in the "Special Operation" section of this manual.
Locate pump motor in a safe environment. Plug the electrical cord
into a proper power source.
Turn on hydraulic pump motor and note pressure at the relief
valve.
Set the system pressure to 900 psi for most pipe sizes and SDR's.
When facing heavy wall pipe, it may necessary to increase the
pressure to 1200 psi. Reduce the pressure to 900 psi when facing
is completed. Prolonged operation at increased pressure can over-
heat the oil
