Setting up the machine
Step 1: Check the surface for horizontal alignment, if
necessary, compensate for slight unevenness.
Step 2: Fix the round bending machine with ground an-
chors to the ground and align horizontally with a
spirit level.
7.2 Danger areas
The bending machine is provided with the necessary
protective equipment to prevent injuries that may be
caused by the worm gear or other gears. Another area
of danger that must be carefully observed during the
machining process is the range of rotation of the rollers.
7.3 Lubrication of the bearing
Before using the machine for the first time, check and lu-
bricate the bearings and gears, see chapter „Cleaning
and maintenance“.
7.4 Electrical connection
It is important to make sure that,
- the power connection has the same characteris-
tics (voltage, mains frequency, phase angle) as
the motor.
- the mains voltage of 400 V is used,
- For the purpose of a safe working operation the
earthing is checked.
Step 1: Connect the power cord to the mains.
Step 2: Insert the pedal plug on the machine.
Step 3: Check that the direction of rotation of the rollers
and the motor corresponds to the indicated di-
rection of the arrow. In some cases, a reverse
connection may cause the motor to burn out. It
must also be checked whether the direction of
rotation of the roller is carried out in accordance
with the operation of the respective buttons on
the control panel or according to the operation of
the respective pedal:
right pedal: Rotation direction right;
left pedal: Rotation direction left.
Step 4: If the direction of rotation is reversed, the cables
must be reconnected by a qualified electrician.
NOTE!
- The Bending Machine is already pre-assembled in
the delivery condition.
NOTE!
After setting up, remove the protective agent from
the bare metal parts, which have been applied to
protect against rusting.
- Use usual solvents.
- No water, no nitrolic solvents or similar use!
NOTE!
The moving parts must be free from dirt and dust.
- If necessary, lubricate the moving parts as listed in
the Care and Maintenance section.
DANGER!
Danger to life due to electric current!
There is an immediate danger of electrocution on
contact with live components.
- The bending machine may only be connected by
electricians.
- Work on the electrical system should only be carried out by
qualified electricians.
ATTENTION!
After connecting the plug, check the direction of
rotation of the motor. If this is wrong, two phases
must be exchanged.
