Clamp Pipe
Clamp on pipe when joint is centered between
wrenches (1 and 2). Always clamp on the larger
diameter areas on either side of the tool joint face.
Turning shaft can kill you or crush arm or leg. Stay away.
NOTICE: Clamping anywhere else on the pipe will weaken the pipe. Pipe can later break,
even when operating under normal loads.
Incorrect procedures could result in death, injury, or property damage.
Learn to use equipment correctly.
NOTICE: Wrenches can open after engine shutdown. Ensure that any downhole tool or pipe in tool joint
vises is attached to spindle or removed before transport.
