ROLL CHANGING
VE268 Roll Grooving Tools are designed
with rolls to accommodate several pipe sizes
and materials, which eliminates the need for
frequent roll changes.
When a different pipe size or material is required
for grooving, the upper and lower rolls must be
changed. For proper roll selection, refer to the
“Tool Rating and Roll Selection” section.
TRAVEL STOP KNOB REMOVAL
This applies for the following sizes:
3/4 inch/26.9 mm NPS size
1–11/2 inch/33.7–48.3 mm NPS sizes
2–31/2 inch/60.3–101.6 mm NPS sizes
2–6 inch/54.0–155.6 mm copper tubing sizes
When the travel stop knob is installed for the
above-listed pipe/tubing sizes, travel of the arm/
upper roll assembly is limited. Before attempting
to change rolls, the travel stop knob must be
removed so that the arm/upper roll can return to
its highest position.
1.
Turn on the main power supply to the tool
(main breaker panel, knife switch, etc.).
2.
Turn the power switch on the side of the
tool to the “ON” position. Turn the selector
switch on the side of the tool to the “JOG”
position.
3.
Depress and hold down the safety foot
switch until the arm/upper roll assembly
does not contact the threaded portion of
the travel stop knob. Release the safety
foot switch, and withdraw foot from the
switch.
4.
Unscrew the travel stop knob from the tool
body by turning counterclockwise. Store
the travel stop knob in the tool cabinet.
