This operator instructions manual goes well beyond a basic start-up guide. It walks you through the complete daily routine of a Boomer L1 C or L2 C rig, from pre-start inspection through to shutting down at the end of a shift. The control system chapter breaks down the RCS (Rig Control System) menus in detail, so you can navigate drilling parameters, settings, statistics and event logs with confidence. For rigs equipped with automation, the ABC Regular and ABC Total chapters explain contour control, navigation methods and automatic drilling sequences step by step. The electrical system chapter covers four different cabinet standards (IEC, Australian, Canada, USA), making this manual relevant across different regional configurations. Maintenance-focused operators will find the daily inspection checklist, freeze prevention measures and lubrication guidance particularly useful for keeping the rig in reliable condition.

Technical Specifications Covered

The manual includes the manufacturer’s technical data tables for both rig families. For the Boomer L1 C and Rocket Boomer L1 C: length 13.8–16.1 m, width 2.21 m, height with protective roof 2.27–2.97 m, height with cab 3.00 m (std) or 2.80–3.25 m (option), weight 17–19 tonnes, installed diesel engine power 115 kW, max longitudinal inclination 14 degrees, ambient temperature range 0 to +40 degrees C, noise level at operator’s station 80 dB(A), radiated acoustic power 121.9 dB(A), and vibration level below 0.5 m/s². For the Boomer L2 C and Rocket Boomer L2 C: width 2.9 m with side platforms, height with protective roof 2.4–3.1 m, height with cab 3.1 m (std) or 2.90–3.35 m (option), weight 24–30 tonnes, and the same 115 kW diesel engine power rating. Electric power capacity, voltage and frequency are listed on the rig’s data plate.

Operator Panel and Control System Detail

A substantial portion of the manual is dedicated to the operator panel and the RCS control system. You get full explanations of the screen buttons, keypads, drilling lever functions and positioning levers, including the specific roles of each button on the left and right button units. The control system chapter covers the main menu, drilling direct selection menu, settings menu, statistics menu, angle indication and contour control menus, modules menu, levers menu, guards menu, event log and save log functions. System monitoring is explained through information symbols, text messages and general messages, with a dedicated table of ABC Total messages and their causes and actions. This level of detail means you can troubleshoot faults using the same on-screen information the rig displays, rather than guessing at what a warning symbol means.

Why This Atlas Copco Boomer Operator Manual Matters

Operating a Boomer L1 C or L2 C without the manufacturer’s instructions is a risk not worth taking. This manual gives you the exact control layouts, safety warnings and operating sequences that Atlas Copco designed for these rigs. From correctly activating a boom and positioning the feeder to understanding the RCS control system’s drilling menus and interpreting warning symbols, every procedure is documented in clear, step-by-step language with supporting illustrations.

For maintenance and troubleshooting, the daily inspection checklist helps you catch faults early, while the electrical system chapter supports fault-finding across multiple cabinet standards. The MWD logging section explains how to activate and interpret Measure While Drilling data for rock characterisation. If your rig has the Safe Bolting System, the extension drilling equipment or a Swellex pump, those chapters are included too. The service platform chapter covers both operator-station control and cage-mounted control, with emergency stop and emergency operation procedures.
