Section 1
1.0 General Description
1.1 Overview
The Pipe Cutter was designed to cut Single and Multiple strings of pipe,
using Pump Pressure to actuate Three Knife Arms. Different lengths of
Knife Arms are used, depending on the size of cut to be made. The
Pipe Cutter works on the principal of Flow Restriction across an orifice
while cutting, and a Pressure Drop when the pre-set diameter of the Knife
Arms are reached. This provides an indication that the Casing has been
cut.
The Knife Return System has been integrated into the Pipe Cutter to allow
for a mechanical means of preventing unwanted knife opening when
tripping in and out of hole.
All Tools in this series have either a straight or stub acme thread interface,
Body to Top Sub.
The tool design still uses original Bowen parts.

4.4 Check the condition of the [26] Knife Return Piston (0520-0031) and
ensure the [24] Piston O-Ring (0520-0035) is fitted to the Piston and
appears to be in satisfactory condition. Insert [26] Piston into the lower
bore of the [01] Body (0520-0096).

Section 4 Assembly
4.5 In the body re-insert one knife arm and one [23] knife hinge pin (0520-
0006). Rotate this arm round until its heel is in contact with the front of the
return piston. Apply pressure onto the return piston though the knife while
doing this slot the [26] Piston Key (0520-0032) into the [01] Body.
Continue to force the Piston down until the [26] Piston Key falls fully home
into the Body slot.
4.6 To secure the Return Piston Key [26] in place fit two off [27] Socket Head
Cap-Screws (0620-0021). The force exerted onto the Piston can now be
slackened off and the knife and hinge pin removed.
4.7 Fitting the Knife Arms
Note: The Flotel of 8 " Pipe Cutters are normally set to the maximum opening
of the Knives then the Flotel is turned back one full turn. This turning back
of the Flotel will result in a drop in the knife opening O.D of approximately
0.25" For Flotel setting, refer to 4.26. Then the other two Knife Arms will
be fitted.
Note: If other Knife Arms are subsequently fitted, refer to Appendix, page 26, for
corresponding Pressure Drop Diameters.
Note: For Part Numbers of Standard and Heavy Duty Knife Arms, refer to
drawing RB01-A-082-A08. A reference copy is available on page 29.
Refer to RB01-A-082-T10, if other Knife Arm Opening Diameters are
required. A reference copy is available on page 31. Always check the
latest revision of drawings.
Check that the Knife Arm and dressing are free from defects.
Rotate the [29] Body (0520-0096) such that a pocket is at 90 to
the perpendicular axis. This will allow the Knife Arm to be slid
into the pocket sideways, with its weight taken by the tool,
reducing the risk of injury.
The Hinge Pin Hole should be accessible such that the [22]
Knife Hinge Pin (0520-0005) can be installed by pushing down
on it from above.
Check the condition of the [22] Hinge Pin. With the Knife Arm
held in general alignment with the Hinge Pin hole, insert the [22]
Hinge Pin, non scallop end first, to secure the Knife Arm.
Rotate the [22] Hinge Pin to ensure that the scallop is aligned
with the [23] Knife Hinge Pin SHCS KCP (3302-0016) location.
Check the [23] Knife Hinge Pin SHCS KCP are supplied with a
Nylok insert.
Section 4 Assembly
Install and torque to 115ftlbs.
Note: When knives are fitted, ensure they are flush or below the O.D. of the tool.
4.8 Check the condition of the [20] Piston Spring (0520-0009) and [06] Flotel
Spring (0530-0027). Check the Free Length of each Spring.
Note: The [06] Flotel Spring is welded to the [07] Flotel Spring Carrier
(0520-0025).

4.11 Fit the [12] Piston O.D. Seal complete with Seal Plate and Snap Ring
(B147012). With the Seal and Seal Plate in position, slight compression is
required to fit the Snap Ring. When one end of the Snap Ring is located in
the groove, it then needs to be eased round the rest of the groove. It may
be necessary to check the Snap Ring is fully located by chasing it into the
groove with a light hammering action, using a screwdriver or dolly bar.
4.12 Make up the Nozzle Assembly. Check all sub assembly parts for damage,
i.e. washout.

Figure 8
Piston Nozzle and Bushing Assemblies
4.13 Fit the external [17] Nozzle O.D. O-Ring (3302-0026) in the outside

Silicone Lubricant.
4.14 Fit the internal [05] Nozzle O-Ring (3302-0023) in the inside diameter
groove of the [15] Bush-Nozzle, using Molykote III Silicone Lubricant.
4.15 Insert the [18] Nozzle, HUGHES K 22 (3302-0016) in to the [15] Bush-
Nozzle. Ensure the Entry of the [18] Nozzle is directed to the [01] Top
Sub. Refer to the drawing RB01-A-082-A05, page 28. Fit the [03] Nozzle
Circlip (3302-0024) to secure the [18] Nozzle.
4.16 Install this sub assembly in to the [19] Piston bore (0520-0008)
4.17 Fit the internal [16] Piston I.D O-Ring (0520-0011), using Molykote III
Silicone Lubricant.
4.18 Install the [14] Piston Bushing (0502-0019) into the bore above the [15]
Bush-Nozzle, with the beveled bore facing up. Fit the [13] Piston Bushing
Circlip (0502-0020) to secure the [14] Piston Bushing (0502-0019).
Section 4 Assembly
The Piston Assembly is ready for assembly in to the Body of the Tool.
4.19 Make up the Flotel Assembly. See Figure 9.

