• Before starting the next job, check that rotating
parts have stopped.Failure to do so may result in
accidents and injury.
4. Do not wear gloves when operating the machine.
• A serious accident or injury may occur if gloves are
caught in rotating parts or blades.
5. Do not leave the machine while it is still rotating.
• Others may be injured.
6. If the machine accidentally falls or suffers an impact,
check carefully for damage such as cracks, broken parts,
or deformation.
• If any abnormalities are detected, contact the
distributor or our sales division for inspection and
repair. Continuing to use the machine in such a
state may result in malfunction, accidents or injury.
7. Do not touch the dies just after threading.
• The dies will be very hot just after completing
threading. To avoid burns and other injuries, avoid
touching them until they have cooled down.
8. Die head and dies.
• Use the die head and dies that correspond to the
diameter of the pipe to be threaded.
• Mount the die head correctly on the carriage.
• Before starting threading, set the die head to
the threading position, turn the switch to ON,
and ensure that the threading oil flows correctly
from the die head and onto the dies. Also,
make sure there is sufficient oil in the tank to
cover the strainer completely. This will not only
prevent incorrect threading of the pipe, but also
malfunctions of the machine, accidents and injury.
9. Make sure you start threading from the correct
position.
• Always start cutting threads with the carriage to
the right of the red line on the front support bar
or else the die head may hit the chuck, causing
damage to the machine, accidents or injury.
10. Use a pipe support when threading long pipes.
• When threading long pipes, use the special pipe
support to prevent vibration from warping while
the pipe is rotating. The support will also prevent
the machine from becoming unstable under the
weight of the material.
• Failure to use the pipe support may not only result in
imperfect threads and malfunctions of the machine,
but may even lead to accidents and injury.
11. Ensure that you attach accessories according to the
instruction manual.
• If accessories and attachments are not fitted correctly,
such parts may detach during operation or the unit
may fall over resulting in accidents and injury.
12. Use hearing protection when operating the
machine.
