footwear, and leather gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges.
CAUTION:
to the front of the machine to avoid getting hit with the material during the bending
process. When handling large heavy materials make sure they are properly supported.
Dry Running Machine
Before actually bending, several "dry runs" should be performed. This will remove any trapped
air from the cylinders and hoses. Also, this will familiarize you with the controls and functions of
the machine. To do this, set a bend angle and then activate the hydraulics to extend and retract
the cylinders to simulate a bend.
Setting Bend Angle
1. Reverse machine until both cylinders are fully retracted.
2. Set the digital controller to "0" by pressing the "F1/RST (reset)
button. The lower green number is preset position and the top
red number is the machine position.
3. In order for the machine to function the digital control needs to
have a stop point programmed for more than 5 degrees.
4. Press the "Right/Down" arrow key to activate the lower preset
degree field. Pressing the "Right/Down" arrow key will highlight
each digit field. The digit field will slowly blink when highlighted.
Machine will only bend to 200 degrees. The cylinders will
deadhead when the reach full extension.
5. When the digit is highlighted, press the "UP" arrow key to change
to the desired digit in that field.
6. When the desired bend degree is entered, press the "Circle"
button to save. The machine will now stop at this preset degree.
Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety
Keep hands and fingers clear of the dies and swing arms. Stand
