HDPE/MDPE Quick Guide - Manual Fusion (Step 6 of 7)

  1. Fuse & Cool
  • Close the carriage quickly and smoothly with enough FUSING force to roll both melt beads over so that they touch the piping component OD surfaces.
  • Hold FUSING force for 10 SECONDS, then the LOCKING CAM will hold that jaw position. (For the 2CU, hold FUSING force for the entire COOLING time.)
  • Leave the LOCKING CAM engaged until COOLING time is complete.
