10. Hold the guard setting pad firmly against the
pipe. Push it under the adjustable guards.
11. Loosen the wing nuts, and adjust each
guard to lightly pinch the pad against the pipe.
Tighten the wing nuts to secure the guards in
position.
12.
Remove the guard setting pad from between
the pipe and the guards. Return the guard setting
pad to its storage location.

selector switch to the “NORMAL” position. The
arm/upper roll assembly will return to its upper
position, and the pipe will release.
CAUTION
• Use the “JOG” setting only for pre-
operation adjustments to the tool. When
the tool is left in the “JOG” setting with
the power on, the pipe will be gradually
released. This may result in the pipe
falling out of the tool.
• Always return the switch to the
“NORMAL” setting at the completion of
the pre-operation adjustments.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in personal injury, product damage,
and/or property damage.
PIPE STABILIZER ADJUSTMENT
WARNING
• Always turn off the main power supply
to the tool before making any tool
adjustments.
• DO NOT reach over pipe while making
adjustments.
• DO NOT make adjustments while the tool/
pipe is in operation/motion.
Failure to follow these instructions could
result in serious personal injury.
The pipe stabilizer for the VE414/415MC is
designed to prevent pipe sway of short and long
pipe lengths. When the stabilizer is adjusted for
a selected pipe size and wall thickness, it does
not require further adjustment unless pipe of a
different size and wall thickness will be grooved.
Pipe of the same size and wall thickness can be
moved in and out of the tool without retracting
the stabilizer.
