prevent burns to yourself or others.

NOTE: Read and adhere to all warnings and instructions in the instruction manual provided by the

Assembly

Your Compact Bender-Bench will require complete assembly prior to operation. It is important that you read

the entire manual to become familiar with the unit BEFORE you use the Compact Bender. Before assembling

your Compact Bender be sure that you have all parts described in the Parts List on page 9.

When assembling your Compact Bender-Bench, it will be helpful to refer to each of the operational Figures as

well as to the Parts List and Assembly Diagrams on pages 9-11.
