INSTALLATION GUIDE
PRE-INSTALLATION ACTIVITIES
Electrical Considerations
1. Determine a location for the power unit.
Note: If the rig configuration has not been finalized, select two possible locations
for the power unit. The power unit should be placed on the same side of the rig as
the standpipe.
2. Determine the distance from the 480V, 100 amp plug at the motor control centre
(MCC) to the power unit.
Note: The standard power cable length is 250 ft. (76.2 m).
3. Determine if any special equipment is required. Examples: penetration or plug
boards.
Note: This equipment is required if the power cables must pass through walls on
their way from the MCC breaker to the power unit.
4. Determine if a cableway or suitable space is available to accommodate the power
cable that starts at the MCC breaker and goes to the power unit.
Note: If adequate space is not available, determine what materials would be
required to protect the cables from the breaker to the power unit.
Fuel Considerations
1. Determine the location and type of the fuel supply.
Note: The fuel connector line should be 1 in. minimum, and it should be able to
supply enough fuel for the power unit’s maximum consumption.
• For the 1205 hp prime mover, maximum consumption is 60 gallons (U.S.) per
hour (227 litres per hour)
• For the 760 hp prime mover, maximum consumption is 45 gallons (U.S.) per
hour (170 litres per hour)
2. Determine the required length of the fuel line. Determine the route it will take
from the fuel supply to the power unit.
Note: Avoid routing the fuel line where it might become damaged or pinched.
3. Verify the quality of the fuel supply.
Note: Poor fuel quality might require special treatment. For example, fuel line
heaters might be required in areas where diesel fuel contains high levels of paraffin.
4. Install fuel return lines should be installed to return circulated fuel to the tank.
Air Considerations
1. Determine if the air supply is adequate.
Note: 100 psi minimum with a 1 in. supply line
2. Verify the quality of the air supply.
Note: If you are in an area with high humidity, then a moisture trap might be
required to remove moisture from the starter’s air supply.
3. Determine the required length and route of the air supply line.
Note: Avoid routing the line where it might become damaged or pinched. If you
place the air receiver close to the power unit, this might help it start more easily.

PRE-INSTALLATION ACTIVITIES
INSTALLATION GUIDE
EQUIPMENT INSPECTION (PRE-INSTALLATION)
Tesco inspects all top drive equipment before shipping, however, some damage might occur
while equipment is in transit.
It is important to identify any shipping damage as quickly as possible. This allows you to make
necessary repairs, order equipment replacements, and optimize system readiness.
As part of a pre-installation equipment inspection, do the following:
• Check all shipping containers for damage. External damage may indicate damage to contents.
• Visually inspect all principle components for damage or missing parts.
• If the top drive system is shipped with fluid levels at full, check the fluid levels. Low
fluid levels may indicate a leak in the hydraulic, cooling, or lubrication system.
A sample equipment checklist is included in “Appendix A: Pre-Installation Checklist”.

EQUIPMENT PLACEMENT
Optimal Placement of the Power Unit
The following diagram shows the optimal placement of the power unit. This placement is considered ideal for the following reasons:
•
•
•
•
•
The power unit is located on the same side as the standpipe.
The placement allows straight-line access from the cable reel to the roller saddle.
The cooling fans are not obstructed.
There is adequate space in front of and behind the power unit (15 ft.).
There is working access for personnel around the perimeter (3 ft. on each side).

RIG UP PROCEDURE
INSTALLATION GUIDE
Although the location of the power unit depends on the rig configuration, it is important that
you consider the factors discussed above when you place the equipment. If space is very limited, you can order an optional stacking kit to mount the hydraulic oil storage tank, cooler and
cable reel on top of the prime mover, pump drive, and filter manifold.
Note: If you require a stacking kit, you must specify this requirement well before the
unit is shipped.
How to Place of the Power Unit Components
1. Ensure the ground surface is level; remove any major obstructions.
2. Install rig matting or another secure material under the equipment location.
Note: Ensure the rig matting extends far enough beyond the equipment to provide
a walkway for outside service activity.
3. Using a crane or loader, place the prime mover on the rig matting.
Note: The prime mover is heavier and more difficult to manoeuvre than the
mechanical module, so it should be placed first. The prime mover side of the
power unit is normally placed away from the hose saddle. The reel side of the
power unit is normally placed towards the hose saddle.
4. Place the filter, cooling, fuel storage and hose reel sections where required.
5. If necessary, install bolts to secure all skids.
Note: Units send to locations in North America might be assembled prior to shipment.
6. Connect the following items:

