MAINTENANCE
INTRODUCTION
TD001-01
1 of 1
This manual is published as a general guide for the service of your LEWCO Top Drive.
Because of the many factors which normally contribute to the proper function or
malfunction of the Power Swivel, and not having complete knowledge of each factor or
combination of factors, we cannot detail all facets of this subject. We therefore confine
the scope of this presentation, and when situations encountered are not fully
encompassed by complete and understandable instructions, these situations must then
be referred to LEWCO.
The dimensions and tolerances specified in this publication are those desirable for the
most efficient operations of the Top Drive. When components become worn beyond
limits specified, they should be replaced.
The drawings, pictures and photographs may be of similar equipment and may not
appear exactly like your product.

INSPECTION – PRE & POST JARRING
TD602-00
1 of 1
Jarring a stuck pipe is an intense situation that must be handled with extreme caution,
due to the stress on the equipment. It is important to make certain that the expected
jarring load does not exceed the rating of the Top Drive. The following
recommendations should be carried out each time jarring is to be performed with the
Top Drive.
Pre-Jarring
Important precautions should be taken before jarring stuck pipe. The following is a
recommended list of pre-jarring procedures to be performed in order to have an
understanding of the conditions of the Top Drive prior to jarring.
1. Inspect all fasteners, safety wires, lock nuts, cotter pins, and any other piece of
equipment that may need to be replaced.
2. Check for loose connections (electrical, hydraulic, mudline, etc).
3. Perform a function test on the entire Top Drive to ensure electrical and hydraulic
connections are working properly.
4. Check for fluid leaks.
5. Remove or restrain all loose items, such as the elevators and elevator links.
6. Disconnect (unpin) the counterbalance cylinders from the Top Drive.
7. Visually inspect the welds of the upper body structure and handling ring, as well as
the various brackets, for cracks or damage.
While Jarring
It is important to continuously inspect the Top Drive during jarring operations. Pre-
Jarring procedures 1, 2, 4, & 7 should be performed periodically during the jarring
operations. If any problems are found, correct them immediately before resuming the
jarring operation.
Post-Jarring
Once jarring is finished, inspect the Top Drive again per the Pre-Jarring procedures with
the following exceptions.
This document provides general descriptions of the proper function for the various
systems that make up the top drive. Since control interface may be different for each
control system, inconsistencies may exist between the description in this document and
the actual control equipment. Precaution and good judgment should always be used
when working with this equipment.

Make Up:
• Check that Make-Up Torque preset value is set to the correct value for the tool joint.
• Once motor stalls from Spin-In, set Grabs button to “On”, which causes the pipe
clamp jaw to close.
• With the Direction selector in the “FWD” position, set Motor Operation selector to
“Torque” and hold while torque increases.
• Once the torque, indicated on the torque meter, increases to the preset value, hold
for 3 seconds, and then release selector and allow it to spring-return to the “Spin”
position.

Spin Out:
• Once the tool joint breakout occurs, release Motor Operation selector and allow it
to spring-return to the “Spin” position.
o Once motor rotation is detected, the system changes to spin mode and pipe
spins out at 10 RPM and torque limit of 5000 ft-lbs.
Before conducting installation of the track and top drive, refer to the Safety Provisions
document located in the manual. Other provisions not listed may be necessary.
Precaution and good judgment should always be used when working with this
equipment.
The following are general procedures for installing the torque tube/track system and top
drive. Proper initial installation is very critical to the performance of the top drive and
track. Initial installation should be performed by qualified technicians familiar with the
system.
1. Upon initial installation, install the track support padeyes at the water table under
the crown. This can remain installed for subsequent rig-up. Alignment is located
35” from well center.
2. Attach support slings to the traveling block padeye for lifting the track sections.
3. Position top track section so that is can be lifted into the mast.
4. Attach top track section to support slings.
5. Connect each subsequent track section while raising the traveling block and top
track section.
6. Once all track sections have been installed, connect the turnbuckles to the
support slings and to the track support padeyes.
7. Check that the track is straight and adjust as necessary.
8. Install the torque transfer beams and attach to the bottom track section.
9. Install the track stabilizers at girt location and attach to track.
10. Check that the track is still straight and adjust as necessary.
11. Position the top drive w/ dolly so that it can be lifted into the mast.
12. Lift top drive into vertical position and install dolly onto track (removed roller
brackets if necessary).
13. Align top drive to well center.
14. Slowly raise top drive into mast while checking for straightness and any
interference.
15. Install service loop and rotary hose, and again slowly raise top drive while
checking for straightness and interference.
! IMPORTANT !
Makeup each tool joint connection to the recommended torque prior to
installing the safety clamps. Failure to do so could result in damage to the
clamps and/or the tool joint components.
1. Remove the shipping spacers and screws, if any, provided for protection during
shipping.
2. Verify the lubrication of the supplied locking screw threads, screw head bearing area
and tapers of the inner rings. If necessary, lubricate them with a molybdenum
disulfide grease, such as Molykote Gn Paste.
Note: Do not grease the inside diameter of the inner ring or the outside diameter
of the mating components. These surfaces should be clean and free from
burs or marks to provide the maximum torque resistance.
3. Clean and lightly oil the inner ring bore and the outer diameter of the tool joint
connection.
4. Slide the clamp into place over the tool joint connection so that approximately half of
the inner ring is covering each of the mating tool joint components.
5. Tighten 3 or 4 locking screws that are equally spaced around the diameter of the
clamp to establish a perpendicular position of shrink disc collars relative to the tool
joint components. This step properly seats the collar on the taper of the inner ring.
6. Using a torque wrench, tighten all locking screws gradually and in a circular
sequence around the clamp (not in a diametrically opposite sequence). Several
passes may be required until all screws are torqued to the correct value of 185 ft-lbs.
7. Verify that the screws are completely tight by reapplying the specified torque to each
screw. The gap between the shrink disc collars should be evenly spaced around the
entire clamp.

