READ INSTRUCTIONS

• Thoroughly read and understand this manual before using.

• Save for future reference.

PINCH AND CRUSH HAZARD!

• The Eastwood Vise Press Brake consists of sharp metal components which

can present a hand/ﬁnger pinch hazard and cause potentially serious

injuries. Avoid pinching hands while handling. Keep ﬁngers and hands away

from moving parts when operating.

CUT HAZARD!

• Handling sharp metal can cause serious cuts. Wear thick, well-ﬁtting work

gloves to prevent cuts from handling sharp metal.

EYE INJURY HAZARD!

• Metal particles can be ejected from the metal surface when bending.

Sheet metal edges and corners are sharp and can injure eyes.

Always wear ANSI approved eye protection when operating this tool.

• Before beginning ANY work with this tool, it is absolutely necessary that it

be mounted in a properly sized vise securely bolted to a sturdy, workbench

anchored to the ﬂoor or wall.

• Strenuous physical force may need to be applied to the Vise Press Brake

during use. Failure to ensure proper footing can quickly result in a fall which

could inﬂict serious personal injury or property damage. Always work in a

clean, uncluttered environment.

• Be sure there is sufﬁcient working room around the tool to allow for safe

handling of various sizes of metal.

• Excessive resistance while operating could indicate a defect with the

workpiece material or broken or damaged Vise Press Brake components.

To avoid injury, stop work immediately and inspect workpiece material for

nicks, dents, welds, excessive scale or remaining coatings. Clean or repair

as necessary or discard and begin with a new piece. Also inspect Vise Press

Brake components for looseness or damage.

OPERATION

• Measure and mark the desired bend line on the workpiece panel.

• Slide metal panel between the Dies lining up your pre-marked bend line with the sharp, beveled

edge of the Male Die (FIG 2).

• Gently and slowly draw the Vise jaws together to begin creating the desired bend.

NOTE: The use of an angle gauge or protractor (not included) is recommended.

• Depending on the alloy being bent, it may be necessary to push the dies slightly beyond the

desired ﬁnished angle to allow for “springback”. Some trial and error is suggested using scrap

material before making ﬁnal bends.

REMOVING & REPLACING DIE FINGERS

The individual Die Fingers located in the Male Die may be removed and rearranged for greater

precision in bending workpieces or may be replaced if nicks or damage should occur.

• To Remove

Using a 5mm Hex Key (not included), loosen the socket head cap screws and remove the

desired Die Fingers (FIG 3).

• To Replace

Insert Die Fingers into the Male Die as required, use care to properly align the sharp bending

edges then, once again, using a 5mm Hex Key, tighten all screws.

MAINTENANCE

• Keep all areas of the Dies clean, particularly those surfaces that contact sheetmetal

workpieces. Dirt and metal chips can cause uneven clamping and inaccurate bends.

• Store in a clean & dry environment when not in use. Coat all machined surfaces with

a light ﬁlm of oil, or suitable protectant, to prevent rust formation.
