INTRODUCTION
All Victaulic Vic-Easy
of pipe to prepare it to receive Victaulic grooved pipe couplings. The VE270FSD is a completely selfcontained unit with a gear motor, safety foot switch and power cord/plug. The VE270FSD is
designed to roll groove pipe of various materials and wall thicknesses (see Tool Rating and Roll
Selection charts on pages 27 and 28.)
This tool and manual contains trademarks, copyrights and/or patented features which are the exclusive property of Victaulic Company of America.
• This tool should be used only for roll grooving pipe designated in the Tool Rating and Roll Selection charts on pages
27 and 28.
• Use of the tool for other purposes or exceeding the pipe thickness maximums will overload the tool, shorten tool life
and may cause tool damage.
POWER REQUIREMENTS
Power must be supplied through a safety foot switch to ensure safe operation. Be sure the tool is
properly grounded in accordance with Article 250 of the National Electrical Code. If an extension
cord is to be used, see Extension Cord Requirements for cord size recommendations.
®
Series 270FSD tools are semi-automated hydraulic feed tools for roll grooving
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, check the electrical source for proper grounding and follow
the instructions below.
• Before performing any repair or maintenance, disconnect the tool from the electrical source.
Failure to do so could result in death or serious personal injury.
EXTENSION CORD REQUIREMENTS
When pre-wired outlets are not available and an extension cord must be used, it is important to use
the proper cord size (e.g., conductor size American Wire gauge). Cord size selection is based upon
tool rating (amps) and cord length (feet). Use of a cord size (gauge) thinner than required will cause a
significant voltage drop at the gear motor while the tool is operating. The voltage drop may cause
damage to the gear motor and can result in failure of the tool to operate properly. Use of a heavier
than necessary cord size (gauge) is acceptable.
Listed in the chart below are recommended cord size (gauge) for cord lengths up to and including
100 feet. Use of extension cords beyond 100 feet in length should be avoided.

PRE-OPERATION
ADJUSTMENTS
Every Vic-Easy tool is checked, adjusted and
tested at the factory prior to shipment. Before
grooving, however, the following adjustments
must be made in sequence to make sure of
proper tool operation.
• Always unplug power cord before making any tool
adjustments, unless instructed otherwise.
Accidental start up of tool may result in serious
personal injury.
7
For maximum grooving roll life, remove foreign
material and loose rust.
• Foreign material such as coarse scale or dirt might
interfere with or damage the grooving rolls or
distort the groove. Rust is an abrasive material and
will tend to wear out the surface of grooving rolls.
Victaulic recommends that pipe shall be
square ended. When using beveled pipe, standard wall or less, the bevel should not exceed
37 ¹⁄₂ °. Square ended pipe must be used with

If a pipe shorter than the minimum shown in
Table 1 is needed, if possible, shorten the next
to last piece of pipe enough so that the last
piece of pipe is as long or longer than the minimum length specified in Table 1. See example
at right.
NOTICE
Pipe nipples shorter than those shown in Table 1 are
available from Victaulic.
Example: A 20' 4" length of 10" diameter pipe
is needed to finish a section and you only have
20' lengths available. Instead of roll grooving a
20' piece of pipe and a 4" piece of pipe, follow
these steps:
1. Refer to Table 1 and note that for 10" diameter pipe, the minimum length that should be
grooved is 10".
2. Roll groove a 19' 6" piece of pipe and a 10"
piece of pipe. Refer to Long Pipe Lengths
below.
LONG PIPE LENGTHS
With pipe in excess of the maximum length
shown in Table 1, a roller type pipe stand must
be used.
NOTICE
Figure 1 shows the Victaulic adjustable pipe stand
(VAPS 112). VAPS 112 is suitable for ³⁄₄" to 12" pipe.

• Pipe stand location will affect pipe tracking.
• Incorrect pipe stand position may result in pipe
being pushed out of rolls and falling.
Failure to position pipe and pipe stand in accordance
with Figures 1 and 2 (shown on page 8) may result in
serious personal injury or property damage.
Pipe position will affect pipe flare.
• When pipe end flare is excessive, right-to-left
tracking must be kept to a minimum. It may be
necessary to use less than ¹⁄₂ degree.
Make sure tool is level (see Tool Setup).
• If pipe is grooved with back end of pipe (end of pipe
which is not in tool) higher than the end being
grooved, pipe may not track and excessive pipe end
flare may result.
• Assembly of couplings on pipe exceeding Maximum
Allowable Flare, Column 8 in the Roll Groove
Specifications charts, pages 29 - 32, may prevent
closure of couplings pad-to-pad, allowing possible
pipe separation, and result in property damage.
• Also, joint leakage may result due to excessive
gasket distortion/damage.
NOTICE
For additional information about pipe stands, refer to
the Operating Instructions included with your pipe
stand.
ROLL GUARD ADJUSTMENT
The VE270FSD guards must be adjusted every
time rolls are changed or pipe size or wall
thickness is different from previous pipe
grooved.
1. Make sure the proper roll set is on the tool
for the pipe size and material to be grooved.
Rolls are marked with the pipe size, part number and are color coded for pipe material for
your convenience. See Tool Rating and Roll
Selection charts pages 27 and 28. If the proper
rolls are not on the tool, refer to Roll Changing
on page 16.
2. Loosen wing nuts and move the adjustable
guards to the full up position. Tighten wing
nuts.
• Always unplug the power cord before making any
roll guard adjustments.
Accidental start up of tool may result in serious
personal injury.

