Observance of the instructions and tips will increase the service life and availability of the machine. You will also be able to carry out the transport work quicker and more safely. Careful attention to the points in this chapter will help you to simplify your day-to-day work.

Storage corrosion protection

Components coated with temporary corrosion inhibitor are protected for approximately six months.

Before delivery, the hydraulically operated equipment is operated and all gear boxes, hydraulic oil tank, etc. are filled to their maximum fill point.

© DBT AMERICA 2005

Storage of the machine and spare parts no direct exposure to sunlight Store the equipment indoors or cover with a tarpaulin to protect against

direct exposure to sunlight. Store the electrical equipment, electronic components, spare parts of rubber or plastic – such as seals and hoses – and hydraulic fluids only in closed rooms at temperatures of 60° F (15° C) to 77° F (25°C).

Protect the equipment and all spare parts stored outdoors against moisture and dirt, e.g. using tarpaulins.

The mounting surfaces of hydraulic components must be protected against corrosion and sealed with blind plates. Protect the hydraulic plug connectors and the connectors of the electrical cables with the caps and plugs supplied.

short-term storage

During short-term storage (approximately 4 weeks) of equipment outdoors, but at temperatures above freezing, electrical components need not be removed. Such components must be particularly protected against excessive temperatures, dirt and moisture.

long-term storage

If the equipment is to be stored more than six months, the hydraulic components must be completely filled with a corrosion inhibiting/frostproofing fluid such e.g. CV 50.

Fill the hollow areas of hydraulic components (e.g. the piston chambers) in horizontal position (ports facing upwards) until they start to overflow.

Then seal the ports with plastic or steel plugs.

The equipment must be stored in a well ventilated, dry room. Do not store outdoors.

Storage and transport plastic deformation

random sample inspection

natural aging

HFA fluids

In order to prevent plastic deformation of the seal elements, cylinders must be stored in an upright position. Some cylinders must be removed so that they can be stored upright.

After a storage period of approximately two years, a random sample inspection must be performed to determine whether the measures taken and the method of storage has prevented damage.

On request, the inspection can be carried out by DBT America.

Even with proper storage, seals and hoses are subject to natural ageing. Do not use these parts if they have been stored for more than two years.

Instructions on the storage of concentrates for hydraulic fluids can be found, if required, in chapter 6 in this operating manual.

Take care to insure that new supplies are stored separately from existing stock and that removal takes place on the “first in, first out” principle.

be performed without prior written approval from DBT America. Warning, operations, and maintenance instruction plates, tags, or decals must be changed accordingly.

The hydraulic system should be regularly inspected and maintained in conformance with accepted practices. Cylinders, valves, and other similar parts should be checked to ensure that “drift” has not developed to the extent that it could create a hazard.

Motors, controllers, switches, protective devices, electrical conductors, and connections should be inspected and maintained in conformance with accepted practices and applicable regulations. Special attention should be paid to the condition of electrical insulation.

The miner should be kept as clean as possible to minimize fire hazards and to help in the detection of loose or defective parts.

Care should be taken to ensure that all replacement parts are interchangeable with the original parts and are of quality equal to that provided in the original equipment.

When performing maintenance, do not wear rings, watches, loose shirt sleeves, worn or tattered gloves, loose jackets, neck ties, or other apparel that could become entangled in the miner.

Always wear the proper, approved safety clothing.

Maintenance personnel must know how to properly operate the miner in order to perform test and inspection procedures.

The miner must be maintained in “Permissible” condition, where applicable.

When working on or operating a miner from the Operator’s Platform area, do not reach out of the cab with your foot.

Never touch a rotating or moving assembly or component.

Be careful to avoid pinch points while operating or maintaining the miner.

Be careful when working around high-pressure hydraulics. The high-pressure jet of fluid from a pinhole leak in a hydraulic hose can penetrate through skin and into the tissue below, causing serious problems such as blood poisoning.

