Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding or moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a DIAMOND service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
INTERIOR ANGLE Since the piston stroke is limited, interior straightening / bending angle will vary according to rebar diameter and operating mode. Refer to the table below: (Accept any 620 N/mm² tensile strength rebars up to 32mm diameter.) Max. tensile strength 620 N/mm² Rebar Max.
WARM UP 3. Make sure the unit is plugged into the proper outlet 100V, 115V or 230V 50/60Hz, (Please check the voltage of your DBR-32HD.) 4. In cold weather, warm up the tool for 30-60 seconds so that the hydraulic oil reaches the proper viscosity.
To enable the unit to be used in confined spaces, there are two operating modes: PUSH and PULL. The mode is selected by moving the mode control valve lever to the appropriate position. PUSH for piston advances and PULL for piston retracts. In either mode, simply press the switch to move the piston.
The tool can rotate the housing unit according to the working condition. Please change the direction of the bending hook (photo) to it when If turned Housing unit. 8. Switch “OFF”. Disconnect tool from outlet when not in use and before cleaning, adjusting or servicing.
OIL-LEVEL CHECK (ADD OIL) As the tool is hydraulically operated, the oil-level must be checked at frequent intervals, preferably once a year. Failure to maintain the oil at the proper level results in a drop in pressure and loss of power. CAUTION: Hydraulic oil is highly flammable.
CARE: Tool cannot function properly if oil contains air bubbles or too much oil. 12. Replace the air bag cover, oil plug and tighten it. 13. The operation is now complete. NOTE: Dispose of hydraulic oil in accordance with local regulations. Do not pour into the sea, a river, a lake or drains.
