Capacities: 
 
This machine has been designed and tested for forming 20-26 Ga. galvanized.  If 
heavier material is run through the machine it can cause damage to a number of 
parts in the machine. 
 
The machine is designed to form a 3/8”-1/2” Long Hem on Pre-notched blanks, see 
notch diagram in the later part of the manual. 
 
Hem lengths may vary from different gauges.  Lighter gauges will have a slightly 
larger hem than heavier gauges.  If the hem is too short or long, simply move the 
feed gauge over accordingly. 
 
Drive Turn Knock Down 
 
This machine is designed with a knockdown pneumatic cylinder and photo eye.  
The photo eye will detect the sheet metal as it runs through the machine. 
 
If the First Light on the panel is lit it will hem over the first section of the part to be 
run through, skip the second, hit the 3

rd

, etc. 

 
If the Second Light on the panel is lit it will skip over the first section of the part to 
be run through, hem the second, skip the 3

rd

, etc. 

 
The State or order (First or Second) can be accomplished by either pushing the 
orange illuminated buttons on the panel OR with the foot pedal. 
 
The logic of the micro PLC is designed for an even number of hits per piece, ie 2 
sided duct or 4 sided duct.  If a 1 sided piece or a 3 sided piece is run through the 
machine it will through off the even sequence in the PLC.  To reset the PLC, press 
the stop button and then the start button and it will reset it.
