To know how to use a small pile driver, you first need to understand its components. Generally, a small pile driver consists of a hammer, pile frame, and auxiliary equipment, including a winch, tripod, base seat, motor, shovel head, tamper-proof switch, and metal cable. Its structure isn't very complex, making it easy to learn and convenient to use. Small pile drivers mainly come in wheeled and tracked types. The basic technical parameters of a pile driver are the weight of the impact, the kinetic energy of the impact, and the frequency of the impact. The hammer's power source can be divided into drop hammers, steam hammers, diesel hammers, hydraulic hammers, etc.

To use it, you need to connect the double column ladder of the tripod through a horizontal bar to the base. Once connected, the two frames of the tripod column are linked to the double column ladder, forming a triangular support shape. It's crucial to ensure a firm installation to avoid danger. Next, one end of the steel wire wound on the hoist is connected to the blade's head through the top of the tripod. Adjust the hoist to raise the blade head to the appropriate height, then release the release rod so the shovel can be submerged underground. Readjust the hoist to lift the shovel head above ground and place it into a dirt container below the shovel head. During the use cycle, the lifting head can be used to release the blade head for continuous operation.

However, during use, remember to:

Refill the hoist with grease every two to three days.

Add a suitable amount of filler (like sand, iron powder, stones) to the shovel and hammer head to ensure sufficient weight.

Regularly check the cable to prevent accidents.

Pile driver operators must be familiar with the machine's structure, performance, main operational aspects, and safety precautions, passing an exam to obtain a certificate for independent operation. Operators must focus on the task without engaging in unrelated conversations, laughing, playing, or eating. Adhere strictly to the maintenance rules of the pile driver and perform maintenance diligently to ensure the pile driver is always in good condition, using it reasonably and correctly.

Before operating the pile driver, construction personnel should be informed of the conditions, tasks, and any issues or points of attention during construction. Adjust the gear position of the pile driver as required, check the insulation of cables and wires, verify the controller contacts and limits are correct, check the power voltage meets requirements, and lubricate and maintain all parts according to daily maintenance tasks.
