Introduction

Thank You for purchasing this

McElroy product

The 1LC fusion machine is small and compact, and offers 

the benefit of McElroy's Patented Centerline Guidance 

System previously offered only in larger machines. The 

1LC butt fuses 1/2" CTS to 1" IPS (16mm - 34mm) 

polyethlene pipe. 
If fusing other thermoplastic pipe materials, refer to the 

pipe manufacturer's fusion procedures or appropriate 

joining standard.

With reasonable care and maintenance, this machine 

will give years of satisfactory service.
Before operating this machine, please read this manual 

thoroughly, and keep a copy with the machine for future 

reference. This manual is to be considered part of your 

machine.
