How it works- Simple 7 step procedure
Step 1:
Dig trenches on either side of the road up to desired depth, one trench to
accommodate the machine and the other for come-out hole.
Come out hole
Trench for machine
Step 2:
Lower the machine into the trench and attach the first Drill Rod and Pilot Bit at the
end. Attach the water hose and start engine. Start moving the machine forward.
Step 3:
As each joint of Drill Rod is pushed into the ground a new one is added behind.
Step 3: (Contd..)
Keep on adding Drill Rods until the Pilot Bit reaches the come-out hole.
Step 4:
Remove the Pilot Bit and screw on the Backreamer
Step 5:
Start moving the machine backwards and start removing the Drill Rods as it becomes
completely exposed (at machine end)
Step 6:
Once the Backreamer reaches the start point cleanup the hole with a Pull-plate (if
required).
Step 7:
Slide in the pipe while the hole is still lubricated with slush
Note: The above steps are for illustration purpose only. Please read the user manual and safety instructions (supplied with the machine) before operating.
