TOP LINER PIPE CLAMP INSTRUCTIONS !1.) Be sure to watch this 5 min. video for basic instructions: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nU8gOKDDALQ !2.) ONLY use the wrenches supplied to work the clamp. No cheater bars or hammers. These will damage the clamp. !2.) Before placing the clamp on the pipe, make sure all the jack bolts (on top of the turnbuckles) are backed off and disengaged. !3.) Run the turnbuckles out a little bit and balance all 4 turnbuckles so they're about the same. !4.) FIRST STEP: Place the clamp on the pipe with the pipe joint approximately centered with the middle of the turnbuckles. !5.) Clamp one side of the ring by tightening the eye bolt and then secure the second ring. Make sure the ring is square on the pipe. !6.) SECOND STEP: is to set the gap close to where you want it by engaging the turnbuckles to pull or push the pipe. Work all 4 turnbuckles together. A little bit on one then move to the next turnbuckle and so forth until you have the gap close. !7.) THIRD STEP: is begin adjusting your high/low. Pick 2 turnbuckles side by side and work to get the O.D. aligned right underneath the turnbuckle. You accomplish this by engaging the jack bolts on top of the turnbuckle. The jack bolt will push the pipe in the direction it is pointing. CAUTION: When engaging one jack bolt the adjacent jack bolt on the same turnbuckle has to be totally disengaged. You cannot engage both jack bolts on the same turnbuckle or it will two block itself and not work. !8.) On the 10", Fine Tuning dogs have been supplied. Once the fit-up has been made and the O.D. is aligned, the Fine Tuning dogs can be slid into the slots around ring and used to push down any high spots. !9.) Once you are good with the alignment you gently snug all jack bolts so you will get a ridged fit. !!!!!!!!!! !

PROMOTED BY THE UA PIPEFITTER UNION !!We were invited to the UA Instructor Training Program in Ann Arbor, Michigan on August 10-16, 2013 at the Washtenaw Community College. We provided training to the UA Pipefitters on our Top Liner Pipe Clamp where it was used to fit-up some heavy-wall 6" & 8" pipe and induction preheating was used to bring the pipe up to 400 degrees with our clamp in place. Many locals from all over the US were represented and the clamp was very well received. !We also participated in their International Instructor Training Program that took place February 11-13, 2014 in San Antonio, Texas. They have provided a hot link on their website to our website for their locals to obtain additional information.
