Radius Master Owners Manual MACHINE OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE The model 911 Radius Master is a footswitch operated, air over oil, ready standing, corner radius machine. Although the standard choice of radii meet most requirements, optional die sets are available. The Radius Master is designed to be functional, simple, safe, and easy to maintain.
Radius Master Owners Manual SYSTEM FUNCTION Initially the die springs hold the die shoes open. When shop air is hooked to the machine it flows through the air valve and into the return side of the cylinder. This force helps return the die shoe to the ready (open) position at the conclusion of the machine cycle.
Radius Master Owners Manual SYSTEM OPERATION SETUP: Place the Radius Master in a well lit area that is free of debris and traffic hazards. 1. Uncrate the machine. 2. Plug the power cord into a standard 115 VAC outlet. 3. Connect the air supply to the inlet port on the right side of the machine. NOTE This machine requires 80-100 PSI, filtered, lubricated air.
Radius Master Owners Manual MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE: The Radius Master is designed to provide years of service with minimal maintenance. There are only two routine maintenance procedures required to ensure dependable performance. 1. Drain the air filter monthly. 2. Check and fill the hydraulic fluid semiannually with Mobil DTE 25. FILL PROCEDURE: A loss of power or erratic action of the upper head may indicate low hydraulic fluid.
