OPERATION
• Measure and mark the desired bend line on the workpiece panel.
• Slide metal panel between the Dies lining up your pre-marked bend line with the sharp, beveled
edge of the Male Die
(FIG 2)
.
• Gently and slowly draw the Vise jaws together to begin creating the desired bend.
NOTE:
The use of an angle gauge or protractor (not included) is recommended.
• Depending on the alloy being bent, it may be necessary to push the dies slightly beyond the
desired finished angle to allow for “springback”. Some trial and error is suggested using scrap
material before making final bends.
