    • Coat all components with a light film of oil prior to use. Use a clean, non-detergent oil, preferably SAE 10 (90SSU) or lighter. • If the Model 300STS is operated in the vertical position (cutting head up), turn it upside down and remove the chips and other debris after each cut.
  • Page 16 TRI TOOL INC. • Disassembly of the Model 300STS will void the warranty, except when performed by a Tri Tool Inc. designated repair technician. Model 300STS-2 Gearbox Figure 6: Models 300STS-1 and 300STS-2 NOTE: Use of a flush mount grease gun tip is required.

  • Page 17: Operation

    CAUTION: The use of dull or improperly designed Tool Bits or Tool Bits not manufactured by Tri Tool Inc. may result in poor performance and may constitute abuse of this machine and therefore void the Tri Tool Inc. factory warranty.
  • Page 18 TRI TOOL INC. • The tool bit may be reversed. Use the reversed position for tubing with an ID greater than 1.000” (25.4mm). With the extreme shear cutting action, the burr on the ID will be virtually eliminated. Use the Hex wrench to tighten the set screws.
  • Page 19 Model 300STS Tube Squaring Machine INSTALL A SADDLE IN THE MODEL 300STS Select a saddle for the desired outside diameter of the tubing to be squared. Refer to the section on Saddle Sets. Back the Saddle Clamping Knob out so that it does not protrude into the mounting bore for the saddles.
  • Page 20 INSERT THE TUBE Retract the feed to the start position. Insert the tube to be machined in the front of the Model 300STS. Position the tube or pipe approximately 1/16” (1.6mm) from the tool bit. CAUTION: Do not let the tool bit touch the tube or pipe. This will damage the tool bit or the Tube Squaring Machine when power is applied.
  • Page 21 Model 300STS Tube Squaring Machine 7. Observe the chip as the Machine is cutting. The ideal chip will come off in a loose pig tail spiral. A chip that is coming off in a tight straight spiral indicates that the feed is too heavy.
