WARNING
Very High Exhaust Temperatures
Can cause serious personal injury and damage to property.
u Do not touch the particle filter.
u Park the machine in the open air during regeneration.
u Never cover the particle filter.
u Never let flammable materials come in contact with the particle filter.

Regeneration cleanses the particle filter of the exhaust system. In normal conditions, re-
generation starts automatically and does not affect the performance of the machine.

58 No: 2969809547.1.2969824267 en-US

FlexiROC T30 R 4 Operation

There are three different regeneration modes: Automatic, Blocked, and Forced. In the op-
erator panel, in the Settings menu, there is the Engine submenu, where the choice can be
made between blocked or forced regeneration.

There are no requirements for using the function for blocked regeneration of the exhaust
system. This function is available to give the operator the option to block regeneration in
the following cases:
n When the exhaust extractor is installed on the rig during repairs.
n When personnel must be on the upper parts of the rig with the diesel engine running.
n When there is vegetation or other combustible materials in the immediate vicinity of the
exhaust.

! NOTE: It is not recommended to block regeneration more than necessary. The ma-
chine performs blocked regeneration automatically at the correct exhaust temperature
and when the engine load is normal.

Forced regeneration is only required when the lamp for high soot content in the particulate
filter comes on.

Symbol Description

DANGER
Rotating Parts
There is a risk of serious injury or death as clothing can get caught in the machine.
u Stop the drill rotation before changing drill bits.

FlexiROC T30 R 4 Operation

NOTICE
High Impact Percussion
Risk of damage to drill
u Never start percussion with the drill bit in mid-air.

1. Operate the feeder until the dowel is approximately 10 cm from the rock.

2. Make sure that the rotation lever is in neutral position.

3. Move the drill bit forward until it is pressed against the rock.

4. Switch on high percussion pressure for several seconds.

5. Switch off percussion pressure when the drill bit has loosened. If the percussion pres-
sure is engaged for too long, then the drill rods can disconnect from the shank
adapter.

6. Loosen the old drill bit by hand and replace with a new one.

4.4.20 In Case of Breakdown or Incident

Checking High Coupling Sleeve Temperature

! NOTE: Coupling sleeve temperature must not exceed 120ºC (248ºF).

Depending on the layers of the rock, temperature can vary even within a small area. High
coupling sleeve temperature is usually due to a poor ratio between drill feed pressure, per-
cussion pressure and rotation pressure.
Excessive coupling sleeve temperature is indicated by:
n Measuring with a thermometer.
n Oil dripping from the rock drill vaporizing on the coupling sleeve.
n The coupling sleeve changing color.

Reducing Coupling Sleeve Temperature

1. Check the condition of the drill bit. An overdrilled bit generates less torque in the cou-
pling sleeve.

2. Grind the drill bit.

3. Change to a drill bit with ballistic buttons.

4. Reduce rotation speed as much as possible without causing the drill string to rotate
jerkily If the rock is too hard for ballistic bits.

5. Check the dampening pressure and set it to the recommended level. Reduce percus-
sion pressure to below the basic setting (5-10 bar). A reasonable reduction in pene-
tration rate must be accepted.

6. Check and/or adjust feed pressure so that the shank adapter is in “float position”.

97 No: 2969809547.1.2969824267 en-US

FlexiROC T30 R 4 Operation

Difficulties in Loosening the Coupling Sleeve

The best method of loosening the coupling sleeve is to “drill” the last few centimetres with-
out feed pressure and rotation, leaving percussion active for a few seconds to break the
coupling sleeve.
n Make sure the RPC-F system is set correctly. An RPC-F system that is set too high
causes excessive torque in the coupling sleeve.

Avoiding Hole Deflection

1. Drill with as low drill feed pressure as possible.

2. Check the condition of the drill bit.

3. Use TAC tubes, drop center bits.

4. Drill the first drill steel with reduced drilling for at least half of the drill steel in order to
minimize hole deflection at the start of the hole.

C Brushes

Drill rod threads are lubricated using two brushes (C) attached on the RHS carousel lower
bracket. Lubricant comes from a pump (B) placed in a lubrication tank (A) at the front of the
chassis frame. The pump works on compressed air from the drill rig compressor. The
pump can be activated manually or automatically.

