Assembly Setting up the ring bending machine WARNING! Crushing! The machine may tilt during deployment and cause serious injury. - The machine must be set up by at least 2 people together. Wear safety gloves! Wear safety shoes! Wear protective clothing! Step 1: Check the ground with a spirit level for horizontal alignment, if neces- sary, compensate for slight unevenness.
Commissioning The ring bending machine PRM 35 F can be set up horizontally or vertically for the machining of workpieces (Fig. 12). Fig. 12: Ring bending machine PRM 35 F - horizontal and vertical use To change the machine to the horizontal working position, proceed as follows: Step 1: Loop a belt or a steel cable with a load capacity of approx.

Commissioning WARNING! Danger to life! There is danger to life if these rules are not followed. - Never carry out any work on the machine under the influ- ence of alcohol, drugs or medication and / or in case of fati- gue or concentration-impairing illnesses.
Operation 8.1 Connect the ring bending machine to the mains DANGER! Danger to life due to electric current! There is an immediate danger of electrocution on contact with live components. - The machine may only be connected by qualified electricians. - Work on the electrical system should only be carried out by qualified electricians.
Operation NOTE! Please observe the following before operating the machine. - The mains voltage must correspond to the voltage specifi- cations on the rating plate. - The main switch must be set to "0". - The safety devices as well as the protective covers must be functional.
Operation ATTENTION! Please make sure that the emergency switch is reset to its original position after use. If the emergency switch remains activated, the machine will not start. Step 4: Insert material, move the rollers with the pedals and carry out the ben- ding work.
Operation NOTE! All spacers must always be applied to the shaft to ensure correct seating of the rollers. Finally, push the unneeded spacers onto the shaft and make sure that the rollers are tight after tightening the nuts. 9.3 Adjust side guide rollers With the aid of the lateral guide rollers, the bending of the workpiece can be corrected again.

Operation NOTE! The first and last 200 mm - 300 mm of the profile to be bent do not reach the desired rounding value. For this reason, the blank blank must be made longer and the profile cut again after bending. Functionality Step 1: Select suitable bending rollers for the material to be machined and mount correctly.
Page 26
Operation Check the radius. If the desired radius has not yet been reached, adjust it by turning the upper roller up and down. Often several operations are necessary. It must be done carefully so as not to exceed the desired level. Once the desi- red radius has been reached, the entire profile can be bent.
