Study Notes
Pre-Operation Checks
- The recommended depth of the pit should be 3-4 times the tool diameter.
- To prevent the service line from twisting during operation, the hoses should be twisted in a clockwise direction.
Tool Maintenance
- After a long storage period, 1-2 ounces of Hammerhead Mole oil should be used to pre-lube the tool.
- The tool supply hose should also be pre-lubed with 1-2 ounces of Hammerhead Mole oil.
Connection and Setup
- After all connections are made, the system should be pressure-tested.
- When partially opening the Euler valve, be careful not to lose the valve stem.
Drop Removal and Installation
- A wrench should be used to undo the bond clamp and remove the drop.
- After removing the drop, the old smoke tube should be disposed of.
- To secure the smoke tube in place, the new drop should be run through the old smoke tube.
- The purpose of running the new drop through the old smoke tube is to ensure proper installation and securement.