Installation ___________________________________________________ superbolt installation and specifications tightening procedures

¢ ¢ ¢ ¢

Thread Diameter 1 1/4” Jackbolt Diameter 5/16” Jackbolt Socket Size 1/4” Required Jackbolt Torque 35 (in./lb.)

Read all these instructions completely before you begin.

This procedure is typical for the majority of SUPERBOLT products.

Specific installation procedures that are shipped with all products may supersede this general procedure. Use the appropriate instructions shipped with the product you are installing. Contact SUPERBOLT, Inc. at (412) 279-1149 with any questions.

1. SUPERBOLT products are designed for use with hardened surface washers.

Slide the washer onto the bolt or stud first.

2. VIEW A - Check the base of the tensioner(s) and verify that all jackbolts are flush with the bottom of the tennsioner body.

3. VIEW A - Clear any dirt or chips from the threads of the bolt or stud and from the main internal thread of the tensioner 4. VIEW A - Spin the tensioner body down on the main thread of the bolt or stud by hand. The tensioner body should be in light contact with the hardened washer.

5. Determine the target jackbolt torque value for the desired preload, either from the installation sheets shipped with the product or the catalog tables, or by calling SUPERBOLT, Inc. The jackbolt torque value stamped on the tensioner is a standard value for that part, and may not be appropriate for your specific application. Since jackbolt torque is directly proportional to the tension load, you can easily figure other values as required (e.g., 1/2 preload = 1/2 jackbolt torque).

________________________________________________________________ 4.12 VUVR / 03___ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER ©

© DBT AMERICA 2005

IMPORTANT

Air or electric power wrenches of the appropriate size may be used for running up jackbolts. Attempt to tighten as consistently as possible and remove the power wrench frequently; do not tighten all at once. Use a standard torque wrench to verify final torque values.

BI619026

_________________________________________________ Installation 6. Start by snugging the jackbolts to 10% of the target jackbolt torque value from step 5. This seats the thread and eliminates clearances. The star pattern shown in VIEW B should be used for this initial tightening sequence.

7. VIEW B - Tighten the jackbolts in the star pattern to 50% of the target jackbolt torque value.

8. VIEW C - Change to a circular pattern and torque the jackbolts to 75% of the target jackbolt value.

9. VIEW C - Continue one more pass in the above circular pattern with 10% more torque than that of the target jackbolt torque value.

10. VIEW C - Long bolts will stretch, so by the time you get back to the first jackbolt, it will be loose again.

11. VIEW C - Set the torque wrench for the final torque value and continue to repeat the circular pattern until all jackbolts are torqued to the same value. do not exceed the torque value stamped on the tensioner without specific approval from SUPERBOLT, Inc.

© DBT AMERICA 2005

loosening procedures

Jackbolts should be loosened with care. For longer bolts and studs, this procedure is even more important. Loosening can be accomplished quickly, but do not rush to completely loosen individual jackbolts. Remember that the intent is to slowly release the preload force. All jackbolts should be loosened uniformly, and usually there is no need to remove any jackbolt from the tensioner body during loosening.

1. Turn the first jackbolt counter-clockwise until it feels loose (no more than one half turn). The idea is just to unload each jackbolt, not to completely loosen it.

2. Move in a circular pattern to the next jackbolt and repeat step 1.

3. Continue repeating until all jackbolts have been unloaded.

4. By the time you get back to the first jackbolt, it will be tight again. Repeat the process moving in a circular pattern.

5. Usually after two or three passes, the tensioner can be spun off the bolt or stud by hand. Long bolts or studs that stretch more may require extra passes.

