1. Anchor the hanging cable to a point as close
to the derrick crown as possible. The longer
the hanging cable, the easier the HawkJaw is
to move on and off the drill pipe.
2. Locate the cable hang point as high above
the center of the rotary table as possible. The
cable must hang within 2'-3' ft. of the rotary
table center.
NOTE
The hanging cable must permit the HawkJaw to
move from the drill pipe connection to the mouse
hole connection to the HawkJaw rest position
(3'- 5' ft. away from the rotary table).
1. Place the HawkJaw on the side of the
rotary table away from the setback zone.
This allows the drill pipe stands to swing
straight from pick-up to stabbing.
2. If possible, place the HawkJaw on opposite
side of the setback zone. If the rig has dual
setback zones, Step 1applies.
3. The HawkJaw may rest on the rig floor 3' -
5' ft. away from the rotary table.
