Setting and Operating Instructions
Machine # 0,1,2
To set the "Quick-Set" Pipe Cutting/Beveling Machine for cutting and/or beveling, loosen adjustment arm cap screws. Position both left and right adjustment arms to desired pipe size by aligning corresponding graduation mark with cast arrow points located on bosses and tighten cap screws firmly. Double check adjustment setting after tightening cap screws. (Caution should be used not to apply excessive torque on cap screws to prevent thread damage in bosses.
After adjustment arms have been set, mount the "Quick-Set" Beveling Machine on pipe by slipping it over the end of the pipe, or if required, center traveling ring opening by cranking and pull latch knob out to permit the traveling ring to open for straddling of pipe. Close travelling ring and lock in, pushing latch knob in.
Adjust boomer chain to length required by selecting correct chain link to be linked to swivel snap. Correct chain length should permit boomer hook to be hooked onto adjustment arm link with the boomer in open position. Boomer can now be closed which should secure the "Quick-Set" Beveling Machine firmly to pipe.
Determine desired bevel angle to be cut and set torch clamp to this angle by aligning pointer to degree graduation marks cast in tube adapter. Install torch to desired cutting clearance and cutting lead angle. Tighten both knob and cap screw. The "Quick-Set" Beveling Machine is now ready for cutting and/or beveling.
For best results in starting cutting and/or beveling, preheating is suggested by cranking the traveling ring in short clockwise and counter-clockwise movements before applying oxygen. Crank handle should be rotated clockwise during cutting operation. If electric motorized unit is used, the preheating can be accomplished by switching the operating switch on the speed control to forward and reverse positions as required, before applying oxygen. Switch should be in forward position for cutting operation. Correct selection and periodic cleaning of cutting tip is suggested. Please consult your equipment supplier for additional information.
