2.0 GENERAL SAFETY TERMS
Machine's Safety Accessories and Accident Prevention Terms
The machine is provided with fixed shelters for the protection of all gears. But some mobile parts,
because of their shape for the bending processing cannot be protected within a case. However, safety
is guaranteed by the machine features and by the use of "human presence" controls.
The machine is controlled by means of foot-pushed buttons present at the downside of the Mobile
Control Panel. During operation the specified safety distance must always be observed.
There is a red mushroom emergency button at the upside of the Mobile Control Panel to stop all the
machine activity by disabling the electric supply until released. In case of an extraordinary situation,
please push this button straight away.
No other persons except for the qualified and well trained operator should be allowed to use the
machine and to be present in the working area of the machine.
Any damaged or defective connections to the different energy supplies must be replaced.
All interventions concerning installation, start-up, change of equipment, use, change to the use and
the operation, regular maintenance, inspection and periodical maintenance can be performed only
after disabling the machine according to relevant chapter of this handbook.
Abnormal Conditions
In order to avoid unusual working conditions, in the following several recommendations to the operator
are listed. Also, do not forget that this machine can be used only in the conditions presented in this
operation and maintenance handbook
Before connecting the machine double-check electrical connections read the instructions carefully.
For, almost 65% of the failure reports we receive are based on either wrong electric connection or use
in contradiction to the User's Manual
Avoid the approach of persons to the operator while the machine is running.
Loading and unloading of the material should be done according to the instructions of this handbook.
During the bending process avoid holding material with the hand.
Never wear garments with Ioose parts, which may be dragged by the machine parts, long loose hair,
necklaces, rings etc.

Before preparing the machine for installation and start-up, an accurate visual control is
required in order to detect any possible damages occurred during transporting and handling
phases.
Your machine is located on a wooden grid and the
package is a waterproof plastic cover.
If one, or several parts of the machine, have been
damaged while shipping, the installation of the machine
has to be suspended.
While lifting take care of these points:
•Always lift and carry the machine from the handles.
•Use a steel rope capable of carrying 500 kg.
•Do not forget the Mobil Control Panel.
•Take precautions for handling and lifting.
•Check if the load is properly balanced by lifting it
some centimetres.
•Lift the machine, proceeding with care, without
sudden accelerations or quick changes of directions.
•Place the machine where it must be installed, lower
the machine slowly till it touches the floor.
Figure 1 shows a way of carrying the machine. You can
use a crane with hook or a forklift for handling operation.
Figure 1
Attention: Lifting and carrying operations should be carried out by skilled workers,
such as truck operator, crane operator, etc. Also, it is necessary to keep in mind that
having large safety margins will provide you efficient working conditions and enable you
to take into consideration most of the precautions.

6.0 FOUNDATION AND MAIN DIMENSIONS OF PV 35
Figure 1 shows the main dimensions of the machine.
Note: For a correct operation the machine must be placed on a flat, preferably concrete
base and even floor.
Note: Figure 2 shows the area into which anyone except for the operator is forbidden to
enter. that this area is illustrated considering the machine located horizontally. If you operate
it vertically, then the borders will be the same. That is, no matter how you located the
machine (vertical or horizontal) you should always keep the safety distance of one meter
around the machine.
Note: The manufacturer doesn’t accept any responsibility for damages due to the non-
observance of the above specifications.

7.0 OPERATING PV 35 HORIZONTAL
Before positioning the machine it is necessary to leave enough working area for the proper
bending operations such as: extraction of the cylindrical profile, feeding of the semi product,
bending of big diameters.
If you have no alternative to install the machine in a broad area but a low-height area, then
there is a solution to this problem as shown in figure 2.
To set the machine horizontally, follow these steps:
Wrap a belt capable of carrying at least 500 kg around the top roll’s
shaft (shown by in fig.1).
•Lift the machine slowly by means of a forklift or a crane with hook.
•When you are satisfied that you have lifted the machine to the
degree that only the corner shown by in figure 2 touches to the
floor, rotate the machine right slowly with the help of a person so that
the mass center of the machine tend to be at the right side of that
corner.
•After that, slowly lower the machine.
Attention:
Do not wrap the belt around the top roll adjustment screw so that it may be bent or its teeth
may be damaged.

