5. Setup
Follow these steps to prepare your rebar bender for operation.
- Unpacking: Carefully remove the rebar bender and all accessories from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Report any damage immediately to the supplier.
- Work Area Preparation: Set up the tool on a stable, level surface. Ensure adequate space around the tool for safe operation and rebar handling. Keep the area clear of debris.
- Power Connection: Connect the power cord to a suitable 1200W power supply. Ensure the voltage matches the tool's requirements (typically 110V or 220V, check nameplate). Use a grounded outlet.
- Initial Check: Before connecting power, ensure the starting switch is in the "OFF" position. Once connected, briefly press the switch to confirm basic motor function without rebar.
6. Operation
The rebar bender can perform both bending and straightening functions.
6.1. Bending Rebar
- Select Bending Head: Ensure the appropriate bending head is installed for your desired rebar diameter and bending angle.
- Position Rebar: Place the rebar into the pliers mouth, ensuring it is firmly seated against the bending pin and the jaw clamp seat. The bending point should align with the tool's bending mechanism.
- Initiate Bend: Press the starting switch. The hydraulic piston will extend, bending the rebar. Monitor the bending process carefully.
- Achieve Desired Angle: The tool can bend rebar from 0° to 90°. Release the starting switch once the desired angle is achieved.
- Release Pressure: Turn the manual pressure relief valve to release hydraulic pressure. The piston will retract, and the rebar can be removed.

6.2. Straightening Rebar
The rebar bender can also function as a rebar straightener by replacing the head frame.
- Replace Head Frame: Disconnect power. Carefully remove the bending head frame and install the straightening head frame. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- Position Rebar: Insert the bent rebar into the straightening head.
- Initiate Straightening: Press the starting switch. The tool will apply pressure to straighten the rebar.
- Achieve Desired Straightness: The tool can straighten rebar to an angle of ≥110°. Release the starting switch once the rebar is sufficiently straightened.
- Release Pressure: Turn the manual pressure relief valve to release hydraulic pressure and remove the straightened rebar.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your rebar bender. Always disconnect the power before performing any maintenance.
- Cleaning: After each use, clean the tool to remove any dust, dirt, or rebar fragments. Use a dry cloth or soft brush. Do not use solvents that could damage plastic parts.
- Hydraulic Oil Check: Periodically check the hydraulic oil level through the hydraulic oil filling port. If the level is low, refill with recommended hydraulic oil. Consult a qualified technician if unsure.
- Carbon Brush Inspection: Inspect the carbon brushes regularly (e.g., every 50-100 hours of operation). Replace them if they are worn down to their limit mark to prevent motor damage.
- Lubrication: Apply a small amount of grease to moving parts and pivot points as needed to ensure smooth operation.
- Storage: Store the rebar bender in a clean, dry, and secure location when not in use. Protect it from moisture and extreme temperatures.
8. Troubleshooting
Refer to this section for common issues and their potential solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Tool does not start | No power supply; Damaged power cord; Faulty switch; Worn carbon brushes. | Check power connection; Inspect power cord; Test switch; Replace carbon brushes. |
| Slow bending/straightening speed | Low hydraulic oil level; Air in hydraulic system; Overloaded motor; Worn pump. | Check/refill hydraulic oil; Bleed air from system (consult technician); Do not exceed capacity; Consult technician for pump repair. |
| Incomplete bend/straighten | Rebar diameter too large; Insufficient hydraulic pressure; Incorrect head frame. | Ensure rebar is within specified range (16-25mm); Check hydraulic system; Verify correct head frame for bending/straightening. |
| Hydraulic fluid leakage | Loose fittings; Damaged seals. | Tighten fittings; Replace damaged seals (consult technician). |
