CAUTION
• Use the “JOG” mode only for making
adjustments to the tool and for roll
changes. When the tool is left in “JOG”
mode with the power on, the pipe will
gradually release and fall out of the tool.
• Always turn the selector switch to the
“NORMAL” position when finished making
adjustments to the tool.
Failure to follow this instruction could result
in personal injury and property damage.
8.
Complete all adjustments and groove the
pipe. Refer to the applicable “Grooving
Operation” section. Observe the stabilizer
roller while grooving. It should remain in
contact with the pipe, and the pipe should
rotate smoothly without swaying from side
to side. If the pipe is not rotating smoothly
or is swaying from side to side, discontinue
grooving and adjust the stabilizer roller
further. Continue the grooving operation
and make further adjustments, as
necessary. DO NOT adjust the stabilizer
roller too far inward, since it will skew the
pipe to the left and off center, resulting in
excessive pipe-end flare.
RAM SPEED CONTROL VALVE
ADJUSTMENT
The ram speed control valve is factory set for
roll grooving most pipe within the tool’s capacity.
When excessive pipe flare or tool “stalling”
occurs, the ram speed may require adjustment.
1.
Turn the power switch on the side of the
tool to the “OFF” position.
2.
Turn the ram speed control valve knob
clockwise
2–3 revolutions to reduce flow.
NOTE:
The Ram Speed Control Valve features
both color coding and numerical readout for
easy reference.
