– GENERAL INFORMATION-
The contour Cutting Attachment with Template, in combination with the Short Saddle Machine, enables the welder, regardless of experience,
to produce perfect miter and saddle cuts time after time with little or no grinding. The Contour Cutting Attachment mounts to the front of the
Ring Gear of the Saddle Machine in the same positioning as the Saddle Machine Torch Arm.
The torch being used on the Contour Cutting Attachment is held in a fixed position so the bevel angle will not be the same around the pipe.
If the torch is set at a 30° torch bevel angle on the top of the pipe, at the 3:00 o’clock position the torch will cut a 0° bevel angle on the pipe,
at 6:00 o’clock position the torch will cut a bevel angle of 30°; at the 9:00 o’clock position the torch will cut a 0° bevel angle and the torch
bevel angle will again be 30° as it reaches the top of the pipe. The change in bevel angle is due to the inability of the torch to articulate as it
goes around the pipe.
When the Contour Cutting Attachment is used with the Motorized Short Saddle Machine you gain the optimum in performance and minimize
grinding time.
Special Notes:
A Contour Cutting Attachment is available for use with a 1 3/8” / 35mm Oxy/Fuel or Plasma torch
having a 32 pitch or metric Rack.
The Contour Cutting Attachment is not designed to be used with a Mathey Dearman Short Saddle
Machine manufactured prior to 1987.
When cutting the smaller diameter that the machine will cut it may be necessary to the torch
bracket (03-0116-082 to the bottom side of the torch carriage assembly.
The Contour Cutting Attachment is not designed for use with a 1 3/4" / 44.5mm or 2 ½” / 63.5mm
Plasma machine Torch.