BI619026

Installation ___________________________________________________ 6. Before reusing any tensioner, the jackbolts should be removed in the appropriate manner. The body and jackbolts should be cleaned and re-lubricated with SUPERBOLT approved lubricant to ensure proper jackbolt torque vs. preload performance upon reinstallation.

lubricants

The torque-preload relationship of SUPERBOLT tensioners depends on the tension body and jackbolt materials, heat treatment, plating, lubricants and many other factors. SUPERBOLT engineers have performed extensive tests to determine the best lubricants for the various materials utilized by SUPERBOLT, Inc. Two custom lubricants, JL-G and JL-M, are offered by SUPERBOLT, Inc.

prime mineral oil. It has a relatively uniform friction factor of 0.130 under widely varying conditions. JL-G is used in the assembly of most SUPERBOLT products. ¢ A number of commercially available graphite - or nickel - based lubricant compounds such as Fel-Pro C102 or Fel-Pro N5000 can be used for re-lubrication in the field. Copper bearing compounds have not performed well as jackbolt lubricants.

JL-M is a lubricant paste made from molybdenum-disulifide powder and pure mineral oil. It has a friction factor of 0.045 to 0.070. Tests have shown that when jackbolts are tightened the first time, the friction of JL-M is approximately 0.070. Each subsequent tightening reduces the friction factor lower until at the fourth tightening it levels out at approximately 0.050. SUPERBOLT, Inc. uses an average friction factor of 0.055 for torque calculations. It must be emphasized that the tensioners must be tightened several times to stabilize at the low values. After many repeat tightenings, the friction factor can be as low as 0.045. Due to these variations in friction factor, molybased lubricants are used instead of graphite-based lubricants only in the following cases.

¢ JL-G is a lubricant paste made from selected flaky graphite and

BI619026

_________________________________________________ Installation 1. On very large jackbolts when the torque required for a specific preload would be too high; or, 2. Where space restrictions prohibit the use of sufficiently large torque wrenches.

In some cases, SUPERBOLT tensioners are “broken in” at the factory to lower the friction factor for field installation.

© DBT AMERICA 2005

Fel-Pro C-870 molybdenum-disulfide paste has performed similarly to JL-M. Other molybdenum pastes and greases tested had much high friction factors. Testing for friction factor is recommended for all critical installations where lubricant and/or bolt and nut materials are unknown.

Operation ____________________________________________________ scrubber system See figure—47

The Dash Series Miners have an optional dust scrubber system. The scrubber systems are designed for each of the different size miners.

However, the basic operation is the same: A fan motor is mounted on the miner connected by duct work to intakes close to the cutter drum. The fan creates a vacuum in the duct work which pulls the dusty air from the face. The air passes through a filter which is being sprayed by water to “scrub” the dust from the air. The air next passes through a mist eliminator to remove the water from the air. After the dry air passes through the fan it is exhausted to the rear of the miner. The dirty water from the screen filter runs down into a sump where the water is pumped out onto the conveyor.

The scrubber system must perform as designed. The maintenance of the scrubber system is very important.

Maintenance - At least once per production shift: 1. Clean filter screen 2. Flush out inlet duck work using access covers 3. Clean mist eliminator and sump Extremely dusty conditions will require more frequent cleaning.

Keep the fan motor in good running condition. Grease the fan motor every eighty shifts with high temperature lubricant.

The scrubber system performance specifications are given in the parts catalog furnished with each miner.

________________________________________________________________ 5.44 VUVR / 03___ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER ©

The scrubber system helps clear the face so the miner operator can better see. The system is part of the ventilation system; it is used with both blowing and exhaust methods of face ventilation. Refer to the mine ventilation plans for proper scrubber application.

Operation ____________________________________________________ power schematic See figures 50, 51, 52, 56, 57 & 58

NOTICE

The Dash Series continuous miners all have the same basic electrical systems. Radio remote control is the standard method of operation.

The Electrical Schematic used in this manual to describe the various circuits is typical for a Dash Series miner; however, each individual miner may be different; always use the schematic in the miner’s parts catalog when troubleshooting.

In addition to the magnetic or fault trip, CB-1 also has a shunt trip.

When the shunt trip coil is energized it trips the breaker. This is used for radio E-Stop. CB-2 has an auxiliary contact, which, is connected in the control circuit and requires CB-2 to be closed as well as CB-1 to operate any of the motors.

