unplug the machine.
Set-Up and Operation
Set up and operate the power drive according to
these procedures to reduce the risk of injury from
electric shock, entanglement, striking, crushing and
other causes, and to help prevent power drive dam-
age.
Use an appropriate support device per these instruc-
tions. Sup port devices im prove control and reduce
the risk of striking, crushing, and/or other injuries.
When using a support device other than the supplied
support arm, the support device must react against
the gear housing or fan housing. Support devices
contacting the motor housing or handle may damage
these parts or increase the risk of injury.
Always firmly hold the power drive when threading
or backing die head off the pipe to resist use forces,
regardless of support device use. This will reduce
the risk of striking, crushing and other injuries.
Do not wear gloves or loose clothing. Keep sleeves
and jackets buttoned. Loose clothing can become
entangled in rotating parts and cause crushing and
striking injuries.
Properly support pipe. This will reduce the risk of
falling pipe, tipping and serious injury.
Do not use a power drive without a properly oper-
ating ON/OFF switch and F/R slide switch.
One person must control both the work process
and the ON/OFF switch. Do not operate with more
than one person. In case of entanglement, the oper-
ator must be in control of the ON/OFF switch.
1. Check work area for:
• Adequate lighting.
• Flammable liquids, vapors or dust that may ignite.
If present, do not work in area until sources have
been identified and corrected. The power drives are
not explosion proof and can cause sparks.

600-I/690-I Power Drives
• Clear, level, stable, dry location for all equipment
and operator.
• Good ventilation. Do not use extensively in small,
enclosed areas.
• Properly wired electrical outlet of the correct voltage.
If in doubt, have outlet inspected by a licensed elec-
trician.
• Clear path to electrical outlet that does not contain
any potential sources of damage for the power cord.
2. Inspect the pipe to be threaded and associated
fittings and confirm that the selected power drive is
a correct tool for the job. See Specifications. Do
not use to thread anything other than straight
stock.
3. Make sure equipment to be used has been
properly inspected.
4. Properly prepare the pipe as needed. Make sure
the pipe is squarely cut and deburred. Pipe cut
at an angle can damage the dies while threading
or cause difficulty engaging the die head.
