7. Dressing material edges. Always chamfer and deburr all sharp edges. 8. Do not force tool. Your machine will do a better and safer job if used as intended. DO NOT use inappropriate attachments in an attempt to exceed the machines rated capacity. 9.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS This bead roller is power driven and will form sheet metal up to 16 Gauge thickness mild steel (or equivalent). Available die sets allow for the following operations to be performed: wiring, edging, ogee bead, single bead, and elbow edging. Capacity, Mild Steel 16ga.
UNPACKING AND CHECKING CONTENTS Your Baileigh machine is shipped complete. Separate all parts from the packing material and check each item carefully. Make certain all items are accounted for before discarding any packing material. WARNING: SUFFOCATION HAZARD! Immediately discard any plastic bags and packing materials to eliminate choking and suffocation hazards to children and animals.
TRANSPORTING AND LIFTING IMPORTANT: Lifting and carrying operations should be carried out by skilled workers, such as a truck operator, crane operator, etc. If a crane is used to lift the machine, attach the lifting chain carefully, making sure the machine is well balanced. Follow these guidelines when lifting with truck or trolley: •...
INSTALLATION IMPORTANT: Consider the following when looking for a suitable location to place the machine: • Overall weight of the machine. • Weight of material being processed. • Sizes of material to be processed through the machine. • Space needed for auxiliary stands, work tables, or other machinery. •...
ELECTRICAL CAUTION: HAVE ELECTRICAL UTILITIES CONNECTED TO MACHINE BY A CERTIFIED ELECTRICIAN! Check if the available power supply is the same as listed on the machine nameplate. WARNING: Make sure the grounding wire (green) is properly connected to avoid electric shock. DO NOT switch the position of the green grounding wire if any electrical plug wires are switched during hookup.

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
GENERAL BEAD ROLLING The primary purpose is to “roll form” into sheet metal, primarily “Beads”. A multitude of tools are available for just about any profile you can think of. Bead rolling is both functional and artistic. The functional portion of this operation will add strength and rigidity to sheet material. The artistic portion will add aesthetic appeal to the design.
OPERATION 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 rolling dies. Be aware of how the material moves as it is being formed. Normally the operator should stand in front of the bead roller to avoid getting hit with the material as it is being formed.

4. Set the back gauge as desired to assist in positioning the material between the dies. This also assists in repeatability. 5. The quick release (B) is very handy because it will always return to the same depth setting. 6. When the material is positioned as desired, closed the quick release handle to close the gap between the rolls to start to impress the rolls...
Offsetting the Rolls The top shaft and roll assembly has the ability to be offset from the bottom roll from -.375” (9.5mm) to +2.125” (54mm). This will allow the rolls to offset to allow for material thickness is rolls like step rolls, or offset to allow for experimentation with various end results based upon the rolls being in different positions relative to the lower roll.
Support Tray 1. When not in use, the support tray may be stored in the slot (A) located in the upper back corner of the frame. It may be installed into the storage slot from either side. 2. Loosen the lock lever and insert the mounting bar into the lower bearing block while guiding the support plate over and around rolls.
MATERIAL SELECTION CAUTION: It must be determined by the customer that materials being processed through the machine are NOT potentially hazardous to operator or personnel working nearby. When selecting materials keep these instructions in mind: • Material must be clean and dry. (without oil) •...
LUBRICATION AND MAINTENANCE WARNING: Make sure the electrical disconnect is OFF before working on the machine. Maintenance should be performed on a regular basis by qualified personnel. Always follow proper safety precautions when working on or around any machinery. Note: Proper maintenance can increase the life expectancy of your machine. •...
