IMPORTANT BENDING TIPS
1. Use this bender only in a well ventilated area. Do not
operate this unit near volatile or combustible materials.
2. Wear insulated gloves when operating this unit and
always use the plastic handles when moving or open -
ing unit.
3. A few practice bends using sections of scrap PVC are
always recommended so that operator becomes famil-
iar with the operation of this unit.
4. Since a 10 to 15 minute warm-up period is required
before bending can begin, operator should set up unit
and switch on the power as soon as he arrives at the job
site. During warm-up, operator can assemble his mate-
rials, plan his bends, and mark the bend areas on the
PVC conduit.
5. To help prevent kinks or wrinkles when making 90
degree bends in 2" PVC duct, use 2 Greenlee No.
30976 PVC Plugs to trap the air in the conduct and help
keep the PVC from flattening or kinking.
