screws.

7.  To square pipe, place level on the fitting 

opening positioned at a right angle to the 
run of the pipe.  After rotating pipe until

Fitting Up A Flange

1.  Mount the Clamp Champ onto the pipe end 

as shown in earlier section.  Position the 
jack screws so that the ball is even with the 
surface of the pipe.

2.  The leveling and supporting device must be 

bolted onto the flange.  Place the flat por-
tion onto the face of the flange and attach 
with the nut and bolt provided in Clamp 
Champ kit.  Bolt need only be hand tight.
