Hawk Industries Hawkjaw Jr. Manual 65K-2GJR Serial Numbers 10 to 20 - Manual (Page 9)

Hanging Cable Location
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'-4' ft. of the rotary table center.

HawkJaw Location
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 the opposite side of the setback zone. If the rig has dual
setback zones, Step 1 applies.
3. The HawkJaw may rest on the rig floor 3' -5' ft. away from the rotary table.
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' away from the rotary table).
