Clamping pressure adjusting nut
(one side).
The correct clamping pressure depends on the
workpiece thickness. The ideal pressure will
have medium/hard resistance and will lock the
workpiece into position easily—much like a pair
of vice grips. This pressure is adjusted by moving
the clamping pressure adjusting nuts, shown in
Figure 16
, located on both sides of the pan and
box brake.
Adjusting Clamping
Pressure
To adjust the clamping pressure:
1.
Lower the bending leaf.
2.
Place the workpiece between the fingers and
the clamping block.
3.
Push the foot pedal down and lock it in
place.
— If the foot pedal will not lock in place,
loosen the clamping pressure evenly until
it will lock.
— If the foot pedal locks in place but the
workpiece is not clamped snug, tighten
the clamping pressure.
Aligning Fingers
Finger alignment is critical for accurate results.
Tools Needed:
QTY