RIG UP PROCEDURE
Optimal Placement of the Hose Saddle
The following illustration shows the optimal placement of the hose saddle. This placement is
considered ideal because the hose saddle is situated as follows:
• High enough to prevent cables or hoses from landing on the rig floor when top drive is
lowered [[65 ft.-75 ft. (19.8m-22.9m) above the rig floor if the mast height is 130 ft.-145
ft. (39.6m-44.2m)],
• low enough to allow the top drive to reach the highest position in the mast without straining or damaging hoses,
• where the service hoses will follow the mud (Kelly) hose and reduce the risk of the service hoses interfering with the overhead equipment as the top drive travels up and down
the mast, and
• where the hose will not be damaged during top drive operations.
Note: Attach protective equipment to any points that might be subject to wear during top
drive operations.

Although the arrangement shown here is considered optimal, placement of the cable roller saddle is determined by several factors:
•
•
•
•
•
mast height
racking platform height
length of traveling equipment (drill string, compensator, blocks, and swivel)
saddle hanging mechanism and configuration
available hose length (standard hose length is 225 ft.(76.2 m) unless otherwise
requested)
• power unit location

RIG UP PROCEDURE
INSTALLATION GUIDE
How to Install the Hose Hanging Saddle and Service Loop
Tesco recommends that you suspend the hose saddle from a pad eye attached to the racking
platform. If no pad eye is available, wrap a sling around a secure beam at the racking platform.
The hose saddle can be shackled to the sling and suspended from the beam. The total weight
suspended from the sling or pad eye is 3,000 lbs.
The hose saddle includes a clamp that holds the service loop cable and hoses in place at the
racking platform. The hoses and cable are clamped into the saddle at ground level, then the
saddle is hoisted into position.
Before you begin this procedure, you must calculate the length of service loop that will travel
with the top drive.
1. Ensure that the auxiliary hydraulic fluid lines are connected to the hose reel control.
Note: Hydraulic power is required to un-spool the service loop for connection to

TORQUE ARREST SYSTEM
Before You Install the Torque Arrest System
Install a hanging pad eye in the crown before you install the torque arrest system. This pad eye
must be designed and installed to support the hanging weight of the entire torque assembly
(safe working load of 20,000 lb. (9,072 kg) plus the recommended safety factor for overhead
equipment).
The pad eye is typically placed 29 in. (73.66 cm) back from the crown cluster centre. It is easiest to install the pad eye when the mast is down. Discuss installation procedures with a Tesco
representative as part of pre-installation activities.
Danger! Design and installation of the pad eye should
meet or exceed all safety specifications for the
operating area and operating conditions.
A variety of stabilization devices are used to hold the torque arrest system in place during
operations. It is easiest to install the stabilization systems before raising the mast.
Torque Arrest System Components
A standard torque arrest system includes the torque beam, T-bar, and the following torque
track sections:
• one 18.5 ft. (5.6m) top section with an adjustable pinned insert or adjustable cable sling
hanging assembly
• one 18.5 ft. (5.6m) reversible, bolted, bottom torque track section
• five 18.5 ft. (5.6m) standard torque track sections
• one 10 ft. (3.1m) torque track section
• one 5 ft. (1.5m) torque track section
The total length of the torque track sections is 145 ft. (44.2m). Obtain additional length (one 8
ft. (2.4m) section) by lengthening the top-section pinned insert or cable sling. Purchase additional torque track sections to accommodate larger masts.
The following two sections of torque track are also included:
• one 1.3 ft. (.4m) deflector section (bull nose)
• one 2 ft. (.6m) torque track section
Caution: Never subject these sections to torque. Mount them below
the torque beam only.
The deflector section is always mounted at the bottom. Its tapered design assists in mounting
the torque bushing onto the torque track.

