6. Set the desired bevel land width (Figure 3) using the
land width adjust-
ment gage. If set to
"0" there will be no
land on the end of
the pipe. Each step

7 . Confirm that the cutter head is fully retracted and not
in contact with the work piece. With dry hands, plug the
beveller power cord into a properly grounded out-

Setting
Assume a proper operating position (Figure 13).
• Stand at the back of the machine, facing the hand
crank with good access to the ON/OFF switch.
• Be sure you have good balance and do not have
to overreach.
Depress the ON button (I). After motor comes up to
speed, yellow indicator lights should be ON.
Figure 13 – Proper Operating Position
8. Using a smooth continuous clockwise rotation of the
cutter feed screw (Figure 12); engage the cutter head
into the work piece until the stop contacts the land
width adjustment gage. Do not use cutting oil or
coolant.
9. Tighten the gib plate locking screw to lock the cutter
head into position (Figure 1). If gib plate locking screw
is not securely tightened, the cutting inserts could
become damaged.
10. Insert the hand crank into the drive shaft. Using a con-
trolled uninterrupted motion, start rotating the hand
crank in a clockwise direction to bevel the work piece
(Figure 15).
It is important to provide proper rotational speed to
prolong the life of the cutting inserts. Monitor the indi-
cator lights on the rear of the unit. Green indicates the
proper speed. Yellow indicates that you need to rotate
the handle faster. Red indicates to rotate the handle
slower. (See Figure 14.)
Keep rotating the crank until the beveller makes a
complete 360° rotation around the pipe or is 6" from
the end of the plate edge to be bevelled. The crank
should only turn clockwise when viewed from the
back of the beveller. Do not drive the beveller with a
drill, impact or other power tool – drive by hand only.
Do not use cutting oil or coolant.
