General

If cracks, excessive wear etc. are recognised, contact Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorised service company.Weldings of the castings should be done by Blohm + Voss Oil Tools only or an authorised service company in accordance to Blohm+Voss welding procedures.A regular preventative maintenance program should be established for all elevators. These written maintenance procedures should be given to the crew or maintenance personnel.

Grease daily

All greasing points which are labelled "Grease daily" must be greased at least once a day. It can be necessary to carry this out more often depending on use.

Grease points

1. Grease nipple for hinge pin2. Spring for locking mechanism

Grease quality

In order to achieve efficient greasing even at different environmental temperatures, we recommend the following grease types should be used (obtainable from Blohm + Voss Oil Tools): • Low-Viscosity grease• Type AVIATICON Grease XRF NGL10

Alternatively; • Use EP1 gear lubricating grease for

greasing ”non-oil tight gear trains” when temp. < 0°C/32°F.

• Use EP2 when temp. > 0°C/32°F.

Daily Inspection Procedures

Maintenance

1. Keep clean.2. Grease swivel suspension contact surfaces, latch and bore seat surface.3. Lubricate hinge pin and latch mechanism.4. Remove any rust and weather protect as required.5. Check and secure pins and fasteners.

18 degrees Shoulder Elevators

18 degrees shoulder elevators in heavy use will wear under the repeated loads of the drilling operation. The shoulders gradually become rounded and offer less supporting area. If this peening of the elevator load - bearing surface is allowed to continue unchecked long enough, the bore will be reduced by the gradual flow of metal until the elevator is difficult to close and lock around pipe. Worn or damaged shoulder surfaces of elevators are easily corrected by properly machining these surfaces.

At the same time the worn surface of both, the tool joint and the elevator may contact on a slight taper which could cause extreme opening forces within the elevator. That this condition could exist is admittedly rare, but indifference to wear could allow it to happen, and the result could be a bad accident. Worn or damaged square shoulder surfaces of elevators are easily corrected by properly machining these surfaces.Inspect the collars for squareness, and uniformity and depth of wear. Uneven wear or worn recesses of 1/16 inch (1,6 mm) or more requires refacing of collar surface. Hinge Pins and springs should be carefully inspected visually for excess wear and obvious weakness.

Locking of screws

All Screws are normally secured by a mechanical bolt lock or with a safety wire. All other screws are secured by metal adhesive (Locktite).

Category I

This category involves observing the equipment during operation for indications of inadequate performance.When in use, equipment shall be visually inspected on a daily basis for cracks, loose fits or connections, elongation of part, and other signs of wear, corrosion or overloading. Any parts found to show cracks, excessive wear, etc., shall be removed from service for further examination.The equipment shall be visually inspected by a person knowledgeable in that equipment and its function.

Category II

This is Category I inspection plus further inspection for corrosion, deformation, loose or missing components, deterioration, proper lubrication, visible external cracks, and adjustment. Category II may involve some disassembly to access specific components and to identify wear that exceeds the allowable tolerances.

Category III

This is Category II inspection plus further inspection, which should include NDT of critical areas and may involve some disassembly to access specific components and to identify wear that exceeds the allowable tolerances.Prior to inspection, all foreign material such as dirt, paint, grease, oil, scale, etc. shall be removed from the concerned parts by a suitable method (e.g. paint-stripping, steam-cleaning, grit-blasting).

Category IV

This is Category III inspection plus further inspection for which the equipment is disassembled to the extent necessary to conduct NDT of all primary-load-carrying components.Equipment shall be:• disassembled in a suitable-

equipped facility to the extent necessary to permit full

inspection of all primary-load-carrying components and other components that are critical to the equipment.

• inspected for excessive wear, cracks, flaws and deformation.

Procedure:• Corrections shall be made

in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

• Prior to inspection, all foreign material such as dirt, paint, grease, oil, scale, etc. shall be removed from the concerned parts by a suitable method (e.g. paint-stripping, steam-cleaning, grit-blasting).

Periodic inspection

The recommended schedule for inspection of all kind of • Elevators:Ongoing IDaily: II6 Monthly: III1 Year: IV

The recommended frequencies apply for equipment in use during the specified period.

The inspection frequencies are only recommendations. The schedule of inspection heavily depends on the following factors:• environment• load cycles• regulatory requirements• operating time• testing• repairs• re manufacture

Non-periodic inspection

A complete, on-job, shut-down inspection equivalent to the periodical Category III or Category IV should be made before (if anticipated) and after critical jobs (e.g., running heavy casing / drill strings, jarring, pulling on stuck pipes and/or operating at extreme low temperatures) <-20° C (<-4° F).

Inspection

A thorough inspection should be carried out periodically (every 3 months) or as special circumstances may require. Before starting an inspection disconnect hydraulic system and remove all foreign materials (dirt, paint, grease Oil, scale, etc.) from surface by a suitable method. After a field inspection, it is advisable to record the extent of testing and testing results. Conduct the periodic or critical load inspection in the field by the crew with the supervisor. If cracks, excessive wear etc. is recognized, contact Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorized service

company.

Critical Load Inspection

Critical loads may occur. For example: impact loads such as jarring, pulling on stuck pipe, etc. If critical loads occurred unexpectedly, conduct the inspection immediately.

Dismantling Inspection

Generally, when the equipment returns to base, warehouse, etc. Carry out the Tool inspection, immediately. Furthermore, control it prior to its being sent on the next job. • The Tool should be dismantled and

inspected in a suitably equipped facility for excessive wear, cracks, flaws or deformations.

• Corrections should be made in accordance with recommendations which can be obtained from Blohm + Voss Oil Tools.

• Weldings at the castings should be done only by Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorized service company in according to Blohm+Voss welding procedure.

• When need is shown in a field inspection, dismantle the Tool and arrange an inspection in a suitably equipped facility.

• Springs should be carefully visually inspected for excessive wear and obvious weakness.

In all event where the elevator doesn't function as expected, carry out the following checks to identify the cause of the problem.1. Check if all hinge pins are straight.2. Check for excessive clearance in the elevator; use wear data criteria for checking3. Check for deformation of parts4. Ensure all parts are present.If any failure of any part is detected, remove the elevator from service and have it repaired.

Measuring of Wear

Hinge pins, latch pins and socket holes are not normally measured for wear in the field. When it becomes apparent that the hinge or latch pins are loosing the elevator should be dismantled for general engineering check up.

For square shoulder elevators a rule marked in sixteenth of an inch as adequate. The straight edge of a rule is used to check the squareness of the top bore and the end of a rule is inserted into the worn pockets and ridges. Wear of 1/16 inch (1,6 mm) or more should require refacing of collar surface.
