SAFETY TXT-10004141/A1

2.1

General Safety High voltages, mechanical, chemical, thermal, pressure, noise and stored energy hazards can be present in Elmar equipment. Therefore, pay special attention to safety when working with this equipment. • Meet all applicable codes, laws and local field regulations (including environmental and additional owner/user company policy). This manual contains recommendations, but should not be assumed to satisfy all requirements of legal regulations. • Read and understand each item in this manual and follow all procedures, precautions and advice exactly - never take short cuts. Always consider your safety and that of others. • Only use the equipment within its design scope to avoid damage or dangerous situations. This manual (in its most current revision) is a minimum requirement for all persons working with Elmar equipment. All other current and applicable documents such as certification, drawings, bill of materials, vendor documentation, etc, should be readily available at the worksite.

2.1.1

Employee responsibility • Never leave "operation-ready" equipment unattended. • Keep equipment clean (accumulated dirt and dust can hamper unit operations and may increase the risk of ignition). • Wear personal protection equipment (PPE) where necessary; for example gloves and protective footwear. • Never work alone if there is a possibility of an accident. • Keep loose clothing and long hair well away from moving mechanical parts. • Remove rings, wristwatch, etc, before working. • Never disconnect, change or remove safety devices, and use such devices correctly. • Be aware of all emergency equipment and procedures (such as alarms, abandon ship, etc.) and make sure they are in place and valid. • Do not use the equipment after an emergency without verifying that the cause of the emergency has been removed or rectified. • Immediately inform the employer and other workers of any situation that represents a serious danger to safety and health, and of any shortcomings in protection arrangements. • Plan all operations including interdependencies with other equipment operations • If equipment is tied down using rope/line/chains, attach a "flag" to signal their location. • During installation, maintenance and/or equipment inspection:  where possible, make sure electrical/mechanical equipment is switched off completely, and use a decal or similar to prevent unauthorized starting;  always relieve pressure before working on hydraulic and/or pneumatic systems.

2.1.2

Employer responsibility • Define the required competency of personnel working on the equipment (including supervision) and provide the required consultation, information and training.



2 Safety

• Correctly maintain and use equipment, apparatus, tools, and dangerous substances.

FlyLine User Manual

• Ensure that only trained, qualified and competent personnel can work on the equipment. • Ensure adequate safety equipment and emergency procedures are available (fire extinguishers, PPE, escape routes, etc.), and that personnel are trained to use them. • Ensure a suitable program for installation, operation, maintenance, periodic inspection and testing of the equipment is defined, adhered to and recorded. • Do not allow work to proceed until a thorough examination and risk assessment of the work site and equipment has been done. The examination should assess (as a minimum) the condition of the work site and all critical components, plus the equipment structure. Only give approval to proceed when controls to manage potential causes are in place and measures are taken to mitigate potential consequences.

2.1.3

Warnings, cautions and requirements Equipment handling may involve residual risks which cannot be reasonably reduced by design alterations. To alert the user to potential hazards and recommend safe working practices, additional information is provided as warnings, cautions and/or requirements: • WARNING shows a relevant icon and the text WARNING with a description of the hazard and the best practise to avoid it. Ignoring a warning can result in equipment damage, plus serious injury and/or death. • CAUTION shows a relevant icon and the text CAUTION with a description of the hazard and the best practise to avoid it. Ignoring a caution can result in damage to equipment.

2 Safety

Equipment specific safety

2.2.1

Emergency Stop buttons TXT-10004568/A

Emergency stop buttons are conveniently positioned on equipment and are easily recognized because of their bright red colour. See examples in Figure 2.1.

Figure 2.1 Examples of Emergency Stop buttons Press the button in an emergency situation to instantly cut primary energy supply (electric, hydraulic or pneumatic) to moving parts. This will disable further equipment movement and reduce danger to the operator. Always notify a supervisor after pressing an EMERGENCY STOP.

2.2.2

Heavy equipment • Never attempt to move heavy equipment without the aid of a sufficiently dimensioned and certified mechanical device. • Only hoist joined equipment after ensuring that the joined equipment has been certified for single lifting by checking the certification in the Documentation Package that came with your equipment. • Make sure you cannot get trapped between a lifted load and a wall, fixed object, etc. • Never walk under a hanging load or allow heavy objects to rest in an unstable position.

