Use of the Right Angle Bend Attachment

You will want to use the Right Angle attachment instead of the Stop Block

when making a right angle or sharp bend in the stock.

The Right Angle Attachment ﬁts on the Compact Bender only one way.

Step 1) Install the Support Pin (#5) under the Right Angle attachment. This will raise it up so that it sits

above the Ring Assembly/Die Receiver-see Figure 6.

Step 2) Set the Support Pin into the 3rd hole on the Ring Assembly/Die Receiver (#10). Line up the hole

in the top of the Right Angle Bending Attachment (#7) with hole #2 in the Ring Assembly Die

Receiver (#10)-see Figure 6. Insert the Long Hitch Pin (#1) through the second hole in the Ring

Assembly/Die Receiver (#10) to secure the Right Angle Bending Attachment (#7) in place.

Note: Your workpiece will not need to be clamped when you are using the Right Angle Bending At-

tachment (#7).

Step 3) Mark the stock at the points that you desire to make a bend. Line up the stock so that the Right

Angle Attachment hits directly at the midpoint of your mark.

The Stop and Adjustable Stop Loop

Many times while using the Bender you will need to make repeated bends of the same type and angle. In

these instances, using the Adjustable Stop Loop (#26) or the Stop (#4) will save time and allow for precisely

the same bends.

Adjust the Stop and Adjustable Stop Loop with a piece of scrap metal prior to using your actual workpiece.

This will assure accuracy and aid in obtaining ideal placement of the Stop.
