918 Roll Groover

5. Advance the groove roll until it touches and lightly
grips the pipe (Do not drive the groove roll into the
pipe).
6. Confirm the pipe positioning. If the pipe is not prop-
erly positioned, the groove may not track properly.
• The pipe end should be flush against the driveshaft
flange.
• The centerline of the pipe and the centerline of the
drive shaft should be parallel. This can be checked
with a level on top of the hydraulic cylinder and on
the pipe. See Figure 14.
• The roll groover/machine should be sitting firmly on
the ground. If the machine is lifting off the ground at
all, the pipe stand(s) are set improperly and should
be adjusted.
7. Preferred Operation – Switch in REV Setting:
Slightly offset the pipe and pipe stands approxi-
mately 1/2 degree (about 1" over at 10 feet from the
roll groover) towards the operator. Proper alignment
of the pipe and roll groover helps to ensure proper
tracking of the pipe while grooving (see Figure 15).
This is proper offset for grooving with the machine in
the REV switch setting, and works with the stabilizer.
Alternate Operation – Switch in FOR Setting: If
using the machine in the FOR switch setting (such
as with a 535 Auto Chuck Machine not converted to
grip in both directions), then offset the pipe and pipe
stands approximately 1/2 degree (about 1" over at
10 feet from the roll groover) away from the operator
(see Figure 16). The pipe stabilizer cannot be used
with the FOR switch setting – it may cause pipe to
spiral out of the roll set.

8. Restrict access or set up guards or barriers to create
a minimum 3' (1m) clearance around the equipment
and pipe. This helps prevent non-operators from
contacting the equipment or pipe and reduces the
risk of tipping or entanglement.
9. With dry hands, plug the power drive/threading ma-
chine into a properly grounded outlet.
Setting/Adjusting Groove Diameter
Due to differing pipe characteristics, a test
groove should always be performed before the first
groove of the day or when changing pipe size, sched-
ule, material, or lot to reduce the risk of out of tolerance
grooves. Groove diameter must be measured to confirm
proper size.
1. Confirm that equipment is properly set up and pipe is
