CAUTION:
Mounting the Model 103 REP on a water wall
Depress the Air Motor Hand Lever.
Lower the Model 103 REP
TM
into the pipe or tube.
The actual machining operation will begin when the Tool Inserts contact the pipe.
If the pipe end is not square to the pipe axis, the Tool Inserts will contact only a small
segment of the pipe during each revolution.
To avoid Tool Insert damage, the feed rate should be very slow until the Tool Inserts are
contacting the pipe continually during at least one full revolution.
Continue feeding the Model 103 REP
TM
into the pipe or tube until the end is completely
machined.
Stop feeding and allow the Cutting Head to rotate to improve the finish of the prep
surface.
Stop the tool rotation.
