ntroduction
Thank you for purchasing this quality product. To minimize the risk of injury we urge that our cli-
ents take some basic safety precautions when using this device. Please read the operation in-
structions carefully and make sure you have understood its content.
Keep these operation instructions safe.
Safety instructions
Check the delivery for completeness and intactness. Should pieces be missing or defective,
the tool must not be used.
lways wear suitable protective equipment (protective gloves, work shoes, safety goggles,
etc.). Normal spectacles are not protective goggles.
Wear appropriate clothes. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery, tie long hair together. Oth -
erwise they could get caught up in the rotating parts, which leads to injuries.
Wear non-slip shoes. Make sure to have a secure stance and always keep your balance.
Keep your work area clean and provide sufficient lighting. Untidy or badly lit work areas in -
crease the risk of accidents.
Keep children and by-standers away from your work area.
Provide padlocks to make your workshop childproof.
Maintain tool with care. Make sure that tools stay sharp and tidy to obtain the best and the
safest performance. Obey the instructions for lubricating the tools and replacing the accessor-
ies.
Make sure that the handles are and stay dry, tidy, oil-free and lubricant-free.
ppropriately secure workpieces while working on them and make sure that you are able to
control them during the entire process. Use clamps or a vice to secure a workpiece.
Keep all parts of your body away from rotating parts. Risk of injuries!
Do not apply force on tools. It will do a better and safer work if used within the performance
range that it is intended for.
Use the right tool for your work. Do not use any tool or accessory for a work that it has not
been designed for.
Only use accessories recommended. Using inappropriate accessories increases the risk of in-
juries.
Before each use, check the tool for damages. The protection devices and the accessories
should be checked, too, to know if they work correctly and can be used as intended. Check
the alignment of movable parts, find broken parts, check the assembly and all conditions that
could impair the use. Protection devices or parts damaged should be repaired correctly or re-
placed.
Do not use the tool if under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medicine, that alter your con-
sciousness.
Never stand on tool. Should the tool tilt over, serious injuries or damages might follow.

Operation
General
Your tool is capable of many different types of bending operations. Materials that can be bent
include steel, iron, brass, wrought iron, and aluminium.
To determine how to properly set up the tool, you must first determine what type of bend you
want to perform. Round shapes, angles, or spiral operations are each described in the follow-
ing sections. The numbers in brackets refer to the reference number in the exploded view of
the parts.
Please note the “spring-back properties” of certain materials when performing the bending op-
erations. This assumes that you overbend the material to a certain extent to achieve the de -
sired degree of bending. Different materials have different degrees of spring-back. Perform a
test bend to determine how much “spring-back” you need to compensate for.
Note! The folding machine must be fixed on a safe surface before being used.
Round forms
1. Make sure that the mounting plate for dies (4) is attached to the device. See Fig.J1 to know the
positions required for folding round forms.
2. Make sure that the stop (2) is loose.
3. Move the vice unit (5–9, 15) on the mounting plate holder backwards.
4. Screw the dies holder mounting shaft (28) on the mounting plate.
5. Set the round die (29) on the mounting shaft.
6. Move the folding block unit (16, 17, 22–24) to the very end. You might have to loosen the fold-
ing block locking plate (21) by loosening the hexagon screws (20). Do not secure the locking
plate at this moment.
7. Set the shaft against the round die and close the vice so that it clamps the workpiece against
the die.
8. Move the folding until it touches the workpiece and until its front plate (16) is flush with the vice
surface (8). Secure the folding block by tightening the two screws.
9. Move the folding block to the left using the handle (27) until reaching the desired folding angle.
Consider the “spring-back” effect.
10. Should you wish to repeat foldings at the same angle, firmly tighten the stop at the spot where
you have finished the folding operation.
11. Should you wish to form an entire 360° ring, make sure to clamp the end of your workpiece
between the vice and the die. Entirely fold your workpiece around and cut off the overspill.
12. In order to form springs, loosen the stop (2) and slightly lift the shaft to be formed while folding
the shaft around the die. When beginning and finishing the spring, form an entire 360° ring as
described in step 11.

Bending
1. Make sure that the mounting plate for dies (4) is attached to the body. See Figure 1 to know
the positions of the holes required for bending.
2. Make sure that the stop (2) is closed.
3. Move the vice unit (5–9, 15) to the first position on the mounting plate arm.
4. Insert the spring pin (19) of the die (13) in the little hole without thread of the mounting plate.
5. ttach the die by screwing the hexagon screw (18) into the little threaded hole of the mounting
plate.
6. Move the folding block unit (16, 17, 22–24) all the way back. You might have to loosen the
folding block locking plate (21) by loosening the two hexagon screws (20). Do not secure the
locking plate at this moment.
7. Set the shaft against the die and close de vice so that it clamps the workpiece against the die.
8. Move the folding block until it touches the workpiece and until its front plat (16) is flush with the
vice surface (8). Secure the folding block by tightening the two screws.
9. Move the folding block to the left using the handle (27) until reaching the desired folding angle.
Consider the “spring-back” effect.
10. To repeat 90° angle foldings, use the angle metre unit (10–12). Screw the shaft (11) in the die.
Slide the stop (10) on the shaft to the desired position (depending on the length of your work-
piece). Thus the folding is “stopped” at the right position.
11. Should you wish to repeat foldings at the same angle (apart from 90° angles), use the stop (2).
Fold coils
1. Remove the mounting plate for dies (4) by removing the two hexagon screws. Loosen the
stopJ(2).
2. Pull the folding block unit (16, 17, 22–24) all the way back. Remove the front plate of the fold-
ing block (16) by unscrewing the corresponding hexagon screw (17). Thus the swivel jointJ(22)
of the folding blocks is exposed.
For steps 3, 4 and 8 see Figure 2
3. ttach the spring-forming mounting die (32) with two hexagon screws (in position 1).
4. Set the spring pin (25) of the spring-forming die “ ” (31) in hole 3 and attach the long hexagon
screw (26) in position 2.
For steps 5, 7 and 8 see Figure 3
5. Set the material to be folded into the hole of die “ ” (31).

6. Move the folding block unit forward until it touches the workpiece, and pull it into place.
7. Fold the workpiece until the piece to be formed has roughly reached the pin (see “P” on fig-
ure).
8. Now set the spring pin (25) of the spring-forming die “B” (30) into the holes 4 and 5.
9. Finish folding by completely lagging the dies.
