1.- Summary
Model XQ29/1.8 Hydraulic power tong is an opening type power tong, which is used to make up and break out
sucker rod’s joint casing thread in well service. It has following features:
1) The master tong is driven by low speed large torque hydraulic oil motor, control valve matches oil motor
directly, its structure is simple, compact and portable.
2) The new hydraulic backup tong and the master tong form a combined tong, operate the control valve on the
master tong, the backup tong will automatically clip or simultaneously loosen the sucker rod joint.
3) The method that both master tong and backup tong use are inner curved roller climbing and bi-direction
clipping mechanism. It just needs to change the direction of knob on master tong and backup tong when
clipping.
4) Change dies of different sizes, it can clip sucker rod’s joint or tubing of corresponding specification.
5) The tong has two speeds. It works with high efficiency when jerking and spinning at low speed or high speed.
3.- Installation
1) Hanging. Connect mechanical lift (1.8DT) and master tong’s suspension rod. Hang the power tong on the
master of work over rig. The suspension pulley should be above the ground more than 15m. Under free
hanging, power tong head’s center is about 0.5m above the well center. Hanging height is the best when die
pieces face sucker rod’s square section under the coupling. Adjusting the distance between master tong and
backup tong so that die pieces face sucker rod’ square section above the coupling.
2) Adjustment. Adjust the screw (1.8.Z-41) so that power tong keep horizontal. If it is not horizontal, the clipping
will be in failure.
3) Other end should be tied to on the back guide arm seat (1.8.Z-32) of the power tong. The back guy should be
able to bear one ton loads and be opposite to the operator and keep vertical with power tong. Put up back guy
in case there is an emergency in clipping sucker rod or tubing. It is also for the safety of the operator who
usually stands beside the operation handle.
4) Pipe line connection. Please see illustration ”Fig. 9.4”. Port “P” connects oil supply hose while port “O”

connects oil return hose. The nominal diameters of the oil supply hose and the oil return hose should not be
less than 20mm.
5.- Operation
1) Operation of shifts
Operation control valve to make the power tong rotate slightly. Press shift fork , it engages high speed. Pull
shift fork up, it engages low speed. Shift must be carried out when power tong rotates in low speed avoiding
damaging gears.

2) Make up
When the opening of master tong and backup tong’s head align properly, turn the rest knob (1.8.Z.1-16) on
power tong and reset knob (1.8.B-2) on backup tong to the direction of makeup. Push power tong to suck rod
or tubing string. When master tong and jaw set of backup tong face the square section of joint or tubing, it is
ready for making up. When makeup is finished, operate power tong to rotate in reverse direction until the
opening of master tong and backup tong align properly. Pull power tong away from rod or tubing string, then
makeup is over.
3) Break out
When the opening of master tong and backup tong align properly, turn reset knob(1.8.Z.1-16) on master tong
and reset knob (1.8.B-2) on the backup tong to the direction of breakout. Push power tong to sucker rod
string. When master tong and jaw set of backup tong face the square section of joint, it is ready for breaking
out. When breakout is finished, operate power tong rotate in reverse direction until the opening of master
tong and backup tong head align properly. Pull power tong away from rod string, then breakout is over.

1) After every transportation, it is necessary to wash master tong and backup tong with kerosene or diesel oil
and inject grease to oil cups (see part no(1.8.Z-16)) of machine body, jaw set and jaw set bracket on master
tong and backup tong, the surface of open gears.
2) Every three months in work, remove the cover plate (1.8.Z-45) and inject lubrication grease to gears’
surfaces.
3) After every use, clear water and oil dust in tong immediately and keep the equipment clean.
4) After every use in well service, it is necessary to inject lubricating grease to every rotary pin shaft.
5) Do not use vapor to clear tong in case the inner part loses oil or water enters into the inner part which may
cause damage to parts.
6) The temperature of hydraulic oil should not be over 65℃ . The over heat will make the seal of hydraulic
pressure system out of order.
7) Hydraulic oil must be kept clean and filter must be cleaned regularly. If the hydraulic oil has been dirty, it
must be changed without delay.
8) Hydraulic oil selected
(1) Low solidifying point hydraulic oil YC-N46, application ambient temperature range: -20 ~ +40℃.
(2) Waterproof hydraulic oil YB-N46,application ambient temperature range: -10 ~ +40℃
(3) Ordinary hydraulic oil YA-N46, application ambient temperature range: 0 ~ +40℃.
Users can take hydraulic oil, lubricating grease and lubricating oil by themselves in accordance with local
condition.
