How to Properly Clean a Portable Water Well Drilling Rig

 1. Clean mud and dirt from rig surfaces, especially base, stand, and arm, with a high-pressure water gun or brush.

2. Wipe down the metal parts.
3. after removing the drill pipe and bit, rinse the attached mud, rock chips or other debris with clean water.
4. focus on cleaning the bit edges to make sure they are sharp and free of clogs.
5. After cleaning, check the drill pipe for bends, cracks or wear, and replace it if necessary.
6. Apply anti-rust oil or lubricant after cleaning to prevent oxidation or corrosion.
7. Check hydraulic line connections for adherence of soil and oil, wipe clean with a clean cloth or cleaner.
8. Check and clean the cartridge or filter in the hydraulic system to avoid clogging of impurities affecting hydraulic performance.
9. Wipe the outside of the engine with a damp cloth to avoid sludge covering the heat sink and affecting the heat dissipation effect.
10. Prohibit the engine from being flushed directly with high-pressure water to avoid water entering the electrical system.
11. Flush the drilling fluid pipeline with clean water to remove the residual mud and prevent the pipeline from clogging.
12. Check the mud pump to ensure that there is no debris inside its impeller and pipes.

Through standardized cleaning, portable water well drilling rigs can maintain good running conditions, reduce the occurrence of failures, and improve service life and operational efficiency.

How to extend the life of drill pipe

  1. When using a new drill pipe, the drilling rig manufacturer should make sure that the wire fasteners on the front cut-off (protecting the shaft head) of the drill bit are also close to the new one. A ring-buckled rotating head can easily damage the wire fasteners of the new drill pipe, resulting in leaks, snaps, and loosening, and so on. 2. In the use of drill pipe for a drilling, should be first “grinding new buckle”, which consists of, first smeared with silk buckle oil, and then use the drill rig full torque, and then open the buckle, and then smeared with silk buckle oil and then open, and so on for three times, you can avoid the new wear and buckle. 3. As far as possible to maintain the drill pipe under the ground and on the ground in a straight line, so as to avoid part of the side of the wire buckle force and cause unwanted wear and tear, or even jump buckle, pay attention to the rig anchored to avoid the construction of the force to move is very important. 4. The buckle...

What are the Basic Maintenance Methods for Water Well Drilling Rigs

  Cleaning: After every day's operation, clean the mud, oil, and other debris on the rig in time to keep the rig clean. Checking lubrication: regularly check  the lubrication points to ensure that the lubricant is sufficient and the grease is clean. Fasteners check: you can check whether the bolts and nuts of each part are loose and tighten them in time. Hydraulic system checks: you can check whether the hydraulic oil level is normal, whether there is no leakage phenomenon, and whether the hydraulic oil is clean. Lubrication system maintenance: regular replacement of lubricating oil, grease, cleaning oil filter, and oil tank. Hydraulic system maintenance: regular replacement of hydraulic oil, cleaning hydraulic filter. Cooling system maintenance: clean the radiator, and check the coolant level. Transmission system maintenance: check the tightness of the transmission belt, and replace the worn transmission belt. Electrical system maintenance: check whether the line is firm...

Use and maintenance of drill bits

Use and maintenance of drill bits: 1. Choose a suitable drill bit:  Before using a drill bit, it is necessary to select the appropriate type and specification of drill bit based on drilling conditions and needs. 2. Installing the drill bit:  When installing the drill bit, it is necessary to ensure that the connection between the drill bit and the drill pipe is firm, and to correctly install the cutting teeth of the drill bit. 3. Maintain appropriate drilling speed and pressure during the drilling process:  Excessive drilling speed and pressure can lead to premature wear and damage of the drill bit, while too small can affect drilling efficiency. 4. Regular inspection and maintenance:  Regularly check the wear of the drill bit and replace severely worn components in a timely manner. At the same time, it is necessary to regularly clean and lubricate the drill bit to extend its service life. 5. Storage and preservation:  When storing and preserving drill bits, it i...