ISSUE: The support cable grips loosen allowing cables to slip due to cable
movement as the drag chain moves up and down in the derrick.
All drag chain style service loops should be modified by securing the cable support grips
using standard electrical tape as shown in the photo below. The electrical tape will help
prevent the cables from working the grips loose during normal raising and lowering of
the Top Drive and Service Loop. If service loop is spooled on a reel, grips will need to
be loosened on one end to allow the cables to move naturally as it is being spooled.

PERTAINS: All LTI 500T Top Drives with Split Block and original Bail Bushings prior to
mid-2007
ISSUE: The shape of the ID in the block adapter links is contoured while the OD of
the original bail bushing is straight along the centerline axis. This causes
the bushing to bind to the bail pin, which causes the bail pin to rotate and
damage the bail pin retainer pin.
A product improvement is available that will better match the bushing and bail, while
retaining the original design intention. In addition, a new bail pin retainer is included to
better restrain the bail pin from rotating. Parts required are included in the retrofit kit
(LTI P/N 330-0803). In addition, the pin bore in the block adapter links will need to be
machined to a straight bore with a 6.375” / 6.373” inside diameter.

PERTAINS: All LTI 500T Top Drives with Hollow Shaft Encoders
ISSUE: Encoders are located inside the brake housing, making it difficult to
access. In addition, signal interference could possibly occur due to the
low voltage signaling used by the encoders.
A product improvement is available to locate new encoders to the outside of the body
structure. The new encoders are explosion proof, allowing a higher voltage signal to be
used, which is less susceptible to electrical signal interference. Modifications to the
electrical system are required, which should be performed by an authorized LTI Service
Technician. The mounting bracket can be used as a template for drilling and tapping
the holes in the body structure that are used to support the assembly. DO NOT WELD
TO THE BODY STRUCTURE. Parts required are:

PERTAINS: All LTI 500T Top Drives delivered prior to mid-2007 which have hinged
doors integrated into the guards
ISSUE: ! WARNING !
A safety hazard exists that should be address at the earliest convenience.
The hinges for some doors located on the guards around the drill motor
may have been manufactured incorrectly, which could allow the door to
separate from the guard. If the door is not secured, it could then fall and
possibly cause damage to other equipment or personal injury or death.
All top drives which have hinged doors integrated into the guards should be checked for
proper hinge orientation. Each door should have at least two hinges on each end
oriented opposite each other, as shown below, so that the door cannot separate from
the guard. If a hinge is found to be oriented incorrectly, one hinge should be removed,
re-oriented, and re-welded so that the door cannot separate from the guard. If existing
hinge cannot be reused, a new one can be ordered with part number 108-1094.

PERTAINS: All LTI 500T Top Drives delivered prior to mid-2007 which have original
valve and crank assembly components.
ISSUE: ! WARNING !
A safety hazard exists that should be address at the earliest convenience.
The IBOP Valve stems for some valves may have been manufactured
incorrectly, which could keep the crank assembly from seating correctly
due to interference with the retainer on the crank assembly. If interference
is present, the retainer could work loose and allow part of the crank
assembly to slide out and fall, which could possibly cause damage to
other equipment or personal injury.
All top drive upper IBOP valves should be checked for correct stem height. In addition,
each crank assembly should be checked for new inverted style retainer ring, and should
be installed to the IBOP valve with Nord-Lock washers. The parts required to correct
IBOP valve (left & right stems) and crank assemblies (retainers & washers), are
included in retrofit kit part number 330-1042. The following should be performed to
check and, if applicable, correct the components.
PROCEDURE:
1. REMOVE BOTH VALVE CRANK ASSEMBLIES (NOTE: SEE STEP 8 FOR CRANK
ASSEMBLY CHANGES)
2. REMOVE ACTUATOR SLEEVE.
3. MEASURE DISTANCE FROM VALVE O.D. TO THE FACE OF THE STEM. IF
DISTANCE IS LESS THAN .427 INCHES, THAN STEM IS TOO TALL AND MUST BE
REPLACED.
4. IF STEM REPLACEMENT IS REQUIRED, CONTINUE BY REMOVING IBOP VALVE.
5. REPLACE LEFT & RIGHT STEMS, PER MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN
IN THE DOCUMENT TD901, LOCATED IN TOP DRIVE MANUAL.
6. ONCE VALVE IS RE-ASSEMBLED, RE-INSTALL ON TOP DRIVE.
7. RE-INSTALL ACTUATOR SLEEVE.
8. WHILE CRANK ASSEMBLIES ARE REMOVED, REMOVE EXISTING RETAINER AND
REPLACE WITH NEW EXTERNAL INVERTED SNAP RING.
9. RE-INSTALL CRANK ASSEMBLIES WITH THE NORD-LOCK WASHERS AND
EXISTING BOLTS. TORQUE BOLTS TO 33 FT-LBS.
