3. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Model 600SB Low-Profile Clamshells are a split-frame pipe lathe designed for
severing and beveling in-line pipe with minimal radial and axial clearance.
Use the Low Profile or Extended Tool Blocks to configure the Model 600SB to
perform the following operations:
• Sever in-line pipe.
• Sever and bevel in-line pipe.
• Sever and double bevel in-line pipe.
Design and Operation Features

The easily adjustable precision bearing surfaces pre-load and stabilize the
rotating head to provide long life, low maintenance, stability, and precision.
The Clamshell splits into two halves for mounting on closed loop systems.
All parts are secured to the two halves, thus avoiding the loss of parts and at the
same time providing maximum ease of handling.
The Clamshell may be equipped with self-centering Clamping Pads for quick, easy
mounting or may be equipped with Adjustable Clamping Pads for out-of-round pipe
conditions.
Dual Tool Blocks with Auto-feed Sprockets and Adjustable Slides provide
maximum maintainability, life, and operator safety, with a minimum of operator
training.
The Auto-feed Sprockets provide .003” (.08mm) of radial feed per revolution of the
Headstock for a controlled depth of cut.
The drive gears and bearing surfaces are covered for operator safety and are
sealed to provide protection from dust and chips.
The controls are located away from the rotating Headstock for the operator’s
safety.
A modular design concept provides quick, easy maintenance and maximum
versatility in the drive and tooling options.
A detachable right angle Air Motor provides maximum handling ease and low axial
clearance.

Recommended Maintenance
Daily
• Wipe the unit down and spray with rust preventative in severe humidity
conditions.
• Inspect the unit for loose screws, missing screws, damage, and such.
After 20 hours of operation
• Check adjustment of the Main Bearing pre-load.
• Check that the Drive torque at the Drive Socket is 5 to 10 ft-lbs.
(7 to 14 N-m).
• Lubricate the male and female Tool Block Slides and the Feed Screw.
After 40 hours of operation
• Thoroughly clean and lubricate Main Gear, Drive Gear, male and female Tool
Slides, Feed Screws, and Tripper Block Assy.
Non-scheduled maintenance
• Readjust the Main Bearing pre-load if the Clamshell generates excessive heat
or if the Main Bearing becomes loose.
• Thoroughly clean and check the Tool Blocks in the event of feed problems.
Storage
• If the Clamshell is to be stored or out of service for 30 days or more, thoroughly
clean lubricate and spray it with a rust preventative before storing it.
• Remove the airline Quick disconnect and spray it with a lightweight oil.
• Squirt oil into the male Quick Disconnect.
• Reconnect the airline and turn on the Air Motor for 1 or 2 seconds to disperse
oil throughout the vanes and rotor.
Adjustment of the Main Bearing Pre-Load

Refer to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4, Bearing Adjustment Screw locations
1. Loosen all Bearing Adjustment Lock Screws (all letters).
2. Loosen all Bearing Adjustment Set Screws about 1/2 turn (all numbers).
3. Turn in Bearing Adjustment Set Screws (all circled) so that they are snugged
tightly. This insures that the Bearing is fully pushed forward.
4. Lightly turn in the remaining Bearing Adjustment Set Screws in the order shown
until they all touch the Bearing.
12 92-1197 Rev. 200519

5. Relax Bearing Adjustment Set Screws (all circled) and resnug them so that all
of the Bearing Adjustment Set Screws are evenly loaded against the Bearing.
6. Connect the air supply and apply power to the Clamshell so that it is running
at full speed.
7. Adjust the Bearing Adjustment Set Screws (all numbers) so that the
Clamshell rotation slows slightly. (Refer to Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 for recommended
sequence).
8. Listen for a change in the sound of the Air Motor.
9. Adjust the Set Screws in small increments so that the bearing is loaded
evenly.
10. Check that the Set Screws are snugged to ensure that the bearing is
uniformly loaded.
11. The drive torque as measured at the drive socket should be 5 to 10 ft-lbs. (7
to 14 N-m).
12. The safe torque range on the Bearing Adjustment Set Screws is 1 to 3 in-lbs.
(.1 to .3 N-m).Over-tightening the Bearing Adjustment Set Screws will result in
accelerated bearing wear and lower available power.
13. Lock the Bearing pre-load by tightening the Bearing Adjustment Lock Screws.
Refer to the numbers in Fig. 3 and Figr. 4.The safe torque should be 8 to 10
ft-lbs. (11 to 14 N-m).Too much torque may crack the Bearing, while too little
torque may allow the Bearing pre-load to relax.