2.2.3

ATEX and zoning TXT-10004560/A1

Certain equipment may optionally be certified as Rig safe, Zone 1, Zone 2, and/or ATEX. If the equipment is certified according to ATEX regulations, the following applies: • The power supply, including driven parts, has been manufactured and assessed according to ATEX and tagged with a unique identification number. • Only specially trained personnel may service this equipment otherwise Rig safe, Zone 1, or Zone 2 compliance will be compromised. • Certified explosion safe equipment is suitable for use in gas hazardous classified locations. Check your unit data plate(s) and the specifications tables in the Appendix for the ATEX classification for your equipment. • The design and manufacturing is based on European Directive no. 94/9/EC following conformity assessment procedure relating to internal control of production according Annex VIII of the Directive. The construction is documented in a confidential Technical Construction File held at the offices of Elmar.

2 Safety

TXT-10004562/A

FlyLine User Manual

2.2.4

Doors and hatches TXT-10004565/A

• While opening/closing hatches and doors, take account of wind conditions or sudden movement. Hatches and doors may forcibly swing open/shut causing damage or injury. • When open, the hinge side of doors and hatches can create extremely hazardous pinch points for fingers, clothing, hoses and cables. Always check the hinge side before closing any door or hatch. • Always use any built-in retainers to anchor the door or hatch if you need to leave it open or closed while you work.

2.2.5

Wireline TXT-10004564/A

• Never allow the number of wraps on a wireline winch drum to go below a minimum of three (3) wraps. When the last layer is unwinding, winch-off slowly, and keep close control on the remaining wraps. • Never allow the wireline to go slack! A slack wireline can be caused by an obstruction that may clear suddenly, with an unexpected and potentially lethal tightening of the wireline as a result.

2 Safety

• If the wireline is rigged up but is not going to run for a period, clamp the wire, diminish the tension, and "flag" the wire with signs. During wireline operations, consider the zone in front of the winch as a danger zone (see the shaded area in Figure 2.2): • Never allow anyone to enter this area when there is tension on the wireline! • Treat this area as a potential danger zone and take extreme care, even when there is no tension on the wireline.

Diesel engine The engine systems are described in the following sections: • 4.6.1 Engine oil on page 36 • 4.6.2 Engine safety features on page 38 • 4.6.3 Engine fuel system on page 40 • 4.6.4 Hydraulic engine starter (optional) on page 42, • 4.6.5 Pneumatic engine starter (optional) on page 43, • 4.6.6 Spring engine starter (optional) on page 44, • 4.6.7 Cooling systems on page 45 • 4.6.8 Additional features of Heavy Duty power packs on page 46 Primary power is generated by a four cylinder diesel engine. The engine is Rig safe or Zone 2 compliant, with features to eliminate any risk of explosion during normal operation, and to shut down the engine when there is risk of explosion. The engine is available in regular and heavy duty configurations. The latter will include a turbo charger in the engine assembly for additional power output. The engine is liquid cooled with forced ventilation.

The engine air supply is drawn through an air filter in the power pack. An air shut-off valve in the intake kills the engine or prevents it from starting when it is unsafe for the engine to run. On Zone 2 units, engine exhaust is treated before discharge to prevent an explosion from heat or sparks. The first stage is an exhaust gas cooler, which cools the exhaust gas enough to prevent the ignition of potentially explosive ambient gases. The second stage is a spark arrester, which filters hot solid particles from the exhaust gas. The engine is started by an electric (Rig safe only), hydraulic, pneumatic or spring starter. The engine is bolted to a subframe assembly. Four shock mounts attach the subframe assembly to the power pack frame to ensure good vibration control.




The diesel fuel tank is situated in the power pack, underneath the engine. The fuel is filtered in three stages between the tank and the engine: coarse particle filter, water/fuel separator, and fine particle filter. An isolation valve beside the tank can be closed during maintenance and transport.

FlyLine User Manual

Engine fuel safety valve

(Shown in operation state). Causes an instant engine shutdown by cutting off the fuel supply. This valve controls the fuel supply to the engine, and is actuated by engine oil pressure. Engine oil under pressure enters and exits through the upper connections. Fuel from the fuel pump enters and exits to the engine injectors through the lower connections. When there is sufficient engine oil pressure, the valve stays open. If the oil pressure drops under approximately 0.5 bar (7.5 psi) the valve will block the supply of fuel, shutting down the engine. Before starting, the valve must be manually disarmed by rotating the lever down. It will arm itself once the engine is running and generating oil pressure. NOTE: Also referred to as ‘sentinel valve’ or ‘master valve’.

