3.Place the support reasonably. Put one end of the pipe on the lower roll of the machine, and the other end on the pipe support, the pipe support should be placed at 2/3 of the total length of the pipe, then adjust the height of pipe support to horizontal or 1 degree lower. If the pipe walks off during grooving, try to adjust the position and height of the support.
