Preparation Before every use, follow these procedures to set up your slip roll for safe, accurate, and efficient use. to prepare the slip roll for use: turn the thickness adjust knob to lower the bottom roller to approximately top roller. use calipers or a spacer to set the distance between the rollers evenly at each end (figure 11).
remove the workpiece from between the rollers, then raise the bottom roller slightly by rotating each thickness adjust knob approxi- mately ⁄ turn. also, make sure the rear roller is lowered completely and will not interfere with the workpiece as it exits the machine (figure 14).

turn the crank clockwise to feed the workpiece until its front edge is directly above the rear roller, as shown in figure 17. figure 17. Feeding the workpiece. turn the radius adjust knobs to lift the rear roller until the desired radius bend is reached (figure 18).
creating cylinders the Model g5770 slip roll can be used to easily and accurately create cylinders. if you know the diameter of the cylinder you want to create, use the formula below to calculate the length of material needed. c=πD C=Circumference (length of Material needed) π=pi (approximately 3.142)

turn the crank clockwise to feed the workpiece until it is approximately half way through the rollers. turn the radius adjust knobs to lift the rear roller until the desired radius bend is reached (figure 22). Make sure to turn the knobs equal amounts so the rear roller is always parallel with the other rollers.
Continue to process the workpiece until the cylinder is formed, as shown in figure 26. —if the ends of the cylinder do not meet, lift the rear roller equally at both ends, then process the entire cylinder through the slip roll again.
Removing Workpiece to remove cylindrical workpieces: loosen the jam nut and hex bolt until the top roller release lever can be lifted (figure 28). top roller release lever Jam nut hex Bolt figure 28. Hex bolt and jam nut. lift the top roller release lever, then open the upper bushing assembly (figure 29).