2

Air inlet valve

Causes an instant engine shutdown by cutting off the air supply. When explosive gases are present in the air, a diesel engine can sometimes continue to run, even when the fuel and electrical supply are cut off. This butterfly valve in the air intake is actuated by engine oil pressure. When there is sufficient engine oil pressure, the valve stays open. The valve is manually latched open before starting, but will be held open automatically once the engine is running and generating oil pressure. See item 14 in Figure 5.2 on page 66. for the air inlet valve control. This component requires periodic maintenance (cleaning).

3

Exhaust temperature shutdown valve (optional, normally open)

This valve is placed in the oil pressure circuit to the engine safety valve. In the event of excessive exhaust temperature (maximum 200 °C), the valve will close, triggering the Zone 2 engine shutdown.

4

Crankcase breather flame trap

The top opening for the crankcase air breather is connected to a flexible hose that leads to a flame trap device. The flame trap prevents ignition of an explosive atmosphere by a possible flame in the crankcase. This component requires regular inspection and maintenance.

5

Exhaust silencer with spark arrester

The silencer is equipped with a spark arrester to catch glowing soot in the exhaust gases that may still be present after the exhaust gas cooler. The ash is collected in the lower side of the silencer, and can be removed via the plugged cleaning opening on the bottom. This component requires regular inspection and cleaning.

6

Spark arrester cleaning opening

During servicing, remove the plug to extract the spark ash through this opening

7

Exhaust gas cooler (optional)

The cooler is a box-shaped water jacket that leads the exhaust gas flow through cooling tubes from the engine exhaust manifold to the silencer. The exhaust manifold (not shown) is also water-cooled. The water jacket coolant is itself cooled in the cooling system radiator.This component requires no routine servicing.

AIR INLET VALVE (push / pull type)

Override for the automatic valve closure to enable the engine to start. When the engine is running, the valve must be controlled by the Zone 2 safety system. PULL before starting the engine, and hold in place. Then PUSH in when the engine oil pressure reaches 2.0 bar (29 psi), so that the automatic control can take over after the engine start. The air inlet valve is automatically closed to kill the engine when the engine or winch safety systems detect a hazardous condition. Without air, the combustion in the diesel engine cannot take place. WARNING: Do not run the engine with the air inlet valve handle left in the pulled out position. This can prevent the engine from shutting down in a Zone 2 hazardous situation!

3

Engine overspeed control valve (pneumatic)

The tachometer in the main control panel is driven by the cable from the output above the compressor. The cable passes through this pneumatic control valve (NC) which is preset to open at 2500 rpm. The engine normally will run at a lower speed than this. An overspeed may be a sign of an explosive air/gas mixture in the ambient air. When the valve is opened, it triggers the Zone 2 engine shutdown. The overspeed controller features a reset button. The engine cannot be started again until the overspeed controller is manually reset by pressing this button.

Hydraulic or pneumatic supply connection

The drum(s) are braked by a brake system contracting the brake band around the rim of the winch drum. This brake has two functions: • as a parking brake, to prevent the drum from turning due to downhole forces (weight of tool string and wireline) • as an emergency brake, to rapidly and smoothly halt the drum in the event of an emergency or sudden failure of the unit’s systems The brake is not intended to slow or stop the drum during normal operations.

1.

A spring (inside a hydraulic brake cylinder) is pre-compressed during assembly and retained by the brake cylinder lid.

2.

When pressure is present in the brake pneumatic or hydraulic circuit (BRAKE released), a piston is extended, releasing the brake - this movement compresses the spring. If pressure is lost (BRAKE applied, EMERGENCY OFF pressed or a system failure), the spring will expand, forcing the brake piston back into the cylinder, and applying the brake.

The brake band system is designed to be assisted by the inhole rotation of the drum. The brake is therefore more effective in the inhole than the outhole direction. Double drum winch frames have separate brake system(s) per drum. See the maintenance section of this manual for procedures to test, inspect, adjust and replace the brake band(s).