NOTICE

Instead of a shunt trip coil tripping the main circuit breaker, some miners use a relay, OE, controlled by the radio E-Stop which has a normally closed contact in the ground wire monitoring circuit and trips the out-by circuit breaker.

Motor Overloads All of the motors have thermal overloads relays. They are designated OL-2, OL-4, OL6, OL-8, OL-10, OL-11, OL-12, and OL-13. They are bimetallic type, ambient compensated, monitoring motor currents in all three phases. The cutter motors units, OL-2 and OL-4 are driven by current transformers, CTs. Using CTs allow smaller current size overload relays to be used. The thermal overload relays have normally closed contacts wired in the control circuit, which open on a overload and stop the motor(s). The contacts will automatically reset after the thermal overload cools down. If another overload occurs right away then the overload relay will trip faster and the time to reset will be longer.

________________________________________________________________ 5.46 VUVR / 03___ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER ©

© DBT AMERICA 2005

Three phase power is connected to the miner through the Main Circuit Breaker (CB-1). When the main circuit breaker is open all power is off.

CB-1 has a magnetic trip unit to provide short circuit protection. This is too high to protect the smaller power cables so an Auxiliary Circuit Breaker (CB-2) with a lower magnetic trip setting is used. As an option, CB-1’s and CB-2’s operating handles are mechanically connected; they are operated together by a hydraulic cylinder remotely controlled.

However, each circuit breakers can “trip” independently.

BI619026

__________________________________________________ Operation The cutter motors and the gathering head / conveyor motors are subject to starting under load, jam ups, and stalls.

Instantaneous overloads are used to detect those conditions and stop the motors. They are designated OL-1, OL-3, OL5, and OL-7.

While called “instantaneous” overloads the current sensing relays have an adjustable start-up delay after which they operate as soon as the motor current exceeds the preset level. The instantaneous overloads have normally open contacts in the motors’ control circuit which close when controlled voltage is applied. The instantaneous overloads protect the motors from stall currents and also help teach the miner operator how far he can “push” the miner for best production.

© DBT AMERICA 2005

Motor Control The two DC tram motors each have an SCR drive with solid state reversing. The schematic shows a circuit breaker, CB-T, for over current protection. Some miners may have fuses instead of the circuit breaker.

All of the Dash Series miners have a power transformer to reduce the three phase voltage to the SCR drives.

See figure—67

All of the motor contactors are vacuum type except for the scrubber fan motor, contactor E, which is a standard contactor. The pump motor contactor, F, also connects power to the tram. The gathering head / conveyor motors have forward and reverse contactors, CF and CR.

Cutter Motor Feedback The miner operator has control over the tram speed when the cutter motors are not running. The Dash Series miners have a feedback circuit from the cutter motors to the tram motors so that when the cutter motors are running the maximum forward tram speed is determined by the load on the cutter motors. This is accomplished by monitoring the phase current for one of the cutter motors and feeding this current level to the tram control circuit. The amount of phase current on a cutter motor is a measure of the load on the motor. When the current is low then the cutting work is low like during a place clean up and when the current is high then the cutting work is high like sumping into the face.

______________________________________________________________ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER © VUVR / 03 5.47

BI619026

Operation ____________________________________________________ By preventing a too fast sump speed the cutter motors will not stall and the crawlers will not break traction and spin. This feedback signal is from current transformer CT-3. Some miners may also have an external Feed Back switch, as shown, to allow easy adjustment of the feedback signal to accommodate various mine conditions, See CUTTER MOTOR FEEDBACK ADJUSTMENT.

control schematic See figure—53

Radio / Manual The Dash Series miners are radio remote control. Manual operation is not allowed for production operation unless the miner has an operator’s pit and canopy. Manual operation is for troubleshooting and maintenance under roof support.

