2.3. Electrical connection
WARNING
Caution: Mains voltage present! Before connecting the thread cutting machine,
check whether the voltage given on the rating plate corresponds to the mains
voltage. Only connect the thread cutting machine of protection class I to
a socket/extension lead with a functioning protective contact. There is a
danger of electric shock. On building sites, in a wet environment, indoors and
outdoors or under similar installation conditions, only operate the thread cutting
machine on the mains with a fault current protection switch (FI switch) which
interrupts the power supply as soon as the leakage current to earth exceeds
30 mA for 200 ms.
The thread cutting machine is switched on and off with the foot switch (21,
Tornado / 4, Magnum). The switch (18, Tornado / 3, Magnum) serves to pre-
select the direction of rotation or speed. The machine can only be switched on
when the emergency off button (22, Tornado / 5, Magnum) is unlocked and the
protection switch (23, Tornado / 6, Magnum) on the foot switch is pressed. If
the machine is connected directly to mains (without a plug device), a 16 A circuit
breaker must be installed.
2.4. Thread-cutting Materials
Only use REMS thread cutting materials. They ensure perfect cutting results,
long life of the dies and considerably relieve stress on the machine.
NOTICE
REMS Spezial thread cutting material is high alloyed and can be used for all
types of pipe and bolt threads. It can be washed out with water (tested and
certifi ed by an expert). Mineral oil-based thread cutting materials are not
approved for drinking water pipes in different countries, e.g. Germany, Austria
and Switzerland. Mineral oil-free REMS Sanitol must be used in this case.
Observe the national regulations.
REMS Sanitol thread-cutting material is mineral oil-free, synthetic, completely
water-soluble and has the lubricating property of mineral oil. It can be used for
all pipe and bolt threads. It must be used for drinking water pipes in Germany,
Austria and Switzerland and complies with regulations (DVGW Test No.
DW-0201AS2032; ÖVGW Test No. W 1.303; SVGW Test No. 7808-649).
Observe the national regulations.
NOTICE
All thread cutting materials may only be used in undiluted form!
2.5. Material Support
CAUTION CAUTION
Pipes and bars longer than 2 m must be supported additionally by at least one
height-adjustable REMS Herkules 3B, REMS Herkules XL 12" material rest.
This has steel balls for easy movement of the pipes and bars in all directions
without the material support tipping over.
2.6. REMS 4" Automatic Die Head
When using the REMS 4" automatic die head, the operating instructions included
with the REMS 4" automatic die head must be observed.
2.7. Subframe, mobile and folding (accessory)
CAUTION CAUTION
The folded subframe, mobile and folding, quickly moves up automatically without
mounted thread cutting machine after releasing. Therefore hold down the
subframe by the handle when releasing and hold with both handles when
moving up.
To move up with the thread cutting machine mounted, hold the subframe with
one hand on the handle, put one foot on the cross member and release both
locking pins by turning the lever. Then hold the subframe with both hands and
move to working height until the two locking pins snap in. Proceed in the reverse
order to fold up. Drain the thread-cutting material from the oil tray or remove
the oil tray before unfolding or folding up.
3. Operation
Use eye protection
3.1. Tools
The die head (8, Tornado / 12, Magnum) is respectively a universal die head,
i.e. for the above mentioned ranges, divided into 2 tool sets, only one die head
is required. To cut tapered pipe threads, the length stop (9, Tornado / 13,
Magnum) with the closing and opening lever (10, Tornado / 14, Magnum) must
be in the same direction. The die head then opens automatically on reaching
the respective standard thread length. The length stop (9, Tornado / 13, Magnum)
is folded away to be able to cut cylindrical long threads and bolt threads.
Changing the dies
The dies can be inserted or changed both with mounted and removed die head
(e.g. on the workbench). Release the clamping lever (11, Tornado / 15, Magnum)
to do this, do not unscrew. Push the adjusting disc (12, Tornado / 16, Magnum)
on the handle away from the clamping lever into the end position. The dies are
removed and inserted in this position. Make sure that the thread size specifi ed
on the rear of the dies corresponds to the thread size to be cut. Also make sure
that the numbers also specifi ed on the back of the dies match those on the die
holder (14, Tornado / 17, Magnum).
