Special Instructions for Assembling 2” Wide Drive Chain
As shown on the right, all sections of the chain have one female end and one male end. One outside
link on the female end of the chain is stamped with the Chain Section Number.
In assembling the chain, always start with the basic length marked 6 (42” long section) and add the
required number of sections of chain, in the proper sequence, until the desired length is obtained.
EXAMPLE: Assemble Chain for 12” pipe. Start with the basic length marked 6 and add to it, in
sequence, the pieces marked 8, 10, & 12. If this chain is correctly assembled it will be the proper
length to be threaded through the Trav-LCutter and wrapped around a 12” pipe as shown in the 1st
picture under Wheel Settings and Chain Lengths on the inside front cover of this manual.

When cutting medium and large diameter thin wall steel pipe it may be found that the
prescribed length of chain will be too long to be properly tensioned. If this is the case,
remove a section of chain so that the total length will be of a size that can be properly
tensioned.
