BENDING SUPPORT AND BENDING KIT FOR BIG DIAMETERS (STAR-20): The STAR-20 model has a different
square than the STAR-16 GO, which allows bending of larger diameter bars thanks to the fact that it has a bending kit for big
diameters.
If Ø16 mm or Ø20 mm bars are to be bent, the bending kit for big diameters must be used. The bending kit for
big diameters "B" is placed on the bending plate and is fixed with 2 screws "T", as shown in the image. Next, drive pin
"A" is inserted. Finally, the mandrels "M1" and the bending mandrels "M2" are placed depending on the diameter of
the bar to be bent.
The kit for big diameters includes 2 screws "E" to facilitate the removal of it if it gets stuck and cannot be easily
removed.
Next, the bending support is placed, which can be mounted on the right or left side, according to selected direction
of rotation. This bending support has a screwed outer part, which must be placed according to the side on which the
bending support has been mounted with respect to the plate. This outer screwed part does not need to be fitted when
using the kit for big diameters.
If the bars to be bent have a diameter smaller than Ø16mm, the bending is done without the bending kit for big
diameters, as shown in the following image:
