5. Enter a new degree of bend using (+) (PLUS) or (-) (MINUS) keys to enter the desired angle. You may also use pre-set
degree buttons to enter degree of bend.
6. Depress (ENTER) button once to store the bend angle.
7. The display will prompt you to enter another bend angle within the same program. If you desire additional bends within the
same program, you may input them in the same manner. If no additional bends are required depress (ENTER).
8. The display will now indicate the program number you edited. (Example P.1)
9. Depress (ENTER) button again and the display returns to the normal operating screen.

4. Press the (*) button for 3 seconds once you have selected the desired program number. Display will read “Angle 000 Bend 1.”
5. Press the (+) (PLUS) or (-) (MINUS) keys to enter the desired bend angle.
6. Press (ENTER) when nished entering the rst bend within the program.
The machine display will prompt to enter another angle within the same program. If you desire additional bends within that “GRP”
or program, you may input them in the same manner as mentioned above.
7. If no additional bends are required, press (ENTER)
The display will momentarily read “END OF DATA ENTRY”
The display will now show “GRP RPM” or similar

Setting the springback and nishing the bend
1. Load material into former and move counterbending die vise assembly forward until die contacts material.
Note: counter bending die axis is equipped with an encoder. This axis must be set to zero before the
machine will operate. Depress (ENTER) button once to zero this axis. (Note: Always place material
with the weld-seam up to neutralize the seam. Also, the counterbending die needs to be lubricated
using Ercolina® spray grease Part number PAR 811 prior to bending.)
2. Material springback must to be set at this time. Depress (BEND) button on touch-pad or use the (BEND)
pedal until material begins to deect, refer to diagram. Release the (BEND) button.
3. View LCD display and record angle. The number of degrees it took to make the material deect is
shown on the display. This value is the material springback. Depress (ENTER) button once and the
program automatically compensates for the springback value.
4. Tighten large socket set screw on the side of the vise assembly until it contacts the back of the sup-
port bracket. The springback value has been set for the rst bend within the sequence only. Springback
value must be programmed for each bend within the program.
5. Depress (BEND) button or (BEND) pedal and nish bending process. The machine will automatically stop at programmed
bend angle.
6. Depress (RETURN) button or (RETURN) pedal to return former and material to the starting position.
