Read the instruction manual thoroughly for assembly, maintenance and safety instructions.
NOTE: For brake operation, install guide rods into upper set of holes (Figure 4); for shear operation, install in lower set of holes (Figure 5). 10. Hold workpiece steady and use operating handle to make bend. To adjust brake beam (G, Figure 7) for 90° bends at bottom of stroke: 12. Install guide plate as shown in Figures 4 or 5. Secure it to rods using the T-handles. 1. Slightly loosen locking screws (H) using 8mm hex key. 6.4 Press Brake set-up 2.
Figure 10 6.5.2 Blade Rotation/Replacement Figure 8 6.5.1 Lower Blade Adjustment Exercise caution when working with or near the blades. Use work gloves when handling them. Upper and lower shear blades have been factory aligned and should not require immediate adjustment. Should re-alignment be needed in the future, proceed as follows: The shearing blades are reversible and interchangeable; when the edges dull, rotate them to the new edge, as follows: 1.
6.6 Slip Roll set-up 3. Loosen bolt (R, Figure 12) to increase space between upper and lower press rolls. Do not roll material larger than 30” (40”), 20-gauge mild steel. The slip roll guard must cover the rolls except when material is being fed into the rolls. Failure to comply may cause serious injury and/or damage to the machine. 4. Insert material between upper and lower rolls, and tighten bolt (R, Figure 12) to lower the upper roll, until material fits snugly.
2. Feed workpiece into machine. As it nears the end (a, Figure 16), stop and reverse direction (b, Figure 16). Grasp upper roll firmly, to prevent it falling out of machine. 4. Slip workpiece off end of roll. 3. Make further passes if needed, along with incremental idle roll adjustments. 5. Reinstall upper roll, and tighten screw and bolt (S, Figure 13). 6.6.1 Flat Rolling Softer metals (copper, aluminum, etc.
7.0 Maintenance/Lubrication 8.0 Optional Accessories Use caution when doing maintenance work around the shear blades. 1. Apply #2 lithium tube grease once a month to the grease nipples on both ends of frame (A, Figure 17). Part No. Description 754030 754040 Optional Stand for SBR-30N/M Optional Stand for SBR-40N/M 2. Keep the slip rolls clean and rust-free, and frequently apply a light coat of oil to them. 3. Lightly brush multi-purpose grease onto the gears at the end of the rollers (B, Figure 17).
9.0 Troubleshooting Trouble Probable Cause Remedy Incorrect blade gap. Adjust gap to accommodate thicker material. Machine capacity exceeded. Use materials within capacity. Unequal blade gap. Make blade gap equal. Not contacting table guides. Maintain consistent guides contact. Blade is bowed. Remove bow. Insufficient hold-down pressure. Adjust hold down. Dull blade(s). Replace or sharpen. Incorrect blade gap. Adjust gap as needed. Loose gibs. Adjust backlash out of gibs.
