SETTING UP THE
BEND ANGLE
STOP
The bend angle stop can be adjusted for multiple or precision bends.Adjust the
angle stop as follows:
1.
Loosen the angle stop collar set screw and move the angle stop collar out
toward the end of the angle stop rod. (See Figure 4.)
2.
Have an assistant move the apron to the desired position and hold it while
you adjust the collar. Be sure to take spring-back into account when setting
the angle.
3.
Move the angle stop collar against the angle stop stud and tighten the angle
stop collar set screw to retain it in that position.
SETTING UP THE
OPTIONAL REAR
MATERIAL
STOPS
For repeat operations involving deeper bends, it may be useful to use the optional
rear material stops.
Figure 6. Installing and Adjusting the Optional Rear Material Stops.
Install and adjust the rear material stops as follows:
1.
At each end of the machine, insert a threaded stop rod. Secure the stop rod
using the stop rod lock nuts (see Figure 6).
2.
Adjust a stop nut on each stop rod to the desired position. Be sure that both
stop nuts are the same distance from the front of the machine. (Anglular
bends not perpendicular to the material edges can be made by offsetting
one stop nut from the other. This will reduce the overall width which can
be bent.) (See Figure 6.)
3.
Lock each stop nut in place using a stop lock nut (see Figure 6).
