3. OPERATION
WARNING: Any modification to the tool carried out without the approval of Blohm + Voss Oil Tools will void any warranty.
WARNING: Using the tool with damaged or worn parts can create serious incidents.
Safety
The tool must only be used for the designated purpose. When using the tool, the rated load must never be exceeded
Extreme Low Temperature
Ratings have been established at a temperature of minus 20°C. The effect of low temperature on steel must be recognized although no changes in design safety factors have been provided. When operating at low temperatures, caution must be exercised to take into account the lower impact capabilities of many steels which are typically employed. The risk of failure may be reduced by a critical load inspection.

4. MAINTENANCE & INSPECTION
General
If cracks, excessive wear etc. is recognised, contact Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorised service company.Weldings of the castings should be done only by Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorised service company in according to Blohm + Voss welding procedure.
A regular preventative maintenance program should be established for all Special Link Connectors. These written maintenance procedures should be given to the crew or maintenance personnel.
Deterioration of equipment
Normal wear in course of use will eventually reduce the capability of the Special Link Connectors. The existence or cracks, or the appearance of defects, can indicate severe deterioration, even impending failure, and prompt attention is required either to remove the elevator link from service immediately, or to undertake appropriate repair as required.
Records
Inspection procedure are listed in this recommended practice and generalized sketches of the Special Link Connectors showing points to be inspected are to be provided. Written records should be maintained which accurately record the inspection and maintenance history of each elevator link. Records should include the date, personnel involved, and results of each inspection or maintenance procedure performed.
WARNING: Never weld on Elevator Links!
Dismantling
The Special Link Connectors should be dismantled from the rig and inspected in a usitably equipped facility for excessive wear, cracks, flaws or deformation. Corrections should be made in accordance with recommendations which can be obtained from Blohm + Voss.
Cleaning
Before inspection, all foreign material such as dirt, paint, grease, oil, scale, etc. should be removed from the areas to be inspected by a suitable method.
Inspection Procedure
The inspection should be made by trained, competent personnel.

Lubrication
The Special Link Connectors needs to be lubricated daily on the following points. Use a grease gun:
Grease points:1. Pin2. Pin3. Pin4. Pin
Locking of screws
All Screws are normally secured by a mechanical bolt lock or with a safety wire. All other screws are secured by metal adhesive (Locktite). Ensure the correct retention method is applied.
Grease Quality
In order to achieve efficient greasing even at different environmental temperatures, we recommend the following grease types should be used (obtainable from Blohm + Voss Oil Tools): • Low-Viscosity grease• Type AVIATICON Grease XRF
Alternatively; Use EP1 gear lubricating grease for greasing ”non-oil tight gear trains” when temp. < 0°C/32°F.Use EP2 when temp. > 0°C/32°F.
WARNING: Ensure to wear personal safety protection like gloves and safety glasses when handling hydraulic oil and/or grease. Oil and grease may be potentially harmfull for skin and eyes.

Category IThis category involves observing the equipment during operation for indications of inadequate performance.When in use, equipment shall be visually inspected on a daily basis for cracks, loose fits or connections, elongation of part, and other signs of wear, corrosion or overloading. Any parts found to show cracks, excessive wear, etc., shall be removed from service for further examination.The equipment shall be visually inspected by a person knowledgeable in that equipment and its function.
Category IIThis is Category I inspection plus further inspection for corrosion, deformation, loose or missing components, deterioration, proper lubrication, visible external cracks, and adjustment. Category II may involve some disassembly to access specific components and to identify wear that exceeds the allowable tolerances.
Category IIIThis is Category II inspection plus further inspection, which should include NDT of critical areas and may involve some disassembly to access specific components and to identify wear that exceeds the allowable tolerances.Prior to inspection, all foreign material such as dirt, paint, grease, oil, scale, etc. shall be removed from the concerned parts by a suitable method (e.g. paint-stripping, steam-cleaning, grit-blasting).
Category IVThis is Category III inspection plus further inspection for which the equipment is disassembled to the extent necessary to conduct NDT of all primary-load-carrying components.
Equipment shall be:• disassembled in a suitable-
equipped facility to the extent necessary to permit full inspection of all primary-load-carrying components and other components that are critical to the equipment.
• inspected for excessive wear, cracks, flaws and deformation.
Procedure:• Corrections shall be made
in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Prior to inspection, all foreign material such as dirt, paint, grease, oil, scale, etc. shall be removed from the concerned parts by a suitable method (e.g. paint-stripping, steam-cleaning, grit-blasting)
Frequency
Periodic inspection
The recommended schedule for inspection of all kind of • Elevators, Links, Special Link
Connectors:Ongoing IDaily: II6 Monthly: III1 Year: IV
• Spiders:Ongoing: IWeekly: II6 Monthly: III1 Year: IV
• Power Slips:Ongoing: IWeekly: II6 Monthly: III2 Year: IV
The recommended frequencies apply for equipment in use during the specified period.The inspection frequencies are only recommendations. The schedule of inspection heavily depends on the following factors:• environment• load cycles• regulatory requirements• operating time• testing• repairs• re manufacture
Non-periodic inspection
A complete, on-job, shut-down inspection equivalent to the periodical Category III or Category IV should be made before (if anticipated) and after critical jobs (e.g., running heavy casing / drill strings, jarring, pulling on stuck pipes and/or operating at extreme low temperatures) <-20° C (<-4° F).
Inspection
A thorough inspection should be carried out periodically (every 3 months) or as special circumstances may require. Before starting an inspection disconnect any hydraulic/pneumatic system and remove all foreign materials (dirt, paint, grease Oil, scale, etc.) from surface by a suitable method. After a field inspection, it is advisable to record the extent of testing and testing results. Conduct the periodic or critical load inspection in the field by the crew with the supervisor. If cracks, excessive wear etc. is recognized, contact Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorized service company.
Inspection of Hydraulic/Pneumatic System
Check for leakage every day. Should internal or external leakage reach an unacceptable high level, contact Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorized service company.

Critical Load Inspection
Critical loads may occur. For example: impact loads such as jarring, pulling on stuck pipe, etc. If critical loads occurred unexpectedly, conduct the inspection immediately.
Dismantling Inspection
Generally, when the equipment returns to base, warehouse, etc. Carry out the Tool inspection, immediately. Furthermore, control it prior to its being sent on the next job. • The Tool should be dismantled and
inspected in a suitably equipped facility for excessive wear, cracks, flaws or deformations.
• Corrections should be made in accordance with recommendations which can be obtained from Blohm + Voss Oil Tools.
• Weldings at the castings should be done only by Blohm + Voss Oil Tools or an authorized service company in according to Blohm+Voss welding procedure.
• When need is shown in a field inspection, dismantle the Tool and arrange an inspection in a suitably equipped facility.
• Springs should be carefully visually inspected for excessive wear and obvious weakness.
