Assembling Components

1. Select and install proper tail rollers. To bend 1 1/2 in. (38 mm) OD 

tubing, use the fixed tail roller in the up position. For 2 in. (50 mm) OD 
tubing, use the fixed tail roller in the down position. (See Figure 1.)

    To bend 1 in. (25 mm) OD tubing, use the 1 in. (25 mm) removable tail 

roller, securing pin in lower pin hole (up position). For 1 1/4 in. (32 
mm) OD tubing, use the 1 1/4 in. (32 mm) removable tail roller, securing 
pin in upper pin hole. Align roller with the inside of the unit. (See Figure 
2.)

 2. Select proper roller tower; the size is indicated on roller tower. To install, 

lift and hold the handle lock. Insert the roller tower into proper bridge 
opening so that the size indicator faces you. Allow roller tower to lean 
against tail roller. (See Figure 3.)

 3. Select proper tube clamp; the size is indicated on clamp face. Locate 

the tube size on the bend shoe, and attach the tube clamp with pin, 
making sure the size identification faces out. (See Figure 4.)

EMERGENCY STOP button is not engaged.
