The main idea is to educate people who are interested or new to the mining/tunneling industry. Tutorials and walkthroughs with many different mining jobs, or just being able to see what actually goes on underground. Many mining terms are almost a foreign language to someone who has never seen or experienced underground life.
Even if you are experienced I hope to be able to provide some tricks of the trade that we can all use to help make our jobs better. My work motto is - Safely .Quality. Efficiency in that order.
used to use grade poles set by survey. front a back site then 5 feet down, shine light through steel washers. that was the 5 foot mark simple and fast as long as everyone on the same
You'd think that things were the same all round but your bag is different from the DAMOS stuff we use in Western Australia - we don't have no hoops in the bag here. And you run your catenary wire different too - we normally tension it up by spinning a stubbie bolt in it and securing it with a couple of minsup clips, or in the old days an L Pin - you've got that flash looking plastic coated thing to do it for you - neat. Do some more video's you old hack - congrats on the 20 years thing ya old dawg!
We used to use a stubby bolt but they need the minsup clips or some guys even use tape to keep them from unspinnibg . The plastic looking thing is coated in rubber and electricians use it to hang cable and clip nicely into the mesh. I plan on making some videos but as a trainer for the orange OEM typically it's other guys who are learning on the controls.
Drill Rig operator from South Africa here Hope you still drilling or shift supervisor by now Good work nice too watch some one els from different mines do it
I’m excited to learn the jack leg. I volunteer at a mine when I have the free time for an older gentleman and he’s teaching me the ropes. Next time go in is jackleg time
Just an odd question but I drill sidewinders with booms and steel facing the cab instead of up and down. So my question it how do u put both booms in the cut? Should add tho that I’m using a 282 atlas copco any feed back is appreciated! Thanks In advanced

Swap the booms for the cut . Take the bottom boom and put it on top and the top boom and put it on the bottom so the drill steel of each boom is very close and right ontop of each other .
@ScottHooker-nm3mp depends how tight you want the cut. Usually I’ll use the stinger pads to help measure the burden. Typically you will be drilling 43-38mm bits. Can afford to have your cut spread out more then old jack leg cut . For some reason the pads are to big you can just drill different holes at different times and they can still both be on the cut drilling at the same time
Buenas tardes. Excelente. Tienes mas cideos. Me interesa. Opero boktec y proximo llegara un sanvick a la empresa. Me gustaria ver mas. Ya que en youtube es poco lo que hay de este modelo. Por ejemplo operar dentro de la cabina sobre las funciones de los joytick y demas
Im a jumbo operator from Ghana but i use a single boom jumbo without screens. I wiuld love to use your machine one day. I use the DM801HDE from SANDVIC. Im impreesed wacthing you 😊
@@JoryDionI work for a shoring company, we're currently doing 3.3 meter holes on a 15° downwards angle. If I'm correct a jack leg is designed for flat drilling or upwards correct? 😅 It's literally killing my body doing this.
@@mitchellmacdonald6897 no we do -15 or more even. For some help you can drill a steel straight down and then chain your foot to it. Then use the air leg retract button to help pull the machine out. Or use a steel ladder
Ugh. I've never been much of a hand at putting up vent but I'll tell you what I'm amazingly good at catching it on a boom or the roof of the cab and tearing it down. We all have our gifts :-)