Torque Arrest System Configuration
You must know the following before you can determine the torque track configuration:
• height of the hanging pad eye for the torque track, measured from the rig floor (A)
• position (height above rig floor) where the torque beam and T-bar will be mounted (B)
• length of the hanging assembly for the torque track, including hanging swivel, nut, and
shackles (2.5 ft. (.8m) minimum to 11 ft. maximum (3.4m))
Note: Shorter configurations are safer and more practical.
• the location of any upper strongback that may interfere with the vertical hanging of the
torque track
Figure 3-6: Torque Arrest System Configuration
How to Determine the Torque Track Configuration
Sketch and calculate the following on paper before you connect sections of torque track.
1. Place the bottom of the deflector section 9 ft.-10 ft. (2.7m-3.0m) above the drill
floor (C).
2. Place the bottom bolted section of torque track above the deflector section.
Note: Ensure that a suitable strongback for mounting the torque beam and T-bar is
available somewhere along the length of the bolted section of torque track.
Remember that the bolted section is reversible.
3. Stack the track sections (18.5 ft., 5 ft. and 10 ft. sections) until you reach 5 ft.-11
ft. (1.5 m-3.4 m) from the pad eye.
4. Determine the length of hanging assembly required.
Note: Ensure that the length of hanging assembly is incorporated into the calculation.
5. Calculate the height of the torque bushing to ensure that it will not come off the
top end of the torque track when it is in the uppermost position.

Sample Calculation
If the mast height is 142 ft. (43.3m):
1. 142 ft. less 9 ft. (2.7 m) (height above rig floor for deflector section) = 133 ft.
(40.6 m)
2. 133 ft. less 2.5 ft. (.76 m) (minimum hang assembly length) = 130.5 ft. (39.8 m)
3. 130.5 ft. divided by 18.5 ft. = 7 full-length tracks; this does not include the deflector section.
Torque beam desired height = 11 ft. (3.4 m)

bolted section.
How to Install the Torque Arrest System
Use this procedure to install the torque arrest track system. Refer to Figure 3-7 on page 19 and
Figure 3-8 on page 20.
1. Ensure the hanging pad-eye for the torque track is installed in the crown.
Note: Normal placement for a standard track is 29 in. back from the crown cluster
centre.
2. Assemble the torque beam, T-bar, and T-bar clamp.
Warning! Assemble the above with the T-bar at mid-length.
This balances the assembly during lifting.The
assembly should not be fully torqued, but it
should hold the T-bar securely in place.
3. Use a tugger to move the torque beam onto the drill floor and up to the lowest,
most practical strongback beam.
Note: Install the torque beam low in the mast. Attach it to a large beam anywhere
between 12 ft. and 18 ft. above the drill floor. If you install it any higher, you
might require additional stabilization below the torque beam. Tesco can supply
additional stabilization, if required.

