 Installation tips Step 1 – Cut pipe to length using a rotary plastic
pipe cutter as shown. Where possible clamp the
and jointing pipe in a vice, avoiding excessive distortion. The
pipe must be cut square. The use of a rotary pipe

procedure cutter is preferred over the use of a hacksaw as the

finish is clean, leaving no loose swarf or burr on the
pipe. If a saw is used, it is essential that all burrs

Joint integrity is greatly reduced if these surfaces are
not absolutely clean and properly prepared.

Safety information
