Begin Facing
Turn facer on by opening valve (
A
) on top of the facer.
Move the pressure selector control (
B
) to the top (facing pressure)
position.
The facing pressure should be set as low as possible while still facing
pipe. Excessive facing pressure can damage the facer. It may be
necessary to adjust the facing pressure.
Facer blades are sharp and can cut. Never
attempt to remove shavings while the facer is
running, or is in the facing position between the
jaws. Use care when operating the facer, and
when handling the facer.
Move the carriage directional control (
C
) to the left to close the
carriage and begin facing. Continue to face the pipe until the
facer guide rod bracket bottoms out on the jaws (
D
).
Shift carriage directional control (
C
) to the center (neutral) position,
and allow facer to turn 2 to 3 additional revolutions.
Turn facer off (
A
).

After Facing
Move the carriage directional control to the right and allow the
carriage to open completely. Center the facer in between the pipe
ends to avoid dragging the guide rod bracket on the pipe ends.
Swing facer to the out position.
Self Retracting Heater:
The facer can be positioned to the right
and locked into a detent to prevent the facer from floating.
Use the machine keyswitch to turn the engine off before
entering the unit for maintenance or chip removal. Death
or serious injury could result if the engine remains on and
the hydraulics are activated while personnel are between
movable machine parts.
Clean shavings out of pipe ends and from between the jaws. Do
not touch faced pipe ends.
Use the machine keyswitch to restart the engine.
