5.1.1 Replacing the Reduction Inserts
 Unscrew the mounted reduction inserts by means of the provided Allan key.
 Screw the reduction inserts with the corresponding diameter into the clamping devices.
 If necessary (e.g. for T-pieces) the outer fixed clamping device can be dismantled by unscrewing
the three hexagon socket screws.

5.1.2 Using Small and Large Reduction Inserts
Small Reduction Inserts:
 Pipe fittings often have only a short straight surface area on which they can be clamped.
 Fittings mostly need to be clamped in the inner clamping devices with the small reduction
inserts.
 When fittings are to be welded (bends, T-pieces etc.), the inner small reduction insert can also be
used flush to the inside or to the outside.

Large Reduction Inserts
 They are mainly used for a good tightening and are generally mounted on the inner
clamping devices.
 Super large reduction inserts have a specially high guidance quality and are mainly
used during the welding of fittings with long legs which can only be clamped with a single
clamping tool.
