Operation of the threading machine

5.1 Clamping the workpieces
The tool carriage can make contact with the frame before the thread cutting process
has ended and the clamping chuck and the machine can be damaged as a result! A
clearance of at least 70 mm must therefore be maintained between the thread cut on
the workpiece and the clamping chuck!
 Move the pipe cutter and the die head up so that they are not in the way and position the in-
ternal deburrer on the rear side.
 Insert the workpiece from the centring chuck side (fig. 1) and tighten the centring chuck (fig.
2).
 Hold the workpiece on the clamping chuck side securely with your right hand and gradually
tighten it with the clamping chuck (fig. 3).
 Ensure that the three clamping jaws are in contact with the workpiece.
If the three clamping jaws are not in contact with the workpiece, it will wobble and
neither cutting nor thread cutting can be performed correctly.
 Clamp the workpiece securely and tighten it very firmly.
In the case of long or heavy pipes, it is essential to use the pipe support Art. No.
56047 in order to prevent the workpiece wobbling or twisting while it is being turned
and to prevent the machine from tipping over due to the weight of the workpiece!
Otherwise, the workpiece and the machine can become unstable!
5.2 Cutting the workpiece with the pipe cutter
Do not touch the cutting surface with bare hands, because it is hot and has
sharp edges! Risk of injury and burning!
If the handle of the pipe cutter is turned with force, the cutting surface of the pipe
takes an oval shape, which makes correct thread cutting impossible. Therefore,
move the handle of the pipe cutter half a turn per whole pipe rotation!
 Move the pipe cutter up so that it is not in the way. Turn the feeder hand wheel clockwise in
order to bring the pipe cutter into the position necessary for cutting the workpiece.
 Move the pipe cutter down onto the workpiece and then press the ON switch or press the
pedal.
 Turn the handle of the pipe cutter powerfully clockwise and start to cut the workpiece.
 Swivel the pipe cutter down and back again.
Do not collect the cut pipes in the trough! Take them out of the trough immediately
after the cutting process ends!
5.3 Reaming the workpieces
The cutting tip of the internal deburrer is very sharp! Do not touch it with bare
hands! Risk of cutting and injury!
 Pull the internal deburrer towards you.
 Turn the feeder hand wheel clockwise and gently press the cutting edge of the reamer
against the inside of the pipe in order to ream.
