Page 6: Safety Precautions
BEWARE OF PINCH POINTS Keep hands and fingers away from the drive mechanisms, cylinders, ratchets, and other moving linkage while the machine is in operation. KEEP CLEAR OF MOVING OBJECTS Always be aware of the position of the material and the swing area in which the material will travel. - Page 7 4. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries. 5. Overloading machine. By overloading the machine you may cause injury from flying parts. DO NOT exceed the specified machine capacities. 6. Dressing material edges. Always chamfer and deburr all sharp edges. 7.

Page 9: Unpacking And Checking Contents
UNPACKING AND CHECKING CONTENTS Your Baileigh machine is shipped complete in one crate. Separate all parts from the packing material and check each item carefully. Make certain all items are accounted for before discarding any packing material. WARNING: SUFFOCATION HAZARD! Immediately discard any plastic bags and packing materials to eliminate choking and suffocation hazards to children and animals. -
Page 10: Transporting And Lifting
TRANSPORTING AND LIFTING CAUTION: Lifting and carrying operations should be carried out by skilled workers, such as a truck operator. Make sure the machine is well balanced. Choose a location that will keep the machine free from vibration and dust from other machinery. Keep in mind that having a large clearance area around the machine is important for safe and efficient working conditions. - Page 11 • Keep the floor free of oil and make sure it is not slippery. • Remove scrap and waste materials regularly, and make sure the work area is free from obstructing objects. • If long lengths of material are to be fed into the machine, make sure that they will not extend into any aisles.

Page 14: General Design Description
GENERAL DESIGN DESCRIPTION You have made a practical choice in purchasing the RDB-050 Manual Bending Machine. It has been carefully built of high quality materials and designed to give many years of efficient service. The simplicity of design and minimum effort required to operate the machine contributes towards meeting schedules and producing greater profits. -
Page 15: Operation
OPERATION CAUTION: Always wear proper eye protection with side shields, safety footwear, and leather gloves to protect from burrs and sharp edges. Bending 1. Before actually bending, several "dry runs" should be performed to familiarize yourself with all of the machine functions. 2. -
Page 16: Die Selection
CAUTION: It is important to release pressure gently. If the anti-springback lever is released without caution, the handle assembly and ratchet wheel can violently whip around possibly causing injury. When the desired degree position is reached, the anti-springback lever (A) needs to be deactivated to release the material. -
Page 17: Die Installation
Die Installation 1. To install the die. Remove all of the pivot pins and install them in their storage area to the left of the ratchet wheel. 2. Choose either a 90 or 180 degree die set. Locate the dies center hole with the center of the machine. -
Page 18: Material Insertion
Material Insertion 1. Once the die set is properly installed, the material that matches the die can be inserted (I.E. 1-1/4”tube would go into a die mark DS-**-1250T-R***). 2. With the ratchet wheel in the home (0°) position insert the material through the counter die and forming die and into the hook sleeve so that the material extends at least 1/4"... -
Page 19: Understanding Springback
UNDERSTANDING SPRINGBACK Springback can be difficult to understand. As material is bent, the materials yield strength resists being formed. As a final degree is reached, the machine will have enough power to hold the bend at a set degree, but as the pressure of the machine is released, the material has a resistance built in, so it “springs back”... -

• Another program available is BEND-TECH which is a program specifically designed for tube bending and will give you all of the required data to make a part. This software is available from Baileigh Industrial. • Bending with a rotary draw bender requires determining the start of bend point which will line up with the “0”... -
