CONSIDERATIONS FOR USING
PRODUCTION ESTIMATED GRAPHS:
●
Machine rips full-time — no dozing.
●
Power shift tractors with single shank rippers.
●
100% efficiency (60 min hour).
●
Charts are for all classes of material.
●
In igneous rock with seismic velocity of 8000 fps
(2450 mps) or higher for the D11T, and 6000 fps
(1830 mps) or higher for the D10T2, D9R/D9T and
D8R/D8T, the production figures shown should be
reduced by 25%.
●
Upper limit of charts reflect ripping under ideal con-
ditions only. If conditions such as thick lamination,
vertical lamination or any factor which would adversely
affect production are present, the lower limit should
be used.
