OPERATION
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT
run the magnetic brake
without material between the clamping bar and the
electromagnetic work bench. After releasing the
electromagnet, residual magnetism could still hold down the
clamp bar.
Sheet Metal Bending
1. If you are using the clamp bars with the lifting balls, make
sure they are both properly seated in the pockets of the
workbench. (fig. 6)
2. Remove or install the bending leaf extension as needed for
the material to be formed.
Note:
The bending extension is typically on the
bending leaf. It can be removed to create shorter reverse
bends. When forming around round stock as in Rolling and
Edge, the extension bar is typically installed. The bending leaf
extension is shown installed.
3. Set the machine for the material thickness you will be
bending. Raise the bending leaf 90° as shown in (fig. 7).
Rotate the knobs on each end of the clamping bar which
adjusts the setback distance gap. Set this gap at slightly
more than the material thickness to achieve an accurate
bend. There are three positions on the knobs (0 – 1 – 2)
which are useful when doing repeat bending.
CAUTION:
Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety
footwear, and leather gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges.
When handling large heavy materials make sure they are properly supported.
Keep hands and fingers clear of the clamping beam. Stand off to the side of the
machine to avoid getting hit with the bending apron as it comes up to bend.
The bending brake poses a pinching hazard. Make sure no body part or clothing
comes between the clamping bar and the bending leaf.