The brake system is ‘fail-safe’ and works as follows:

Compressed air is supplied to the combined control panel. The compressed air drives a hydraulic pump (represented by on the control panel). The air supply to the hydraulic pump is controlled by a dial regulator (1), which can be set to achieve the desired hydraulic pressure. The hydraulic pump supplies hydraulic pressure to the BOP. The hydraulic pressure supplied by the pump is displayed on a gauge (2). The hydraulic pressure is backed-up by an accumulator (represented by on the panel), which is mounted in the winch unit. This accumulator can be isolated from the system by closing a valve in the winch module. When the hydraulic pump is activated, hydraulic fluid from the oil tank (Figure 5.14) is pumped via the high pressure hoses (Figure 5.14) to the BOP assembly, depending on the setting of hydraulic selector valve (3). To control the BOP, hydraulic selector valve (3) can be set to either OPEN, OFF, or CLOSE. Pressure gauges (4) displays the hydraulic pressure that is present at the BOP assembly in either the open or closed positions.

DANGEROUS MACHINERY Ignoring the instructions in this manual can result in serious injury or death. All personnel that work with this equipment must read and understand this manual. Only qualified personnel are allowed to rig up, rig down, operate, or maintain this equipment.

7.1

Emergency situations The FlyLine has three types of emergency stop: • Manual - when an EMERGENCY STOP button is pushed in. • Manual - when the air intake lever on the control panel is pulled down. This will shut off airflow to the engine. • Automatic - caused by an engine safety system condition (see 7.1.2 below).

7.1.1

Manual emergency stop

7 Operation

The emergency stop buttons are on the power pack and operator controls. In an emergency, push one of these buttons to choke the diesel air inlet and immediately stop the engine. The emergency stop buttons should also be pushed in after the FlyLine has been shut down for maintenance. This will prevent accidental start up of the unit during maintenance. After resolving the emergency situation, perform a pre-start inspection and then restart the unit.

7.1.2

Automatic emergency stop Some engine alarms will automatically shut down the engine. This shutdown procedure is triggered by one of the following: • Low oil pressure • high exhaust temperature • high engine temperature • An engine over speed situation. Excessive engine speed will create increased intake vacuum causing the (air intake) safety valve to trip and cut off the intake air.

7.1.3

Startup after an emergency stop 1.

Ensure that the cause of the emergency shutdown has been solved.

2.

Perform all steps of the normal shut down procedure. See 7.5 Normal shut down on page 104. NOTE: The engine will already be stopped, but this procedure ensures that the system will be in the safest stop situation.

3.

Check/reset all EMERGENCY STOP buttons.

4.

Reset the air intake safety valve.

NOTE: After the engine has come to a complete stop, the air intake valve cannot be immediately opened due to the vacuum created by the engine. Forcing the AIR INLET VALVE open, before the vacuum is relieved, may damage the air intake safety valve. Wait approximately thirty seconds for the vacuum to dissipate.

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE Running the wire inhole at high speed can entangle it in the hole. Never use high drum speeds when going inhole.

WARNING

TXT-10004304/A

EXPLOSION HAZARD An incorrectly adjusted brake band can cause an explosion hazard. When the brake is set to off, the brake band must not rub against the drum, otherwise heat can be generated. Before operating the unit, ensure that the brake band has been correctly adjusted.

CAUTION

TXT-10004385/A

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE Prolonged operation of the unit at pressure levels above the LINE TENSION (SAFETY VALVE) setting (maximum line tension) can overheat the hydraulic oil, damaging the system. If the hydraulic oil temperature reaches +70 °C (+158 °F), remove the load from the unit, and wait for the hydraulic oil to cool down.

Release the BRAKE.

4.

Use the controls to spool the wireline on or off the drum at the desired speed: • The LINE TENSION rotary control knob sets the maximum pressure that can be supplied to the drum, and therefore the maximum wireline tension. At pressures above this setting, the valve will open, releasing the excess pressure. The maximum (+) position will stop the valve from opening at all, allowing maximum torque. Opening the knob (turning towards —) will reduce the pressure level, at which the valve will open, effectively limiting the maximum wireline tension. Opening it all the way will remove all torque. • The right DRUM CONTROL lever controls the direction and the flow of the hydraulic pump. Push the lever forward to spool off wire, pull the lever backwards to spool on wire (the maximum up or down joystick position will generate the biggest flow). For high torque (maximum pull) only, use this lever to Pull OUT OF HOLE (POOH). • The left DRUM CONTROL lever controls the speed and torque obtained from the hydraulic motor. The maximum up or down position will generate the fastest drum speed (greatest hydraulic flow) with the least available torque. These levers can be used in combination with the LINE TENSION and THROTTLE for normal speeds (see section 7.4.1), fast speeds (see section 7.4.2), or for a varying line pull. See section 7.4.3.

