filter into the pan. Insert chip tray from the rear.
Fill with 2 Itrs. of thread cutting oil. Never run the machine without
thread cutting oil.
2.3. Electrical supply
Before connecting the machine, check that the mains voltage corre-
sponds with the voltage specified on the rating plate. Use extension
cord with earth wiring only. The machine is switched on and off by
means of the foot switch (21, Tornado / 4, Magnum). Switch (18, Tor-
nado / 3, Magnum) is used to preselect the direction of rotation and
speed. The machine can only be switched on when the emergency-
off button (22, Tornado / 5, Magnum) is released and the protection
switch (23, Tornado / 6, Magnum) on the pedal switch is depressed.
If the machine is connected directly to the mains (without a plug), a
16 A main switch must be installed.
2.4. Cooling lubricant
Perfect threading results, long durability of dies as well as utmost pro-
tection of the machine are achieved with REMS cooling lubricant.
REMS Spezial cooling lubricant (containing mineral oil) is highly
alloyed and suitable for cutting pipe and bolt threads of all types. In
addition, it can be washed off with water (officially approved). Mineral
oil-based cooling lubricants are not permitted to be used on drinking
water pipes in certain countries, e.g. Germany, Austria. In this case,
use REMS Sanitol, which contains no mineral oil.
REMS Sanitol cooling lubricant is free of mineral oil, is synthetic, com-
pletely water soluble and possesses the lubricating properties of mi-
neral oil. Its use is compulsory in Germany and Austria for drinking
water installations and complies with the officially applicable regula-
tions (DVGW Approval No. DW-0201AS2032; OEVGW Approval No.
W 1.303; SVGW Approval No. 7808-649).
Use all types of cooling lubricant undiluted!
2.5. Material support
Pipes and bars longer than 2 m must be additionally supported by the
height-adjustable REMS Herkules, fitted with steel balls, posing no
problems for moving rods and pipes in all directions without tipping
over the material support. If the REMS Magnum is mounted on a work-
bench, the REMS Herkules Y must be used.
Capacity of REMS Herkules and REMS Herkules Y: Ø
2.6. REMS 4"automatic die head
When using the REMS 4"automatic die head, observe the operating
instructions supplied with the die head.
3. Operation
3.1. Tools
The die head (8, Tornado / 12, Magnum) is a universal die head. That
means for all types of threads for above mentioned sizes, divided in
2 tool sets, only one die head is required. For cutting tapered pipe
threads, the length stop (9, Tornado / 13, Magnum) needs to be in the
same direction with the closing and opening lever (10, Tornado / 14,
Magnum). To cut cylindrical long threads and bolt threads, the length
stop (9, Tornado / 13, Magnum) has to be folded away.
Changing dies
The dies can be inserted or changed with the die head mounted on
the machine or detached (i.e. on a bench). Slacken clamping lever
(11, Tornado / 15, Magnum) but do not remove it. Push the adjusting
disc (12, Tornado / 16, Magnum) at the handle away from the clam-
ping lever to the far end position. In this position the dies are put in or
taken out. Ensure that the indicated size of thread shown on the back
of the dies corresponds to the size of thread to be cut. Furthermore,
ensure that the numbers shown on the back of the dies correspond
with those indicated on the die holder (14, Tornado / 17, Magnum).
Insert the dies into the die head as far as the ball inside the slot of the
die holder snaps in. Once all dies are set, adjust the size of thread by
shifting the adjusting disc. Bolt thread must always be set to „Bolt".
Clamp the adjusting disc with the clamping lever, close the die head
by pressing the closing and opening lever (10, Tornado / 14, Magnum)
down slightly to the right. The die head opens either automatically (with
tapered pipe threads), or at any time manually by slight pressure to
the left on the closing and opening lever.
If the holding power of the clamping lever (11, Tornado / 15, Magnum)
is insufficient (e.g. through blunt dies) when the 2½– 4" die head is in
use, due to the increased cutting force applied, with the result that the
die head opens under cutting pressure, the capscrew on the side
opposite the clamping lever (11, Tornado / 15, Magnum) must also be
tightened.
