the armature from the frame and remove bearings from the armature shaft. B. Heat the frame and armature until dried sufficiently to obtain the 2 megaohm reading. C. Pack bearings with new grease. Refer to the Lubrication and Maintenance Recommendations in this Section for the proper type and amount of grease. D. Reassemble the motor or generator. E. If facilities are available, give the reassembled machine a running test to check bearings.
These instructions do not purport to cover all details or variations in equipment nor to provide for every possible contingency to be met in connection with installation, operation or maintenance. Should further information be desired or should particular problems arise which are not sufficiently for the purchasers purposes, the matter should be referred to Canrig.

Capscrew Torque Values

All capscrews and bolts used on a Canrig Top Drive meet or exceed the SAE Gr.8 specifications. These must be torqued to the values shown on the assembly drawings or to the value charted below. In addition, the following guidelines should be followed when reinstalling capscrews or bolts:
All capscrews or fasteners permanently installed must be coated with Loctite 242 Threadlocker or the equivalent after insuring that the capscrew threads and mating thread are free of all dirt, oil and grease. This is a medium strength threadlocker that prevents rusting of all threads and prevents loosening due to vibration. This threadlocker can be sheared using normal hand tools.
All capscrews or fasteners that require periodic loosening to facilitate adjustment of components (tool joint clams, link tilt clamps, guide rails, etc.) should be coated with anti-seize thread compound 767 or the equivalent. When using capscrews with locknuts, use only Grade C Stover locknuts or equivalent. These can be identified visually by eight raised dots. These are re-usable, but new nuts are recommended after repeated removal and installation.

Testing a Solenoid Coil

Failure The main reason for failure of a solenoid is excessive heat. A sign of impending solenoid failure may be a peculiar odor, followed by the discovery of melted or cracked insulation. A chattering noise could also signal solenoid failure.
Testing Procedure 1. Disconnect the power source. 2. Test the solenoid coil by attaching an ohmmeter (set to a low resistance range) across the coil terminals. A relatively low reading should be observed on the meter if the coil is good. Solenoid Manufacturer Vickers Rexroth Operating Voltage 24 VDC 120 VAC 24 VDC Approximate Resistance 19 ohms 32 ohms 35 ohms
It should not read zero ohms as this is an indication that the coil windings are shorted to each other, probably the result of melted insulation. If the ohmmeter reads infinity, it means that the coil is open and defective.

Inspection Following Periods of Rough Drilling or Jarring

After periods of rough drilling, especially on surface hole, various Top Drive components can loosen due to vibration. The following inspection procedure is recommended after periods of rough drilling: Perform a thorough visual examination of the Top Drive, looking for any signs of damage. Visually inspect the mud inlet piping. Check all wire-locked bolts for damaged or broken wires. If broken wires are detected, check the affected bolts for tightness and rewire. Refer to the Capscrew Torque Values information in Subsection 4A of this Manual. Replace damaged wires. Check all external bolts that are not wired for tightness. Check all guards, vents, and covers for tightness. Ensure that all safety cables are properly and securely attached. Visually check the welds on the Top Drive Guard and Frame, Blower Frame and Torque Guide System. Visually examine inside the electrical junction boxes for loose components. Inspect the motor armature to ensure it has not dropped: If the Brake Disk is approximately in the center of the Caliper, then this maybe an indication that the armature did not drop. If the Brake Disk is rubbing on the bottom of the caliper, this maybe an indication that the armature did drop.

Main Bearing End Play

Inspection Procedure
1. Remove the washpipe. 2. Place the base of the dial indicator on top of the upper seal carrier (or side of the bonnet) and the plunger on the top of the upper seal ring. 3. Load the end of the quill against the top and bottom of its free travel. (NOTE: Quill travel = 8 inches) 4. Read the end play on the dial. (Desired end play = 0.002/0.004 inches) 5. To adjust this end play, add or remove shims between the upper bearing seat and the main housing. 6. If the gear case oil becomes contaminated, the gear case should be flushed and the oil changed. The end play should be checked before resuming drilling activities. This may reveal indications of premature bearing wear.

Washpipe Inspection Instructions

Packing Assembly
Instructions: 1. Attach magnetic indicator base or improvised holding fixture to quill or packing box. 2. Rotate sleeve 360 and record total indicator reading (TIR) indicator positions A, B, C. Recommended Tolerances: A. Maximum allowable misalignment at gooseneck support bore = 0.008 TIR B. Maximum allowable misalignment at gooseneck pilot = 0.010 TIR C. Maximum allowable washpipe misalignment after complete assembly = 0.010 TIR Inspection may indicate misalignment exceeding recommended limits. Washpipe packing assemblies are designed to accommodate misalignments of quill to gooseneck and will operate with some excessive misalignment. However, to achieve maximum packing life, the alignment at the washpipe should be maintained within recommended limits.

Top Drive Disc Brake Inspection

Check Brake Fluid Brake fluid reservoir should be visually checked on a daily basis. Sudden drop in oil level may indicate worn components. Be sure to only use mineralbased oil (i.e. hydraulic oil) in the brake system.
Check Brake Calipers Brake calipers should be checked weekly. A function test should be done at this time. There should be a minimum gap of 0.06 between the brake pads and the disc. In addition to premature wear, dragging brake pads can also cause excessive heat build-up in the brake compartment. If the brake pads are dragging, the system may require bleeding to eliminate any trapped air. See Brake Bleeding Procedure.
Manual Brake Bleeding 1. The brake actuator should be bled first, and then the brake calipers. 2. Clean area around reservoir covers (2 on GE 752 and GE B20 motors, 1 on 761 motors). 3. Remove covers. 4. Fill reservoirs to indicated FULL level. Use only mineral base oil (hydraulic oil) in the brake reservoirs. Do not use brake fluid. Replace reservoir cover(s) but leave loose. 5. Put the Top Drive selector switch in the AUX position and start the HPU. 6. Cycle the brakes several times by operating the Brake switch at the Top Drive Console. 7.
