Safety Instructions for Machinery

OWNER’S MANUAL. Read and understand this
owner’s manual BEFORE using machine.
TRAINED OPERATORS ONLY. Untrained oper­ators have a higher risk of being hurt or killed. Only allow trained/supervised people to use this machine. When machine is not being used, dis­connect power, remove switch keys, or lock-out machine to prevent unauthorized use—especially around children. Make your workshop kid proof!
DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use machinery in areas that are wet, cluttered, or have poor lighting. Operating machinery in these areas greatly increases the risk of accidents and injury.
MENTAL ALERTNESS REQUIRED. Full mental alertness is required for safe operation of machin­ery. Never operate under the influence of drugs or alcohol, when tired, or when distracted.
ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT INJURY RISKS. You can be shocked, burned, or killed by touching live electrical components or improperly grounded machinery. To reduce this risk, only allow qualified service personnel to do electrical installation or repair work, and always disconnect power before accessing or exposing electrical equipment.
DISCONNECT POWER FIRST. nect machine from power supply BEFORE mak­ing adjustments, changing tooling, or servicing machine. This prevents an injury risk from unin­tended startup or contact with live electrical com­ponents.
EYE PROTECTION. Always wear ANSI-approved safety glasses or a face shield when operating or observing machinery to reduce the risk of eye injury or blindness from flying particles. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT approved safety glasses.
Always discon-

Model T32718 (Mfd. Since 07/21)
WEARING PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear clothing, apparel or jewelry that can become entangled in moving parts. Always tie back or cover long hair. Wear non-slip footwear to reduce risk of slipping and losing control or accidentally contacting cutting tool or moving parts.
HAZARDOUS DUST. Dust created by machinery operations may cause cancer, birth defects, or long-term respiratory damage. Be aware of dust hazards associated with each workpiece mate­rial. Always wear a NIOSH-approved respirator to reduce your risk.
HEARING PROTECTION. Always wear hear­ing protection when operating or observing loud machinery. Extended exposure to this noise without hearing protection can cause permanent hearing loss.
REMOVE ADJUSTING TOOLS. Tools left on machinery can become dangerous projectiles upon startup. Never leave chuck keys, wrenches, or any other tools on machine. Always verify removal before starting!
USE CORRECT TOOL FOR THE JOB. Only use this tool for its intended purpose—do not force it or an attachment to do a job for which it was not designed. Never make unapproved modifica­tions—modifying tool or using it differently than intended may result in malfunction or mechanical failure that can lead to personal injury or death!
AWKWARD POSITIONS. Keep proper footing and balance at all times when operating machine. Do not overreach! Avoid awkward hand positions that make workpiece control difficult or increase the risk of accidental injury.
CHILDREN & BYSTANDERS. Keep children and bystanders at a safe distance from the work area. Stop using machine if they become a distraction.
GUARDS & COVERS. Guards and covers reduce accidental contact with moving parts or flying debris. Make sure they are properly installed, undamaged, and working correctly BEFORE operating machine.
FORCING MACHINERY. Do not force machine. It will do the job safer and better at the rate for which it was designed.
NEVER STAND ON MACHINE. Serious injury may occur if machine is tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
STABLE MACHINE. Unexpected movement dur­ing operation greatly increases risk of injury or loss of control. Before starting, verify machine is stable and mobile base (if used) is locked.
USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult this owner’s manual or the manufacturer for rec­ommended accessories. Using improper acces­sories will increase the risk of serious injury.
UNATTENDED OPERATION. To reduce the risk of accidental injury, turn machine OFF and ensure all moving parts completely stop before walking away. Never leave machine running while unattended.
MAINTAIN WITH CARE. Follow all maintenance instructions and lubrication schedules to keep machine in good working condition. A machine that is improperly maintained could malfunction, leading to serious personal injury or death.
DAMAGED PARTS. Regularly inspect machine for damaged, loose, or mis-adjusted parts—or any condition that could affect safe operation. Immediately repair/replace BEFORE operating machine. For your own safety, DO NOT operate machine with damaged parts!
MAINTAIN POWER CORDS. When disconnect­ing cord-connected machines from power, grab and pull the plug—NOT the cord. Pulling the cord may damage the wires inside. Do not handle cord/plug with wet hands. Avoid cord damage by keeping it away from heated surfaces, high traffic areas, harsh chemicals, and wet/damp locations.
EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time you experience difficulties performing the intend­ed operation, stop using the machine! Contact our Technical Support at (570) 546-9663.

