Component/Base Operations
Tilting Head-Frame Operation
The head-frame of your Edwards 10 Ton Tube/Pipe Bender is mounted
with a yoke and pin to a sleeve and stop mechanism in the bender stand.
This mounting conguration allows for the bender head-frame to be op-
erated in either a horizontal or vertical orientation. Positive stops at 0
and 90 degrees provide for a exible and stable operation of the bender
when working with complex bending shapes or long setups.
Rotate the tilting head frame with caution. To rotate the head-frame,
release the hand screw on the top side of the rotational sleeve, rotate the
head-frame slowly utilizing both hands as a cradle at the top (die end) of
the head frame to the desired 0 or 90 degree location. Secure the hand
screw in the bender nal working position
Base Operation
The heavy duty, ½” formed steel plate design is balanced like a tripod
and rolls on 3 wheels. The “kickstand” at the rear of the bender base
allows you to push the kickstand down with your foot to deploy the swiv-
eling caster and easily roll the bender to your work station. When located
in the ideal location, ip the kickstand up to disengage the swiveling
caster and stabilize the bender on the oor.
