Tracker Control
Overview
This mode allows the Ditch Witch
®
Tracker operator to disable hydraulic power to drilling unit thrust and
rotation.
Use tracker control any time you change downhole tools or during other times when the drill string is
exposed. Tracker control works by stopping communication between the tracker and the display. When
this happens, the green tracker control light on the drilling unit flashes and thrust and rotation are disabled.
Read operator’s manual. Know how to use all controls.
Your safety is at stake.
IMPORTANT: This mode does not disable thrust and rotation immediately. Functions are disabled within
16 seconds. Thrust and rotation are disabled when green light on drilling unit is flashing.