5.

During wireline spooling, use the SPOOLING CONTROL steering wheel to move the measuring head left and right on the levelwind shaft to follow the wire off the drum or wind the wire evenly onto the drum.

6.

Continually check the system status: if the engine speed decreases during operations, increase the power output by adjusting the throttle accordingly.

7.

When finished with wireline operations, shut down the system as described in 7.5 Normal shut down on page 104.

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE Prolonged operation of the unit at pressure levels above the LINE TENSION (SAFETY VALVE) setting (maximum line tension) can overheat the hydraulic oil, damaging the system. If the hydraulic oil temperature reaches +70 °C (+158 °F), remove the load from the unit, and wait for the hydraulic oil to cool down.

1.

To reduce the maximum torque of the winch drum, do the following: a) Screw out the LINE TENSION until the drum stops turning. b) Screw in the LINE TENSION until the drum just starts to turn. c) Screw in the LINE TENSION a further half turn. The hydraulic pump will then supply a slightly higher hydraulic pressure than is required, allowing the drum to stop when encountering restrictions or the surface without parting the line or damaging tools.

MAINTENANCE TXT-10004206/A1

8.1

Introduction Only qualified and trained personnel should perform maintenance on Elmar wireline winch units. The maintenance procedures described here include: • Scheduled periodic (e.g. cleaning, inspecting and testing components, filling fluid levels and lubricating moving parts) • Corrective (troubleshooting and repairing any malfunctions, plus calibrating/adjusting) • Exchanging parts (for different operation requirements) The FlyLine can experience extreme forces and rugged conditions, so certain scheduled maintenance is regularly required to prevent damage to the equipment and potential hazards. Inspections and tests should be carried out daily before working with the FlyLine unit, but regular maintenance must be performed according to the number of hours the FlyLine has been run. Running hours should be logged by the FlyLine operator following a strict discipline to ensure maintenance activities are carried out on time (an example running hours log form is provided in the Appendices to this manual). Elmar recommends basing the service intervals on hours of running; you may prefer to use calendar time (weeks, months). Refer to the Appendix ‘Tightening Conventions’ for instructions on tightening nuts and bolts when doing preventive or corrective maintenance.

Certified assemblies Your FlyLine may include assemblies which are certified separately from the complete unit certification (all certificates are included in the Documentation Package for your unit). These assemblies (examples are winch drive motors and power unit transformers) may only be serviced by Elmar service personnel, otherwise the certification (and possibly the warranty) for the complete unit becomes invalid. A certified assembly is identified by its own data plate with serial number, and is listed as a single top-level part number in the drawings and spare parts lists. If a fault is detected in a certified assembly, do not attempt a repair yourself, but always contact Elmar Service for advice (see Contact Us in the appendices).

8.3

OEM components Certain components of your FlyLine are complete assemblies or subsystems supplied by Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) than Elmar. Examples are measuring heads, air conditioning units, motor-generator sets. The routine servicing schedules and instructions for these components are usually not included in this User Manual, but supplied separately in the Documentation Package for your unit. Ensure you can find this supplementary documentation, and make yourself familiar with its contents, particularly the required periodic maintenance schedules for these components.

DANGEROUS MACHINERY A loose or misaligned chain can lead to equipment damage or personal injury. Ensure that the drum drive chain is tensioned correctly.

The brake must stop quickly the drum in a controlled, smooth manner. i.e. without juddering or causing extreme shock to the winch and other equipment. The effect during actual operations will differ, depending on: • The tension and condition of the drum drive chain; 8.9 Check/adjust brake band tension

• The amount of wire on the drum (a fully loaded drum has more momentum); • The weight of the tool string; • The effect of well pressure and resistance on the tool string and wire; • The direction of operation (inhole or outhole); • The speed and torque of the drum (selected gear, engine speed, etc.); • Moisture and oil on the drum rim; • The degree of wear on the brake band lining. The test is conducted in one specific situation. It is recommended to always conduct the test in the same situation and under the same conditions. 1.

