E. Generously coat tap with REED Tapping Compound #98425 or #99140.
NOTE: Always use clean drill taps coated with tapping compound. Fully clean drill tap threads with wire brush between taps and reapply tapping compound.

5. Assemble top and bottom halves A. Verify:
a. Swing valve open. b. Upper ball valve shut. c. Needle valve (silver star knob) shut, clockwise. B. Screw Boring Bar top cap hand tight onto the top chamber (1 3/4 Turns). C. Push down Boring Bar slowly until bit touches the pipe.

D. Adjust the Star Feed as necessary. Place the Yoke over the bearing.
E. Put ratchet wrench on top of Boring Bar.

B. Drill through the pipe by pulling the

ratchet wrench clockwise and

turning the star feed clockwise in a

smooth and consistent manner. An

easily turning Boring Bar and star

feed indicates one has completed

drilling through the pipe wall.

NOTE: Do not overfeed the drill taps, let the bits do the cutting before feeding. Turn

before feeding.

C. If appropriate, open the ball valve to

allow flushing of chips while drilling.

D. Feed drill tap down until feeling

resistance. One will feel resistance

pipe wall.

E. Begin tapping by rotating the ratchet

tapping.

G. Continue tapping until start of the

a satisfactory tap. Resharpened drill taps may require two additional turns. Other manufacturer’s drill taps may vary. Consult drill tap manufacturer’s instructions. Consider conducting dry taps to determine a depth that works best for you. NOTES: · Pay attention to the Depth Stop Line on the boring bar to keep from cutting too deep. · Weight of a power drive could possibly affect downward pressure when tapping the pipe, especially on PVC. 7. Drill Tap Removal A. Reverse the ratchet detent lever
(or Power Drive Switch) and carefully back the drill tap out of the tapped hole using a counterclockwise rotation. B. Once the drill tap is free of the pipe, retract the Boring Bar to its uppermost position. CAUTION: If pipe is pressurized, apply resisting force to allow boring bar to slowly retract. C. Close the swing valve by pushing down on the handle and turning it 90 degrees counter-clockwise. D. Open the pressure relief valve on the top chamber to release pressure, then close it again.
E. Unscrew the top cap assembly from the valve chamber.
F. Loosen the tool retaining screw and strike the end of the knockout pin to release the drill tap.
8. Attaching Corporation Stop to Boring Bar
A. Verify the selected corp stop matches the size intended and the drill tap size.
B. Verify the corporation stop is in closed/off position.
C. Screw the corp stop and corp adapter together.

H. Screw assembly into the valve chamber.
9. Inserting the Corp Stop A. Attach the ratchet wrench onto the
Boring Bar and set it for clockwise rotation. B. Turn the star knob counterclockwise 1 turn to balance the pressure.
C. Push down on the swing valve handle and turn 90 degrees clockwise.

10. Releasing the Corporation Adapter

A. Reverse the ratchet to turn counter clockwise.

B. Remove play from the ratchet wrench with one hand, and strike the wrench handle with the other hand to disen gage the corporation adapter from the adapter shank.

C. Rotate the ratchet wrench counterclockwise until the adapter shank is completely free.

D. Verify quality of corp stop seal by

opening the chip flush valve and

attempting to release pressure in the

chamber. If pressure does not drop

11. Machine Removal A. Unscrew top chamber assembly. B. Loosen the chain hook nuts and
unhook the chain. Remove hooks from the machine. C. Carefully remove the machine, saddle, and gaskets and place them on a clean surface. D. Tighten the corporation stop using a Smooth Jaw Wrench only on the corporation stop body. DO NOT USE A PIPE WRENCH. E. Remove the corp adapter using the REED RCORP wrench provided.

TM1100, CDTM1100, CDTM2100
Before Using 1. Clean and oil all bearing and wear surfaces and threads. 2. Inspect and clean tapping bits, and remove chips and scale.
Chips and scale may prevent proper function of the tool. 3. Inspect and clean the Boring Bar tool end. Chips and scale may
interfere with the insertion of the tapping bit or adapter shank.
After Using 1. Clean the machine and oil the machined surfaces. If necessary,
the top and bottom chambers can be easily disassembled to clean more thoroughly. 2. Lubricate the tool holding area of the boring bar with REED #98425 Tapping Compound. 3. Flush the bottom chamber with a water hose to remove any chips. DO NOT hammer frames to remove chips or debris Handle Carefully! 4. Protect threaded pieces by assembling them with their mating parts. 5. Periodically, inspect the Boring Bar’s o-ring seals and replace if worn. 6.
