Greenlee 1818 bender is a manually powered unit used for bending galvanised steel or aluminium conduits, pipes and IMCs (intermediate metallic conduits) having sizes of 1-1/4, 1-1/2, 3/4-2 and 2 inches.
Working Mechanism:
- Rotate the ratchet segment counterclockwise. The friction button should pop out to prevent rotation of the segment in the bend direction.
- Select the type of conduit (marked on the shoe) and bending shoe size.
- Locate the bending shoe on the pivot shaft for aligning the drive pin on the segment with the hole in the shoe.
- Snap spring clips on pivot shafts.
- On the roller pin, mount the cushion roller and insert it into the proper hole.
- Install the conduit in the bender on the align & shoe bending marks, with the front edge of the hook.
- Lower the ratchet handle to the horizontal position and rotate the bend control handle to the bend position.
- Ratchet the bending shoe to the desired angle and rotate the ratchet handle to the Up position. Doing this will automatically move the bend control handle to the release position.
- By rotating the ratchet handle down to the bending position, apply bend pressure till the lock pawl releases.
- Once a click occurs, rotate the ratchet handle to the Up position.
- The segment and shoe must be rotated for removing the bent conduit.
