Cleaning/Deburring O.D. Of Tube - RIDGID 122 Manual De Instrucciones

3. Place the tubing on the rollers so that the cutting
mark is located under the cutter wheel, on the zero
mark of the scale. If the tubing extends beyond the
machine, position supports under the tube. Supports
should be adjusted so the tube sits squarely on the
rollers. This will help insure proper tracking of the cut.
4. Lower the handle until the cutter wheel support rollers
contact the tubing (Figure 9) . Align the cutter wheel
with the mark on the tubing.

tinuously until the tubing is cut. Aggressive cutting can
damage the cutter wheel and cause excessive burrs.
7. Reduce force on the handle maintaining the support
rollers in contact with the tubing. The rollers help
hold the tubing in place.
8. Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF (O) position.
9. When tubing stops rotating, remove from the machine.
Raise the cutter handle.
