1 Notes 

on 

safety 

The Pipe End Preparation Machine (in the following referred to as REB) is a 
state-of-the-art machine. Using it for purposes other than those described in 
this manual may cause injury to the user or to others. The machine or other 
equipment may also be damaged. 

Therefore: 

  Always ensure that the machine is in good working condition, and always 

comply with these notes on safety. 

  Keep the complete documentation close by the machine. 

  All regulations generally valid for the prevention of accidents must be 

observed. 

 

1.1 Proper 

use 

  Use the REB only for preparing (beveling, squaring) of pipe ends made 

from metallic materials (see chapter 3.2, p. 11). 

  The user will be the only person liable for damages caused by improper 

use. 

 

1.2 Safety 

regulations 

  Only use the dimensions and materials specified in this manual. Always 

consult Orbitalum Tools after-sales service personnel before using other 
materials. 

  Only use original Orbitalum Tools spare parts and auxiliaries. 

  Inspect the REB every day for visible signs of damage or defects.  

Any damage or defect must be repaired immediately. 

  Work on the electrical equipment may only be performed by a qualified 

electrician. 

  Only operate the REB (E) if both electrical protection devices, disable re-

start and overload protection, are in proper working order. 

  Disconnect the REB (E) from power supply before changing the tools or 

carrying out maintenance and repair work and allow the machine to come 
to a stop. 

  Operate the REB (D) only by the ON/OFF switch on the twist grip for speed 

regulation.
