SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
While using manual equipment, tools and saws, the principal requirements for reducing
the risk of injuries are the careful handling, the respect of the instructions for use and of
the safety laws in force.
Carelessness and the lack in respecting safety rules can be cause of injuries in the
workplace.

Firmly tighten: check that the pipe is firmly tighten to a
support (we suggest RITMO
product “Inclinable pipe support” cod. 99601000 - fig. 2)
and that the scraper is firmly
locked in the pipe. A scarce clamping can make the
pipe or the support fall compromising
the scraping, an excessive clamping of the tool in the
pipe can ruin or brake the aluminum
clamps; in both cases the situation is dangerous for the
operator with the risk of injuries.
Tools maintenance: sharp and clean tools give better results and are safer; carefully read
the section about the instructions for the maintenance of this manual. Immediately replace
the worn, broken or lost parts; it is not admitted the use of a tool or a machine with
components which do not work properly or are missing; worn, broken or lost components
can be cause of risk for the operator: the tool can suddenly brake and compromise the
safety of the surrounding environment. Carefully place the tool in the special case; a
scarce attention may damage the ends of scraper arm, the clamps and the extensions. The
clamps, if damaged or dirty, may prevent extensions positioning or a good fixing.
Use suitable work garments: the tool has a little sharp blade: we suggest to wear suitable
protective gloves. Avoid to keep belts untied, rags jutting from the pockets, long hair and
beard untied: they may get caught in the moving parts endangering the operator and
compromising the scraping.
Keep workplace clean: untidy and dirty workplaces, because of their scarce efficiency,
are cause of injuries in workplaces: it is necessary to keep clean and tidy workplaces.
WARNING: the tool is supplied with a small blade which can cause injuries to the operator if
incorrectly handled.
ritmo S.p.A. is not responsible for damages or injuries to persons caused by the non reading
of this manual.
PREPARE THE PIPE
A correct scraping is extended from the edge of
the pipe, for a length a little longer than half the
length of the fitting. Before starting working it is
useful to mark on the pipe the limit of the
scraping, bringing the pipe near the fitting and
marking the line from which the pipe is
uncovered.

After scraping operation the end of the pipe has to be chamfered (we suggest to use RITMO “SME
1” chamfering tool for diameters 25160mm wth max. thickness=10mm and “SME 2 PLUS”for
diameters 40315mm with max. thickness=35mm ), and the internal part of the pipe’s end has to
be trimmed (we suggest the use of RITMO “Trimming knife”); now pipe is clean and ready to be
electrofused.
