To use slips (2), install spider bushing (3) into opening of spider (4). This will reduce the size of the opening
to accommodate the slips. To use split bushings (6), install the bushing Into the working base (5).
NOTE
When using drop pipe, use the hoisting plugs supplied with the 1500 Foot Well Completion Kit.
(5)
Set the steel casing by either installing the appropriate casing adapter (1, Figure 2-57) in the casing
coupling (4) and screwing hoisting plug (2) into adapter, or screw the appropriately sized hoisting plug (3)
into casing coupling. The casing adapters furnished in auxiliary kit (168F530) and hoisting plugs furnished
in auxiliary kit (KT-1992-TRSC) are as follows:
Adapter
Hoisting Plug
Casing

DW1293-04
4 1/2' OD casing
167F386
DW1 293-05
6 5/SN OD casing
167F386
DW1293-06
8 5/8" OD casing
167F387
DW1 293-07

(6)
Once the hoisting plug is installed, pick up the casing using the auxiliary drum on drill rig and lower it over
the hole.
(7)
Lower the first casing joint into the hole through the slips or split bushing installed in the base.
NOTE
Step (7) will hold the casing joint at proper elevation.
(8)
Unscrew the adapter, or hoisting plug, from casing coupling and install it on the next casing joint to be
added.
(9)
Pick up the next casing joint using the auxiliary drum on the drill rig, lower it and screw it into the collar on
the top joint setting in the well bore.
(10) Tighten the casing joint to proper torque.
(11) Raise the casing string slightly and remove slips or split bushings. Then lower casing string until top of
string is at appropriate location and slips or split bushings are installed.
NOTE
In certain applications, the first part of the string may be screen instead of solid casing. The procedure
remains the same.
(12) Repeat procedure until complete string is installed.
