5. Asennus
- Valmistele putki: Ensure the steel pipe is cut squarely and free of burrs or deformation. The pipe must be compatible with the tool's specifications (1/2 to 2 inches, steel only).
- Secure the Pipe: Lujasti clamp the pipe in a sturdy vise or pipe stand to prevent movement during threading.
- Select Die Head: Choose the appropriate 12R die head complete for the desired pipe size. The RIDGID 65255 comes with die heads for 1/2, 3/4, 1, 1-1/4, 1-1/2, and 2 inches.
- Attach Die Head: Insert the selected die head into the ratcheting handle. The die head can be attached from either side of the handle. Ensure it is securely seated.
6. Käyttöohjeet
- Aseta työkalu: Place the die head onto the end of the pipe to be threaded.
- Engage Ratchet: Adjust the knob on the ratcheting handle to set the rotation direction for threading (clockwise for right-hand threads).
- Apply Pressure and Rotate: Apply firm, steady pressure to the handle while rotating it. The dies will begin to cut threads into the pipe.
- Leikkausöljyn levittäminen: Continuously apply generous amounts of appropriate cutting oil to the dies and the pipe during the entire threading process. This is crucial for smooth cutting, heat dissipation, and extending the life of the dies.
- Continue Threading: Maintain consistent pressure and rotation until the desired thread length is achieved. The design allows for accurate threads in a single pass, eliminating the need for re-cutting.
- Käännä ja poista: Once threading is complete, reverse the direction of the ratcheting handle using the knob. Continue rotating in the reverse direction to back the die head off the newly cut threads.
- Tarkista langat: Carefully inspect the newly cut threads for completeness and quality.
7. Huolto
- Clean Dies: After each use, clean any metal shavings or debris from the die heads using a brush or compressed air. Ensure the dies are free of obstructions.
- Voitele: Periodically lubricate the moving parts of the ratcheting mechanism and the die head components with light machine oil to ensure smooth operation.
- Tarkista kuluminen: Regularly inspect the dies for signs of wear, chipping, or dullness. Worn dies will produce poor quality threads and should be replaced.
- Varastointi: Store the tool and die heads in the provided carrying case in a dry, clean environment to prevent rust and damage.
8. Vianmääritys
| Ongelma | Mahdollinen syy | Ratkaisu |
|---|---|---|
| Poor quality threads (rough, incomplete) | Dull or damaged dies, insufficient cutting oil, improper pipe preparation, incorrect pressure. | Replace dies, apply more cutting oil, ensure pipe is clean and deburred, apply consistent pressure. |
| Difficulty starting threads | Pipe not properly chamfered, dies not properly aligned, insufficient initial pressure. | Chamfer pipe end, ensure die head is correctly seated, apply firm initial pressure. |
| Tool binds or is hard to turn | Lack of lubrication, excessive pressure, dull dies, metal shavings buildup. | Apply more cutting oil, reduce pressure, replace dies, clean die head. |
| Pipe slips in clamp | Putki ei ole kunnolla kiinniamptoim. | Re-secure pipe firmly in a sturdy vise or pipe stand. |
