Wiper Die Set-up
1. To set up the wiper die the machine needs to be at 0°.
2. Insert a piece of tubing matching the die size.
3. Activate the clamp die; the hook plates should engage and the material should be clamped
firmly.
4. Select the proper wiper die and slide it along the tube toward the die until snug between
material and bend die.
5. Fasten the correct mounting brackets and align holes and gradually snug up all bolts.
6. On stainless steel, the wiper die is set to 0° Rake, on steel 2-5° is a good place to start. (For
stainless steel the wiper die should be set parallel with the pressure die. For steel it should
be approximately 92° to 95° degrees off of the edge of the wiper die.)
7. More on wiper dies in the trouble shooting section.
