Assembly
The bending tool must be secured in
an adequately sized bench vice.
Workbench must be stable enough
to not move while bending is in process.
Secure the tool’s lever with the included pin
to the center pulley.
Operating the bending tool
WARNING! Workpiece may be
sharp. Caution is advised.
Work gloves are required while
working with the tool.
Securing the workpiece for bending:
-
To lock the tool in place, spread the vice jaws
as wide as possible.
- Insert the bending tool in the vice so that the
jaws slide into the openings (3) and the
pulleys (2) with the lever (1) point upwards.
- Insert the workpiece between the pair of
pulleys (2) and the pulley with lever attached
(1). Tighten the vice so that the lever-pulley (1)
presses the workpiece against the pair of
pulleys (2).
Bending:
-
Tighten the bench vice until you feel slight
resistance of the material
–
at about 1 to 2 mm
steps.
- Turn the lever (1) clockwise until the end of
the workpiece reaches the left pulley (2),
then turn the lever (1) counter clockwise until
the opposite end of the workpiece reaches
the right pulley (2).
- Tighten the bench vice.
- Repeat the steps above until you reach the
desired bend radius.
- The bending tool is equipped with a ruler
under the left pulley for higher degree of
repeatability and bend radius tracking.
