A shelter may be required for the fusion <br />welding machine to allow operations to continue in adverse weather conditions. <br /> <br />• Verify that heater plate surface temperatures are maintained between 375°F and 400°F <br />for both coated plates and uncoated plates. Verify that operator checks heater plate <br />surface temperatures with pyrometer. <br /> <br />• Verify that inside and outside of pipe ends are cleaned to remove dirt, water, grease, and <br />other foreign material. <br />
