If roll grooving will not be performed for an
extended time period, turn off the hydraulic
system by pushing the “EMERGENCY STOP”
button on the control panel.
NOTICE
• If pipe remains lodged on the lower roll:
Jogging the lower roll will free the pipe.
DO NOT attempt to pull the pipe out of
the rolls while “jogging” the lower roll.
Pull the “EMERGENCY STOP” button
on the control panel and the electrical
enclosure to the out position, depress the
“RESET” button, then push down (in) on
the “EMERGENCY STOP” button on the
control panel and the electrical enclosure
to “jog” the lower roll.
• The groove diameter shall be within
specification for the diameter and wall
thickness of pipe. The groove diameter
should be checked and adjusted, as
necessary, to ensure grooves remain
within specification.
ROLL CHANGING
VE414/415MC 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 shall be
changed. For proper roll selection, refer to the
“Tool Rating and Roll Selection” section.
WARNING
• Upper and lower rolls are matched
components and shall not be intermixed.
• 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.

(circuit breaker panel, knife switch, etc.).
