Selecting Lower Wheels - Baileigh Industrial EW-21 Operator's Manual

Crisscrossing Tracks
Crisscrossing tracks can help produce smoother
curves in your workpiece using the zigzag or
staggered stop pattern.
After running tracks along one length of the workpiece,
turn the metal sheet 90° and run tracks along the
opposite length so the workpiece is equally covered by
both sets of tracks.

Selecting Lower Wheels

Choose a lower wheel that will produce the contour you desire.
Flat lower wheels are good for adding gentle curves to large metal panels; these wheels have
wide flat surfaces profiles
Domed lower wheels create tighter curves. The flat areas range from 1/8" to 3/4" (3.175 to
19.05mm). The wider the flat area, the wider the track produced on the workpiece.
Roll a workpiece between a grooved lower wheel and a ridged upper wheel to emboss metal.
The step roller can be used with the flat upper wheel to add a small crease in a metal panel.
