Make the Cut
1. Connect the proper power supply.
2. Use the variable speed control knob on the top of the motor (on electric motor drives) to
adjust the cutting speed.
3. Rotate the feed Handle clockwise to bring the Cutting Head and tube closer together.
The machining operation begins when the tool bit contacts the tube or pipe.
4. If the tube end is not square to the tube axis, the tool bit will contact only a small
segment of the tube during each revolution.
5. To avoid tool bit damage, use a slow feed rate until the tool bit is contacting the pipe
continually during at least one revolution. Refer to section 6, Cutting Speeds and Feeds.
6. Continue rotating the Feed Handle clockwise until the end of the pipe is completely
machined. Do not let the tool bit(s) cut into the Saddles or the Saddle Adapter.
7. Discontinue the feed and allow the Cutting Head to rotate one to three revolutions to
improve the finish of the prep surface.
8. Rotate the Feed handle counter-clockwise to separate the Cutting Head from the tube.
9. Stop the tool rotation by releasing the Motor Trigger Switch.
10. Rotate the Feed Handle counter-clockwise until the Cutting Head clears the tube or
pipe by at least 1/8” (3 mm) or more.
11. Loosen the upper Saddle by rotating the Saddle Handle Assembly. This will release the
tube.
