3. Manual Operation
Start Hydraulic pump with the “START” button.
Go to the “Manual/Homing” screen; press “F4” if in the “Production” screen.
Toggle “F2” button between “Extend” & “Retract” to control the rotation
direction of the tooling head.
Position and hold fingers in the two hand safety switch to activate rotation.
Rotation will stop when fingers are removed from the safety switch or the
hydraulic cylinder has reached full stroke in either direction.
The “F2” button must be toggled back to rotate the tooling head in the other
direction.
NOTE: The bend value is displayed but cannot be reset. Also, the proximity switch
used for homing in “Auto” mode does not stop rotation in “Manual” mode.
4. Automatic Operation (Step 1-Homing)
Using the manual operation (Step 1) rotate the tooling head to the desired
“Home” position for making a bend.
Once properly positioned, press “F1” when in the ‘Manual/Homing” screen to
