Stop
Step 1)
Test and decide the amount and distance of Handle rotation to make the desired
bend.
Step 2)
Place the Stop (#4) into the next hole (clockwise) after your rotation is complete.
Adjustable Stop Loop
Use the Adjustable Stop Loop (#26) for stops where a finer adjustment is needed. The Adjustable Stop Loop
allows for more precise stops as it can be adjusted whereas the Stop (#4) is simply placed into a hole on the
Ring.
Step 1)
Test and decide the amount and distance of Handle rotation to make the desired
bend.
Step 2)
Place the Adjustable Stop Loop (#26) directly at the point where the rotation of the Handle is
to end. Insert Mounting Bolt (#25) through 3/8" Washer (#24) to hold the Adjustable Stop Loop
in place. Tighten on Washer (#24) and Nut (#27).
Step 3)
Try a test bend and adjust the Adjustable Stop Loop (#26) as necessary to obtain a precise
bend.
Now that the basic operating instructions have been described; it is time to practice using the Compact Bender.
We are going to show you how to make several useful items such as handles and anchor bolts. We will also
show you how to make letters of the alphabet for use in making decorative signs. Once you practice on the
Compact Bender and learn its capabilities, it should be easy to come up with additional uses for the Compact
Bender based on your interests and work requirements..
When unpacking your Compact Bender check to make sure the following parts are included. If any parts are