Figure 9
Flotel Assembly
4.20 Check the Flotel Assembly components for damage, i.e. washout.
Note: Particular care should be given to the [11] Bit Jet Retaining Stem
(0502-0025) This has a ground Haystellite Composite Powder No.4, build
up on its interface with the [14] Piston Bushing (0502-0019).
Note: The [10] Bit Jet Retainer (B147015) has three flats milled, at 120, along
its external length. These interact with the [08] Stop Spider Set Screw
(0520-0020) used to locate the [09] Stop Spider (B145168).
4.21 Screw the [11] Bit Jet Retaining Stem (0502-0025) to the [10] Bit Jet
Retainer Torque up with Stilson wrench (Rigid tong).
Note: This is a Tapered Thread and is Self Sealing. It is prudent to apply
Loctite 242 to assist in the sealing requirement.
4.22 Install the internal [05] Bit Jet O-Ring (3302-0023) in to the upper bore of
the [10] Bit Jet Retainer. Refer to Figure 10.
Section 4 Assembly

Figure 10
Bit Jet Nozzle Assembly, in the Bit Jet Retainer
4.23 Install the [04] Bit Jet Retainer Nozzle, HUGHES K 16 (3302-0010) in to
the upper bore of the [10] Bit Jet Retainer (B147015), and secure in place
with the [03] Bit Jet Circlip (3302-0024). Ensure the entry of the [04] Bit
Jet Retainer Nozzle is directed to the [01] Top Sub. Refer to drawing
RB01-A-082-A05, page 28
4.24 Screw the [09] Stop Spider (B145168) on to the [10] Bit Jet Retainer.
Do not fit the [08] Stop Spider Set Screws (0520-0020) at this time.
4.25 Install the Piston Assembly in to the [29] Body (0520-0096) without the [20]
Piston Spring (0520-0009) Maintain the Knife Arm in the horizontal
position, to ensure ease of manipulation.
Note: When the Knife Arm is moved into the pocket, to the closed position, it
pushes the Piston Assembly back up the bore of the Tool. If difficulty is
experienced during the following adjustments, it is acceptable not to fit the
[12] Piston O.D. Seal (B147012). Ensure that it is fitted on completion.
4.26 Setting the Flotel. Extend the Knife Arm. Using a Tape, measure the
distance from the tip of the Knife Arm to the OD of the Body, (note that this
gives an approximate opening size, multiply this distance by two and add
the Body diameter). Another method is to measure the opening using two
Tee squares off the Body and calculate the opening in a similar fashion.
Hold the Knife Arm in this position. Move the Piston Assembly down the
bore of the [29] Body, until it touches the heel of the Knife Arm. Adjust the
position of the [09] Stop Spider (B145168) on the [10] Bit Jet Retainer
(B147015), until the [09] Stop Spider shoulders out on the upper bore
restriction of the [29] Body. At the SAME TIME the ground surface of the
[11] Bit Jet Retainer Stem (0502-0025) should come to rest on the ground
seat of the [14] Piston Bushing (0502-0019). Once all parts are set the [08]
Stop Spider should be turned back one full turn. See Appendix 9.1 for a
full outline of this.
Section 4 Assembly
4.27 Remove the Flotel Assembly. Make minor adjustments to the [09] Stop
Spider to align the three off drill and tapped holes for the [08] Stop Spider
Set Screws (0520-0020) with the flats on the [10] Bit Jet Retainer. Fit the
three off [08] Stop Spider Set Screws.
4.28 Screw the [07] Flotel Spring Carrier (0520-0025) with [06] Flotel Spring
(0530-0027) on the [10] Bit Jet Retainer, until it shoulders out against the
[09] Stop Spider. Lock the [07] Flotel Spring Carrier in position using the
three off [08] Flotel Spring Carrier Set Screws (0520-0020).
Note: The [06] Flotel Spring is welded to the [07] Flotel Spring Carrier.
The Flotel/Bit Jet Assembly is ready for final assembly in to the Tool.
4.29 Install the [20] Piston Spring (0520-0009) and Piston Assembly, complete
with [12] Piston O.D. Seal (B147012), in to the [29] Body (0520-0096).
Ensure that the [12] Piston O.D. Seal has fully entered the lower bore of
the [29] Body. Check the nose of the [19] Piston (0520-0008) is located in
the small bore immediately above the knife location.
4.30 Fit the other two Knife Arms. Refer to Sections 4.7.
Note: As the tool is rotated the Knife Arms will tend to Rotate Open in the lower
positions.
4.31 Function test the Tool to prove that the knife Arms rotate into the open
position and that the Knife Return System returns the Knife flush with the
Body on de-activation
4.32 Using a Fork Lift or other suitable means, with a Bar fitted, move the
Piston down the Tool and ensure that the Knives move out.
4.33 Install the Flotel/Bit Jet Assembly above the [19] Piston (0520-0008). The
Flotel Assembly should be directed to the [01] Top Sub (0520-0036).
Refer to drawing RB01-A-082-A05, page 28, for the correct orientation.
4.34 Do not band the Knives closed in the [29] Body of the Tool.
4.35 Pick up the [01] Top Sub and install the two off [02] Top Sub O-Rings
(0520-0023) in the external seal grooves.
4.36 Check the threads on the [01] Top Sub and [29] Body are clean and free
from damage. Apply thread dope. Ensure that both parts are in alignment
and carefully screw together. As Tools are generally sent out with a Loose
Joint, this connection should NOT be torqued up. This is identified with
Loose Joint Tape. This allows the Operator to check the Tool, and then
torque up.
Section 4 Assembly
Note: If the connection is required to be made up, ensure both parts are in
alignment and carefully screw the two components together (6.688" Dia. x
5 T.P.I. RIGHT HAND FULL ACME THREAD).
4.37 Lubricate the end connections and fit appropriate Protectors.
4.38 Refer to Section 6 for Identification and Shipping/Storage Instructions.
