Water well drilling rig special maintenance focuses on five major
components:
-
Hydraulic system:
Replace return oil filter every 50 hours to prevent ice chip blockage.
-
Power system:
Check antifreeze freezing point daily (must be 10°C lower than ambient temperature).
-
Drilling tool system:
Apply antifreeze lubricating grease (drop point ≥150°C) after use.
-
Electrical system:
Test cable insulation resistance weekly (must be >10MΩ).
-
Cooling system:
Let the engine idle for 10 minutes before shutdown to prevent thermal stress cracking.
