Pipe Cutter is required. The following procedures
should be followed:
1. Connecting the hydraulic foot pump to the cutter.
a. Insert the male end of the quick-disconnect cou-
pling into the female end located on the hydraulic
cylinder (Figure 3).
b. The foot pump relief valve must be depressed to
release any line pressure and allow insertion of
the quick connector.
Failure to secure the power drive with the
reaction arm will result in the rotation of the power drive.
2. Connecting the 700 Power Drive to the cutter.
a. Push 774 Square Drive Adapter, spline end first,
squarely into power drive face gear until spring
loaded adapter pawls catch securely (Figure 4).
