Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Identify a stable, level surface such as a workbench or the floor.
- Position the pipe bender and align the four pre-drilled holes with the mounting surface.
- Secure the bender using appropriate bolts and anchors suitable for your mounting surface (not included).
- Select the appropriate die roller for your desired bend and material, and install it according to the machine's design.
- Adjust the bending lever to its shortest setting initially, then extend as needed.
Compatibility:
The bender is designed for:
- Strip steel: Up to 50 mm width and 6 mm thickness for standard bends, and up to 50 mm width and 4 mm thickness for sharp bends.
- Round steel: Up to Ø 12 mm.
- Square steel: Up to 16 mm width and 6 mm thickness.
Care:
- Regularly clean the machine after use to remove metal shavings and debris.
- Lubricate moving parts, such as the lever mechanism and die roller housing, periodically to ensure smooth operation.
- Inspect for any signs of wear or damage, particularly on the dies and bending arm.
- Store in a dry environment to prevent rust.
