Control the condition of hoses regularly, and check that they runproperly in the guides. Remember that a hose breakage can alsocause personal injury.

When checking the hydraulic circuit for leaks, look and listen, donot feel about with hands – high--pressure oil sprays canpenetrate the skin and cause serious injuries.

Watch out for rotating parts.

Certain work phases require the use of a feed cylinder duringrepair. Make sure that

--   it does not cause any danger

--   the rig can be stopped at once, if necessary, and that

--   the powerpack is stopped again before continuing the repair work.

7. BEAM AND CARRIAGE SLIDE PIECES

7.1. General

The beam of the TF 500 is made of an aluminum profile with the sliding surfaces facedwith stainless steel strips.

The carriers of the rock drill, hose reel, and intermediate centraliser move along the feedbeam on similar slide pieces. Each slide piece is fastened to the carrier with three screwsand nuts through the frame strip. The screws lock the slide piece lengthwise. The formof the slide pieces and their supports function as lateral locking.

7.2. Adjusting slide pieces

The slide pieces normally require noadjustments when replaced, as the piecesare located to correct clearances at the

beam centre line with the aid of locatingshoulders on the carriers and the framestrips.

If the slide pieces are so worn that theclearance is more than 3 mm, theclearance can be adjusted to the specifiedvalue with the slotted holes in the carriages.

 After adjustment, the screws are tightenedto 120 Nm.

Replacing piston seal

1. Remove the old seal.

2. Install the new seal into its groove by gently stretching it with the aid of e.g. ascrewdriver. Installing can be made easier by warming up the seal in an oven, oilbath or water (to max. 200˚C).

3. After installing, set the seal into its groove using e.g. a cylinder tube. Lubricate theseal first.

Replacing piston rod seal

1. Bend the piston rod seal with caution so that no sharp bends are formed. Installthe sealing ring into the correct groove using your fingers and press the seal intothe groove with your fingers.

2. Set the seals into the grooves after installing. An oiled piston rod can be used forthe setting the seals, but do it very carefully as the setting direction is unfavorableto the seals. The wiper is slipped into its groove.

When adjusting hose tensions, leave the percussion pressure hoseslightly less tensioned than the others.

 Adjusting hose tension:

1. Open the two bolts (3) on the side of the hoses to be tightened.

2. Pull the hoses to appropriate tightness (the suitable slack of the hoses isapproximately 5 cm).

3. Clamp the hoses by tightening the two bolts (3).

12. ADJUSTING WIRE TENSION

 A new wire tends to stretch at first until the wire strands have become somewhatstraightened. Therefore, retighten the wires after replacement when, for instance, oneround has been drilled.

 Adjustment is done when the wire is unloaded and the hose reel is in the rear position.

1. Adjust the return wire (A) at the wire end connected to the hose support. The wireend is provided with a threaded piece and locking nuts.

D   Open the locking nut (2) at the hose support and use the other nut (1) to tightenthe wire. Use a suitable tool to prevent the wire from turning.

D   Tighten the locking nut (2).

2. Tighten the pulling wire (B) using the tubular nut (3) at the rear end of the feed.

D   Open the locking nut (4) through the opening at the rear end of the beam.

D   Use a suitable tool to prevent the wire from turning, and tighten the wire so that acorrect clearance (85 to 88 mm for stabiliser model or 150 to 153 mm for basicmodel) is left between the rear of the rock drill and the front edge of the hose reel,as shown in picture on page 18.

D   Tighten the locking nut (4).

 ADJUSTING

PRESSURE

Note! With the TFX 500 feed you must use approx. 15 bar (TFX 550, 50 bar) higher feedpressure than with TF feed, because of the pressure relief valve mounted into the line of upper feed cylinder B port.

Example: If you normally use 90 bar feed pressure with the TF feed, you have to set the

feed pressure up to 105 bar (TFX 550, 140 bar) with the telescopic feed by using the feedpressure adjusting valve.

The feed pressure can also be adjusted during drilling. The adjustment is correct, whenthe beam and rock drill move simultaneously (not with the same speed). The feedpressure is adjusted 0.5 times higher than the value of the adjusted valve compared tothe TF feed.
