Cutting a Recess in Concrete Pipe (Fig. P)

WARNING: Before making any cuts, make sure the
pipe is properly secured on a non-slipsurface.
Several cuts are needed to make a recess cut in
concrete pipe and it is important to make the cuts in the
propersequence.
1. First make two cuts along the length of the pipe.
Always make an axial cut to avoid pinching of the
cuttingwheel.
2. Insert wedges into thecuts.
3. Make the third and fourth cuts to complete therecess.
4. If the severed part remains after all four cuts are made,
do not make any more cuts. Break the severed partout.
