1. Inspect the Pipe Stand before each use. NEVER use if any legs or other part of the stand is bent,
deformed, broken or has been modified.
2. Place the Pipe Stand on a smooth, level, firm surface that will support the weight of the load. Be
sure all feet of the stand make contact with the floor.
3. With no load on the Pipe Stand, loosen the T-screw. Grasp the quick height adjustment tube and lift
to desired height. NOTE: DO NOT raise the quick height adjustment tube past the sight hole. If you
are not able to see the quick height adjustment tube in the sight hole, lower the quick height
adjustment tube until it completely fills the sight hole. Release the quick height adjustment tube and
ensure that the lock ring has engaged. This will help prevent the quick height adjustment tube from
lowering further. NOTE: ALWAYS
make sure the lock ring is properly
placed on the lock ring retainer and
the roll pin is in place. See Figure 5.
4. Securely tighten the T-screw.
5. Turn the height adjustment nut to
the desired height. For adjustment
purposes, leave approximately 2"
to 3" of thread showing under the
“V”. NOTE: use only hand pressure
to turn the height adjustment nut.
6. Place the pipe onto the pipe stands.
Be sure the pipe rests in the center
of the V-Head and that the pipe is
level as it sits on the pipe stands.
NOTE: After pipe is removed from the stands, lower the stands by loosening the T-Screw. Then
securely grasp the quick height adjustment tube and lift up on the tabbed end of the lock ring.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. DO NOT move the stand(s) until the pipe has been removed.
2. Remove the pipe hold down device if it is being used.
3. Turn the height adjustment nut to fully lower the head assembly.
4. Loosen the T-screw.
5. Securely grasp the quick height adjustment tube and lift up on the tabbed end of the lock ring.
While continuing to lift the lock ring, COMPLETELY lower the quick height adjustment tube.
Place the alignment hole in line with the lock ring retainer.
6. To secure the stand for transport, tighten the T-screw through the transport hole in the quick
height adjustment tube until it tightens. Stand will then be ready for transport.

WARNING
ALWAYS support the pipe with a minimum of two (2) Pipe Stands. Place stands to properly support the pipe.
Pipe size, weight and length are some of the factors to consider when supporting pipe with the Pipe Stands.
WARNING
NEVER drop the pipe onto the pipe stands. NEVER exceed the maximum rated capacity of the pipe stands. To
avoid tipping, be sure the Pipe Stands are properly aligned, the pipe rests in the center of the V-Head and the
pipe is level as it sits on the pipe stands. Never allow anyone under the pipe while it is supported by the stands.