Switch SW1 sections 1-2 and 5-6 selects 120v power to be connected to either, the manual push buttons or to the radio receiver. Section 7-8 of SW1 connects +24v power from the radio receiver power supply when in “radio”. SW1 removes manual control from the tram interface when radio control is selected.

SW2 connects motor control to the manual push buttons and isolates control from the radio receiver as shown. In the radio position SW2 isolates the push buttons and connects motor control to the radio receiver The Light Switch has three positions: manual, off, and radio. In the radio position the miner operator can turn the head lights on and off from the radio transmitter by controlling the HR relay.

tram dead man See figure—54

If there is an operator’s pit, the tram “deadman” is a foot operated control switch, which, must be held closed. This switch is on all the Dash Series miners and it is still called the foot switch even though it is a hand-operated push button on the operator’s control panel for miners without an operator’s pit.

________________________________________________________________ 5.48 VUVR / 03___ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER ©

© DBT AMERICA 2005

The operating controls are available either in radio remote control or in manual control. The control mode is selected by using three switches.

BI619026

__________________________________________________ Operation Methane Monitor The methane monitor circuit will alert the miner operator via a signal light if methane gas is detected. If the methane level becomes high, the MMR contacts will open and shut down the miner, including area & headlights. There are several suppliers of methane monitors; refer to the parts book for complete wiring and to the monitor manufacturer’s manual for service information.

Low Oil Level The hydraulic tank float switch will energize the LOR relay and turn on the LOL signal light if the oil level becomes too low.

© DBT AMERICA 2005

e-stop bypass See figure—55

E - Stop Bypass The E-Stop Bypass circuit allows the operator, when using radio remote control, to bypass the emergency stop palm switch located on the left side of the miner for about 30 seconds. This is useful in cases where the miner has become jammed against a rib causing the normally closed E-Stop switch to be stuck open. The ESB relay contacts bypass the emergency stop push button.

Battery Back-up The radio receiver power supply has an optional battery back-up which provides control power to operate the solenoids for fire suppression and power to operate the shunt trip coil of the main circuit breaker. The battery back-up in conjunction with a hydraulic accumulator will allow control of those functions in the case of a power outage.

Scrubber Fan The manual start push button for the scrubber fan motor contactor, E, does not have a holding circuit. Therefore, when in manual control the fan motor and the scrubber spray will only operate as long as the push button is held. There is no manual stop push button.

For miners with an operator’s pit and canopy, there is a holding circuit for the scrubber fan motor contactor. The fan motor stops, after a short time delay, when the cutter motors are stopped.

______________________________________________________________ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER © VUVR / 03 5.49

BI619026

Operation ____________________________________________________ cutter motor feedback adjustment See figure—59

The tram motor speed voltages are limited in the forward direction when the cutter motors are running. How much the tram speed is limited is controlled by the load on the cutter motors. When the load is light as in a clean-up operation the tram speed is less limited that when there is high cutter motor loading as in a sumping operation.

The cutter motor loading is monitored by using a current transformer, CT3, in a phase lead.

This cutter motor feedback is connected to the tram interface to control the tram motor speed voltages. The “clean-up” and “sump” tram voltages are factory set. It may be necessary to adjust these voltages to suit the actual mining conditions.

DBT America has a current generator, which can be used to simulate the secondary current in the feedback current transformer, CT3. The current generator needs to be connected to 120 vac. This can be tapped at terminal numbers 14 and 79 on the tram interface terminal strip.

Remove the feedback wires number 196 and 197 from the tram interface terminal strip and connect the output of the current generator (flat cable) to the tram interface terminals 196 and 197. Be sure the power switch is off and the adjustable dial is set at zero.

System Overview The radio remote control system consists of a battery powered portable transmitter, which, sends UHF radio signals to the miner. The encoded control signals, from the transmitter, are decoded by the radio receiver unit located in the main controller case. The transmitter has a built-in antenna while the receiver, located in the explosion proof main controller, has a external antenna.

