Rebar Adjustment Bolt
For Model JB5090, JB7090, JB8090
The rebar bender may require adjustment in order to obtain a
90° bend. Adjustment is necessary due to inconsistencies in the
rebar produced by steel mills and because each bender is
capable of handling multiple diameters of rebar.
1. Use a 19 MM socket to loosen the bolt and a 24 MM
socket to loosen the locknut (Figure 17) until the adjust-
able block can be slid easily in the crescent groove on
the side of the rebar. Note: there is no need to remove the
hardware.
2. Insert a piece of the rebar to be used into the machine
to assist in positioning the adjustable stop.
3. Slide the adjustable stop towards the rebar (away from
the hydraulic ram) until it makes contact with the rod.
4. Back the adjustable stop off the rebar slightly so the rod
can pass easily through the machine without binding.
5. Tighten the hardware securely , connect the bender to
the pump and make a test bend. You should now be able
to attain the desired bending angle. If the desired bend is
not attained, repeat the process until the desired result
is achieved.