If the drum stopped quickly and smoothly at step 7, then the brake has passed the stopping test.



FlyLine User Manual

If the drum did not completely stop, or did not stop smoothly, then the brake needs adjustment. See Section 8.9.2 Adjust Brake band tension. 10. Shut down the unit.

8.9.2

Adjust Brake band tension For correct and safe winch operation the brake band must be correctly tensioned for your drum type as follows: • The drum breaks free of the applied brake when the winch motor is accelerated to a predefined pressure/torque setting (‘pressure’ for a hydraulic driven winch motor; ‘torque’ for an electric driven winch motor) • There is no contact between the brake band and the drum when the brake is released The predefined pressure/torque settings for releasing the brake on your drum type is listed in the FAT - refer to your documentation pack under ‘Quality Documents / Start Up Script / Brake sliphold pressures’ (in older documentation packs - refer to ‘Quality Documents / Hydraulic Fat / Brake System’).

See Figure 8.2 Brake tension on each brake is adjusted at: • The brake adjuster at the connection between the brake cylinder and brake band • Optional on larger drums only: The adjustment turnbuckle at the top rear of the drum ( Each adjuster has two threaded ends, one with left-hand and the other with right-hand threads. A locknut is located on the right-hand thread end of the central hexagon. It must be tightened against the female block of the adjuster on the same side. It is vital to ensure that the male part on each side of each adjuster has sufficient length in the female part to avoid it being pulled out when the brake is applied. The length inside the female part must be a minimum of 1.5x the diameter of the male section. (Applies to points marked ‘X’ in Figure 8.2). Adjust the brake when: • The unit fails one of the brake tests. • The brake bands have been replaced. • The brake assembly has been dismantled and reassembled for any reason. 1.

Prime diesel engine The Caterpillar 4 Cylinder will require priming after every fuel filter change and occasionally if water has been drained from fuel/ water separator, and if the fuel tank has run dry. There are two ways to prime the fuel system. Always try the quick prime (8.37.1) method first. If this is not successful, prime the entire system (8.37.2).

Ensure that the fuel isolation valve (2) above the fuel tank (3) is open and locate the engine fuel primer (1). Figure 8.40 shows the fuel isolation valve in the open position.

3.

Turn the control lever on the fuel safety valve (4) clockwise against the spring pressure until it catches. This will reset the fuel safety system and allow fuel to flow.

HIGH PRESSURE Components and fluids under high pressure may be ejected at great force causing bodily harm and damage to equipment. When working with or near components under pressure: • Prevent access by unauthorized persons. • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).

For spring starter equipped engines go to step 11. For electric, hydraulic and air starter equipped engines proceed as follows:


NOTE: Ensure the battery, accumulator or air supply are sufficiently charged between start attempts. 7.

Attempt to start the engine according to Section 7.3 Power up, causing it to turn over a few times. This will force air out of the injector lines.

8.

When all air has been forced out of the injector lines, and fuel is present, tighten the injector line coupling nuts one at a time and repeat start attempts for each cylinder.

9.

After tightening the last coupling nut, the next start attempt may actually start the engine. In this case allow it to run for a short time and monitor it for indication of rough running.

10. Repeat above steps 7-9 until engine runs smoothly. This will ensure that all injectors are sufficiently bled. For spring starter equipped engines the procedure is slightly different, but the principle is the same. 11. Push the reset knob on the starter. 12. Wind the spring starter for not more than two turns; when there is a noticeable resistance stop cranking. DO NOT crank the starter completely to the white or red stripes. 13. Trip the starter handle as you would to start the engine. Starter pinion should now be engaged to the flywheel, allowing starter to slowly rotate the engine. 14. Use the cranking handle to now slowly turn the engine. If engine does not turn then repeat steps 11-13. 15. Pump the engine fuel primer several times to force fuel through the high-pressure fuel lines; only one fuel line will be engaged at a time. 16. While pumping the fuel primer note which fuel line at the injectors is bleeding fuel and tighten the nut once air-free fuel flows out. 17. Repeat this for each injector in the correct firing order; refer to the CAT engine User Manual for firing order sequence. Typical for four cylinder is 1-3-4-2. 18. After tightening the last coupling nut, push the reset knob on the starter and wind the starter normally for starting the engine. Refer also to Section 7.3 Power up. 19. Start engine and allow it to run for a short time and monitor it for indication of rough running. 20. Repeat above steps 11-19 until engine runs smoothly. This will ensure that all injectors are sufficiently bled.

