300 Compact Pipe and Bolt Threading Machine

Do not use this machine to “make-on” or “break off” fittings. This practice is not an intended use of this Threading Machine.

Installing Pipe In Threading Machine

1.Check to insure the cutter, reamer and die head are swung to UP position.

2.Mark the pipe at the desired length if it is being cut to length.

3.Insert the pipe into the Threading Machine so that the end to be worked or the cutting mark is located about 12 inches to the front of the speed chuck jaws.

4.Insert workpieces less than 2 feet long from the front of the machine. Insert longer pipes through either end so that the longer section extends out beyond the rear of the Threading Machine.

WARNING To avoid equipment tip-overs, position the pipe supports under the workpiece.

5.Tighten the rear centering device around the pipe by using a counterclockwise rotation of the handwheel at the rear of the Threading Machine. This pre- vents movement of the pipe that can result in poor thread quality.

6.Secure the pipe by using repeated and forceful counterclockwise spins of the speed chuck hand- wheel at the front of the Threading Machine. This action “hammers” the jaws tightly around the pipe.

Cutting Pipe With No. 360 Cutter

1.Swing reamer and die head to UP position.

2.Move pipe cutter DOWN onto pipe and move carriage with handwheel to line up cutter wheel with mark on pipe.

3.Tighten cutter feed screw handle on pipe keeping wheel aligned with the pipe.

4.Assume the correct operating posture (Figure 7).

WARNING This will allow you to maintain proper balance and to safely keep control of the machine and tools.

•Be sure you can quickly remove your foot from the foot switch.

•Stand facing the directional switch.

•Be sure you have convenient access to directional switch, tools and chucks.

•Do not reach across the machine or workpiece.

5.Flip the directional switch to FOR (Forward).

6.Grasp the pipe cutter’s feedscrew handle with both hands (Figure 7).

7.Depress and hold down the foot switch with the left foot.

8.Tighten the feedscrew handle slowly and continu- ously until the pipe is cut. Do not force the cutter into the workpiece.

9.Release the foot switch and remove your foot from the housing.

10.Swing pipe cutter back to the UP position.

Reaming Pipe With No. 344 Reamer

1.Move reamer arm into DOWN position.

2.Check the directional switch to insure it is in the FOR (Forward) position. Depress and hold the foot switch down with left foot.

3.Position reamer into pipe and complete reaming by exerting pressure on handwheel (Figure 8).