Additional Safety for Slip Rolls

Serious injury can occur from fingers or hands getting crushed /pinched in rotating parts. Sharp metal edges can easily cut skin. An unsecured machine can tip during operation and cause crushing injuries. To minimize risk of injury, anyone operating this machine MUST completely heed hazards and warnings below.
CRUSHING & PINCHING INJURIES. Slip rolls
can quickly crush or pinch fingers or hands. Never place fingers or hands between or near rollers dur­ing operation.
METAL EDGES. Sharp edges on sheet metal can result in severe cuts. Always wear leather gloves and buttoned long-sleeves when working with sheet metal. Always chamfer and deburr metal edges.
BACK INJURIES. Cranking motion required to operate slip roll is potentially harmful if proper technique is not used. To avoid back injuries, keep back vertical and never over-exert yourself or oper­ate slip roll in awkward positions.
TOOL USAGE. Do not attempt to process any material outside capacities of this machine (e.g., glass, ceramic, plastic, etc.) that could result in material or tool breakage.
FOOT PROTECTION. Heavy workpieces acciden­tally falling off of rollers during operation can injure operator’s feet. To reduce your risk, wear steel­toed boots when using machine.
SECURING SLIP ROLL. Before using, secure slip roll to floor so it can withstand dynamic forces involved with forming sheet metal. Otherwise, it may move or tip during operation, causing serious injury or property damage.
FEEDING WORKPIECE. Forcefully jamming workpiece through rollers could cause hands or fingers to slip and get caught in moving parts, causing pinching and crushing injuries. DO NOT use hands to force workpiece through rollers.
HAND PLACEMENT. Holding workpiece too close to rollers during operation increases risk of pinch­ing and crushing injuries. To reduce your risk, NEVER place hands and fingers near rollers dur­ing operation.
CAPACITY. Exceeding capacity of machine may result in sudden breakage that ejects dangerous metal debris at the operator or bystanders, or causes machine damage. Only use sheet metal that is within the rated capacity of machine (refer to the Machine Data Sheet).
Like all machinery there is potential danger when operating this machine. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to decrease the risk of operator injury. If normal safety pre­cautions are overlooked or ignored, seri­ous personal injury may occur.

This slip roll can create constant-radius bends in sheet metal up to 15 gauge mild steel.
Note: The method for creating a specific radius is a trial-and-error process. Due to the many varia­tions among metal workpieces, no single position­ing will create the same curve on all materials. We recommend using scrap pieces the same dimen­sions and material as the final workpiece until the desired curve is achieved.
Upper and lower rollers of machine present pinching hazard. Make sure no body part or clothing is near area between rollers. Failure to follow this warning may result in fingers, hair, or clothing being pulled into machine, causing personal injur y.

Creating Cylinders

This slip roll can be used to easily and accurately create cylinders.
Note: The method for creating a specific radius is a trial-and-error process. Due to the many varia­tions among metal workpieces, no single position­ing will create the same curve on all materials.
To create a cylinder:
If you know the diameter of the cylinder you want to create, use the formula below to calculate the length of material needed.
C=πD
C=Circumference (Length of Material Needed)
π=Pi (Approximately 3.14)
D=Diameter
Example: Suppose you want to create a 6" diam­eter cylinder. You would use the above formula as follows:
C=πD C=3.14 x 6" C=187⁄8"
7
The result of 18 metal that is approximately 18
8" indicates that a piece of sheet
7
8" in length is
needed to create a 6" diameter cylinder.
You can use the slip roll to create a bend with the correct radius so that the two ends meet, forming a 6" diameter cylinder (see Figure 20).

