Equipment
Holes are dug with an Ace Drilling designed digger which has
side slew
and downwards pressure. Hole sizes of 250mm up to 600mm diameter
are available.
Maximum
depth of holes is 1.5 metres.
Reef (rock) drilling
and tree holes are also available.
Access
For access, the tractors require 2.0 metres in width and 2.0
metres in
height in clearance. Ramps are employed to allow access to the
inside
of brickwork (maximum four courses).
Site Mark Out
Ace Drilling operators will only drill stump holes at locations
marked by
the supervising personnel, so jobs require marking out prior
to
arrival.
All hole locations shall be clearly
marked with lime, paint or
wooden
pegs.
No string lines should be left after marking out, as our machinery needs clear access.
Likewise, no metal pegs (eg star
pickets) are
allowed as these can damage our equipment.
