Manual Before Operating This Machine
The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions.
This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words intended to convey the level of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below. Remember that
safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substitute for proper
accident prevention measures. Always use common sense and good judgment.
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD result in death or serious injury.
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert
against unsafe practices.

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.

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 Pan & Box Brakes
Hands/fingers can be crushed or severely pinched if caught between clamping fingers and
bending blocks during operation. Severe cuts can occur to hands/fingers when contacting
sharp workpiece edges. To minimize risk of injury, anyone operating this machine MUST
completely heed the hazards and warnings below.
CRUSHING & AMPUTATION INJURIES. The
brake can quickly crush or amputate fingers,
hands, or body parts. Never place fingers, hands,
or body parts between or near the clamping fingers and bending blocks during operation.
SECURING BRAKE. Before using, secure the
brake to the workbench so it can support the
weight and dynamic forces involved in bending
sheet metal. Otherwise, the brake may unexpectedly move or tip during operation, causing serious
injury or property damage.
TOOLS IN POOR CONDITION. Using this tool
with loose hardware or damaged components
could result in sudden, unexpected movements
during use. Inspect the brake for cracked components, damaged linkage, levers, or loose fasteners. Correct any problems before use.
LEAVING UNATTENDED. To reduce the risk of
crushing or amputation injuries with children or visitors, lower the clamping leaf when not in use.
METAL EDGES. Sharp edges on sheet metal can
produce severe cuts. Always wear leather gloves
and chamfer/de-burr sharp sheet metal edges
before bending the workpiece with this machine.
COMFORTABLE BODY POSITION. The required
body motion to operate the brake can result in
operator injury over time if proper ergonomics are
not used during operation.
HEATING METAL. Heating the workpiece with a
torch or welding it while clamped in the brake may
weaken the fingers, blocks, and frame. Do not use
a torch, welder, or other similar heating tool near
the brake.
CAPACITY. Exceeding the capacity of the brake
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 this brake (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.
-8-
No list of safety guidelines can be complete. Every shop environment is different.
Always consider safety first, as it applies
to your individual working conditions. Use
this and other machinery with caution and
respect. Failure to do so could result in
serious personal injury, damage to equipment, or poor work results.

Another option is a "direct mount" (see example
below) where the machine is secured directly to
the workbench with lag screws and washers.
The base of this machine has mounting holes
that allow it to be fastened to a workbench or
other mounting surface to prevent it from moving
during operation and causing accidental injury or
damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" (see example below) where holes are
drilled all the way through the workbench—and
hex bolts, washers, and hex nuts are used to
secure the machine in place.

adjusting setback
Adjusting Setback
You must include the thickness of folded
edges or joints when determining the proper setback, or the brake may be damaged.
Before you begin any bending operation, consider
the differences of sheet metal gauges when trying to achieve either sharp or rounded bends, and
allow for the differences by adjusting the setback.
3. Loosen cap screws that secure setback
wheels (see Figure 13).
Setback Wheel
(1 of 2)
Cap Screw
(1 of 2)
Setback is the distance from the forward edge
of the fingers to the edge of the bending leaf,
as shown in Figure 12. The setback distance is
determined by the gauge of the workpiece material and the desired radius of the bend.

Pressure
Clamping pressure must be properly adjusted for
different workpiece thicknesses. The ideal pressure will have medium resistance at the clamping
handles, and will lock the workpiece into position
easily—much like a pair of Vice-Grips
is adjusted by rotating the adjustment nuts on
the clamping pressure adjustment rods (see
Figure 14). These are located on both ends of the
pan and box brake.

To adjust clamping pressure:
1. Lower clamping leaf so clamping fingers just
touch workpiece.
Tip: It is best if the workpiece used in this
procedure is same width as pan and box
brake. If not, place two pieces of metal of
same thickness as workpiece on each end of
brake.
— If clamping handles are at 10 o'clock
(viewed from right end of brake) and 2
o'clock (viewed from left end of brake)
position, then clamping pressure is suitable for workpiece. Proceed to Step 4.
— If clamping handles are not at 10 o'clock
(viewed from right end of brake) and 2
o'clock (viewed from left end of brake)
position, then clamping pressure is not
suitable for workpiece. Proceed to Step 2.
2. Loosen adjustment nuts (see Figure 14)
and turn both sets up or down until clamping
handles are in 10 and 2 o'clock position when
clamping fingers just touch workpiece.

Figure 14. Locations of clamping components.
3. Tighten adjustment nuts to secure
position.
4. Make sure clamping pressure is even on both
ends of brake by raising one end and testing clamping action of other end. Clamping
action should be same on both ends.
5. If necessary, repeat Steps 1–4 until proper
clamping pressure is achieved.
Note: Proper clamping pressure is achieved
when the clamping handle "snaps" (or
locks) into position against handle stop (see
Figure 14).

Basic Bending
Do not operate machine unless it has been
securely mounted to a workbench, or it
could tip over on you, causing severe injury!
Bodily injury could result from using this
machine. Always wear safety glasses,
leather work boots, and heavy duty leather
work gloves when operating this machine
or whenever handling sheet metal.
5. With body square to brake and using both
hands, lift bending leaf until workpiece reaches desired bend angle.
6. Raise clamping leaf and remove workpiece.
Hold onto the workpiece so it does not drop
and hit you when it is released!
Bending Allowance
When a bend is made in sheet metal, the insidesurface of the bend compresses and the outside
surface stretches. To bend metal objects accurately, you need to consider the length of each
bend, especially when more than one bend is
required. This is called bend allowance.
All bending operations require the clamping fingers to be parallel with the edge of the clamping
surface and bending block, and the setback and
clamping pressure must be correctly adjusted for
the thickness of the workpiece.
To perform basic bending operations:
1. Determine setback required for bend and
adjust machine if needed (refer to Adjusting
Setback on Page 15).
2. Raise clamping leaf.
3. Insert workpiece between clamping fingers
and clamping surface.
4. Align bend mark(s) on workpiece with fingers, then clamp it in place using clamping
handles.
As a rule of thumb, subtract the bend allowance
from the sum of the workpiece outside dimensions to obtain the overall length and width of the
blank needed to make a particular part.
Exact allowances can only be obtained by trial
and error due to differences in sheet metal hardness, whether the bend is with or across the
grain, and the bend radius. Use metalworking
handbooks or the internet to find bend allowances
accurate enough for average use.
Note: If clamping handles do not lock, the
clamping pressure may need to be adjusted
(refer to Adjusting Clamping Pressure on
Page 16).