8.2.1 Operation of Thread Lubrication System

Lubrication is regulated with a switch that is described in the chapter, Controls.
n The system operates automatically during normal use. The lubrication pump then op-
erates when the rod handling lever is in position to move a rod to the drill center. Each
time a rod is moved out from the carousel, a certain amount of lubricant is pumped to
the brushes where the rod threads pass.
n If it is necessary to pump more lubricant to the brushes, the system can be operated
manually. The lubrication pump is active as long as the circuit breaker for lubrication is
held in manual position.
n If thread lubrication is not desired, the system can be switched off.

8.3 Hole Quality System

HQS 9 is a system for measuring drill hole bearing. The system comprises:
n Control box with fitted rotating sight. The left-hand display on the control box shows
the drill angle in the sight line. The right-hand display shows the drill angle across the
sight line.
n Attaching bracket
n Power supply cable

8.4 ROC-ANGIE

! NOTE: It is important to aim ROC-ANGIE in the blasting direction or parallel with the
direction of the drill hole.

ROC-ANGIE measures forward and rearward angles and right and left angles from the ver-
tical position of the feeder. If straight vertical holes are drilled, it is unnecessary to aim
ROC-ANGIE. The machine can stand in any direction at all relative to the bench if ROC-
ANGIE is correctly aimed.
ROC-ANGIE can be turned round a vertical axis and aligned in the desired direction in-
stead of aiming the machine in a special direction at each hole. Use a compass or make an
own aiming point if there is not an aiming point (for example, tree, telegraph). The steel in
the machine can affect the compass needle If using a compass. The angles that are shown
in the receiver are always relative to the aiming point, not to the machine, If ROC-ANGIE is
aimed.

8.4.1 Preparing for Assembly ROC-ANGIE

1. Set the feed in a vertical position with the aid of a spirit level. Adjust forward and rear-
ward for a precise vertical reading.

2. Adjust left and right for a precise vertical reading.

3. Check that both left and right angles and forward and rearward angles are still verti-
cal.

8.4.2 Assembling ROC-ANGIE

Precondition p The feed must be in a precisely vertical position, both left and right angles and forward
and rearward angles. See the "assembly" section.

1. Attach the retaining yoke or bracket or welded beam on the feeder at such a height
that the receiver is easy to read. Attach ROC-ANGIE on the same side as the opera-
tor.

2. Position ROC-ANGIE in the retaining yoke and tighten the bolts. Both scales show 0º
even if ROC-ANGIE is rotated round its own axis if everything is correct. Proceed to
the "adjustment" section if not.

8.4.3 Adjusting ROC-ANGIE to Zero Reading

! NOTE: Perform a final check by rotating ROC-ANGIE around its own axis while ob-
serving the two scales - they must show 0º in all directions

133 No: 2969809547.1.2969824267 en-US

FlexiROC T30 R 8 Options

1. Loosen and retighten all bolts by hand. Look at the upper scale and adjust the left and
right bolts (A) to an exact zero reading on the (C) upper scale. Tighten the left and
right bolts by hand.

2. Look at the lower scale (D) and adjust ROC-ANGIE forward and rearward to an exact
zero reading. Tighten the forward and rearward bolts (B) by hand. Check left and
right, forward and rearward once again and adjust as necessary. Tighten all bolts us-
ing a torque wrench.

8.4.4 Installing ROC-ANGIE

1. Choose an aiming point preferably far away.

2. Loosen the handle on the top of ROC-ANGIE.

3. Look through the aim. Turn ROC-ANGIE around until the center arrow in the aim is
exactly in the middle of the aiming point and between the two outer arrows.

4. Adjust the aim or move it to the other side by undoing the knob at the bottom of ROC-
ANGIE if necessary.

5. Lock the handle.

6. Adjust the feeder to the correct angle.

7. Start drilling.

8.4.5 Aiming Examples

Two different ways of aiming ROC-ANGIE are described here. In the first example, the
aiming point is in line with the blasting direction.

a Bench

b Reference Point

In the second example, the aiming point is parallel with the bench. Deciding which method
to use depends on the nature of the terrain and the distance to the aiming point.

8.5 Directional Instrument

A Drill aim device

B Sensors

To control drilling length and penetration rate, the system is equipped with a drilled length
sensor. This is installed on the upper sheave and is connected to the display together with
other components in the system.
The drilled length instrument can be configured to show either the actual drilled length,
hole length measurement, or the vertical depth, vertical depth measurement. In the latter
case, the instrument takes into account the hole inclination, and the value that is displayed
is therefore less than the actual drilled length.
