3. Ciri-ciri Produk
- Reams 3-Inch Schedule 40 PVC, CPVC, and ABS fittings.
- Compatible with standard drills, cordless drills, and impact drills.
- Effective for vent lines, drain lines, and water lines (non-pressurized).
- Features a 4-sided carbide insert for extended cutting life.

4. Persediaan
- Sediakan Paip: Before reaming, cut the broken pipe flush with the fitting. A hacksaw or battery grinder with a metal cutting blade can be used for this. Ensure the cut is as flat as possible.
- Insert into Drill: Securely insert the reamer's hexagonal shank into the chuck of your drill. Ensure the chuck is tightened firmly to prevent slippage. A 1/2-inch drill is recommended for better grip, though a 3/8-inch drill may also work.
- Secure the Fitting: If possible, secure the fitting to prevent it from moving during the reaming process. For vertical pipes, ensure stability.
5. Arahan Operasi
- Peletakan Awal: Carefully center the reamer over the pipe stub inside the fitting.
- Drill Speed and Pressure: Set your drill to a low speed. Apply light, consistent pressure. Avoid excessive force, as this can cause the tool to jump or melt the plastic instead of cutting.
- Pelinciran: To prevent the plastic from melting and to ensure a clean cut, lubricate the reamer with cold water periodically during operation. Dribble cold water onto the cutting head.
- Clear Shavings: Frequently lift the reamer in and out of the fitting to clear plastic shavings. For vertical pipes, use a shop vacuum to remove shavings and prevent them from falling into the drain system.
- Kedalaman Monitor: Do not ream all the way through the fitting. Leave approximately 1/8 to 3/16 of an inch of the original socket at the bottom. This provides a stop for the new pipe and helps maintain the integrity of the connection.
- Kemasan Lancar: The reamer is designed to leave a smooth surface. After reaming, inspect the fitting for any rough edges.

6. Penyelenggaraan
- Carbide Insert Rotation: The PPR300 features a 4-sided carbide insert. If the cutting edge becomes dull, rotate the insert 180 degrees to expose a fresh cutting edge. Use the provided hex key for this procedure.
- Pembersihan: After each use, clean the reamer to remove any plastic residue. This helps maintain its cutting efficiency and extends its lifespan.
- Storan: Store the reamer in a dry place to prevent corrosion and damage.