8.0 START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Materials and Products
The machine is mainly steel and it is not designed for handling inflammable or detrimental products. It
is duty of the customer to check if the processed materials respond to these requirements. Also, it is
duty of the customer to check if the processed materials can be dangerous for the operator working
nearby.
When selecting the most appropriate operation material you should keep in mind those instructions:
•Material must be clean out of oil and dry.
•Hardness value must always be same thorough the material.
So, we recommend you to buy certificated steel.
•Parts to be bended should have smooth surface to fulfill the procession correctly and easily.
Note: The thorough cleaning of the rolls is absolutely necessary in order to avoid possible
sliding of the profile due to grease residues on the rolls.
2. Electrical Connection
Have a qualified electrician connect the machine to the electric supply. In some cases inverse
electrical connection causes the motor burn out. To avoid such an undesirable event, after having
connect the machine see that the motor turns to the direction shown by arrow when activated. Or you
can check to see if the rolls are rotating to the same direction of the pedals. That is, if the right pedal
is pushed, the rolls should rotate right and if the left pedal is pushed, the rolls should rotate left. If the
machine does not comply, then inverse the electric cables.
3. Electric Box
The PV 35s electric box includes very important controls of the machine and is also connected to the
below shown foot pedals. The keys on the electric box are shown and explained here:
1. Electric box lock
2. Main switch
3. Electric on indicator
4. Foot pedal plug-in
5. R-S-T phases plug-in
6. Electric plug-in
7. Digital connection (optional)
Attention: Electric box shelter must be removed
only when the machine is stopped, or during
maintenance or adjustment interventions.

15
Warning: It is suggested to protect the main electric line from possible overloads by means of
safety switches.
4. Foot Pedal
The foot pedal is equipped with an “emergency
button” which instantly stops all the machine activity
by disabling the electric supply until released.
5. Starting the Machine
Following steps will help you start the machine and get ready for the first bending operation. See the
sections identifying the necessary switches and buttons.
•Make sure the electrical connection is correct
•Turn on the “main switch”
•You will see electric on “indicator”
•Push “start button”
•Choose a speed from the “speed selector”
•Use the “foot pedals” to rotate the rolls
•Make bending
•Use the “emergency button” on “foot pedal” to stop the machine
•Turn off the “main switch”
6. Basic Operation Terms
The PV 35 has two rolls powered and top roll idle. The lower rolls are direct driven by a reducer motor.
Top roll can be adjusted by a screw driven system to make the bending in a wide radius range.
Therefore, bending operation is simple and smooth however requires experience for efficient working.
Following recommendations will be helpful during operation:
•It is recommended that the user have basic bending information with this kind of machines.
•Making a tight bend in one pass is not possible. So you need several passes before you can
achieve a certain radius. Tighter curves and full radii always take a lot of time.
•During operation never wear garments with loose parts, which may be dragged by the machine
parts, long loose hair, necklaces, rings etc.
•Use emergency button in case of any emergency.

9.0 OPERATION
Operating instructions
Place the material on the rolls flatly as shown in the figure 1.
Make sure that material is placed parallel to the ground and
touching all three rolls at the same time. This position is
called "zero position'.
Move the upper roll down like in figure 2 and position it to
apply enough force to bend the material. Do not apply force
more than necessary. If you apply too much force with the
help of moving the upper roll down a lot more than enough,
you may deflate the material during bending operation.
Push the foot pedal to rotate the rolls to which direction you
want (look at figure 3). To get desired diameter value make
more than one pass by gradually lowering the upper roll
after each pass. After a pass if the diameter value is bigger
than expected, move the upper roll down to apply more
force. If the case is vice versa, than move the upper roll to
upside by making use of milimetric ruler.
It is likely that the material will intend to bend right or left
because of the existence of bending forces. To prevent this,
you must adjust the guide rolls as shown in the figures 4 and
5.
As the guides are adjustable on top and bottom, you can
arrange them to the opposite side of the material's
directional inclination.
Note: To get a circular profile, side guide joints
must be parallel to the machine surface.
Otherwise, you just get spiral profiles.
Figure 6 shows bending operations for different
kind of sections with special rolls.
In case of bending long materials, material
feeder is advised to use in order to keep
workpiece parallel to the base ground (see
figure 7). This will make easier to bend such
workpieces.

