STEP 7: Test communication. To test the communication of the machine first, press the restart button.
Then, use the Manual Jog switch located on the control pendant to rotate the chuck in both
directions and to move the Drive Carriage up and down the rail. After each jog, the machine
should return to the start point.
STEP 8: Placing the Pipe on the rollers. Position the two Roller Block Assemblies on the Standard
Arm Assembly so that one is located at either end of the pipe. Ensure that the Roller Block
Assemblies are not positioned directly under the cut, or will in anyway interfere with the cut.
Place the pipe onto the rollers and raise or lower the Adjustable Table so that the pipe can be
chucked. Ensure that the table is at the proper height so that the pipe will be seated level on
the Roller Block Assemblies. Position the torch so that it is centered in line with the chuck axis.
NOTE: The machine can be used with oxy-fuel or plasma torches. If the machine is set-up for oxy-
fuel cutting, use a three-hose cutting torch and run the hoses to the quick action manifold.
Plug the solenoid into the contact output located on the control panel. The solenoid controls
the cutting oxygen. If the machine is set-up for plasma cutting, it will be equipped with a rotary
ground, contact relay, and holding clamp for a plasma torch. Plug the contact relay into the
contact output located on the control panel. Wire the trigger leads for the plasma machine to
the supplied connector and plug into the contact relay box. The suggested method of plasma
cutting is air plasma. Run the gas hose or plasma cable through the Cable Support to the
cutting torch. Plug the programming pendant cable into the pendant control connection located
on the control panel. Place the programming pendant in the pendant holster located to the right
of the control panel.
STEP 9: Program the machine for the desired cut. (Refer to the programming and making a cut sections
in this manual).
