4.
At each end of the machine, tighten upper toggle pin lock nut against
the toggle anchor (see Figure 3).
5.
At each end of the machine, pull the clamping lever forward against the
stop. Each end should require equal effort. Adjust one end, if necessary,
according to the general procedure above.
Under normal circumstances, clearance between the apron edge and the upper
beam radius bar should be approximately (2) times the material thickness for 16
ga. mild steel. For lighter gauge material, less clearance is required. One and a half
(1-1/2) times material thickness is usually sufficient. Soft material, such as
aluminum, may be formed with a clearance equal to the material thickness.

Make the adjustment as follows:
1.
With the upper beam lowered to the normal operating position, but not
clamped tightly against the bed, loosen the thickness adjustment clamping
screws located on both ends of the brake (see Figure 4).
2.
Raise the apron to the 90-degree position.
