the mast.
To operate the lanyard emergency stop, pull on the red cable to shut
the engine off. (Pull the reset button on the lanyard switch to reset the
circuit.)
Use of the emergency stops to shut the engine off during normal
operation is not recommended as it is very important to allow the
turbocharge to cool down. After an engine shutdown, allow roughly 30
seconds before isolating power at master disconnect to provide time for
the engine ECU to properly shut down, otherwise fault code 627 may
appear on the engine monitor the next time the engine is started. If this
fault code does show up at start up, turn the ignition key switch off and
restart engine to reset.

grease develop dangerous fumes when they vaporize. Be sure to
use solvents only in well-ventilated areas.
8. The operator must never leave the control panel while drilling is in
progress.
11. If the drill rig is parked on a slope or incline, the wheels must be

Chapter 1: Safety
1.6.5 Hazards
Drilling operations frequently expose workers to imminently hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
The following safety requirements must be observed at all times.
1.6.5.1 Hydraulics
The hydraulic components of the drill rig must be checked regularly.
Always use original Boart Longyear parts to replace worn components.
For safety reasons this specific requirement must be complied with.
It applies to
NEVER use your hand to find the leak. Hydraulic fluid is hot and can burn
the skin. A pinhole leak, under pressure, can inject fluid under your skin,
causing poisoning, infection, and threaten life and limb. In the event of
a skin puncture or laceration from high pressure hydraulic oil, get the
patient to an emergency room for immediate treatment.

Chapter 3: Component Description
The drill system utilizes a spindle drive drill head with a nitrogen charged
chuck to grip the drill rods for rotation directly coupled to a single feed
cylinder to provide thrust and pullback for drilling and breaking core.
The drill bit requires a continuous supply of drilling fluid to operate and
in the hole drilling conditions may also dictate the use of rod grease and
or drilling muds or polymers to flush cuttings, maintain circulation, and
reduce friction in the hole.
1. Track mounted for slow speed off road hole to hole transport.
2. Truck mounted for country of end use specific, on and off road
applications.
The drill can be configured from the factory for cold or hot weather
applications with an overall operating temperature range of –40 to +50
degrees C.
The drill can operate up to an altitude of 1676 MASL before the engine
automatically starts to de-rate.
The drill is not designed for fly applications and is not intended to
be used in an area with a risk of explosive atmosphere or off shore
applications with extended exposure to salt water spray.

Chapter 4: Operation
4.1 Introduction
The following are recommended guidelines and practices to help
prolong the life of your newly obtained Boart Longyear mast.
4.1.1 Safeguards
All operators must be familiar with the equipment and its proper care. If
adjustments or repairs are necessary, or if any damage is known, the
operator must report the details promptly to an appointed person and
must notify the next operator upon changing shifts.
During mast raising and lowering operations it is essential that the drill is
securely anchored first. A slow practical operating speed must be used
during this function at all times.
Should the drill need to be set up in a situation that places the operator
platform higher off the ground than permitted by local regulations, a
properly constructed platform addition should be made.

Chapter 4: Operation
Never exceed the Rated Hook Load, which is indicated on the Load Rating
decal. When calculating hook load, always include load handling devices
(travelling blocks, etc.).
Rope life varies depending on water ph. Duty cycle and weather
conditions will determine rules for replacement. Wire ropes should be
inspected daily and replaced if damaged. Internal corrosion and broken
external strands are the biggest concern.
Wire hoist ropes should be inspected daily during use, looking for
signs broken strands or corrosion. Inspected clevis and hoist pin daily.
Sheaves should be inspected for damage every 6 months of operation
or when hoist ropes are changed. Replace damaged components.

Head float feed is controlled by the rod making breaking switch located
on the OCP. The switch activates the feed and rotation functions
simultaneously.
Do not attempt to make or break drill rods using the main rotation
and fast feed levers. Damage to equipment or personal injury could
occur.
Head float must be re-adjusted every time the mast position is changed.

the head is just starting to move when the switch is is activated. The
threading action will push or pull the head the rest of the way.
One cartridge allows the head to float up for breaking rods and one
allows the head to float down when making rods. The head float setting
is sensitive to mast angle so it will have to be adjusted from time to time.
Never attempt to adjust head float until the hydraulic oil temperature
is above 20 degrees C. The procedure for head float adjustment is
detailed in the following sections.

