kickstand to prevent the unit from rolling.
3. Pivot the bending head to the desired position.
4. Connect the pendant to the bending head.
5. Plug the power cord into a 120 VAC, 20 A GFCI-
protected receptacle. For best performance, use a
dedicated circuit for this unit and do not use exten-
sion cords.
6. Turn on the power switch.
Transporting the Bender
Make sure that all components used to lift the bender
are properly rated for the 231 kg (510 lb) weight. Use a
ramp to load and unload the bender from a truck or other
vehicle that is not equipped with a lift gate.
To roll the bender:
1. Raise the jackscrews so that they clear the job site
terrain.
2. Pivot the bending head to the horizontal position
with the 1-1/2" to 2" shoe facing up.
3. Use the transport handle to
push and steer the bender.
To lift the bender:
1. Pivot the bending head to the
horizontal position with the
1-1/2" to 2" shoe facing up.
2. Rotate the lifting
eyes so that they
are accessible.
3. Loop the sling (or
attach the hooks)
to the lifting eyes.
Make sure that
each side of the
sling or chain is
1 m (3') long to
prevent it from
rubbing against
the bender.

sling or chain to the
lifting device.

The bender is equipped with four jackscrews that can be
raised or lowered using the 5/16" T-handle Allen wrench
provided with the bender.
Retract the jackscrews when transporting the bender.

rolling when bending. If desired, level the unit with all

from moving.

it contacts the ground.

the kickstand.
To take the bender off the kickstand:
1. Apply foot pressure to the lever below the crossbar.
2. Pull the bender toward you until it rolls off the
