Abstract
The invention relates to method for positioning a rock drilling rig and to a rock drilling rig. The rock drilling rig is moved using combustion-engine-free drive equipment with an electric drive motor. The torque is transmitted from the drive motor to the traction wheels over a mechanical anti-slip transmission connection. The ratio between the drive motor rotation rate and the traction wheel rotation rate is kept constantly the same during positioning. The drive motor is not only used for moving but also for stopping.