Chapter 4: Operation
V24
There are two manually operated shift levers located on the side of the
head transmission used to select gears 1 through 4. Max spindle speed
of 1250 RPM is achieved in 4th gear by setting the engine speed to
2200 RPM and setting the motor displacement control to minimum.
Shifting the transmission gear range requires the operator to open the
rotation barrier and manually shift the levers on the transmission. The
outside handle shifts between 1st and 4th gear, the inside handle shifts
between 2nd and 3rd gear. The operator may have to rotate the chuck
by hand to get the gear to properly engage.
Always stop the engine before attempting to rotate the chuck by hand.
Never allow a helper to work on or near the chuck with someone on the
controls.
Rod make-up torque is an important feature on the LF230 that limits the
maximum torque the drill can offer when making-up drill rod joints. This
feature reduces drill rod thread damage and prevents over torqueing of
drill rod joints during the threading process. It extends the life of the drill
string and makes it easier to break drill rod joints when pulling rods.
Rod make up torque is preset in the factory to NQ size drill pipe. Keep
drill rod threads clean and properly lubricated; always use first gear
when making up drill rod joints. Details on how to adjust rod make up
torque are covered in Chapter 5, V35 Rotation Torque Limiting Valve
Adjustment.

Chapter 4: Operation
Never attempt to drill or rotate the drill string at high speed without the
hoist cable connected to the water swivel.
Always minimize rod stick out above the chuck while drilling or rotating
at high speed to prevent the upper rod and water swivel from vibrating.
Failure to do so could cause the drill rod to fail above the chuck resulting
in severe personal injury or death.
Inspect and grease the water swivel bearing daily to ensure it runs freely,
failure to do so could cause the water swivel to seize during operation
resulting in supply hose damage and possible personal injury.
Never use the manual mainline hoist brake release to lower the rod string.
Uncontrolled lowering of the drill string will result in damage to the hoist
plug, chuck and/or hoist park brake. Always reset the hoist brake control
V16 to the on position before attempting to hoist rods.
This valve is an adjustable orifice which meters oil from the “T” port of
the fine feed selector valve (piston end when in the down mode) and is
known as the bleed off pressure. If the valve is only cracked slightly (ie.
counterclockwise), the volume of oil escaping from the low pressure side

Chapter 4: Operation
The Feed cylinder on the LF230 can provide roughly 26600 lbs of thrust
at full system pressure which exceeds the allowable bit weight for most
diamond drill bits.
At the start of the hole, the Pressure Reducing Valve V25 should be
backed off to a maximum feed pressure (depending on bit diameter)
of roughly 400 psi (35 bar) on the feed pressure gauge located on the
OCP. V25 can easily be set to the desired pressure using the fine feed
drilling control V9 to position and stall the drill head at the bottom of the
mast while observing the feed pressure gauge.
The rod weight increases as the hole gets deeper, so the force on the bit
must be decreased to maintain a relatively constant hold back pressure
using valve V25.
When the desired sensitivity of penetration is lost you may adjust the
Pressure Reducing Valve V25 in order to regain the desired sensitivity.
After the hole is completed, always reset the Pressure Reducing Valve
V25 to full open.
2. Connect the water swivel to the drill rod above the chuck.

8. Set engine speed to 2200 rpm using the engine “fast speed” switch
located on the Engine Control Panel.
9. Position the chuck above the joint so that the chuck is roughly in
the middle of the driving rod to minimize vibration.
11. Start the fluid circulation pump and flush the hole, making sure the
inner tube is properly seated.
12. When inner tube is seated, stop the fluid circulation pump and blow
off the water pressure to allow the inner tube shut off washers to
relax.
13. Restart fluid circulation pump until water return volume is adequate
for drilling.
14. Apply light tension to the hoist cable attached to the water swivel to
support the rod weight in the hole.
16. Slowly start rotation using the Rotation Control lever and increase
rpm to the maximum desired.
18. Use the Fine Feed Control lever to advance the drill head and start
drilling.
19. Pay close attention to water pressure and drilling torque pressure.

