/ Operating and Maintenance Instructions Manual
The ram speed adjustment is factory set for roll
grooving steel pipe. If the pipe being grooved
is another material, the ram speed must be
re-adjusted.
1.
Open the top enclosure.
2.
Insert the key into the ram speed control
valve, as shown. Turn to unlock.
3.
With the key inserted in the valve, rotate the
knob until the knob “locks in.” Adjust the valve
to the proper setting, as indicated in the table
below.

* Settings listed are nominal. Adjustment may be
required when different pipe material/grades are
being grooved. Refer to the NOTICE on this page.
NOTICE
• The ram speed control valve affects only
the rate at which the upper roll forms
the groove. It does not affect the rate at
which the upper roll advances to contact
the pipe, nor does it affect the rate at
which the roll retracts at the completion
of the groove.
• Ram speed during the formation of the
groove can have a significant effect on
pipe-end flare. The recommended setting,
listed in the table above, will produce
excellent grooves in most situations.
However, if excessive flare results at
these settings, reduce the settings to
correct the condition. For example, adjust
the setting to 1.8 on steel when flare is
excessive at the 2.0 setting.
