Reaming The Workpieces (D); Removing And Installing The Dies (E); Automatic Thread-Tapping Head; Standard Thread-Tapping Head - Rothenberger SUPERTRONIC 2 SE Instructions D'utilisation

If the handle of the pipe cutter is turned with force, the cutting surface of the pipe
takes an oval shape, which makes correct thread-tapping impossible. Therefore,
move the handle of the pipe cutter half a turn per whole pipe rotation!
Î Move the pipe cutter up so that it is not in the way. Turn the feeder hand wheel in order to
bring the pipe cutter into the position necessary for cutting the workpiece.
Î Move the pipe cutter down onto the workpiece and then press the ON switch or press the
pedal.
Î Turn the handle of the pipe cutter powerfully clockwise and start to cut the workpiece.
Î Swivel the pipe cutter down and back again.
Do not collect the cut pipes in the trough! Take them out of the trough immediately
after the cutting process ends!
5.3 Reaming the workpieces
The cutting tip of the internal deburrer is very sharp! Do not touch it with bare
hands! Risk of cutting and injury!
Î Pull the internal deburrer towards you.
Î Turn the feeder hand wheel clockwise and gently press the cutting edge of the reamer
against the inside of the pipe in order to ream.
Î Turn the rotary handle further and gently press the cutting edge of the reamer against the
inside of the pipe in order to ream.
5.4 Removing and installing the dies
