GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
USAGE
Use NRB-22 NRB-25 NRB-32 rebar bender on concrete
re-inforcing bars only.
RESRICT USE TO DESIGNATED MATERIALS
Don’t use the machine to bend very hard rebar.The hard rebar may
break and will also damage the tool. Do not attempt to bend rebars.
Harder,thicker or thinner than those specified (see page 5).
USE EYE PROTECTION
Wear safety goggles,safety glasses with side shields or a face shield
while using bender.
PROVIDE SAFETY BARRIERS
Erect safety screens to protect co-workers from possible flying
ends.Place safety screen under the rebar when working in high places.
GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK
To avoid possible electric shock,do not handle bender with wet hands
or use bender in the rain or damp places.Be aware of all power
lines,electric circuits and other hazards that may be
contacted,especially those that are below the surface or otherwise
hidden from view.
UNPLUG TOOL
Disconnect bender from outlet while not in use and before
cleaning,adjusting or servicing.Do not disconnect plug from outlet by
pulling the cord.Always check that the switch lock is OFF before
plugging in.
BEWARE OF ENVIRONMENT
Do not use bender in the presence of flammable materials(e.g.
paint,thinner, petroleum products ,adhesives).
Do not use bender in a possibly lighted and clear of
obstructions.Operator should at all times have an unobstructed view
of the cutter,rebar and surrounding area.
WEAR PROPER APPAREL
Do not wear loose clothes,dangling objects or jewellery.Restrain
long hair.
The use of a safety-helmet and rubber soled boots is recommended.If
safety gloves are worn,be especially careful that gloves does not get
caught in moving parts
KEEP VISITORS AWAY
Keep all visitors at a safe distance from the work area for their own
protection
And to prevent distraction of the operator.
MAINTAIN BENDER WITH CARE
Inspect bender before each application.Keep handle dry,clean and free
from oil and/or grease.Keep housing and piston free of dirt and iron
filings.Check that no screws or bolts are loose or missing.Following
instructions for maintenance.Inspect switch,cord,Plug and any
extension cable at regular intervals.
STORE CAREFULLY
When not in use,store bender and accessories in a dry place where
they can’t be accessed by unauthorized persons.

PRE-USE CHECKS
1. Check oil level.
2. Check condition of bender blocks and tightness of bender block
bolts.
3. Check that the power source is appropriate to the bender
CARE: if voltage is too high,the motor will burn out.If the voltage
is too Low,insufficient power will be generated.Never use DC
power.
4. Check that power supply is properly earthed.
! CAUTION:Failure to earth power supply may result in electric
shock to operator.
5. Check that cord is undamaged and that plug is not loose.
If an extension cable is to be used,make sure that it is undamaged and
that it is the proper thickness for the length.See table below.

Up to 15m (50 ft ) 14 1.25mm²
Up to 30m (100 ft ) 10 1.5mm²
6. Before plugging in,make sure that the switch lock is OFF.
WARM-UP
In cold weather,warm up unit for 30~60 seconds so that the
hydraulic oil reaches the proper viscosity.Pull trigger-switch to
extend piston and release when it has reached its full stroke.Repeat
15~20 times.
POINTS OF ATTENTION
1. Do not cover air vents.
CARE: If events are covered,motor will overheat and may
burn out.
2. If hydraulic oil exceeds 70.( (158.F) in temperature, power
will drop. Allow unit to cool before resuming operation.(Be
particularly careful in summer, when the aluminum pump case
heats up quicker.)
3. If a drop in power is observed and motor is unusually hot,
check carbon-Brushes.
OPERATION
The NRB-32 is primarily intended to straighten deformed rebar. It
can or course , also be used to bend straight rebar.
To enable the unit to be used in confined spaces, there are two
operating modes: PUSH & PULL. The mode is selected by
moving the mode control lever to the appropriate position.
“A” for push (piston advances) and “B” for pull (piston retracts) in
either mode, simply press the switch to move the piston.
NB: The movement of the piston is limited by a safety valve. To
prevent overheating , release the trigger switch when the piston has
reached its travel limit.
TO PUSH
Advance or retract the piston so that the hook is in a suitable starting
position . Set the mode control lever to “A” and fit the rebar as shown
at the left. Pull the trigger switch until the rebar is at the desired
angle.
TO PULL
Set the hook in the correct starting position, make sure that the mode
control lever is in the “B” position and fit the rebar as illustrated . Pull
the trigger switch until the desired angle is attained.
NB: It is important that the rebar be properly fitted in the hook and
against the rollers.
INTERIOR ANGLE
Since the piston stroke is limited , interior straightening/bending
angle will vary according to rebar diameter and operating mode.
Refer to the table below.
