How to Bend
Step 1
Select the size of shoe that corresponds to the size of
conduit. Check the cam location. If the cam is extended,
retract the cam by turning the 7/8" headcam with a
wrench.
Note: Shoes smaller than 1-1/2" do not have a cam;
3" and larger shoes have two cams.
Cam extended (for ejecting conduit)
Cam retracted (for bending conduit)
Step 3
Rotate the conduit support so that the appropriate
groove is toward the conduit.
Note: For bending more than 75° in 1" PVC-coated
conduit, rotate the conduit support so that the large
groove faces the conduit.
Step 2
Attach the shoe support to the ram with the ram pin.
Note: When using the 2" or smaller shoe, use the small
shoe support. When using 2-1/2" or larger shoe, use the
large shoe support.
Attach the shoe to the shoe support with the shoe pin.
Step 4
Position both conduit supports in line with the cor-
responding holes in the bender frame. Insert the pipe
support pin through the upper frame plate, through the
conduit support, and through the lower frame plate.
Lock the pipe support pins in place with pin locks.
