In recent days, the weather has turned cold, signaling the fast approach of winter. Before using a pile driver, it is necessary to preheat it. Many people might consider warming up the pile driver a hassle and a waste of time, thinking you can just use the engine as usual without warming it up. However, this is not the case. Let's talk about the importance of warming up in the operation of pile drivers.
1. When a pile driver starts working, it is in a cold engine state. Suddenly introducing hot oil and the effects of thermal expansion can cause significant damage to oil seals. Moreover, due to rapid frequency movements, oil leaks and frequent replacement of oil seals are more likely.
2. This depends on the characteristics of the pile driver itself. With its high impact force and fast frequency, a pile driver wears out its seals much quicker than other hammers. Preheating can slow down the wear process of the pile driver's oil seals.
3. When hydraulic oil is stationary, it is solid, and the oil film sticks between the piston and the oil seal. Preheating the pile driver is to wash the relatively solid hydraulic oil film with wet hydraulic oil and establish a new hydraulic oil film to expand the oil seal, ensuring that the piston and oil seal are not damaged in the early stages.
Warming up procedure: Lift the pile driver vertically off the ground, press the foot valve about 1/3 of the way, and observe the main oil inlet tube lightly shaking (near the cabin side oil tube). Maintain the foot pedal stroke for about 20-40 minutes. Regular maintenance of the pile driver is a very important task.
Do not reduce the power of the pile driver machinery for the sake of saving time and effort, as this could also directly affect your own economic benefits.
