Kleiss MCS60-38 System Manual v.15 May 2020  

|

www.MainlineControlSystems.com

If cutting through steel or cast iron, grease the 

cutter and pilot drill with the cutting grease for 

better drilling results.

If cutting through PE or PVC, skip this step.

Grease rod with silicone grease for a smooth 

installation. Then, install the drilling rod through 

the hot tapping device and dome. 

Install the cutter onto the drilling rod and tighten 

the cutter.

Retract the drilling rod and cutter completely into 

the drilling dome. No part of the cutter should be 

visible.

When retracted into the drilling dome, the cutter 

should be in the position as shown in the picture.
