Operating Instructions
Preparing Unit for Operation
Choose the desired size bending mandrel (6) and
slide the square hole on the ratchet bar (4).
Fasten the correctly sized crossbar assembly (1)
on the bender body (2), so that the desired size
bending shoes (3) are in the same plane as the
mandrel. Use the wing screw (5) to fasten. The
bending shoes are marked with the various tube
sizes. Rotate the desired size shoe to face the
bender handle. Pull the feed lever (7) away from
the handle in the indicated direction (8) and push
the mandrel and ratchet bar back towards the
handle. Release feed lever (7). You are now
ready to bend tubing.
Bending Operation
Put your tubing between the mandrel and bending shoes making sure the bending shoe (3) and
mandrel (6) are matched for size. Squeeze the
feed lever a few times in the indicated direction
“(9)” to begin the bend. When the bender is in the
desired position, continue squeezing the lever
until the bend is complete. To remove the tube,
pull the feed lever (7) away from the handle in the
indicated direction (8), push the mandrel back
toward the handle and take the tubing out.
CAUTION: Annealed tubing should be cooled prior to bending so bending mandrel and bending
shoes are not damaged.
Tool Maintenance
This unit is maintenance free, no service is
required.

(included in Deluxe Alloy Ratchet Tube Bender Kit 63325)
To bend tubing from the outside of the bend, the

bender handle) is required.
Adapter “A” attaches to the end of the bender
body (Figure 2) where the correctly sized crossbar is normally fastened.

ratchet bar (4). The bending mandrel is installed
onto the square at the end of the “A” adapter.
The crossbar is fastened with the screw to the
end of adapter “B” (See Figures 1, 2 & 3).
The bend alignment and bending are done as in