4. Use four clamps to mount the torque beam to the selected supporting beam.
Note: On a permanent installation, you may weld the anchor beam clamp onto the
mast.
5. Slide the T-bar to the most rearward position.
Note: Always mount the T-bar on top of the torque beam. If possible, mount it so
the T-bar sits approximately 1/8 in. above the T-bar clamp so that the torque hanging assembly carries the total weight of the torque track.
6. Use the calculation method described in “How to Determine the Torque Track
Configuration” on page 15 to calculate the required torque track section configuration.
Note: When the torque track is suspended, the bottom of the deflector section
should be 9 ft. off the floor.
7. When the rig-up for the torque track sections is determined, set and secure the calculated pinned insert location, or adjust the hanging assembly to the appropriate
length.
8. Bolt the top section of torque track to the second section of torque track.
Note: On most rigs, two full-length sections of torque track can be assembled on
the ground before being lifted to the rig floor. If the rig is very small, consult with
a Tesco representative before installation.
9. Use the rig floor tuggers to hoist the first track section up to the floor.
Note: As the first section is installed, make up additional sections on the ground.
10. Lower the first track section through the rotary table or mousehole.
11. Lower the blocks and install two handling slings on the torque track.
Note: Thread the slings through the block becket and attach them to the top track
using the handling assembly for the torque track.
Caution: Attach the top section of track such that the top portion of
track extends above the blocks. This allows the hanging assembly
to reach the pad eye without crowning out the blocks.
12. Place a ratchet strap around the top of the blocks and thread it around the torque
track.
13. Use the ratchet strap to pull the blocks and track together.
Note: This immobilizes the track section and keeps it hanging vertically as it travels up the mast.
14. Hoist the blocks until they support the weight of the torque track.
15. Remove the floor tugger.
16. Hoist the blocks until the bottom of the first section is 8 ft. above the drill floor.
17. Connect the floor tugger to the second section of torque track and hoist it to the rig
floor.
18. Lower the second section of track through the rotary table or into the mousehole
until it reaches the appropriate level for connecting to the upper section (which is
currently suspended from the blocks).
19. Install all the studs and lower nuts before you connect the sections.
Note: You cannot install the studs after the track sections are connected.
20. Lower the blocks and upper section of track and connect the two sections. Bolt the
sections together, ensuring a flush connection.
Note: Coat all bolts with an anti-seize compound before installation.

21. Torque the bolts to 350 ft·lbs.
22. Repeat steps 17.–21. until all sections are connected and supported by the blocks.
Note: The last section that is installed is typically composed of the reversible
bolted section, the deflector section and, if required, the two-foot track section.
23. Use a ratchet strap to secure the extend arms of the torque bushing in place.
24. Attach a tugger to the torque bushing and move the bushing onto the drill floor.
Note: Ensure that the extend frame is down.
25. Position the torque bushing over hole centre.
26. Use the blocks to lower the assembled torque track and stab it through the torque
bushing.
27. When the torque bushing is in position, pin it in place.
Note: Ensure that the top drive pin ends are at least 8 ft. above the drill floor. If the
torque bushing is too tight to move freely along the torque track, adjust the torque
bushing by adding additional shim packs. To ensure a proper fit, periodically
check the bushing during the first few days of operation.
28. After the torque bushing is installed, raise the blocks to the crown.
29. Connect the hanging assembly of the torque track to the pad eye.
30. When the hanging assembly is connected to the pad eye, lower the blocks until the
weight of the track is transferred to the pad eye.
Note: Do not remove the handling assembly yet. Use the blocks to raise and lower
the torque track while you make the fine adjustments required to connect the T-bar
to the bolted section.
31. Connect the T-bar to the bolted section of the torque track.
Caution: When you connect the bolted section of the torque track,
ensure you suspend the full weight of the torque track from the pad
eye.
Note: If the T-bar and bolted sections are not vertically aligned, then use the
blocks to hoist the track. While the track weight is suspended from the blocks,
adjust the hanging swivel as required.
32. When all T-bar fastening bolts are tight, move the T-bar to the correct position in
the T-bar seat and tighten the clamp to hold it in position.
Note: Hang the centre of the torque track vertically, 29 in. back from the hole centre.
33. Tighten the lock nut on the hanging assembly.
34. Remove the handling assembly at the crown and lower the blocks.
Caution: Before you move the top drive onto the rig floor, ensure
the following is in place:
· the traveling equipment and swivel are attached to the blocks
· the counter-balance system is installed
35. Install stabilization systems.
Note: Install stabilization mechanisms on all available strongback beams.These
are most easily installed when the mast is down, but can also be installed during
rig-up.
36. Attach the stabilization devices to the torque track as shown in the illustrations
starting on the following page.

