7.Apply pressure to the handle slowly and continu- ously until the tubing is cut. Do not force the cutter wheel into the workpiece. This will damage and short- en the life of the cutter wheel.
8.Release pressure from the handle but still have the cutter wheel support rollers maintain contact with the tubing (Figure 5). The rollers will hold the tubing so it will not fall to the ground.
9.Turn the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position.
10.Remove tubing from the machine. Raise the cutter handle to its maximum height.
Cleaning/Deburring O.D. of Tube
1.Turn the ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
2.Place the end of the tube on the rest plate. Lengths of tubing longer than four feet should be supported by pipe stands.
WARNING Pipe supports are needed to maintain control of the workpiece.
3.Press tube gently against the brush and rotate slow- ly until surface is bright (Figure 6).
WARNING Keep hands away from rotating parts.
4.Remove external burrs by rotating tube against debur- ring cutter (Figure 7). This action also bevels the end of tube for easier insertion into the fitting.
