cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or tangled cables increase the risk of
electric shocks.
• To use a power tool in the open air, use an extension cable indicated for exterior use. When you use a cable
suitable for exterior use, this decreases the risk of electric shocks.
• If using the power tool in a wet environment is unavoidable, use a power supply protected by a residual
current differential device (RCD). When you use a RCD, this decreases the risk of electric shocks.
3. Staff safety
• Keep alert, check what you are doing and use common sense when handling a power tool. Do not use
power tools if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medicinal products. One moment of
distraction while handling power tools can cause serious personal injury.
• Use personal protection equipment. Protection equipment, such as dust masks, non-slip footwear, hard
hats and hearing protection, can reduce personal injuries.
• Hearing protection devices. When working with different materials, the noise level may vary and exceed,
at times, the limit of 85 dB(A). Always use hearing protection devices.
• Wear safety goggles.
• Wear safety gloves. Always wear safety gloves, as the edges of the cut pipes are sharp and can cause cuts..
• Ensure no devices can be started up accidentally. Ensure the switch is in the off position before connecting
the electric supply or lifting or moving the tool. Transporting power tools with your finger on the switch or
connecting power tools that are switched on to the electric supply is much more likely to cause accidents.
• Remove all spanners before starting the power tool. Leaving spanners connected to rotating parts of the
tool could cause personal injuries.
• Avoid unstable positions. Maintain good, balanced posture at all times. Thus, you will have better control
over the power tool in unforeseen situations.
• Wear suitable clothing. Avoid loose clothing and jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from
the moving parts. Long, loose hair, jewellery and loose clothing can become trapped in the moving parts.
4. Special safety instructions
• Do not force the power tool. Use the power tool that is appropriate for your specific application. The
correct power tool will do the work better and more safely, at the speed for which it was designed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not switch on and off. All power tools that cannot can be
controlled with the switch are dangerous and must be repaired immediately.
• Disconnect the plug from the power supply to the tool before making any adjustment, changing accessories
or putting it away. These preventive measures reduce the risk of the power tool being started up accidentally.
• Keep stopped power tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow people that are not familiar with the
power tool or these instructions to use the tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Maintenance of power tools. Revise the tools in search of misalignments or coupling of moving parts,
broken parts or any other defect that may affect the functioning of the power tool. If the power supply cable
is damaged, repair it before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly kept power supply cables.
Use the power tool, the accessories, the components, etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the operational conditions and the work you are going to perform. If you use the power tool for
work other than the conventional tasks, this could cause hazardous situations.

Preparation for start-up
1. Working position (See figure B.1)
The position shown in the sketch would be ideal for comfort and safety during the entire bending
process.
2. Working area (See figure B.2)
Before start, the bending area should be clear from any element that may interfere in the bending
process.
3. Use of extension cords The extension cable should as thick and short as possible. It should handle
more than 15 Amp., and never be more than 30 m. in length.
4. Check the state of the on/off switch
Make sure that the on/off switch unlocks automatically when not pressed.
5. Use of tripod (optional) (See figure B.3)
The sketch shows assembly and coupling of tripod to bending machine.