Creating Cones

Bending cones requires more advanced equa­tions and techniques than cylinders. The following section explains the basic principles for bend­ing a truncated, concentric cone. If you require information for bending more complicated cones, please consult outside training, books, and other research.
Similar to the process for bending cylinders, if you know the two diameters and the height of the cone you want to create (see Figure 31), you can use those values to determine the dimensions of the initial, flat workpiece before bending.
Height
There are 5 values you will need to calculate in order to cut a flat workpiece that will bend into a functional cone: LargeC, SmallC, RadiusH, TConeH, and TConeRadiusH.
LargeC and SmallC
Use the following formulas to calculate the circumference of both cone openings.
LargeC=πLargeD,
SmallC=πSmallD
LargeC=Large Circumference (Arc Length of Material Needed at Larger End)
SmallC=Small Circumference (Arc Length of Material Needed at Smaller End)
π=Pi (Approximately 3.14)
LargeD=Large Diameter
Large Dia.
Small Dia.
Figure 31. Example of known cone dimensions.
The Model T32718 can bend cylinder and cone diameters as small as 3" due to the roller size, so both diameters of your cone must be larger than 3" to be bent on this machine. Since a "true" cone requires one of the diameters to equal 0", figures and steps in this section refer to a "truncated cone", or a cone lacking an apex whose top is parallel to the base (see Figure 32).
SmallD=Small Diameter
Large Circum.
Small Circum.
Figure 33. Location of small and large
circumference of flat workpiece.
Example: Suppose you want to create a cone with a 5" diameter at one end and a 3" diameter on the other end. You would use the circumfer­ence formulas as follows:
Truncated Cone

The results indicate that a piece of sheet metal needs an arc on one side of approximately
11
16" and an arc of 97⁄16" on the other side (see
15 Figure 34).
1511⁄16" Circum.
Radius height differs from the actual cone height because, as you can see from Figure 36, the radius height is not 90° in relation to table or floor.

LargeD=Large Diameter
RadiusH
ConeH
Figure 36. Difference between radius height and
overall cone height.
Suppose the cone in the previous example has a height of 6". To find the radius height of the cone, you would use the radius height formula as follows:
RadiusH=(ConeH)² + (LargeD/2 - SmallD/2 RadiusH=√6² + (5/2 - 3/2 RadiusH=√6² + (2.5 - 1.5)² RadiusH=√6² + 1² RadiusH=37 RadiusH=6.083

TConeH
Next, we need to calculate the finished height of the cone if it were a "true" cone:
TConeH=ConeH x
(LargeD - SmallD)
TConeH=Finished True Cone Height
ConeH=Finished Truncated Cone Height
L a r g e D
The results indicate that our truncated cone with a finished height of 6, a small diameter of 3, and a large diameter of 5 would have a height of 15 if the edges continued on to meet at an apex to form a true cone (see Figure 39).
LargeD=Large Diameter

Following along our previous example, we can plug in the values we know:

Figure 39. Example of calculated finished true
cone height.
TConeRadiusH
The last value we need is the radius height of our cone if it were a true cone. Similar to calculating the radius height for the truncated cone as we did in RadiusH, you will use the TConeH value found in the previous section to find the radius height of the true cone.
TConeRadiusH=√(TConeH)² + (LargeD/2)²
TConeRadiusH=True Cone Flat Workpiece Height
TConeH=Finished True Cone Height
TConeH=ConeH x LargeD - SmallD

Lubrication

When lubricating this machine, first clean the components before lubricating them. This step is critical because grime and dust build up on lubri­cated components, which makes them hard to move. Simply adding more lubricant will not result in smooth moving parts.
