3. To remove the tube from the stationary roll,
pull the sleeve outward until it clears the end
bracket; then pivot the roll outward, as
shown in Figure 5.
4. After the tube is removed, reposition the
stationary roll, making sure the sleeve is
pushed back in completely, as shown in
Figure 5.

Bending Wire
There are three wire grooves at the end of the
pinch roll and idler roll, to accommodate a 5/16”,
3/8” and 1/2” wire. See Figure 6.
Use the smallest groove into which the wire will
comfortably fit. Bend the wire using the same
principles as described for forming a radius. To
make a complete loop of wire, use the
instructions for forming a tube.

Maintenance
1. Keep the rolls clean and rust-free, and
periodically apply a light film of oil.
2. Place a few drops of 30W oil into the holes
at each end of the rolls (see Figure 6). Then
operate the machine for a few seconds to
distribute the oil.
3. Apply a light coat of oil to the exposed end
of the stationary roll beneath the sleeve
(shown in Figure 5).
4. Keep the gears lubricated with a good
quality, non-hardening grease. (Remove end
cover to access gears and chain.) Operate
the machine to disperse the grease.
5. Apply a light coat of grease to the pinch roll
and idler roll adjustment screws (see Figure
1).
