Should have filmed it from the behind the operators to show the controls, and how the facing, heating and fusion levers work.

Nice video but it would be nice to see how long the process is when done with less talking and a more experienced operator.

Nice work mate. We just did a 560mm pipeline (raw water from borehole)near Retford in Nottinghamshire using the T900.Great piece of kit.Did around 13-16 joints on good days.560mm too big for polyhorse so used rollers.Hardest thing was getting them set up as pipe would sag more on hot days bending pipe ends up in clamps.Often had to move rollers-heavy and cumbersome.Got better pipe alignment by spacing out clamp nearest joint with washers and or nut.