Chapter 4: Operation
The actual “weight on bit” must be calculated from two different pressure
readings taken on that gauge.
1. Suspend the rods a short distance off bottom with the drill rods
rotating slowly.
2. Close off the fine feed control rate valve and engage the fine feed
directional control valve to the feed down position.
4. Slowly open the fine feed control rate valve. The rods will begin to
move towards bottom and when the bit contacts the bottom of the
hole, Max Bit Weight Pressure will begin to reduce. Record the bit
weight pressure when the pressure stops dropping off.
5. Subtract the Bit Weight Pressure with the bit on bottom, (step 4)
from the “Maximum Bit Weight Pressure” (step 3). This pressure
difference is referred to as the OFF PRESSURE.
For example:
MAXIMUM BIT WEIGHT PRESSURE (WITH RODS OFF
BOTTOM) 1500 PSI (103.4 BAR)
BIT WEIGHT PRESSURE (WITH RODS ON BOTTOM) 1000 PSI
(70 BAR)
OFF PRESSURE = 1500-1000 = 500 PSI (35 BAR)
BIT WEIGHT (FORCE ON BIT) = 25.13 SQ IN x 500 PSI = 12566
lbf
6. The off pressure when multiplied by the effective area of the
hydraulic cylinder ( measured in square inches) will give you the
downward force on the bit or “Bit Weight” measured in lbs. The
following table in Figure 4-9 covers that calculation for you.

Chapter 4: Operation
• Always use tools that are properly secured to the frame and rated for the
load.
2. Blow off any residual water pressure in the drill string to water to
allow inner tube seals to unblock.
4. Keep the bit off bottom and continue to flush hole to remove any
sediment that could hinder reseating the next inner tube.
5. Shut off flushing water to the bit and remove the water swivel.
Never jam the Wireline Hoist Control lever and leave the wireline
running unattended.
7. Once the overshot contacts the head of the inner tube, the wireline
rope will slacken, immediately stop the lowering process.
Never jam the Wireline Hoist Control lever and leave the wireline
running unattended.

Chapter 4: Operation
9. Pay attention to the wire rope as the overshot nears the surface;
water being bailed from the drill string will normally increase.
Never allow anyone to wipe the wireline rope by hand. Severe injury
could occur.
10. Stop the wireline as soon as the inner tube exits the funnel.
Always lock the overshot before the inner tube is hoisted above the
head to prevent inadvertent release and possible injury to personnel
below.
11. Once the overshot is secure, hoist the inner tube above the funnel
where the helper can assist in guiding it to the ground.
4.20 Hoisting
The mainline hoist is only intended to be used as an aid for lifting drill
rods and casing into the mast or for hoisting the drill string from the hole.
It must never be used as a winch for servicing the rig or lifting people.
●● Ensure that the mainline hoist rope and hoisting tools are inspected
daily for any sign of damage.
●● Use the proper load rated tools for the hoist, including clevis pins,
hoist plug, and water swivel.
●● Replace any hoisting subs with worn or damaged threads.
●● The wire rope is designed to provide superior flexibility and
strength. Wire ropes are certified as part of the hoisting system for
a specific breaking strength to meet accepted industry standards.
Always use Boart Longyear original equipment.
●● Ensure the hoist is kept in good working order and serviced
regularly as detailed in Appendix D.

Chapter 4: Operation
When hoisting or lowering rods, make sure the main hoisting cable is
in tension before opening the chuck. Failure to do so could result in the
hoist slipping and the rods dropping uncontrollably. This situation could
cause both equipment damage and personal injury.
The LF230 has a two speed mainline hoist control. The high speed
setting can be used at the top of the hole where maximum pulling force
is not required. As the hole gets deeper, select the slower setting to get
more pulling force. Set Engine speed to 2200 RPM for maximum hoist
speed.
3. Use the fast feed joystick to raise the drill head to break the core
and pull the bit at least 12” (300 mm) off the bottom of the hole.
4. Allow the water pump to flush the hole for about five minutes before
rotating the pump’s speed control completely clockwise.
6. Allow the unit to idle for about five minutes. This is very important to
allow the turbocharger to cool down.
7. Turn the engine off by rotating the key all the way
counterclockwise.

