Model 302 Tube Squaring Machine

92-0547 : Rev. 140610

CAUTION:

CAUTION:

POWER REQUIREMENTS

Connect the proper power supply.

Depress the motor trigger.

Control and maintain constant cutting speed.

Refer to 'Cutting Speeds and Feeds' located in this manual for cutting speeds.

Rotate the feed knob clockwise to bring the cutting head and end of the tube or pipe

closer together.

Each line on the cover represents .001” (.025 mm) of feed travel.

The actual machining operation will begin when the tool bit contacts the tube

or pipe.

If the tube or pipe end is not square to the tube or pipe axis, the tool bit will contact

only a small segment of the tube or pipe during each revolution.

To avoid tool bit damage, the feed rate should be very slow until the tool bit is con-

tacting the tube or pipe continually during at least one revolution.

Continue rotating the feed knob clockwise until the end of the tube or pipe is com-

pletely machined.

Be careful not to let the tool bit(s) cut into the saddle.
