CAUTION: Sawyer Manufacturing oers a pair of easy to use
Rim Clamps for the purpose of welding two pipes together. We
recommend two or more people for the installaon of the Rim
Clamp. These clamps are not intended to be used as sole support
of the pipe nor to li the pipe. These clamps are designed to
reform pipe only and for alignment of tees, elbows, valves or other
forged ngs. Aer each use clean and store in a warm, dry area.

Operation
1. Unlatch the Locking Hook (G) by pulling on the Hook Release
Chain (H, Fig. 1)
Tip: Lightly rest clamp on at surface to release pressure
before unlatching
Note: 4” - 12” clamps may be placed over pipe manually. Larger clamps
must be placed by a liing device using the liing chain.
2. To center clamp on the pipe (Fig. 2) loosen all Reforming
Jackscrews (E) except the top 2 (Fig. 2a) before placing on
the pipe.
Tip: Use the seng gauge to preset the top 2 Reforming
Jackscrews before placing on the pipe
Note: If not loosened, the weight of the clamp may damage jackscrews
3. Lower clamp onto pipe so that Adjustable Jackbars (C) extend
approximately 2” beyond the end of the pipe. (Fig. 3)
As the clamp starts to close around the pipe, the Locking
Hook will automacally latch.
Note: If Locking Hook doesn’t automacally latch, the operator will need to
push the two sides together unl it latches
4. Center the clamp on the pipe using the Reforming Jackscrews
(E) to +/- 1”. Adjust Jackscrews on the Stable Jackbars
(I, Fig. 4) so that clamp is perpendicular to the pipe.
Note: Slight adjustments may be needed to Reforming Jackscrews (E).

5. To align secondary pipe/ng (Fig 5), top Adjustable
Jackbars (C) may be lied up by removing the Jackbar Latch
Pin (D) and rotang them out of the way.
6. When pipe joints are aligned, the Reforming Jackscrews (E)
can be ghtened to reform the pipe.
Tip: Only ghten Reforming Jackscrews on high spots, it is
not necessary to ghten all Reforming Jackscrews
Note: It is not necessary to use all of the Reforming Jackscrews (E), only
those that are over high spots and those located 180° (Fig. 6) from the
high spot. It will be necessary to reduce the pressure of some Jackscrews
as you ghten others. It may be necessary to repeat this procedure
several mes.
Tip: A small amount of pressure is all that is needed when
Reforming Jackscrews are used on the high spots
