• Secure machine to bench or stand. Support long heavy pipe with pipe supports. This practice
will prevent tipping.
• Do not wear gloves or loose clothing when operating machine. Keep sleeves and jackets
buttoned. Do not reach across the machine or pipe. Clothing
can be caught by the pipe or machine resulting in
entanglement and serious injury.
• Operate machine from side with REV/OFF/FOR switch. Eliminates need to reach over the
machine.
• Do not use this machine if the foot switch is broken or missing. Foot switch is a safety device to
prevent serious injury.
• Keep hands away from rotating pipe and fittings. Stop the machine before wiping pipe threads
or screwing on fittings. Allow the machine to come to a complete stop before touching the pipe or
machine chucks. This practice will prevent entanglement
and serious injury.
• Do not use this machine to make or break fittings. This practice is not an intended use of the
machine and can result in serious injury.
• Tighten chuck handwheel and engage rear centering device on the pipe before turning on the
machine. Prevents oscillation of the pipe.
• Keep covers in place. Do not operate the machine with covers removed. Exposure to moving
parts may result in entanglement and serious injury.
Description
This machine is an electric motor-driven machine which centers and chucks pipe, conduit and
rod (bolt stock) and rotates it while threading, cutting and reaming operations are performed.
Forward (clockwise) or Reverse (counterclockwise) rotation can be selected with the FOR/OFF/
REV switch and a foot switch provides ON/OFF control of the motor. The threading, cutting and
reaming operations can be performed by conventional hand tools or tools designed for mounting on
the Power Drive. A manual oiling system is available to flood the workpiece with thread cutting oil
during the threading operation. Geared Threaders can also be used with the Power Drive to thread
larger diameter pipe. This machine can also be used as a power source for roll grooving equipment.
Designed to attach to the support arms of the Power Drive, the roll grooving equipment forms
standard roll grooves on a variety of pipe sizes and materials.
