Normet Charmec 9810B Operator, Lubrication, Maintenance Manual

This manual is what I’d keep on hand for running and looking after a Charmec 9810B in an underground mine or tunnel, where you’re charging blast holes on rough ground with poor visibility. It helps you plan routine services, pick the right grease and oils, and understand how the machine should feel and respond under load, so you can catch problems before they turn into breakdowns. For example, if the basket boom starts moving unevenly or feels “jerky” when you’re lining up to a face, this book helps you trace whether it’s an operating issue, a lubrication miss, or something that needs deeper mechanical attention.

Applications & Use Cases

• Plan daily and weekly checks so you don’t miss critical joints, cylinders, and steering components.
• Verify lubrication points and intervals to avoid premature wear on boom and charging equipment.
• Confirm correct operating procedures for driving and positioning on uneven, wet, or broken ground.
• Troubleshoot odd noises, slow functions, or overheating by checking likely maintenance and lubrication causes.
• Train new operators on safe control use, load awareness, and how the machine should behave under normal duty.

FAQ

Q: Can I keep this manual on a tablet underground?

A: Yes, just download it and use a rugged or well-protected device; zooming helps when checking diagrams in low light.

Q: Should I still print parts of it?

A: I’d print the lubrication and routine check pages and keep them in a plastic sleeve on the service bench or in the service truck.

Safety Note

Always follow the lockout, support, and depressurizing steps in the manual before inspecting or working under any raised component.
