Product Usage

Operating Instructions

  1. If the grinder is capable of multiple speeds, set it to the fastest speed. Turn on the grinder and place the guide plate flat against the end of the pipe.
  2. Slowly bring the router bit against the edge of the pipe until the bearing at the end of the bit is contacting the pipe.
  3. Slowly rotate the beveler counterclockwise for an OD bevel and clockwise for an ID bevel, being sure to keep the bearing in contact with the pipe.
  4. A second quick pass around the pipe may be needed if the bevel is not smooth.
  5. An uneven bevel can happen if the guide plate is not kept perpendicular to the pipe and the bearing on the router bit is not kept against the pipe.

Additional Instructions

  1. Remove the battery from the grinder before any work is to be done on the grinder.
  2. Remove wax protective coating on the new router bit. The router bit is not supplied with CPBDADP beveler adapter and must be purchased separately.
  3. Place the router bit into the grinder collet and slide the bit down until it stops (bottoms out) and hand tighten the collet.
  4. Raise the bit up until the unfinished shaft is just visible above the collet. Tighten the collet with the wrenches provided with the grinder.
  5. FIRMLY TIGHTEN THE COLLET to prevent the router bit from coming loose while operating and causing damage or injury.
  6. Place the beveler attachment #04648 onto the grinder with the Adjusting Knob in line with the grinder’s on/off switch as shown in Assembly Diagram 1. The rib on the grinder handle must fit into the groove in the Adapter.
  7. Loosen the adjusting screw and slide the guide plate assembly to the lowest position. Push down on the Adapter with a rocking motion until the top of the guide plate is in line with the bottom of the Router Bit.
  8. Slide the guide plate assembly up and tighten the clamp screw on the adapter.
  9. Adjust the guide plate to the desired length of bevel and tighten the adjusting knob screw.

REED Bevel Boss™ Cordless Pipe Bevelers (CPB) are designed for use with a cordless die grinder to bevel the outside diameter and/or inside diameter of plastic pipe. The CPBDADP and CPBMADP beveler adapters are designed for use ONLY with a DeWalt® / Milwaukee® cordless die grinder. Assembly instructions are provided in this document. REED CPBDK kit is complete with beveler attachment with exterior shroud, Router Bit RBIT1, die grinder, DeWalt® battery and charger in a storage case. The CPBDBT base tool with beveler attachment and die grinder requires a router bit and DeWalt® battery. Refer to these instructions for assembly of bit into beveler. Many users already own the battery and are able to use it on this REED tool.

NOTE: Internal shroud CPBIDS #94644 must used for beveling the inside diameters and is available as an accessory.

PERSONAL SAFETY

  1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
  2. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
  3. Always wear eye protection.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

This tool is to be used on plastic pipe only. To adjust depth of chamfer, loosen the adjusting knob and slide the guide plate up or down until the required amount of the router bit is exposed above the guide plate and tighten the adjusting knob. To the left side of the Adjusting Knob there are four engraved lines on Adapter with 1/8” increments. When using the RBIT1 bit with the Adjusting Ring all the way to the bottom, the beveler will cut a 5/8” long bevel. By lining up the bottom of the Adjusting Ring with the engraved line, the length of the bevel is reduced by 1/8” for each line.

If the grinder is capable of multiple speeds, set the grinder to the fastest setting. Turn on grinder and place guide plate flat against the end of pipe. Slowly bring the router bit against edge of pipe until the bearing at the end of the bit is contacting the pipe. Slowly rotate the beveler counterclockwise for an OD bevel and clockwise for an ID bevel, being sure to keep the bearing in contact with pipe. A second quick pass around the pipe may be needed if the bevel is not smooth. An uneven bevel can happen if the guide plate is not kept perpendicular to the pipe and the bearing on the router bit is not kept against the pipe.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS RBIT2 (1” BIT) ONLY

The RBIT2 (1” bit) removes a large amount of material. Therefore, it is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED when cutting a ¾” to 1” depth bevel to make two passes around the pipe, removing half of the material with each pass. For the first pass set the Adjusting Ring so it lines up with the engraved line to the right of the Adjusting Screw and make the first pass around the pipe. To complete the bevel, readjust the Adjusting Ring to remove the remainder of the material.