Replace fuse or circuit breaker Your Elmar equipment may have up to four different types of fuses and circuit breakers to protect the electrical circuits and components from electrical overload. The type of fuse used depends on the specifications of the electrical system. In general, the following rule applies: • 12-24 volt: blade type fuses (typical automotive fuse) • 110-240 volt: cartridge fuses (glass) and circuit breakers • 380 volt and higher 3-phase: mesh type fuses, cartridge fuses and circuit breakers The fuses are marked with an identification number that corresponds to the "F" number stated on the electrical diagrams in the Documentation Package. The description on the diagram states the trip level in amperes.

Appendix 7: Tightening conventions TXT-10004458/A1

This section provides recommended torque to be applied to bolted connections in this unit. The fasteners used in this unit are normally either stainless steel (quality A2/70) or plain high tensile steel (quality 8.8 or better). These values are for dry (non lubricated) connections. Use lower torque values for lubricated connections. NOTE: Always apply anti-seize compound on all types of bolts. This prevents bolts from seizing caused by corrosion around the bolts. The corrosion may cause the force necessary to loosen these bolts to exceed their breaking strength, leading to broken bolts.

Appendix 7: Tightening conventions

NOTE: When tightening a cover panel with a soft joint seal or gasket, e.g. for a tank inspection opening, use lower torques than specified in the table below.

Appendix 8: Running hours log book TXT-10004509/A

Like all machinery, the FlyLine needs to be serviced at regular intervals. The work to be performed at each interval is described in more detail in the Maintenance section of this manual. The specific service intervals are: • Daily (once every 24 hours when the FlyLine is in use) • After job maintenance (after completion of each wireline job) • 300-hour service (after 300 hours of wireline winch operation) • 600-hour service • 900-hour service • 1200-hour service • 1500-hour or annual service

It is also important to record the number of hours and the date at which each of the services (100, 300, etc.) is actually carried out. To make this easier, Elmar provides with this manual (see page 252) a blank form for recording the running hours, and the interval-based services planned and actually carried out. NOTE: Every organization has its own rules and systems for logging running hours and service activity. The form and procedures described here are no more than a suggestion for a simple running hours and service logging system. Because the service intervals are primarily aimed at the mechanical components, we recommend logging all hours that mechanical components are in use. In other words, from the moment the FlyLine enters stand-by prior to operations, to the moment the FlyLine is shut down. NOTE: If the running hours for major subsystems of the FlyLine are different (e.g. the power pack or engine are run for longer hours than the winch module), then log the usage hours for each subsystem on separate forms, so that the service is carried out no earlier than needed on the less-used subsystem. Keep all log forms in a special folder, and make sure that the maintenance engineer knows where to find this folder. Make sure that the lower section is properly filled-in whenever the UniTruck gets an interval service (100, 300, etc… hours). The figure on page 250 shows a filled-in Elmar usage & service log form, for a wireline unit that has already been running for 1823 hours before this sheet was opened. The hours have been carried forward from the previous form.



Appendix 8: Running hours log book

Even if there is automatic logging of the number of hours the FlyLine is in operation, it is still important to manually record all hours that the wireline winch is "running".

Please refer to the maintenance instructions accompanying your product for specific instructions on how to drain the fluid from each reservoir, system or component. On the reverse side of this page, NOV Elmar provides a checklist as an aid to ensuring that no part is overlooked when draining and refilling the machine. Draining: 1.

Check off each item as it is drained, adding your initials.

2.

Strike-out the items that are NOT present on the machine.

3.

Add any items that are present on the machine, but not on this list.

4.

Place this checklist in a prominent place on the machine (e.g. in the cabin, in a weatherproof envelope attached to the main operator station, etc.)

Refilling: Refer to the maintenance instructions or specifications pages of the manual for this machine, for the quantity and specifications of the required fluids.

6.

Refer to the maintenance instructions for the procedure to check and replenish fluids for each of the reservoirs, systems and components.
