Pilot Circuits: Service Training Manual CM 760/780

The document describes the pilot circuits that control drilling and tramming functions on a CM760/780 drilling rig. Pilot pressure from the main hydraulic pumps is supplied to the drill/tram selector valve which limits it to 400 PSI. This pilot pressure is then directed to control valves based on whether drilling or tramming is selected. The tramming function uses pilot pressure to shift directional valves and power the tram motors. The drilling function uses separate pilot controllers for feed and rotation functions which direct pilot pressure to the appropriate ports on the respective control valves.

Pilot Circuits

The drilling and tramming valves used in the CM760/780 are


controlled by pilot pressure. Pilot pressure is supplied by either of the
main hydraulic pumps through a shuttle valve to the drill/tram selector
valve. The selector valve contains a pressure reducing valve that
limits the pressure in the pilot circuit to 400 PSI (28 Bar). Incoming
pressure from the main pumps may be as low as 250 PSI (17 Bar) or
as high as 3600 PSI (248 Bar) under some circumstances.
Remember, stroking either of the pumps will supply higher pressure to
the valve.

Adjustment of the pilot pressure valve:

The drill/tram selector valve can be identified as it has two solenoid


operated cartridges and an adjustable cartridge. There is also a large
hex plug that exposes a screen filter. There is also a quick connect
test port on the valve body.

If the machine is running but neither the drill or tram functions are
being used, the incoming pressure to the drill/tram selector valve is
only 250 PSI (17 Bar). This means that it is necessary to stroke one
of the main pumps to bring it on stroke and create a high enough
pressure to enable the setting of the pilot pressure cartridge. This is
easily accomplished by using the feed to lower the bit to the ground
and leaving the feed lever in the forward or down position. Dial in the
feed pressure to at least 500 PSI (34 Bar) to be certain that the pump
outlet pressure is over 400 PSI (28 Bar).

Tramming:

When the tram position is selected, the tram solenoid becomes


energized. This opens a flow path for fluid to be directed to the tram
joystick control in the cab. When the joystick is operated, pilot
pressure is metered to shift the spool in one or both of the tram
directional valves. This action directs fluid from the pump to the tram
motors. The tram control used in the CM760/780 is a single lever
control. Moving the lever straight forward or backward, directs fluid
through both tram valves simultaneously so the machine will operate
in a straight line. Moving the lever to either side will cause the tracks
to counter-rotate turning the machine.

Drilling:

When the drill position is selected, the drill solenoid is energized. The
selector valve opens and directs pilot pressure to the drill control pilot
controllers in the cab. There is one controller for the feed circuit and a
second controller that operates the rotation circuit. The forward port
of the rotation controller is connected to a pressure-reducing valve.
This pressure-reducing valve is used to regulate the rotation pilot
pressure to the forward control port of the rotation valve. The
schematic on the following page shows the feed and rotation pilot
circuits.
