7.0 INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
1. Determine the maximum points of misalignment.
(see Fig. 3). The maximum points are on the top or
bottom of the joint, as illustrated by the arrows.

2. Guide the lift hook of the tool into the bolt hole at the
maximum point of misalignment. Then, adjust the
drop leg down onto the pipe by turning the adjusting
knob in the clockwise direction (see Fig. 4).

Note: The tool should be held up level within the bolt
hole during adjustment. The tool must remain parallel to
the pipe at all times.
3. Pull out the lock pin and extend the wing out to the
desired distance (see Fig. 5). Rotate the cylinder
clockwise until it locates onto the surface of the
opposite flange. At this stage, ensure that the tool is
sitting level and that the end of the cylinder is in full
contact with the surface of the higher flange.
4. Attach the hook of the strap through one of the slots
on the buckle (located above the drop leg pad).
Place the hook of the ratchet through the other slot
on the opposite side of the buckle. Feed the end
of the strap through the ratchet and tighten. (see
Fig. 6).

5. Connect the P-142 hydraulic pump to the hydraulic
hose, and the hose to the hydraulic cylinder. Operate
the pump handle until the joint comes into alignment.
(see Fig. 7).

Note: The ATM-9 hydraulic cylinder is rated at 10,000
psi [700 bar] operating pressure. The P-142 hydraulic
pump contains a built-in safety relief valve that opens
at approximately 10,500 psi [724 bar].
WARNING: If a different pump is used in
place of the P-142 for any reason, be certain
that the pump relief valve is not set higher
than 10,500 psi [724 bar]. Install a pressure gauge in
the circuit to monitor system pressure.
