4.1
The nut on the oil filler located on the top of the pump body doubles as
a vent and needs to be opened one turn before using the unit. The nut
should be done up tightly if the unit is moved or stored away for a long
period, to prevent hydraulic oil spillage. See fig.3.
4.2
Before using the pipe bender purge any air from the hydraulic system
by opening the relief valve situated on the side of the unit anticlockwise
and pumping the handle several times. Close release valve.
4.3
Hinge up the top plate. Select the required die (see fig.4) and place it
onto the end of the ram piston. See fig.5.
4.4
Position the rollers according to the triangular label in the centre of the
top plate. See fig.2-B.
4.5
Rotate the rollers so that the most appropriate of the three contours
available will be against the pipe.
Note! Consider packing the pipe or tube with dried sand or similar
medium before bending as this may help to alleviate deformation of the
pipe or tube. Pack the sand tight and cap the ends.

4.6
Introduce the pipe between the die and the rollers, swing down the upper
plate ensuring that it locates correctly onto the roller shafts and position the
pipe so that the centre of the required bend is in the centre of the die.
4.7
Close the release valve by turning the knob clockwise. Insert the pump
handle into the socket above the larger of the two pumping pistons
(see fig.3) and pump to close the gap between the die and pipe. Before
applying bending pressure do a final check on the positioning of the
pipe. Now insert the handle into the socket above the smaller of the
pumping pistons and pump until the required degree of bend is achieved.
4.8
Open the release valve and the piston will retract under spring tension.
Raise the upper plate and remove or reposition the pipe as required.
4.9
After use, store the pipe bender with the ram fully retracted and the
pumping pistons in the down position.
