OPERATION
Note: The Pipe Bender is designed to bend water pipe and heavy gauge galvanized pipe
used in commercial applications. When bending conduit or thin walled pipe, you may
experience problems with kinks or creases. To help limit the problem, fill the pipe with
sand and cap both ends, before bending.
Set Up.
1. Place the Pipe Bender on a solid, flat, level surface. Pipe Bender must always be
clamped or bolted down to a workbench.
2. Select the Bending Die that matches the size of pipe you want to bend. Each Die is
stamped with the size.
3. Place the Bending Die onto the 12,000kg Ram.
3 4
4. Depending on the size of the pipe you wish to bend, the Rollers might need adjustment
so that the top of the pipe to be bent rests against the bottom of the rollers.
A. Remove both Hitch Pins. Set Aside.
B. Individually, remove a Roller Shaft and move the Rollers to the desired hole in the
Frame. Repeat on other side.
C. One at a time, fully slide the Roller Shaft through the holes in the Frame and the Rollers.
Repeat on other side.
D. Insert both of the Hitch Pins through the Roller Shafts.
5. Slide the pipe you want to bend, through the Pipe Bender on top of the Bending Die.
Make sure the top of the pipe rests against the bottom of the Rollers.
6. Using the slotted end of the Handle, tighten (clockwise) the Ram Relief Valve
7. Insert the Handle into the 12,000kg Ram. Crank it up and down to raise the Ram and
bend the pipe.
8. After bending pipe to desired angle, remove the Handle from the Ram and loosen the
Relief Valve (counterclockwise). The ram will lower. The pipe will release from the Pipe
Bender. Carefully remove the pipe.
HOW TO BLEED RAM/HOW TO FILL RAM WITH HYDRAULIC OIL
IMPORTANT! Before first use, check for proper hydraulic oil level in the Ram. Then
thoroughly test the Ram for proper operation prior to its actual use. If the Ram does not
work properly, bleed excess air from its hydraulic system as follows:
1. Open the Ram Relief Valve.
2. Remove the Oil Filler Plug and fill the Ram with hydraulic fluid to full level.
3. Apply pressure to the Saddle, and pump the Handle quickly several times.
4. Check the Oil Fill Hole and, if necessary, top off the Oil Fill Hole with hydraulic oil.
5. Replace the Oil Fill Plug and close the Ram Relief Valve.
6. Test the Ram several times for proper operation before putting into use. If, after
bleeding, the Ram still does not appear to be working properly, do not use the Ram until
it has been repaired by a qualified service technician.
