Page 18: Bending Instructions And Terminology
More metal fabrication for your money BENDING INSTRUCTIONS AND TERMINOLOGY WARNING: WEAR APPROVED EYE PROTECTION WHEN OPERATING THE MP9500 TUBING BENDER. OBSERVE THE WARNINGS DISPLAYED AND KEEP HANDS AND CLOTHING CLEAR OF ALL MOVING PARTS. The movement of the foot switch determines the direction of travel. Depressing one pedal down causes the cylinder rod to extend, moving the other foot pedal causes the cylinder rod to retract. - Page 19 – Refer to Figures 9, 10 The MP9500 Bender is equipped with an adjustable 'feed cage.' The purpose of the feed cage is to support the tubing as it is drawn through the bender head to ensure that the degree of bend remains accurate and consistent. Additionally, the feed cage absorbs the downward pressure of the tubing created by the bending process.
- Page 20 Bender MP9500 More metal fabrication for your money BENDING 2" PIPE – Refer to Figure 14 5/8 5/8 The 2” pipe die does not use the “Feed Cage” to support the tube. Instead, a " steel support plate laid directly on bottom plate (#9) supports the pipe.
