Hawk Industries Hawkjaw Sr. Manual ALS Serial Numbers 1 to 100 - Manual (Page 2)

Introduction
Hawk's design philosophy is simple: Design with the end user in mind. Make it tough,
dependable and easy to maintain.
Hawk has designed the HawkJaw with this same simple formula.
FEATURES
The HawkJaw 100K-ALS is a hanging unit that will spin, make up and break out drill pipe. It is
revolutionary because the tool spins and makes up drill pipe or breaks out and spins drill pipe in
12 seconds or less. A patented self-energized grip system provides consistent torque values to
the drill string. Consistent torque ensures that wash outs and "post tightening" down hole do not
occur under normal conditions.
A patented adjustable wrench system eliminates the need for separate jaws, spinning wrench
rollers or gripping dies. The HawkJaw's modular design enables the unit to be maintained on the
rig floor.
SAFETY
The HawkJaw 100K-ALS provides a fast, safe and efficient method of spinning and make up or
break out and spinning. It eliminates costly and dangerous spinning chain and rig tong accidents.
TIME AND LABOR SAVINGS
The HawkJaw improves trip time over any comparable torquing and spinning device in the
industry. The unit easily adapts to any land or offshore rig because it hangs in the derrick.
Handles mounted near the control buttons enable one rig hand to move the hanging unit on and
off the pipe.
Control buttons are used to grip, torque and spin drill pipe. Drillers and operators of the
HawkJaw 100K-ALS work more efficiently and suffer less fatigue on long round trips. The unit
saves trip time because the HawkJaw breaks out and spins in 12 seconds or less, and makes up
and spins in 10 seconds or less. Crew fatigue is reduced, pipe is properly torqued and the work is
efficient.
