IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

•  Conduit moves rapidly as it is bent. The path of 

the conduit must be clear of obstructions. Be sure 

clearance is adequate before starting the bend.

•  Wear proper apparel. Do not wear loose clothing, 

gloves, neckties, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry 

which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip 

footwear is recommended. Wear protective hair 

covering to contain long hair.

•  Do not force rollers or alter tool. It will do the 

job better and safer at the rate for which it was 

designed.

•  Use right tool. Do not force tool or attachment to do 

a job for which it was not designed.

•  Use this tool for the manufacturer’s intended 

purpose only. Use other than that which is 

instructed in this manual can result in injury or 

 property  damage.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in 

injury or property damage.

•  Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas and benches 

invite accidents.

•  Keep children away. All visitors should be kept safe 

distance from work area.

•  Make workshop kid proof with padlocks, master 

switches, or by removing starter keys.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in 

injury or property damage.

•  Inspect the bender before use. Replace worn, 

damaged, or missing parts with Greenlee replace-

ment parts. A damaged or improperly assem-

bled component could break and strike nearby 

personnel.

•  Maintain tools with care. Keep tool clean for best 

and safest performance. Follow instructions for 

lubricating and changing accessories.

•  Check damaged parts. Before further use of the 

tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should 

be carefully checked to determine that it will 

operate properly and perform its intended func-

tion. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding 

of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and 

any other conditions that may affect its operation. 

A guard or other part that is damaged should be 

properly repaired or replaced.

•  Use recommended accessories. Consult the 

instruction manual for recommended accessories. 

The use of improper accessories may cause risk of 

injury to persons.

•  Some bender parts and accessories are heavy 

and may require more than one person to lift and 

assemble.

Failure to observe these precautions may result in 

injury or property damage.

Note:  Keep all decals clean and legible, and replace 

when necessary.
