equipment and the operator.
3. For folding stands, make sure the legs are fully open and
the feet sit squarely on the floor.

properly adjusted for pipe size. Ball transfer heads can be
used with the VJ and VF stands. Make sure fasteners are
secure.

Models equipped with jack screw for fine adjustment: Hold
the head assembly stationary and turn the jack screw
handle to position as desired. Do not force the jack
screw handle, this can allow the screw to come loose
from the stand.
6. Place stands to properly support the pipe. Generally
pipe should be supported in at least two places. The
number and placement of stands depend on the specific circumstances, including pipe size, length and weight.
7. Carefully place the pipe on the stands. Make sure that the
pipe is properly centered on the stands to reduce the
risk of tipping. Do not drop the pipe onto the stands. Do not
exceed the stand ratings. Make sure pipe is stable and
secure. Always stay clear of supported loads.
