Setting the thread length
The thread length was set by the manufacturer but can be changed if required.
Hold set pin with a slot screwdriver and loosen hex nut.
Turning set pin toward „E", makes shorter threads and turning
toward „F" makes longer threads. The thread length will be
changed about 2mm by half turn.
Hold set pin with a slot screwdriver not to turn it and tighten hex
nut.

Setting the thread depth
The thread depth of the dies is pre-adjusted as standard at delivery of the threading machine.
At starting with operation of the threading machine the user has to check and control the
thread depth per each thread by using suitable measuring instruments or similar. The correct
adjustment has to be done by the user.
Set location plate to location block which is not for the size to
be adjusted.
Loosen the screw and move location block to adjust the
thread depth.
Sliding toward „G" makes deeper threads and sliding toward
„H" makes shallower threads The thread depth will change
1,5 to 2 mm threads by one scale.
With the aid of a measuring instrument, check the cut pipe for a tapered thread etc. and
correct the setting if necessary
