12.2 HOW TO USE THE ROLLER TRACK
A. When the pipe end is adequately round and within the nominal size ( not
oversize), follow the instruction :
The pipe is lifted to the roller track using
a crane and lifting straps.
(The mass centre of the pipe must be in
between the first and the last roll of the
roller track).
Lift the roller track a little higher than
the pipe clamp lower surface. (5-25 mm)
If the pipe is not within nominal size, it
will not fit into the clamps.
NOTE!
¨
The pipe must be lowered to the roller track in a controlled manner
to avoid damaging the track. A falling track will cause a high risk of injury!
Push the pipe into the machine opening,
steer it to the clamps and into the
machine so, that the pipe end touches
the forming pin.
Lower the track and close clamps
simultaneously. The pipe is still
supported with the lifting straps!
Check that the pipe does not press the
roller track (if the pipe is not straight,
the end of the pipe may press the track
when clamps are closed).
