Whenever necessary, replace nameplate, operation and
safety decals when they become difficult to read.
ALWAYS check the equipment for loosened threads or
bolts before starting.
MAINTAIN equipment is a safe operating condition at
all times.
INSPECT the equipment after each use. Replace
any damaged or worn parts immediately. Do not use
equipment if defective.
If a malfunction occurs, immediately unplug the
equipment from the power source and correct the
problem. If problem cannot be corrected, contact the
nearest MQ service center.
ALWAYS store the equipment in a clean, dry location
out of the reach of children.
EMERGENCIES
ALWAYS know the location of the nearest
fire extinguisher.
ALWAYS know the location of the nearest
first aid kit.
In emergencies, always know the location
of the nearest phone or keep a phone on the job site.
Also know the phone numbers of the nearest ambulance, doctor and fire department. This information will be

MB25HD REBAR BENDER • OPERATION AND PARTS MANUAL — REV. #0 (04/05/10) — PAGE 5
ALWAYS test the POWER switch on the equipment before
operating. The purpose of this switch is to shut down the power.
NEVER use a extension cord that is frayed or damaged where
the insulation has been cut.
NEVER carry the equipment by its power cord or disconnect
it by yanking the cord from the power outlet.
ALWAYS make certain that the proper extension cord
has been selected for the job. See Extension Cord Gauge
Selection Table.
NEVER allow power cord to lay in water.
NEVER stand in water while operating the equipment.
When connecting the unit to a power receptacle, make sure
the receptacle circuit is connected to either a GFCI receptacle
or a receptacle protected by a 20 amp circuit breaker.
When plugging the unit into a power receptacle, check the
nameplate for the correct operating voltage. Operating the
rebar bender at the wrong voltage will damage the electrical
components. ALWAYS read the nameplate before applying
power.
This unit is equipped with a 3-prong male power plug. DO
NOT use a 2-prong adapter when plugging into a wall outlet.
This will defeat the purpose of the ground circuit. If the plug
does not fit into the receptacle, contact a qualified electrician
to install a 3-conductor wall receptacle (outlet).
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk
of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
DO NOT expose the hydraulic power unit to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering the power unit will increase the
risk of electrical shock.
When operating the unit outdoors, be sure to use the
appropriate outdoor extension cord. This type of extension
cord reduces the risk of electrical shock.
ALWAYS remove the AC power cord from the power source
before performing any service or maintenance on the unit.
This preventative safety measure reduces the possibility of
accidental starting.
When operating near an arc welder, it is important the both
the unit and the welding equipment be connected to the
same earth ground. If they are not, server damage to the
unit, par ticularly to the power cord could occur. Personal
injury may also occur.

GENERAL INFORMATION
The MQ MB25HD Rebar Bender is designed to be used
as a portable on-site rebar bender, capable of bending
in-place rebar to approved American Concrete Institute
(ACI) radius. Labor time and injuries are greatly reduced
from manually bending rebar. The MB25HD is capable of
bends up to 180°.
The MB25HD comes standard with 3 rollers and 5 collars
which can be used in different combinations to match the
diameter of the rebar to be bent.
The MB25HD comes with a foot switch which can start
the bending procedure with a push of the pedal instead of
pressing the start button.
An emergency button is available to immediately stop the
machine when something goes wrong during bending. The
roller then returns to the starting position.

SELECTION AND INSTALLATION OF ROLLER AND
COLLAR
WARNING
Keep fingers from the bending area. Moving parts can
cause serious injury.
Do not drop anything into the machine from the bending
area as this may damage the machine.
1. Select the roller and corresponding collar to match the
diameter of the rebar to be bent. See Table 2 for the
different combinations.
2. Apply multi-purpose grease to the roller.
3. Install the collar and the roller as shown in Figure 2.
REBAR
CORRECT
STOPPER
Figure 3. Stopper Position
8. Rotate the Angle Select Dial to the desired angle that
the rebar is to be bent (Figure 4).
Figure 4. Selecting the Bending Angle
9. Plug the power cord into a proper single-phase power
source. Make sure that the rebar bender is properly
grounded.
WRONG
Figure 2. Roller and Collar Installation
4. When using a roller with a bearing, bearing must face
downward.
5. When using a collar with a bearing, bearing must face
downward.
6. To prevent the roller and the collar from coming off,
attach the washer securely with the bolt.
7. Position the stopper so that rebar to be bent is parallel
to the front of the stopper and tighten the rebar securely
in place. If the rebar is not parallel to the front, the
bending angle will be incorrect. See Figure 3.
10. Turn the power switch on.
11. Hold the rebar firmly and press the Start Switch. This
will engage the clutch and the roller to bend the rebar.
12. After the rebar is bent to the desired angle, the roller
will automatically spring back to the starting position.

USING THE FOOT SWITCH
Instead of the Start Switch, the Foot Switch can be used
to start the bending process. See Figure 5.
Figure 5. Starting with the Foot Switch
1. Insert the plug of the foot switch to the Foot Switch
Connector on the front panel of the rebar bender.
2. Press the pedal on the foot switch to start bending.
3. When the bending angle is achieved, the roller will
automatically spring back to the start position.
WARNING
The roller goes back to start position very quickly after
bending because of the spring mechanism. Keep away
from the machine until the roller is completely back in
the start position to prevent any injury.
DANGER
During operation of this rebar bender,
there exists the possibility of electrocu-tion, electrical shock or burn, which
can cause severe bodily harm or even
DEATH!
To avoid these hazards:
NEVER use damaged or worn cables when plugging the
rebar bender into an AC power receptacle.
NEVER grab or touch a live power
cord with wet hands.
NEVER stand in water and touch
a live power cord.
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
1. To stop the rebar bender immediately in case anything
goes wrong in the bending process, press the
Emergency Stop Button (Figure 6). The roller on the
rebar bender will immediately stop and return to the
start position.
Figure 6. Emergency Stop Switch
It is not necessary to press the pedal
continuously while bending. Once the pedal
is pressed bending will start and pedal can
be released.

REMOVING STEEL DEBRIS
1. To remove steel debris from the machine, tilt it and
clear all debris from the outlet.
WARNING
Do not let debris or rust accumulate inside the machine
as this could lead to malfunction of the machine.
REPLACING CARBON BRUSHES
WARNING
Unplug unit from power source before replacing carbon
brushes.
When the carbon becomes less than 5 or 6 mm (1/4 inch)
the motor force deteriorates because of low rectification
(Figure 7). The carbon brushes need to be replaced.
1. Make sure that the power plug is not connected to the
power source.
CARBON BRUSH CAP
Figure 8. Replacing Carbon Brushes
2. Remove the rear panel and the bottom plate of the
machine so that the outer frame of the motor is visible
(Figure 8).
3. Remove the carbon brush cap of the motor outer frame
using a standard screwdriver.
4. Replace the carbon brushes with new ones.
5. Put back the cap and reinstall the rear and end panels
of the machine.
