Adding New Tool Joints to the Drill String
Experience shows that the first few trips in the holes area are the most hazardous in the life of rod tool joints. For this reason, extra care must be taken during the break-in period. We recommend the following steps for handling new tool joints. 1. Keep threads on the water swivel and the hoisting plug in good
condition, as they mate with every box.
2. Thoroughly clean pin heads, box threads and shoulders. When you run Boart Longyear rods into the hole, liberally coat the pin and box threads and shoulders with Esso Z-50 recommended thread grease.
3. Before each trip, coat the box threads and shoulders with the lubricant again.
4. Avoid forced makeup of improperly engaged threads. In stabbing, the flat crests on new threads sometimes wedge against each other. A slight amount of back up will free them.
Removing Core from the Inner Tube
1. Unscrew the inner tube from the head assembly, using Boart Longyear tube wrenches (Figure 4D). When you use two inner tubes, inspect and service one, between core runs, while the other one is inserted into the drill string and pumped into position.
2. Empty core from the inner tube. Jar the core loose from the inner tube by tapping with a rubber mallet (Figure 4E). Place the core carefully in a box and mark as instructed by the geologist on site.
When emptying the inner tube, do not attempt to stop the core with your hand. Core can be sharp or heavy and cause severe injury. If it’s necessary to look into an inner tube, always look down into the tube.
3. Between each core run, check the inside of the inner tube to be sure all the core has been removed. Flush out the inner tube with clear water to remove all chips and grit.
4. Check the core filter case, stop ring, and core lifter (Figure 4F). The core lifter should rotate freely. If the inside surface of the core lifter is smooth, the grip action on the core lifter should be checked. Insert a short section of core into the core lifter and pull it out to see if the core lifter will firmly grip the core. If the core slips, replace the core lifter (See chapter 6: Inspection and Maintenance – After Service).
5. Lightly grease the outside of the core lifter and the inside of the core lifter case.

CHAPTER 5
Maintenance – Between Core Runs
Head Assembly
1. Wash the head assembly in clear water to remove drilling mud and grit.
2. Inspect the action of the latching and the latch retracting case. Both should work freely. Check the spindle for straightness.
3. Check the movement of the spindle bearings. They should spin freely and there should be no vertical end play. If end play exists, the head assembly needs further repairs. (See Chapter 6: Inspection and Maintenance – After Service.)
4. Check the shut-off valve for shredding.
5. If no parts have been replaced and the bearings are in good condition, apply grease to the latches and the latch retraction case. Pump “Shell Alvania EP2” or equivalent grease into the grease fitting until clean grease flows out of the grease relief hole in the thrust hole. Rotate the inner tube trap slowly to distribute the grease while pumping.
6. Rejoin the head assembly to the inner tube, ready for the next core run (Figure 5A).
Inner Tube Assembly
1. Check the Core Lifter Case, Stop Ring and Core Filter (Figure 5B). The core lifter should rotate freely. If the inside surface of the core lifter is smooth, check the grip action of the core lifter. Insert a short section of the core into the core lifter and pull it out to see if the core lifter will fully grip the core. If the core slips, the core lifter or the core lifter case should be replaced.
2. Before you can extract a worn core lifter, you must remove the stop ring:
- Insert a screwdriver blade in the ring and pry loose.
- Rotate the stop ring so that the ring hoop is at 90 degrees with the diameter of the core lifter case and pull it out.
- Replace the worn core lifter.
To replace the stop ring:
- Slide it in the 90 degree position.
- Rotate the hoop 90 degrees and snap into the recess.
- Grease the outside of the core lifter.
Visually inspect the inside of the core lifter case to be sure the stop ring is properly positioned.

Inner Tube Assembly
1. Using Boar Longyear tube wrenches remove the inner tube cap from the spindle bearing (Figure 6A) and wash out the grease within the cap.
2. Clean the grease from me compression spring and from the bearings and the spindle shaft.
3. Check both the thrust and hangar bearings to see that the cages are not broken and that the races are spinning freely. If replacement is required, it is very Important to ensure that the bearings are installed correctly (Figure 6B). If you look at the top and bottom of one of the bearings you will notice that one of the inside diameters is larger than the other. The difference in diameters is very important during installation of the bearings. The larger inside diameter must always face the spindle bearing to allow proper grease flow. After installation, pump grease into the inner tube cap assembly until grease squirts out of grease relief hole in the thrust bearing.
NOTE: Thrust type hall bearings have two different inner diameters. For correct installation, the largest inner diameter must contact the spindle. Wrong bearing installation can reduce the head life and cause excessive core lifter wear.
4. It the rubber shut-off valves or any of the bearings need replacing (Figure 6C), than remove the self- locking nut arm and strip the spindle shaft of all parts, keeping the bearings together as a group. Inspect ball check spring and stainless steel ball for caked dirt or water.
7. Reassemble the inner tube cap to spindle bearing (Figure 6A). Pump grease into inner tube cap until it is full and grease squirts out of the grease relief hole in the thrust bearing (Figure 6B). Check the lower edge of the landing shoulder ring for wear. If it shows signs or wear it can be reversed by unscrewing the upper latch body from the lower. The ring is a slip fit on the lower latch body.
8. Check the action of the latching mechanism. It should operate smoothly and freely. Apply cup grease to the latches and the latch retraction case.
9. lf the latches or links show excessive wear, remove worn latches by removing latch retraction case and driving out the spring pin (See Assembly and Disassembly instructions on page 17).
10. When installing new latches, the latches must fit within the case relative lo the slots in the latch retraction case.
11. Pump “Shell Alvania EP2” or equivalent grease until it flows up through the thrust bearings.
12. Check the spearhead assembly for wear. Replace as necessary.
13. Attach the inner lube to the head assembly.
14. Set the inner tube assembly aside and service the outer tube assembly.
Inspection and Maintenance – After Service
5. Check me spindle assembly shaft for wear and shaft straightness. Although some shaft wear is permissible, replace the shaft if gaps or grooves are visible.
6. Thread soil-locking nut to spindle. Tighten the self-locking nut so the compression spring is not pre-loaded. There should he no up and down bearing end play, however, all the bearings must spin
freely.

Drilling with down hole motor. Connect rotation head up to rods and run water at a high rate to get Down Hole Motor spinning, Run rods slowly to bottom (the weight and water pressure will tell you when you touch bottom). Then slowly increase bit weight until Down Hole Motor stalls, then decrease weight slightly, this will generally give you the best penetration rate.
Check specification of Motor The Down Hole Motor may stall from time to time due to broken or hard ground, lf this happens lift rods slightly off bottom then slowly put rods back on bottom and continue drilling. Slow penetration rate if this continues.
Aim for 150 to 200 differential pressure whilst drilling. Make sure that rod string is unable to move anti clockwise (back rods up with stilsons). Lock off rotation levers. Place head in low gear. Use Auscut, bit lube or a similar lubricant when drilling with motor.
