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 ro-

tary table as possible. The

c a b l e

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 oppo-
site
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.
