Heating the Pipe

B) Close carriage to bring pipe ends in contact with the
heater.
C) Move selector valve to middle (heating mode) position.

Inserting Heater
The heater is not explosion proof. Operation
of heater in an explosive atmosphere without
necessary safety precautions will result in serious
injury or death.
If operating in an explosive atmosphere, heater should be brought
up to temperature in a safe environment, then unplugged before
entering the explosive atmosphere for fusion.
Use a clean non-synthetic cloth to clean the butt fusion heater
adapter surfaces.
Verify heater temperature by noting the reading on the dial
thermometer.
Insert heater between the pipe ends.
