If using the fully Adjustable Clamping Pads, clamp the Clamshell to the tube as
follows:
Rough center and square the Clamshell by tightening the Clamping Pads
independently.
Check the center and squareness by eye.
The Adjustable Pads tend to square the Clamshell to the tube.
If additional precision in squaring is required, consult TRI TOOL Inc. about alternate
methods of squaring.
Fine center the Clamshell as you would a 4-jaw chuck.
Take measurements from tube OD to the Housing ID or use a dial indicator to sweep
around the tube’s outside diameter.
Adjust the four Clamping Pads so that the measurements at opposing Clamping
Pads are the same.