Drive Gear and Main Gear Lubrication

1. Remove the Drive Housing.
2. Inspect both Drive and Main Gears for chips or burrs and clean as required.
3. Coat the teeth of the Drive Gear and the Main Gear with grease approved by
Tri Tool Inc. (See Lubricant Recommendations).
Tool Block Maintenance
1. Clean the Slide Rails, the Feed Nut, the Sprocket Assy and the Feed Screw.
2. Inspect these parts for damage and replace as required.
3. Lubricate and reassemble the Tool Block. Use lubricant on the Feed Screw
sparingly or wipe to a film condition.
4. Excess lubricant will collect grit and chips and tend to cause thread jamming
and damage.
5. Adjust the Adjustable Slide Rail to provide a firm, but not excessive rotational
pressure on the Sprocket.
6. The Slide Rails must be over tightened to squeeze the oil into a thin film
against the male and female surfaces of the Slide Rails.
7. Reset for proper operation. If the Mounting Bracket was overstressed, the
Slide Rails may appear to loosen when mounted if they were adjusted off of
the Clamshell.
8. Make the adjustment when mounted for the most satisfactory results.

split-lines of the Housing.
4. Unbolt the halves of the Clamshell. Two Locking Screws are located on the
Housing and two more on the Headstock.
20 92-1197 Rev. 200519

5. These Locking Screws are captured in their holes so that they will not come
totally free of the Clamshell.
6. Separate the Clamshell halves by pulling straight apart.
7. Secure the Clamshell to the pipe.
8. Clean the mating surfaces and the ID of the Clamshell halves.
9. Wipe clean the mounting surface of the pipe.
10. Check that the Tool Blocks will clear the pipe when the Clamshell is mounted.
11. Close the halves of the Clamshell around the pipe, keep the mating surfaces
clean.
12. Check that the Alignment Pins have seated the two halves properly.
13. Bolt the two halves of the Clamshell together using the Locking Screws in the
Housing and in the Headstock. The tightening torque must be 35 to 40 ft-lbs.
(47 to 54 N-m).
14. If you use Fixed Clamping Pads, clamp the Clamshell to the pipe as follows: if
not, go to step 22 “If using the fully Adjustable Clamping Pads...”.
15. Tighten the Adjustable Pads lightly so that all of the Clamping Pads contact
the pipe.
16. Gently rock the Clamshell as you tighten the Adjustable Clamping Pads to
seat the Clamshell square on the pipe.
17. Check that all Clamping Pads fully contact the pipe. If not, repeat the last
three steps.
18. Tighten the Clamping Pads. Tightening torque should be 40 to 50 ft-lbs. (54
to 68 N-m).
19. Go to “General Machining Sequence”.
20. If using the fully Adjustable Clamping Pads, clamp the Clamshell to the pipe
as follows:
21. Rough center and square the Clamshell by tightening the Clamping Pad
independently.
22. Visually check the center and squareness. The Adjustable Pads tend
to square the Clamshell to the pipe. If additional precision in squaring is
required, consult Tri Tool Inc. about alternate methods of squaring.
23. Fine center the Clamshell as you would a 4-jaw check.

24. Take measurements from the pipe OD to the Housing ID or use a dial indicator
to sweep around the pipe’s outside diameter.
25. Adjust the Clamping Pads so that the measurements at opposing Clamping
Pads are the same.
General Machining Sequence

1. To set Tool Bits, refer to the section on Tool Bit Setup.
2. Install the Air Motor into the drive socket and bolt it to the Clamshell. Check that
the air supply filter/regulator/lubricator is installed and set properly.
WARNING: The Motor Mount reacts to the torque of the Air Motor only when the Motor
Hold-down Bolt is in place.
WARNING
3. Check that the air supply filter/regulator/lubricator is installed and set properly
4. Select one of the five orientations to provide the most clearance for the Air Motor.
5. Check for proper alignment of the Feed Sprockets.

Refer to the section on Cutting Speeds.
9. Engage the feed by pushing the Tripper Shaft in. Monitor the cutting operation.
10. Apply cutting fluid as necessary.
11. If Chips build up so much that they tangle in the Clamshell, disengage the feed
for 2-3 revolutions to clear the chip. Then stop the Clamshell and remove the
chips.
12. When the machine operation is finished, turn off the Air Motor by closing the
Throttle Control Valve.
WARNING: In-line pipe stores energy. When the pipe is severed, the pipe may move and
cause injury to personnel and damage to property.
WARNING
13. To prevent accidents due to the spring in the pipe system, be sure to secure
the pipe on both sides of the sever line in order to prevent differential
movement of the pipe ends.
14. Retract the Tool Holders so that the Tool Bit(s) clear the pipe OD. The Tool
Holders are retracted by rotating the Feed Sprocket clockwise using the
special Spanner Wrench supplied with the Clamshell.
15. Run the Air Motor until the split-lines of the Headstock and the Housing match.
16. Loosen the Clamping Pads.
