MAKING AND BREAKING ROD JOINTS
Always use an approved thread lubricant on rods.
MAKING JOINTS
Insert the new rod into the existing rod clamped in
the breakout.
Rotate the rod 2-3 turns by hand to get threads
started.
Slowly position the carriage so the new rod
threads onto the chuck.
Rotate the spindle - but DO NOT THRUST - allow
the carriage to “walk” forward as the rod and
chuck screw together.
Run the machine over relief to tighten rods prop-
erly.
BREAKING JOINTS
Retract the carriage until the slider angle is even
with the rear notch in the side rail.
Activate the front clamp. Run it over relief.
Actuate the breakot cylinder. The joint at the
breakout should be loose.
Unscrew the rod about halfway out of the
clamped rod.
Retract the Float Indicator to the rear position.
Again, actuate the breakout cylinder.
The joint at the chuck should be loose.
Unscrew the chuck from the rod.
Fully retract the carriage.
Disengage the breakout.
Remove the rod.
IF FRONT JAW SLIPS, RE-ENGAGE TO FULL
SYSTEM PRESSURE.
IF JAWS SLIP, REPLACE THEM IMMEDIATELY.
