*Comparable products are available in the USA from the Exxon Corporation.
Canrig Top Drives are designed to be used with ISO Industrial EP (Extreme Pressure)
Gear Oils. Oils meeting AGMA specifications and grades shown in the above chart could
be used in the Canrig Top Drive. See Lube and Maintenance for further information.
For approval of a specific oil, contact Canrig Engineering Department.
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.

These oil levels may vary with operating conditions. The oil level can be lowered during
high speed drilling to reduce heat creation.
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.
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.

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.

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.
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.
4-19

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
4-21
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.

4-23
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.
4-24
4-25
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:
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:
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.
4-26
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.
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:
4-28
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.
If facilities are available, give the reassembled machine a running test to check
bearings.
4-29
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 covered sufficiently in this text, the matter should be referred to Canrig
Drilling Technology Ltd.
4-30
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.

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.
4-32
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.
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.

A sign of impending solenoid failure may be a peculiar odor, followed by the discovery
of melted or cracked insulation.
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.

Monthly Inspection
1. Remove the LWCV and inspect the connections (including the quill pin) using magnetic
particle techniques according to API RP7G.
2. Visually inspect the following for hoisting integrity:
Bail (if applicable)
Block Interface
Upper links
Main housing
Rotary manifold outer sleeve
Upper link support
Elevator links
Elevators (if applicable)
3. Visually check the welds on the top drive frame, guard, mounts and supports for cracks
or damage.
4. Visually check the Top Drive unit for loose bolts.
5. Check the drive motor according to the manufacturers publication, which is in the
Electrical section of the Component Literature book.
6. Visually inspect the electrical cables on the Top Drive Unit.
NOTE:
4-38
Visually check the complete Torque Guide for any damage (i.e. bending or cracking).
Visually check the integrity of all of the Torque Guide turnbuckles, pins, spherical
bushings and flange connection bolts. (If applicable.)
Visually check all the welds on the Torque Guide System including the harpoon for
cracks. If suspicious cracks were found, a full Dry Magnetic Particle inspection must be
made to all the welds included but not limited to those shown in the Torque Guide
Inspection Maps.
Check for loose bolts and mountings for the blower, mast junction box, cable trays and
hydraulic tubes.
Visually check the service loop and service supports/mounts on the torque guide.
Visually check the Grass Hopper for any damage (i.e. bending and cracking). In
addition, check all the welds for cracks.
Other Inspection
Check the clearance in the main Top Drive bearings and re-shim if necessary according
to the schedule and instructions in this manual.
Check the gap between the top of the Brake Disk and the caliper. If the Disk is rubbing
against the top of the caliper, this maybe an indication that the Brake Hub had spun off.
4-39
Perform a thorough visual examination of the Top Drive, looking for any signs of
damage.
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.
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.
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.

Sudden drop in oil level may indicate worn components. Be sure to only use mineralbased oil (i.e. hydraulic oil) in the brake system.
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.
