The Model G7153 Heavy-Duty Universal Bender is shipped from the manufacturer in a carefully packed carton. If you discover the tool is dam- aged after you’ve signed for delivery, please call Customer Service immediately for advice.

Save the containers and all packing materials for possible inspection by the carrier or its agent. Otherwise filing a freight claim can be difficult.

When you are completely satisfied with the con- dition of your shipment, you should inventory its parts.

Refer to the attached parts list and make certain you have all the parts and dies included with this bending tool. If any components are missing, contact Customer Service.

In the event that any non-proprietary parts are missing (e.g. a nut or a washer), we would be glad to replace them, or, for the sake of expedi- ency, replacements can be obtained at your local hardware store.

The cast iron and other unpainted parts of the Model G7153 may be coated with a waxy oil that protects them from corrosion during shipment. Remove the protective coating with mineral spir- its and paper towels.

Do not use gasoline or other petroleum based solvents because of their extremely low flash points. Do not use chlorine-based solvents – if you happen to splash some onto a painted surface, you’ll ruin the finish.

Follow the safety rules listed below when working with solvents:

1.Read and follow all directions and warn- ings on the solvent label.

2.Work only in a well ventilated area.

3.Do not work near any type of open flame (e.g., pilot lights, kerosene heaters, and so on).

4.DO NOT smoke while working with flam- mable material.

5.Paper towels from the cleaning process are extremely combustible. Dispose of waste towels so they do not create a fire hazard. Serious personal injury may occur.

MOUNTING

The G7153 Universal Bender must be securely mounted to a solid surface before using. Operating the tool for certain operations will require exerting considerable force on the han- dle, thus it is essential that the tool be mounted to a heavy or immovable work bench or other work surface. Be certain there will be adequate clear- ance for the entire range of motion of the handle with no potential pinch points for the operator’s hands.
