Technical description
Ranger 700 is a hydraulic, self-propelled, self-conĆ
tained, crawler based surface drilling rig equipped with a
cabin (F.O.P.S. and R.O.P.S.) and rod handling system. It
drills vertical, inclined or horizontal holes with a diameter
of 64 - 115 mm (2 1/2" - 4 1/2") utilizing 38, 45 or 51 mm
(1 1/2", 1 3/4" or 2") extension rods.
Ranger 700 is equipped with HL 700, hydraulic top hamĆ
mer rock drill. With high rotation torque, sufficient flushing
and sophisticated ergonomic drilling control system the
rig is well suited also in very fractured rock conditions.
The rock drill and articulated boom are mounted on the
turnable superstructure giving a drilling coverage of over
17 m2 (190 sq - ft).
Two variable displacement pumps and two gear pumps
are directly driven from one end of Caterpillar diesel enĆ
gine, while the compressor is powered from the other end
of the engine via cogged belt. Powerpack is mounted
crosswise at the rear end of the superstructure to keep
counterweight on the opposite side of the boom and feed
regardless of the drilling direction.

Ranger 700 has an ergonomic cabin to increase operaĆ
tor's safety and visibility. The cabin is certified for R.O.P.S.
(ISO-3471 Roll-Over protection Structure) and F.O.P.S.
(ISO-3449 Falling Object Protection Structure). WinĆ
dows are laminated for added safety. The noise level in
the cabin is less than 80 dB(A). To keep dust at a miniĆ
mum, the cabin is fitted with efficient filters for incoming
fresh air. Adjustable seat, good visibility, adequate lightĆ
ing and an optimum working temperature are among the
many features ensuring a good operating environment.
Drilling functions are proportionally controlled by one hyĆ
draulic joy-stick. Several routine functions e.g. antijamĆ
ming are executed automatically. There are fewer levers
to make it easy to use. Driving, rear jack and winch conĆ
trol can be done outside the cabin from the optional reĆ
mote control box.
Typical applications for Ranger 700 are road cutting,
pipe-line drilling and foundation drilling, as well as proĆ
duction drilling in medium size quarries. Therefore RangĆ
er 700 is most often used by construction contractors,
mines and quarries, and also included in the equipment
fleet of rental houses as well.
