What Precautions Should Be Taken When Using A Rotary Drilling Rig During Rain?

As summer approaches and rainfall increases, what precautions should be taken with rotary drilling rigs during rainy weather? Northern Foundation Rental, a rotary drilling rig manufacturer, will provide a detailed explanation.#concrete drill#

**I. Timely Cleaning**

In case of heavy rain, clean the rig immediately.

**II. Chassis Care: How Should Rotary Drilling Rig Apprentices Clean Their Rigs in Rainy Weather?**

The chassis is closest to the ground and is particularly vulnerable to road conditions. This part is more prone to rust, and the wheel housings may loosen or develop holes. Therefore, it is essential to pay attention to the cleaning and anti-corrosion treatment of the rotary drilling rig chassis, and to ensure proper rust prevention.

III. Paint

The acidic substances in rainwater have a strong abrasive effect on the paint of rotary drilling rigs, damaging it over time. Therefore, it is recommended to repaint the rotary drilling rig in winter. The simplest method is waxing. For longer-lasting results, a sealant glaze is more effective. Regardless of the method, an invisible protective layer will be applied to the rotary drilling rig to prevent fading and aging of the paint.

IV. Ignition and Starting#concrete drill#

On rainy days, if you encounter difficulties starting the engine, sometimes it may seem weak even when you don't try. The most likely reason is that moisture has caused a short circuit in the ignition system, resulting in a loss of normal ignition function.

If you find that the intake manifold is degraded due to tire pressure in the ignition system, the engine's characteristics will often be weakened. It is recommended to wipe the wiring harness inside and outside the switchboard with a dry towel or cloth, and then spray desiccant with a special desiccant spray can. Apply desiccant to the switchboard cover, battery connector, wire connectors, high-voltage wires, etc. After a period of time, the engine may start.