Grooving rolls can crush or cut
fingers and hands.
• Loading and unloading pipe
will place your hands close to
the rollers.
• Never groove pipe shorter
than what is recommended in
Table 1 on page 8.
5. Insert a piece of pipe of the correct size and
schedule/thickness to be grooved over the
lower roll with the pipe end against the lower
roll backstop flange. See Pipe Preparation on
page 7.
6. Close hand pump valve.

PIPE STABILIZER
ADJUSTMENT
(Applies only to tools equipped with the optional stabilizer.)
The Series VE270FSD Pipe Stabilizer (Optional)
is designed to prevent pipe sway on 8" through
12" nominal IPS pipe sizes. This applies to
short as well as long pipes. Once the stabilizer
is adjusted for a selected pipe size and wall
thickness, it does not require further adjustment on that size and thickness. Pipe of the
same size and thickness may be moved in and
out of the tool without retracting stabilizer.
• Unplug power cord until instructed otherwise.
Accidental start up of tool may result in serious
personal injury.
3. Insert a piece of pipe of the correct size and
schedule to be grooved over the lower roll with
the pipe end against the lower roll backstop
flange.
4. Close hand pump valve and pump upper
roll down into firm contact with pipe.
5. Make sure guards are properly adjusted per
the Roll Guard Adjustment Procedure, page 9.

6. Advance stabilizer roller inward with handwheel to the position indicated in Figure 3
below, then tighten locking handle.
Do not adjust stabilizer to push pipe to the left and off
center from the rolls (see Figure 4 at right). Doing so
will cause increased pipe end flare and shorten roller
life.
• Assembly of couplings on pipe exceeding Maximum
Allowable Flare, Column 8 in the Roll Groove
Specifications charts, pages 29 - 32, may prevent
closure of couplings pad-to-pad, allowing possible
pipe separation and result in property damage.

ments and groove the pipe (see Grooving
Operation pages 14 - 16.) Observe the stabilizer
roller while grooving. It should remain in contact with the pipe most of the time and the
pipe should rotate smoothly without swaying
from side to side. If not, advance stabilizer
roller further inward. Retest and make further
adjustments as necessary. Remember, do not
adjust stabilizer too far inward as it will skew
the pipe to the left and possibly result in excessive pipe end flaring.
GROOVE DIAMETER STOP
ADJUSTMENT
The groove diameter stop must be adjusted for
each pipe size or change in wall thickness.
Groove diameter, identified as the “C” dimension for each pipe size, is listed under Roll
Groove Specifications, pages 29 - 32. For your
convenience, a “C” Diameter Chart for Steel
Pipe is also on the tool.
VE270FSD
“INCORRECT”
Figure 4
“CORRECT”
Figure 3
NOTICE
To perform the following adjustments, use several
short scrap sections of pipe (but not shorter than what
is recommended in Table 1, page 8) of the proper
material, diameter and thickness to be grooved.
To achieve proper diameter:
1. Determine the diameter and thickness of
the pipe to be grooved. (See the Dimensions
Charts on page 33.)
2. Locate the proper diameter and thickness
on the pipe size indicator on the depth stop. It
is rotatable for easy viewing.