The pipe cutter (15, Tornado / 18, Magnum) cuts pipes ¼ –2", resp.
2½– 4".
The reamer (16, Tornado / 19, Magnum) deburs pipes ¼ –2" resp.
2½– 4". To avoid rotation, latch the reamer sleeve into the reamer arm
either in the front or in the back end, depending on the position of the pipe.
3.2. Chuck Tornado (19) and (20)
The self-clamping jaws open and close automatically through left or
right turning of the switch (18) and operating the foot switch (21). Pay
attention when changing rear and front clamping jaws that the parti-
cular clamping jaws are fitted in corresponding to fig. 4 and 5, as other-
wise damage will arise. On no account switch on the machine until all
clamping jaws and both clamping jaw covers have been fitted.
A size adjusted clamping sleeve (Art.-No. 343001) is required for sizes
< 8 mm when operating with Magnum up to 2" and Tornado, for Magnum
up to 4" < 20 mm. When ordering the clamping sleeve the required
clamping size needs to be provided.
Quick action hammer chuck Magnum
The front quick action hammer chuck with the large clamping ring and
the movable chuck jaws installed in the chuck jaw carriers ensures
secure, concentric clamping with the minimum of force.
Changing the chuck jaws
With the clamping ring (22), close the chuck jaws (24) to a clamping
diameter of approx. 30 mm. Remove screws of chuck jaws (24). Slide
chuck jaws out towards the rear by using an appropriate tool (screw
driver). Slide new chuck jaws into the chuck jaw carrier from the front.
3.3. Operation Tornado
Swing out the tools and bring the tool holder to the right-hand end-po-
sition by means of contact lever (5). Feed in the material so that it pro-
jects approx. 10 cm out of the chuck (19). Swing down and close the
die head (8). Set switch (18) to position 1, then operate footswitch (21);
the material will now be clamped automatically. On types 2010 and
1
/ – 4".
8
2020, the second operating speed can be selected for sectioning,
deburring and small thread cutting operations. To do this, with the ma-
chine running, slowly move switch (18) from position 1 to position 2.
With the contact lever (5), advance the die head onto the rotating ma-
terial.
After one or two threads have been cut, the die head will continue to
cut automatically. In the case of tapered pipe threads, the die head
opens automatically when the standard length of thread is reached.
When cutting extended threads or bolt threads, open the die head ma-
nually, with the machine running. Release foot switch (21). Set switch
(18) to R. Depress foot switch (21) briefly to release the material.
Threads of unlimited length can be cut by reclamping the material, as
follows. When the tool holder approaches the machine housing during
the thread cutting process, release foot switch (21) but do not open
the die head. Set switch (18) to R. Release the material and bring the
tool holder and material to the right-hand end-position by means of
the contact lever. Switch on the machine again by setting the switch
to position 1. For pipe cutting operations, swing in the pipe cutter (15)
and bring it to the desired cutting position by means of the contact
lever. The pipe is cut by rotating the spindle clockwise. The resulting
inside burr after cutting will be deburred with the reamer (16).
To drain the thread cutting oil:
Take off the hose of the tool holder (2) and hold it into a container.
Keep the machine running until the tray is empty. Or: take off the tray
and empty it using the pouring spout (17).
Operation Magnum
Swing out the tools and move the tool carrier to the right-hand end po-
sition with the aid of the pressing lever (8). Pass the material to be
threaded through the opened guide (2) and through the opened chuck
(1) so that it extends by about 10 cm from the chuck. Close the chuck
until the jaw comes against the material and then, after a short ope-
ning movement, jerk it shut once or twice in order to clamp the mate-
rial firmly. Closing the guide chuck (2) centers the material that ex-
tends from the rear of the machine. Swing down and close the die
head. Set the switch (3) to position 1, then operate the foot switch (4).