Figure 6
Figure 7

18
Figure 8 shows the use of "Leg-In Bending Guide Rolls” These guide rolls are special accessory for
bending leg-in (angle) material and are available for extra cost. They are adjustable for any size of
material and easy to use, Special rolls are recommended for any batch jobs of leg-in or leg-out
material. Some of the angle materials can be bent with standard rolls.
Operational hints
•Always clean the rolls and the material of dust, dirt and grease for bending
•If you are bending a pipe do not rotate the pipe while bending
•We advise you to fill the profiles or pipes with sand or any similar material if they have a wall thick-
ness of less than 2 mm
•Do not overload the machine and use special rolls for profiles as well as pipes
•Operate safely keeping in mind the third party people around the machine
•Leave enough workspace around the machine
•The machine can also work horizontally for extremely large diameters
•The machine has double-speed motor.

10.0 MAINTENANCE
A suitable maintenance is also compulsory to get a maximum
machine life and optimal working conditions for machine’s
efficiency.
A regular maintenance interventions should be performed by a
well-trained safety responsible and if possible by a mechanical
engineer.
Attention: Regular and scheduled maintenance
interventions cannot be performed by running
machine. The main switch must be turned off.
Besides, a warning signal telling, “DO NOT AC-
TIVATE - MACHINE IN MAINTENANCE” must be
clearly visible on the machine.
Attention: Any processing system, which may
danger the machine safety, must be avoided.
As the machine does not include any kind of hydraulic system, it is simple to lubricate its functional
parts as shown in the below.
•Firstly, turn off the machine if it is active by moving the main switch “0” on the electric box.
•Remove the back lid by dismantling its screws.
•Grease the power joints inside the machine with the help of an oilfeeder ().
•Also grease the upper roll adjustment shaft (shown by X points in figure 1)().
•Lubricate the reduction gearbox with OIL SAE 30 (illustrated by point Yin figure 1).
•After the lubrication, assemble again the back lid and the protections.
•Restart the machine according to the start procedure, and check if there are any anomalies due
to faults or unintentional tampering during maintenance.
Attention: For replacement of oil, use a funnel with a filter in order to avoid that impurities
enter into the gearbox or among the other movable parts and damage the good functioning
of the machine.
Internal cleaning of the electric box is also needed and must be done like in the following:
•Turn off the machine moving the main switch on the electric box “0”.
•Disconnect the mains supply from the electric board.
•Open the electric box lock.
•Do not use liquid detergents while cleaning the electric box inside.
•Check the connections to the terminals of the different devices.
•Tighten any loose connections.
•Close the door of the electric box and check if it is closed perfectly enough.
•Connect the electric board to the mains.
Restart the machine according to the start procedure, and check if there are any anomalies because
of faults or unintentional tampering during maintenance
(

): Use commercial grease for lubrication and make this operation once per month.
(

): Use “MOBIL VACTRA OIL No: 2” or equivalent and lubricate this shaft once per week.

11.0 LUBRICATION
General Maintenance
The machine needs to be lubricating periodically for efficient working and longer to be lubricated
periodically for efficient working and a longer life. You can see the points of lubrication list below and a
lubrication chart for periods of lubricated
Lubricate chart
IMPORTANT
The rolls of the machine must NEVER be greased or lubricated. Because then the rolls will slip the
material and will not bend. Always keep the rolls clean and free from grease or any lubricant. AIso
make sure that the material is free from grease and dirt.
These points must be greased periodically at least once a month or more if daily usage exceeds 8
hours a day. Note that some of these points are actually inside the machine cover and the front cover
must be removed in order to reach them. Any standard commercial grease can be used for
lubrication.
