PULLER BAR:
If the damage is severe, the technician my want to use the “Puller Bar” PB-207 (provided) for additional lever-
age. Simply put the electrode through the slot in the puller bar and repeat the procedure. Many Technicians pre-
fer the Puller Bar for pulling dents because of the ease of use and fine control of dent pulling effort find it easier
to use the puller bar for pulling dents. It requires less effort and gives better control while pulling.

your machine without a battery or a replacement is needed, the recommended replacement battery is a 12V,

reserve capacity of at least 140 minutes. Deep cycle and Marine batteries are not recommended.

the battery and extending battery life. The AIM Battery Charger can be operated at the same time the Panel
Beater dent pulling machine is in operation, however charger life will be extended if not charging during dent
pulling. For best operation, maintain the battery at full charge as much as possible.
