OPERATING PROCEDURES
Your tool is capable of many different
operations. When forming angles or
round shapes, the Die Mounting Plate (4)
must be attached to the Spring Forming
Mounting Disk (32).
NOTE: The Metal Bender must be
mounted to a secure surface before
using.
Round operations (see figure #1 on
following parts):
1. Make sure the Die Mounting Plate (4) is
attached to the body.
2. Make sure the stop (2) is loose.
3. Make sure the Vise Assembly (5-9, 15)
to the rear position on the arm of the
Mounting Plate.
4. Screw the Round Die Mount Shaft (28)
into the Mounting Plate.
5. Set the Round Die (29) into the
Mounting Shaft.
6. Move the Bending Block Locking Plate
(21) by loosening the two Hex Key Blots
(20). Don’t secure the Locking Plate at
this time.
7. Set stock against the Round Die and
close the Vise, so that it clamps the work
securely against the Die.
8. Move the Bending Block in until is up
against the work and it ’s Face (16) is
even with the vise Face (8). Secure the
Bending Block by tightening the two Blots.
9. Move the Bending block to the left with
the Handle (27) until you have achieved
your desired angle bender (remember to
account for “spring-back”).
10. If you wish to do repeat bends at the
same are tighten the Stop at the point

where you finish making your bend and
tighten it.
11. When you wish to do complete 360 °
rings, make sure you clamp just the very
end of your work piece in-between the Dir.
Bend your stock all of the way around and
cut off excess.
12. To make springs, loosen the Stock (2),
and lift stock to be formed slightly as you
bend the stock around the Die. When
starting and finishing the spring, make a
complete 360°ring as started in #11.
Angle Operations
(see figure #1 above):
1. Make sure the Die Mounting Plate (4) is
attached to the body.
2. Make sure the stop (2) is loose.
3. Make the Vise Assembly (5-9, 15) to
the forward position on the arm of the
Mounting plate.
4. Plate the Angle Die’s (13) Spring Pin
(19) into the Mounting Plate ’s small
unthreaded hole.
5. Attach the Angle Die by screwing the
Hex Key Blot (18) into the small threaded
hole of the Mounting Plate.
6. Move the Bending Block Assembly
(16.17.22-24) back all of the way. You
may have to release the Bending Block
Plate (21) by loosening the two Hex Key
Blots (20). Don’ t secure the Locking Plate
at this time.
7. Set stock against the Angle Die and
close the Vise so that it clamps the work
securely against the Die.
8. Move the Bending Block until it is up
against the work and its Face (16) is even
securely the Vise Face (8).
9. Move the Bending Block to the left with
handle (27) until you have achieved your
desired angle bend (remember to account
for “spring-back”).
10. To make repeat bends at 90°, use the
Angle Gauge Assembly (10-12). Screw
the Gauge Shaft (10) into the Angle Die.
Slide the Gauge Stop (11) onto the Shaft
to the desired position (depending upon
the length of your work). This will“stop”
your bend at the proper location.
11. If you wish to do repeat bends at the
same angle (other than 90°), use the stop
( 2).
Spiral Operation:
1. Remove the Die Mounting Plate (4) by
removing the two Hex Key Blots (14).
Loosen the Stop (2).
2. Retreat the Bending Block. Assembly
(16, 17, 22-24) all of the way. Remove the

Face Plate (16) by unscrewing the
associated Hex Key Bolt (17). This will
reveal the Bending Block Wheel (22).
3. Attach the Spring Forming Mounting
Disc (32) with the two Hex Key Blots (in
positions 1).
4. Place the spring pin (25) of the Spring
Forming Die ”A”(31) into hole 3 and
attach with the long Hex Key Bolt (26) (in
position 2). Or Steps 5&7, see figure #3.
5. Insert the stock to be bent into the hole
of Die “A”.
6. Move the Bending Block Assembly
forward until it contracts the stock and
then tighten it in position.
7. Bend the stock until the portion is
forming it about at the Pin (marked with a
“P”in the figure).
8. Now put the Spring Pins (25) of Spring
Forming Die “B”(30) into holes 4&5.
9. Finish your bender by wrapping
completely around the Forming Die.