COUNTER-BALANCE SYSTEM
Before You Install the Counter-Balance System
Determine the following as part of the measurement/pre-installation activity:
• the inside diameter of the clamp insert on the swivel bail
• counter-balance block mounting method
Figure 3-9: Inside Diameter of the Bail Clamp Insert
Measure along this
section to determine the
inside diameter of the
bail clamp insert.
Use a block saddle or block plates (at owner's discretion) to mount the counter-balance system.
The most common/most preferred method of mounting uses block plates. Mount these before
the mast is raised or during top drive rig-up. To mount the counter-balance plates, you must
drill and tap 12 holes (1 in. x 2-1/2 in. deep) in the block side plates.
Caution: When you install the counter-balance cylinders, use
shackles on both ends of the cylinders to connect them to the
swivel bail clamps and the counter-balance hang plates. This prevents damage to the counter-balance cylinders under the following
circumstances:
If you extend the top drive quickly, or stop and start the traveling
blocks quickly, this causes the blocks to “wave” back and forth in
the derrick. This movement can break the clevises off the counterbalance cylinders.
Shackles at both ends prevent this movement from damaging the
cylinders.

CHAPTER 5: RIG OUT PROCEDURE
The top drive rig-out (removal) procedure is divided into the following separate activities:
•
•
•
•
•
break out the top drive/swivel connection
remove the top drive
remove the torque arrest system
remove the service loop
prepare the power unit
Refer to the following section, “How To Break the Top Drive/Swivel Connection”, for information on how to remove the top drive from the rig floor.
When the rig-out procedures are complete, store all equipment in shipping containers. For
more information on long term storage, please consult the Maintenance Guide for your unit
type.
HOW TO BREAK THE TOP DRIVE/SWIVEL CONNECTION
This procedure is not required if the optional integrated swivel is installed.
It is best to connect the top drive to a single length of heavy-weight drill pipe before you
attempt to break out the connection between the top drive and the swivel. The heavy-weight
pipe provides lateral stability for the top drive during break out. Lower the drill pipe as far as
possible through the rotary table before you set the slips. Ensure that the rotary table is free to
rotate.
If heavy-weight drill pipe is not available, lower the top drive as far as possible and chain it in
place to stabilize it.
Caution: Before you begin this procedure, do the following:
· set the torque and speed setting for Connect-Reverse mode
· remove the elevators and elevator links
1. Set the back-up tong to fit the swivel crossover sub.
2. Attach a tugger line to the back-up tong.
3. Hoist the tong until it reaches the height of the crossover sub.
4. Attach a sling from the back-up tong to a secure point in the mast.
Note: Ensure the sling attachment is at the same height as the back-up tong. This
sling will absorb and transfer the torque back to the mast.

How to Break Difficult Connections
How to Use the Breakout Function to Break Difficult Connections
1. If the top drive/swivel connection does not loosen after 15-20 seconds of breakout
torque application, release the BREAKOUT button.
2. Allow the pumps to cool for 10 seconds, then try again.
If the connection does not break on the fourth attempt, try heating the connection box on the
top drive. If possible, heat the connection using steam. Refer to the following procedure for
details.
How to Use Heat to Break the Top Drive/Swivel Connection
If normal breakout procedures fail, you might need to use heat to loosen the connection.Do not
apply heat until after standard breakout procedures have been attempted.
Danger! Use caution when using steam or other heat
sources.
Warning! Never heat the quill to temperatures higher than
described in this procedure.
Caution: The goal of this procedure is to warm the box connection
quickly and evenly. This will cause the box connection to swell outward, away from the pin. If the warming procedure takes too long,
heat will transfer from the box connection to the pin connection,
and the connection will not loosen.
1. Ensure that you have all required tools. These include the following:
• heating equipment (steam heat is preferred, however, a propane torch or welding
torch with a ‘rosebud’ heating tip may also be used)
• 300°F heat-sensitive marking pen
2. Ensure that the rig tongs are in the ready position.
3. Begin rotating the quill slowly (4-5 rpm).
4. Apply heat evenly from the bottom of the thread to the top of the box connection.
See Figure 5-2 on page 42.
Caution: Never hold the heat source in a single spot.
Caution: Frequently check the metal temperature by using the heat
pen.
5. Heat the quill until it is very warm (approximately 225-250°F above the ambient
temperature).
Warning! If the mark from the heat pen melts, stop heating
immediately! Applying too much heat will
severely damage the quill (the quill material will
harden and become brittle).
