TURNING YOUR NEW
BENDER ON
1. Plug the power cord into a receptacle closest to the
available circuit panel.
IF SMOKE APPEARS OR SHORTING OCCURS,
DISCONNECT IMMEDIATELY!
RE-CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS.
2. After the bender is plugged in, turn the machine on
by depressing the “ON” button located on the lower
right-front side of the machine.
IF SMOKE APPEARS OR SHORTING OCCURS,
DISCONNECT IMMEDIATELY!
RECHECK ALL CONNECTIONS.
3. Let the bender run for approximately five minutes
without operating the controls.
4. At this time, it is necessary to install all control
handles by properly connecting the linkages as
shown.
5. After the bender is warmed up, retract the radius
die that contains the sample tube. On automatic
models do this by depressing the left foot switch.
On Blue-Bullet or manual models activate the knee
control valve by moving the handle to the right.
6. IF THE RADIUS DIE DOES NOT MOVE,
CONSULT THE FACTORY.
7. After the radius die has completely retracted,
remove the sample tubing that is in place.
8. Bring the radius die forward by depressing the right
foot switch or by moving the manual control valve
handle to the left.
9. Advance the radius die to l00 degrees then retract
fully. Repeat this sequence for at least five times.
The bending die may move erratically for the first
few cycles due to air trapped in the lines. This is
normal. The air will dissipate after use. Do not try to
“crack” a line to help the air escape.
10. At this time check for any possible leaks that could
have developed during shipment. Tighten any
hoses that may have loosened.
11. Check the oil level by observing the sight gauge
located near the right-rear side of the machine. If
the oil level appears low, add oil now. (See page 32
for recommended hydraulic oils.)
12. Activate the swaging and internal expander cylinders
by depressing the control handles located at the rear
of the machine. Cycle the cylinders to their full extent
at least fIve times. Again, these cylinders may act
erratically until the air dissipates.
TOOLING
Find the packing list that accompanied your bender,
itemizing each tool that was to be included in your tooling
package. Double check the pieces you received with
those that were checked off.
ALL THE TOOLS THAT
ARE CHECKED OFF IN THE “SHIPPED” COLUMN DID
SHIP WITH YOUR BENDER.
If you cannot find a certain
piece that you feel should be with the shipment, check
with the freight carrier or observe the packing list and
check the back ordered column. If a certain item is back
ordered it will be automatically forwarded to you. A
description of tooling is listed below.
RADlUS DIES-
These dies which are commonly referred
to as the “bending dies” come in different radii and tubing
sizes. Each die is machined and sized according to tubing
diameters. The proper tube size is stamped on the top of
each die. 112 represents 1-1/2” tubing, 134 represents
1-3/4” tubing etc. The radius dies are available in three
standard radii, 5”, 4” and 3-1/2”. Each standard radius die
represents half of a circle or diameter. 180 degree dies
are also available which represent three quarters of a
circle and allow the tubing to “wrap” around farther
although the radii are the same.
