10.0 FUNCTION OF ATM-3
Fig. 9
Extend
Wing
Swivel
The ATM-3 should be secured to the lower of the two
flanges by fully inserting the lift hook into the bolt hole
which is parallel with the bolt hole on the opposite
flange, this is where the misalignment is at its worst
point. The drop leg should be released onto the pipe
while the tool is held up level in the bolt hole.
Pull out on wing release clip to allow the wing to be
extended to the desired distance.
NOTE: The lift hook is reversible for varying flange
sizes.
The swivel at the base of the screw bolt should
always rest fully on the circumference of the
opposite flange.
By tightening the screw bolt down on the flange
circumference ATM-3 will react by lifting the lower
flange into line and the bolts can be inserted.
11.0 MISALIGNMENT DETERMINATION
PROCEDURE
• The ATM-3 MUST NOT be attached to a flanged
joint prior to the misalignment determination
procedure being carried out.
• Every second bolt should be loosened and
removed around the flange. Continue with this
procedure. Misalignment may not occur until only
a few bolts remain. At this point the direction of
any misalignment should become obvious.
