Vic-Easy

®

Series VE414 is a fully motorized, semi-automatic hydraulic feed tool for

roll grooving pipe to prepare it to receive Victaulic grooved pipe couplings. The VE414 is designed to
roll groove pipe of various materials and wall thicknesses (see Tool Rating and Roll Selection charts

on pages 33 and 34).

This tool and manual contains trademarks, copyrights and/or patented features which are the exclu-

sive property of Victaulic Company of America.

POWER REQUIREMENTS

VE414 is designed to operate on 220/440 volt, 3 phase, 60 Hertz power supply. The tool is shipped
with wiring set for 220 volt operation unless otherwise specified on the order. To re-wire for 440 volt
service refer to the Electrical Schematic on page 32 and the name plate data on the drive motor
name plate. The 220 volt service requires a minimum of 20 amp circuit protection. VE414 compo-
nents are all grounded to the tool frame. Be certain frame is properly grounded. For other voltages
and frequencies, contact the Victaulic Tool Company.

NOTICE

Drawings and/or pictures in this manual may be exaggerated for clarity.

• This tool should only be used for roll grooving pipe designated in the Tool Rating and Roll Selection charts on pages

33 and 34.

Use of the tool for other purposes or exceeding the pipe thickness maximums will overload the tool, shorten tool life
and may cause tool damage.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, check the electrical source for proper grounding.

• Before performing any repair or maintenance, disconnect the tool from the electrical source.

Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury or death.