18
Use ear protection
Push the dies into the die head until the ball in the slit of the die holder snaps
in. When all dies are inserted, the desired thread size is set by moving the
adjusting disc. Always set bolt threads to "Bolt". Clamp the adjusting disc with
the clamping lever. Close the cutting head. Press the closing and opening lever
(10, Tornado / 14, Magnum) fi rmly down to the right to do this. The die head
opens either automatically (for tapered pipe threads) or at any time manually
by exerting slight pressure on the left of the closing and opening lever.
If the holding force of the clamping lever (11, Tornado / 15, Magnum) is not
suffi cient for the die head 2½ – 3" and 2½ – 4" due to increased cutting force
(e.g. blunt dies), i.e. the die head opens under cutting pressure, the cylinder
head screw on the side opposite the clamping lever (11, Tornado / 15, Magnum)
must be tightened additionally.
The pipe cutter (15, Tornado / 18, Magnum) is for cutting ⅛ – 2" or 2½ – 4"
pipes.
The pipe inside deburrer (16, Tornado / 19, Magnum) is used for ¼ – 2" or
2½ – 4" pipes. Secure the quill by snapping into the deburring arm; front or
rear, depending on the length of the pipe.
3.2. Chuck
A clamping sleeve (Art. No. 343001) adapted to the diameter is required for
Magnum up to 2" and Tornado for clamping diameters < 8 mm, for Magnum up
to 4" for clamping diameters < 20 mm. The desired clamping diameter must be
specifi ed when ordering the clamping sleeve.
3.2.1. Chuck Tornado (19)
The self-centring dies open and close automatically by turning the switch to
the left or right (18) and actuating the foot switch (21). When changing the front
and rear dies, please make sure that the individual dies are inserted as shown
in Fig. 4 and 5 because otherwise damage will be caused. The machine may
never be switched on before all dies and both chuck covers are fi tted.
3.2.2. Quick Action Hammer Chuck (1), Guide Chuck (2) Magnum
The quick action hammer chuck (1) with large clamping ring and moving dies
inserted into the die carriers ensures centred and safe clamping with the least
force. As soon as the material protrudes from the guide chuck, this must be
closed.
To change the dies (24), close the clamping ring (22) up to approx. 30 mm
clamping diameter. Remove screws of the dies (24). Push out the dies to the
back with a suitable tool (screwdriver). Push the new dies with inserted screw
into the die carriers from the front.
3.3. Work Procedure
Remove blockages of chips and fragments of the workpiece before starting
work.
NOTICE
Switch off the thread cutting machine when the tool set approaches the machine
housing.
3.3.1. Tornado
Swing out tools and move the tool carrier to the right end position with the
pressing lever (5). Insert the material so that it protrudes approx. 10 cm from
the chuck (19). Swing down and close the dies head (8). Switch the switch (18)
to position 1, actuate the foot switch (21). Now the material is clamped auto-
matically.
CAUTION CAUTION
Never reach into the revolving clamping or guide chuck. There is a risk of
injury.
With types 2010 and 2020 the 2nd speed can be selected for cutting off and
deburring and for cutting smaller threads. Switch the switch (18) rapidly from
position 1 to position 2 with the machine running to do this. Press the die head
against the rotating material with the pressing lever (5). After one or two thread
turns the die head continues to cut automatically. The die head opens auto-
matically on reaching the standard thread length for tapered pipe threads. For
long threads and bolt threads, open the die head manually with the machine
running by pressing the closing and opening lever (10) on the left. Release the
foot switch (21). Set switch (18) to R. Press the foot switch (21) briefl y, the
material is released.
Unlimitedly long threads can be cut by re-tightening the material. To do this,
release the foot switch (21) when the tool carrier (2) approaches the machine
housing during thread cutting. Do not open the die head. Set switch (18) to R.
Release the material, move the tool carrier and material to the right end position
with the pressing lever. Switch the machine back on in switch position 1.
To cut pipes, the pipe cutter (15) is swung in and pushed to the desired cutting
position using the pressing lever (5). The rotating pipe is cut by turning the
spindle to the right. The inside burr created by cutting is removed with the pipe
inside deburrer (16).
