THREADING MACHINE SAFETY
1. Machine is made to thread and cut pipe or bolt. Ma-
chine also powers roll grooving equipment. Follow in-
structions in Operator’s Manual on machine uses. Do not
use power drives for other jobs including hole drilling, winch
turning, and making/breaking fittings. Other uses may in-
crease the risk of injury.
2. Secure machine to bench or stand. This prevents tipping.
3. Support long heavy pipe with pipe supports. This pre-
vents tipping.
4. Do not wear gloves or loose clothing. Keep sleeves and
jackets buttoned. If clothing should become caught in the
machine, it will continue to wind up, pulling you into the
machine and possibly resulting in serious injury.
5. Do not reach across the machine or pipe. Operating the
machine from the side with
REV
/
OFF
/
FOR
switch elimi-
nates reaching across.
6. Do not use machine if foot switch is broken or absent.
The foot switch works as a safety device in preventing
serious injury.
7. Tighten chuck handwheel and engage rear centering de-
vice on the pipe before starting the machine.
8. Keep hands away from rotating pipe and fittings. Let
the machine stop completely before touching the work. Wipe
threads and attach fittings only after the machine stops.
9. Keep covers in place. Exposed moving parts may offer a
chance for clothing or body parts to become caught in
the machinery.
MACHINE MAINTENANCE
1. Use sharp cutting tools.
2. Grease front and rear bearings every 8 hours of use.
3. Inspect machine cord. Replace damaged, frayed, bro-
ken or worn machine cord.
4. Inspect extension cords. Repair or replace damaged,
frayed, broken or worn cords.
5. Keep handles dry and clean. Keep free from oil and
grease.
6. When not being used, store machine in a secured,
locked area, out of reach of
children and people unfamiliar
with the threading
machine.
7. Keep foot switch in
working order.