5. Prepare a trial groove. To do so, follow the
Grooving Operation Procedures outlined on
pages 14 - 16.
3. Back off the depth adjuster lock. Align the
depth adjuster with the proper diameter and
thickness as shown. Lock the depth adjuster in
position with the depth adjuster lock.
NOTICE
The markings provide an approximate groove
diameter adjustment and are not exact groove
diameter settings. Variations in actual pipe O.D.'s and
wall thicknesses make it impossible to calibrate the
diameter stop exactly.
6. After a trial groove is prepared and the pipe
is removed from the tool, carefully check the
groove diameter (“C” dimension), as charted on
pages 29 - 32 under Roll Groove Specifications.
The “C” dimension is best checked with a Pi
tape. It may also be checked with a vernier caliper or narrow land micrometer at two locations, 90 degrees apart, around the groove. The
average reading must be within the required
groove diameter specification.
4. Insert the pipe over the lower roll with the
pipe end against the lower roll back stop
flange.
Grooving rolls can crush or cut
fingers and hands.
• Always unplug the power cord
before adjusting guard.
• Be sure guard is properly
adjusted before grooving
pipe.
• Keep hands away from grooving rolls and stabilizer
wheel.
• Never reach inside pipe end or across the tool or
pipe during operation.
• Never groove pipe shorter than what is
recommended.
• Never wear loose clothing, loose gloves, or jewelry
while operating tool.
13
• The “C” dimension (groove diameter) must always
conform to specifications under Roll Groove
Specifications pages 29 - 32 to ensure proper joint
performance.
Failure to do so could result in personal injury,
property damage, improper installation, joint leakage
or joint failure.
7. If groove diameter (“C” dimension) is not
within tolerance, the diameter stop must be
adjusted to obtain the proper dimension. To
adjust for a smaller groove diameter, turn
the depth adjuster and depth adjuster lock
counterclockwise. To adjust for a bigger
groove diameter, turn the depth adjuster and
depth adjuster lock clockwise. A quarter turn
either way will change the groove diameter
adjustment by 0.031" (0.125" per full turn).
8. Prepare another trial groove and check the
groove diameter again. Repeat steps 6 and 7
until the groove diameter is within specification.

GROOVING OPERATION
• Vic-Easy Series VE270FSD tools are designed ONLY
for roll grooving pipe of the sizes, materials and
wall thicknesses outlined under Tool Rating and
Roll Selection charts on pages 27 and 28.
Grooving pipe other than that recommended will result
in improper pipe end configuration or improper groove
dimensions for applying Victaulic products.
Before grooving, make sure you have followed
all instructions in:
• “Tool Setup” on page 3
• “Grooving Rolls” on page 7
• “Pipe Preparation” on page 7
• “Groovable Pipe Lengths” on page 7
• “Roll Guard Adjustment” on page 9
• “Pipe Stabilizer Adjustment” on page 11
• “Groove Diameter Stop Adjustment” on
page 12
• Before operating tool, review
all safety precautions on
page 3.
Failure to do so may result in
serious personal injury.
3. Open hydraulic pump pressure release
valve by turning counterclockwise. This will
allow upper roll and arm to move to full up position.
• Keep hands away from grooving rolls and stabilizer
wheel.
• Never reach inside pipe end or across the tool or
pipe during operation.
• Never groove pipe shorter than what is
recommended.
• Never wear loose clothing, loose gloves, or jewelry
while operating tool.
VE270FSD
Grooving rolls can crush or cut
fingers and hands.
• Always unplug the power cord
before adjusting guard.
• Be sure guard is properly
adjusted before grooving pipe.
• To reduce the risk of electric
shock, check the electrical
source for proper grounding
and follow the instructions
below.
Failure to do so could result in
death or serious personal
injury.
1. Plug the VE270FSD into an internally
grounded electrical source. Make sure motor is
grounded.
2. Actuate safety foot switch by pressing foot
on pedal to be certain tool is operational, power
supply is available, and that lower roll is turning clockwise when viewed from the front.
Remove foot from foot switch.
4. Insert a piece of pipe of the correct size and

9. Depress and hold down safety foot switch.
The pipe will begin to rotate clockwise. As the
pipe rotates, begin grooving by slowly pumping the pump handle.
NOTICE
Do not pump too fast, but at a rate sufficient to groove
the pipe and maintain audible moderate-to-heavy load
on the gear motor.
10. Continue grooving until the depth stop
comes into full, firm contact with top of tool
body. Continue pipe rotation for one (1) to three
(3) revolutions to assure groove completion.
11. Release safety foot switch and withdraw
foot from switch.
Grooving rolls can crush or cut
fingers and hands.
• Do not place hand(s) inside
end of pipe to pull pipe out of
tool or place hand(s) in area
of grooving rolls or stabilizer
roller.

MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
This manual provides information on keeping
tools in top operating condition and guidance
in making repairs when it becomes necessary.
Replacement parts, applicable only to these
tools, should be ordered from Victaulic to
assure proper operation of the tool. All parts are
FOB Easton, Pennsylvania, at the price in
effect at the time of ordering.
2. Grease main shaft bearings at grease fitting
with a No. 2EP Lithium base grease.
NOTICE
Remember that preventative maintenance during
operation will pay for itself in repair and operating
savings.
• Before performing any repair
or maintenance, unplug the
tool from the electrical source
to prevent accidental start up
of tool.
Failure to do so could result in
death or serious personal
injury.
3. Lubricate the linkage mechanisms, the arm
pivot point, and the arm sliding surfaces. A
heavy duty spray lubricant may be used or
apply grease by hand.
LUBRICATION
After every 8 hours of operation lubricate the
machine. Always lubricate upper roll bearings
when rolls are changed.
1. Grease upper roll bearing at fitting provided
as shown with a No. 2EP Lithium base grease.
21
4. Lubricate the optional stabilizer wheel with

STANDARD ROLL GROOVE SPECIFICATIONS NOTES (FROM PAGE 29):
Tolerance
+ – Basic
COLUMN 1: Nominal IPS pipe size.
COLUMN 2: IPS outside diameter: The outside diameter of roll grooved pipe shall not vary more than the tolerance listed. For
IPS pipe the maximum allowable tolerance from square cut ends is 0.030" for ³⁄₄ - 3¹⁄₂"; 0.045" for 4 - 6"; and 0.060" for sizes
8" O.D. and above measured from true square line.
COLUMN 3: Gasket seat: The pipe surface shall be free from indentations, roll marks, and projections from the end of the pipe
to the groove, to provide a leak-tight seal for the gasket. All loose paint, scale, dirt, chips, grease and rust must be removed. It
continues to be Victaulic’s first recommendation that pipe be square cut. When using beveled pipe contact Victaulic for details.
Square cut pipe must be used with FlushSeal
IMPORTANT: Roll grooving of beveled end pipe may result in unacceptable pipe end flare. See column 8.
COLUMN 4: Groove width: Bottom of groove to be free of loose dirt, chips, rust and scale that may interfere with proper coupling
assembly. Corners at bottom of groove must be radiused. For IPS steel pipe, .06R on ³⁄₄ - 1¹⁄₂", .08R on 2 - 6", .05R on 8" and up.
COLUMN 5: Groove outside diameter: The groove must be of uniform depth for the entire pipe circumference. Groove must be
maintained within the “C” diameter tolerance listed.
COLUMN 6: Groove depth: For reference only. Groove must conform to the groove diameter “C” listed.
COLUMN 7: Minimum allowable wall thickness: This is the minimum wall thickness which may be roll grooved – except
PVC.
COLUMN 8: Maximum allowable pipe end flare diameter: Measured at the most extreme pipe end diameter square cut or
beveled.

COLUMN 1: Nominal IPS pipe size.
COLUMN 2: IPS outside diameter. Metric (ISO) outside diameter: The outside diameter of roll grooved pipe shall not vary
more than the tolerance listed. For IPS pipe, the maximum allowable tolerance from square cut ends is 0.030" for ³⁄₄ - 3¹⁄₂" (26,9
- 101,6 mm); 0.045: for 4 - 6" (114,3 - 168,3 mm); and 0.060" for sizes 8" O.D. (203,2 mm) and above measured from true
square line. For (ISO) metric pipe, the maximum allowable tolerance from square cut ends is 0.76 mm for sizes 26,9 mm - 88,9
mm; 1.14 mm for sizes 114,3 mm - 168,3 mm; and 1.52 mm for sizes 219,1 mm and above, measured from the true square line.
COLUMN 3: Gasket seat: The pipe surface shall be free from indentations, roll marks, and projections from the end of the pipe to
the groove, to provide a leak-tight seal for the gasket. All loose paint, scale, dirt, chips, grease and rust must be removed. Square
cut pipe must be used with FlushSeal
®
and EndSeal® gaskets. Gasket seat “A” is measured from the end of the pipe. IMPORTANT:
Roll grooving of beveled end pipe may result in unacceptable pipe end flare. See column 8.
COLUMN 4: Groove width: Bottom of groove to be free of loose dirt, chips, rust and scale that may interfere with proper coupling
assembly. Corners at bottom of roll groove must be radiused. For IPS pipe, 0.04R on 1¹⁄₂ - 12" (48,3 - 323,9 mm). For (ISO)
metric pipe, 1.2R mm on 26,9 - 323,9 mm.
COLUMN 5: Groove outside diameter: The groove must be uniform depth for the entire pipe circumference. Groove must be
maintained within the “C” diameter tolerance listed.
COLUMN 6: Groove depth: For reference only. Groove must conform to the groove diameter “C” listed.
COLUMN 7: Minimum allowable wall thickness: This is the minimum wall thickness which may be grooved.
COLUMN 8: Maximum allowable pipe end flare diameter: Measured at the most extreme pipe end diameter square cut or
beveled.
