Step 3
Joint Assembly
Insert the prepared ends of the pipe/fitting into both hubs of the Rionfuse CF
coupling. Double check the markings to verify proper seating of the pipe.
Step 4
Connecting Lead Cables
The installer must make sure the joint is properly supported during the fusion cycle
and afterwards as the joint cools to ambient. For underground installation the
joint must be protected from soil falling into the fusion assembly area. If ambient
temperature has dropped below 60F in the last 24 hrs, we recommend the use of
warming blankets to support, wrap, and protect the pipe during the fusion process.
With the Rionfuser unit connected to a dedicated power source and powered ON,
connect the lead cables to the coupling.
Step 5
Selecting Fitting Style
The unit will now prompt the installer to “SELECT FITTING STYLE”. Scroll UP or
DOWN to highlight the proper fitting style being fused, then press START to select
the fitting style.
