2. Segurtasun-argibideak
Always observe the following safety precautions when using the VEVOR CT-612 Manual Pipe Bender:
- Irakurri eskuliburua: Familiarize yourself with all instructions and warnings before operation.
- Babes-ekipoak jantzi: Always wear safety glasses to protect against flying debris. Gloves are recommended for better grip and hand protection.
- Tresna ikuskatu: Before each use, check the pipe bender for any signs of damage, wear, or loose parts. Do not use a damaged tool.
- Lan-pieza segurua: Ensure the pipe is properly seated and secured in the bending groove to prevent slippage and injury.
- Maintain a Stable Stance: Use the tool on a stable surface and maintain good balance to prevent accidents.
- Gehiegi makurtzea saihestu: Do not attempt to bend pipes beyond their material limits or the tool's 180-degree capacity, as this can damage the pipe or the tool.
- Pipe Wall Thickness: This tool is suitable for pipes with a wall thickness of 0.5 mm to 1.2 mm. Bending pipes thinner than 0.5 mm may cause damage or kinking.
- Mantendu garbi: Keep hands and fingers away from pinch points during operation.
- Gorde seguru: Store the tool in a dry, secure place, out of reach of children and unauthorized users.

5. Konfigurazioa
Before beginning any bending operation, ensure your workspace is clean, well-lit, and free from obstructions. No assembly is required for the VEVOR CT-612 Manual Pipe Bender.
- Select the Correct Former: Identify the appropriate bending groove on the tool that matches the outer diameter of your pipe (1/4", 3/8", or 1/2").
- Prestatu hodia: Ensure the pipe is clean, free of burrs, and cut to the desired length. Mark the bending point on the pipe if necessary.
- Adjust the Movable Hook: Position the movable hook to align with the chosen bending groove.
6. Funtzionamendu-argibideak
Follow these steps for safe and effective pipe bending:
- Insert the Pipe: Carefully insert the pipe into the selected bending groove and under the movable hook. Ensure the pipe is snug and properly aligned with the alignment marks on the tool.
- Position for Bending: Adjust the pipe so that the desired bending point aligns with the center of the bending former.
- Aplikatu indarra: Hold both handles firmly. Apply steady, even pressure to the handles, slowly bringing them together. The pipe will begin to bend around the former.
- Monitor the Angle: Observe the angle scales on the tool to achieve the desired bend angle (from 0° to 180°). Bend slowly to prevent kinking or deformation.
- Release the Pipe: Once the desired angle is reached, release the pressure on the handles and carefully remove the bent pipe from the tool.

7. Mantentzea
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your pipe bender:
- Garbiketa: After each use, wipe down the tool with a clean, dry cloth to remove any dust, dirt, or metal shavings.
- Lubrifikazioa: Periodically apply a light coat of machine oil to the pivot points and moving parts to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust.
- Ikuskapena: Regularly inspect the bending formers, handles, and movable hook for wear, damage, or deformation. Replace any worn or damaged parts immediately.
- Biltegiratzea: Store the pipe bender in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Keep it away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
8. Arazoak
Hona hemen arazo ohikoenetako batzuk eta haien irtenbide posibleak:
| Arazoa | Kausa posiblea | Irtenbidea |
|---|---|---|
| Pipe kinks or flattens during bending. | Incorrect pipe size selected, pipe wall too thin, bending too fast, or pipe material is too soft/hard. | Ensure the correct former size is used. Verify pipe wall thickness is between 0.5-1.2 mm. Bend slowly and steadily. Consider using a pipe filler for very soft materials if kinking persists. |
| Bend angle is inaccurate. | Pipe not properly aligned, angle scale misread, or inconsistent pressure applied. | Ensure pipe is aligned with marks. Read the angle scale carefully. Apply consistent, even pressure throughout the bend. |
| Difficulty in bending. | Pipe material is too thick or too hard for manual bending, or tool requires lubrication. | Check pipe specifications against tool capacity. Apply lubricant to pivot points. For very hard materials, a different bending method may be required. |
| Tool feels stiff or squeaks. | Lubrifikazio falta, zikinkeria pilatzea. | Clean the tool thoroughly and apply a light machine oil to all moving parts. |
