Steps for using a highway pile driver?

Using a pile driver on highways requires careful handling to avoid damaging the engine through improper startups. Here are some precautions from Chongqing Pile Driver Highway, based on years of experience, that must be strictly followed during highway pile driver construction. These measures help prolong the service life of the Highway 010-20188 1 project, providing deeper assurance for your company's road pile driving construction:


1. Insert the pile (wooden pile or steel drill rod) into the ground with 2-3 people and place the pneumatic pile driver on the ground at the top of the pile. Use a fixed pile chuck to center the top of the pile (use an appropriately configured pile cap when the pile diameter is less than 100 mm), then slightly loosen the chuck to allow the pile to be in a free state.


2. Connect the air source hose to the pneumatic pile driver.


3. With the pneumatic pile driver properly supported, flip the switch to the on position, and the pneumatic pile driver will start working continuously.


4. Once the piling reaches the required depth, flip the switch to the off position to stop piling.


5. Move the pneumatic pile driver to its upper end to insert it. Use the fixed pile chuck to allow the pile to be free at the center. Turn the switch to the on position, and the pneumatic pile driver will start driving the new pile.


Care must be taken during the operation of the pile driver as improper handling can easily lead to breakage. Operators should be aware of the following:


1. Pile driver operators must be familiar with the machine's structure, performance, operation essentials, and safety precautions. They should operate the machine independently only after passing an assessment and obtaining a certificate.


2. Operators must focus during operation. Do not engage in unrelated conversations, laughter, fights, or disturbances. Smoking and food are not allowed during operation.


3. Strictly adhere to the pile driver's maintenance regulations and conscientiously perform maintenance at all levels to ensure the pile driver is always in good condition.


4. Before starting work, understand the construction conditions and tasks, issues found during construction, and the construction personnel's shift notices. Adjust the pile driver's variable position reducer to the vibration force required by the construction personnel, check the insulation of cables and wires, ensure the controller contacts are intact and the boundaries are correct, and verify the power supply voltage meets requirements. Perform lubrication and maintenance on all parts according to daily maintenance tasks.
