Clamp Alignment (end to
end)
Make a 90° test bend about 2”
(50.8mm) in from each end of the
machine. Stack the bent strips on top
of each other and check that they are
bent to the same degree.
If a strip is over bent, increase the
setback distance on that side. If a strip
is under bent, decrease the setback
distance on that side. Again, move the
setback adjustment past the desired
set back point, and then forward to
remove the slack.
Bending Wing Alignment
Bending accuracy is dependent on
the top surface of the bending leaf
and the attached bending wing being
flush with the top face of the clamping
block when the bending leaf is in the
lowered position. If it appears that
an adjustment is necessary, contact
service team local, or manufacture.
Operation
When performing basic bending
operations it is important that the
fingers of the brake are parallel with
the edge of the clamping block.
Also make sure you have the proper
setback and clamping pressure set for
the thickness material being bent.
CAUTION
Always wear proper eye protection
with side shields, safety footwear,
and leather gloves to protect from
burrs and sharp edges.
CAUTION
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.
CAUTION
When handling large heavy sheets
make sure they are properly
supported.
Bending Sheet Metal
1. Lift and rotate the clamping handle
(cw) clockwise to raise the clamping
assembly.
2. Insert the piece part between the
clamp block and the brake fingers.
3. Align the fingers of the hold down
assembly to the scribed bend line of
the piece part and clamp in place by
pulling the clamp handle back.
NOTE
DO NOT force the clamping handle.
The holding pressure only needs to
be tight enough to hold the sheet
metal from moving when bending.
4. Pull up on the bending leaf handles
until the piece part has reached the