2. Loosen the clamping jaw set screw on the inside mast support leg
(i.e., closest to the diesel engine) and detach the sliding section
from the front of the drill base.
3. Push the telescoping inner support leg section into the outer
support leg section and fold the support leg back to its travelling
position on the lower mast section and retain it in the bracket
provided.
4. Repeat step 2 with the outside mast support leg (i.e., furthest from
the diesel engine) and retain it in its travelling position.
5. Start the engine and adjust to 1500 rpm. Pull the diverter valve.
Slowly move the Mast Raising Control lever to begin lowering the
mast.
Ensure that no one is in the vicinity of the mast lowering area and
that there are no overhead power lines, trees, or structures that may
foul the mast during the lowering operation.
7. Once the mast has come to rest on its support brackets at the
front of the drill base, remove the spacers and bolts from the cable
retainers on the crown block assembly and remove the mainline
hoist and wireline hoist cables.

The tank is constructed of aluminium plate. Access for inside the tank is
through an 18” (450 mm Ø) end cover. Return from the main valve bank
flows through an oil cooler and on through a return filter mounted in
the hydraulic tank. The return filter is outfitted with a return line diffuser
to prevent foaming of the oil. Suction and return oils are separated by
a baffle down the centre of the tank. On top of the tank is the return
line filter from the auxiliary pump. On the side of the tank is the high
pressure filter for oil going to the main valve bank. The tank has an oil
level switch and temperature alarm set at 170°F in the tank. The tank
is also outfitted with a spin on breather. Never fill the tank through this
opening. Always use the filler pump supplied to ensure new oil passes
through the return filter.

Failure to use the proper type and viscosity of planetary gear oil may
contribute to intermittent brake clutch slippage which could result in
property damage or severe injury. Some gear lubricants contain large
amounts of EP (extreme pressure) and anti-friction additives which may
contribute to brake clutch slippage or damage to brake friction discs or
seals. Oil viscosity with regard to ambient temperature is also critical
to reliable brake clutch operation. Manufacturer’s test indicate that
excessively heavy or thick gear oil may contribute to intermittent brake
clutch slippage. Make certain that the gear oil viscosity used in your

being loaded. A small variation in wire rope diameter from the rope
manufacturer can negatively impact the lay of the cable on the
drum. Use a vernier caliper to measure the width of the rope being
loaded and the following table to select the proper timing sprocket.

●● The first layer must have the minimum (nominal ) number of wraps
as identified in the table for subsequent layers to follow. Pay extra
attention to the lay of the first layer of rope during installation. Use a
soft mallet or pry bar to ensure there are no gaps between each
wrap of rope during the loading process per Figure 7-18.
Subsequent layers should better follow the first.
●● If the level wind is traveling too fast leaving gaps, go down one
sprocket size to decrease traverse speed. If the level wind is
moving too slow leaving humps, go up one sprocket size to
increase the traverse speed.

Note: The lower spindle bushing and lower chuck bushing are NOT
used for HWT/PQ sizes. To insert PQ core barrel assembly, the upper
chuck bushing will have to be removed and replaced after insertion,
otherwise cuttings will infiltrate the area around the mitogen gas springs.
Nitrogen gas springs are designed to have a long service life. Inspect
the gas springs periodically while changing jaws (3 month intervals).
1. Remove the spring retainer to access the gas springs for inspection
and replacement.
2. Measure the free length of the exposed piston rod above the
barrel. If the gas spring is still charged with nitrogen, the rod will be
extended 1” (25mm). Replace any spring that does not meet this
requirement.

WINCH OPERATION Valve
The hydraulic motor drives the sun gear of the primary Low Pressure Medium Pressure High Pressure
planetary gear set through the splined inner race of the
brake clutch. When driven by the sun gear, the primary
planet gears walk around the ring gear in the drum and Figure 3

suitable container. Recycle or dispose of used oil in
an environmentally responsible manner. While the
oil is draining, collect oil from mid-stream for oil
analysis.
Failure to use the proper type and viscosity of planetary gear oil may contribute to intermittent brake clutch slip-
page which could result in property damage, severe personal injury or death. Some gear lubricants contain large
amounts of EP (extreme pressure) and anti-friction additives which may contribute to brake clutch slippage or
damage to brake friction discs or seals. Oil viscosity with regard to ambient temperature is also critical to reliable
brake clutch operation. Our tests indicate that excessively heavy or thick gear oil may contribute to intermittent
brake clutch slippage. Make certain that the gear oil viscosity used in your hoist is correct for your prevailing
ambient temperature.
