3. Cutter Replacement
After following the steps for "1. Inspect the cutter and grip
rubber" (steps (1) through (5)), follow the instructions below.
Replace the upper and lower cutters as one set.
(1) Using the included hexagonal bar wrench, remove the
hexagon socket bolt and then remove the upper and
lower cutters.
Pushing the cutter guard upwards makes it easier to
remove the upper cutter. (Fig. 20)
Prying with a fl athead screwdriver will make it easier to
remove the lower cutter. (Fig. 21)
(2) Clean away the iron fi lings attached around the cutter
installation area (Fig. 22)
WARNING
Wear protective goggles.
(3) Align the hole of the cutter with the position of the pin and
attach the cutter.
Using the included hexagonal bar wrench, fi rmly tighten
the hexagon socket bolt to secure the cutter.
Exchange the hexagon socket bolt with the new one
included with the cutter. (Fig. 23)
(4) Attach the battery and battery cover (Fig. 10)
HOW TO USE (BENDING)
1. Normal bending procedure
WARNING
○ Note that the unit is not a hand-held tool. Be absolutely
sure to use the unit only after placing it on a stable spots
such as fl oor, ground, etc.
○ Never bring your hand close to the bending roller during
operation.
○ Never bend any materials other than the rebars. If you
attempt to do so, the material can splinter into pieces
and scatter.
○ Bend less than every 3 pieces of rebar with a 10 mm
diameter, less than every 2 pieces with a 12 mm
diameter, and every 1 piece with a 16 mm diameter.
○ Remember that the cutter moves even during the
bending operation, thereby, close the cutter cover
without fail. (Fig. 24)
○ Begin operation only after making
sure that there are no people within
the turning range of the material to be
bent.
○ Reserve an extra length of at least
200 mm on the bending length of the
rebar to be bent. (Fig. 26)
If the extra length is not long enough, the rebar can
come off during bending operation, or it can break into
fragments and scatter dangerously.
○ Place the rebar on the center plate and set it so that it is
horizontal with the turntable surface.
If the side that is to be bent is set inclined upward, the
rebar can come loose from the bending roller while
bending causing it to fl y off .
○ When bending multiple rebars at one time, some may
come off the bending roller and guide, etc., and therefore
exercise caution and set them horizontally.
○ If you bend the rebar with a large angle
while placing your hand onto it, there is a
fear of getting your hand caught in by the
fold-back reaction of the rebar.
place your hand onto the position where
the rebar may fold back.
(1) Remove battery cover and battery (Fig. 5-a)
(2) Make sure the switch lock is in the lock position. (Fig. 17)
(3) Position the tool so that the turn table is facing upwards
(4) Make sure the cutter's cover is closed (Fig. 24)
(5) Attach the battery and battery cover (Fig. 5-b)

Although the bend angle is the same on the dial, the
angle will slightly change depending on the rebar's
thickness.
Adjust the angle in accordance with the size color on the
setting dial.

Even at the same dial setting position, the bending angle
can sometimes diff er if the diameter or hardness of the

guideline.

Even after the rebar is bent, the motor will reverse-rotate
and the roller will return to position while the switch is
pulled.
When the roller begins returning to position, it will
continue to do so even if the switch is released.
(See "[OPERATION]; 1. Switch operation")
In addition to "bending according to dial setting", this
tool uses a variable speed switch to allow the bending of
rebars according to "visual estimation".
After steps (1) through (5) of "1. Normal bending
procedure" have been completed, follow the instructions
below.

The roller will move as long as the switch is pulled. Little
by little, pull the switch a few times to adjust until the
desired angle is reached.
Press the Manual Mode switch to slightly reverse-rotate
the bending roller. (Fig. 28)
If the desired bending angle Ⓡ is reached, go to step (5).
If the angle requires more bending, press the Manual
Mode switch to return to normal rotation and bend a little
more.) (Fig. 29) (Fig. 30

When using this product, place it in a stable position on
fl oor or ground.
At the center of the tool is a hole for securing the unit in
place and a screw hole located on the notch part of the
inner cover.
Use these holes to secure the tool to a work bench or
other location. (Bolt size: M10) (Fig. 31)
