PRE-OPERATION CHECKS AND
ADJUSTMENTS
Every Victaulic roll grooving tool is checked,
adjusted, and tested at the factory prior to
shipment . However, before operating the tool,
the following checks and adjustments should be
made to verify proper tool operation . In addition,
the tool should be inspected for any damage
that may have occurred during shipping and
handling .
DANGER
• Before making any tool
adjustments, disconnect
the power cord from the
electrical source.
Accidental startup of the tool
could result in serious personal
injury.
GROOVING ROLLS
Verify that the proper roll set is installed on the
tool for the pipe size to be grooved . Roll sets are
marked with the pipe size and part number . If
the proper roll set is not installed on the tool,
refer to the “Roll Changing” section .
CAUTION
• Verify that the upper and lower grooving
rolls are a matched set.
Failure to follow these instructions could
damage the tool and cause product failure,
resulting in property damage or personal
injury.
PIPE PREPARATION
For proper tool operation and production of
grooves that are within Victaulic specifications,
the following guidelines must be followed .
1 . Victaulic recommends square-cut pipe with
grooved-end pipe products . Roll grooving
beveled-end pipe may result in unacceptable
flare, leaks, or joint failure .
2 . Raised internal and external weld beads,
seams, and burrs must be ground flush with
the pipe surface, 2 inches/50 mm back from
the pipe ends .
3 . All coarse scale, dirt, and other foreign
material must be removed from the interior
and exterior surfaces of the pipe ends .
CAUTION
• For maximum grooving roll life, remove
foreign material from the interior and
exterior surfaces of the pipe ends.
Foreign material may interfere with or
damage grooving rolls, resulting in leaks
and property damage.