See figure—69

Receiver , Power Supply, and Module Traction Case The receiver responds to the control signals from the transmitter and activates the machine functions. The radio receiver power supply provides 110 VDC for the solenoids to control the hydraulic valves and 24 VDC for the radio traction module which provides tram direction and speed radio signals to the tram interface. Receiver outputs also control the 120 vac machine circuits.

An optional battery back-up to the power supply will provide power to operate the fire suppression solenoid and the E-Stop in case of a power outage.

__________________________________________________ Operation See figure—63

Diagnostic Display The radio system has a diagnostic display on the miner in an explosion proof enclosure, which, can be seen at the right rear of the miner. This display comes in very handy for troubleshooting. Refer to the separate radio manual for complete use of the diagnostic display.

See figures—64 & 65

Transmitter The radio transmitter has a rechargeable battery, which has a recharge socket for connection to the out-by battery charger. The complete transmitter unit is changed out each shift. The transmitter panel has switches or “keys” for all of the miner functions.

Battery Charger

© DBT AMERICA 2005

See figure—66 The complete system includes a battery charger which is used to recharge the transmitter battery. This unit is usually located above ground. Four transmitter units can be recharged at the same time. A built-in radio receiver and screen will allow the transmitter to be tested before use underground.

PERMISSIBILITY The Dash Series Miners for use in the United States are designed and built to be MSHA (Mine Safety and Health Administration) “Permissible”, that is, the electrical system uses MSHA certified explosion proof enclosures and MSHA approved intrinsically safe circuits.

All of the electrical circuit components are located within explosion proof enclosures except - the radio remote control transmitter, the radio receiving antenna, the manual tram control switches, the low oil level float switch, and the methane monitor.

A permissible explosion proof enclosure will prevent an explosion inside the enclosure from causing ignition of a methane-air atmosphere or a coal dust layer outside the enclosure.

______________________________________________________________ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER © VUVR / 03 5.53

BI619026

Operation ____________________________________________________ The electrical circuit components not located within an explosion proof enclosure are intrinsically safe circuits.

A permissible intrinsically safe circuit (ISC) is incapable of producing a spark or thermal effect, under the approval criteria, which would cause an ignition of a methane-air atmosphere or a coal dust layer.

Insuring the miner is “PERMISSIBLE” and safe is the most important maintenance job.

Operating equipment must be maintained by a “Qualified Person” as defined in Part 75, Title 30, of the Federal Code of Regulations.

TROUBLESHOOTING

DANGER

DBT America’s electrical drawings supplied with each miner’s parts book include a circuit schematic along with a wiring diagram. These two drawings types compliment each other. Use the schematic to understand how the circuit works while using the wiring diagram to locate the wired devices and components.

Dual Systems

Take advantage of the miner’s “dual” systems - two cutter head motors, two conveyor / gathering head motors, and two tram motors.

Remember the two cutter head motors and the two gathering head motors share their common loads. The “hot” motor may not be the problem but is simply doing more than its share of the work. The left and right tram drives and motors are independent when the tracks are off of the ground. But when tramming there is a certain amount of sharing since they are moving the same load.

Take and note ammeter readings and voltmeter readings when there are no problems for comparison later when there is a problem.

________________________________________________________________ 5.54 VUVR / 03___ DBT – 25M SERIES CONTINUOUS MINER ©

© DBT AMERICA 2005

Only qualified technicians should troubleshoot the electrical systems. Touching or shorting energized components can cause serious injury or death.

BI619026

__________________________________________________ Operation Of course the dual control modes, manual and radio remote, will allow you to quickly close in on a problem area. For example if you can raise the conveyor tail assembly manually but not by radio then the problem is not the conveyor lift cylinder or the main hydraulic valve. The problem is either in the radio system or in the hydraulic pilot control such as the solenoid control valve.

Diagnostic Display Use the radio system diagnostic display at the right rear of the miner to check out the operation of the radio system and review stored fault messages
