Preparing the pipe-bending set
The following tools are needed: a drill-brace and drills; some spanners (ring spanner nr. 17); a screw-driver; some
adjustable wrenches
Put the wooden frame on an existing bench. The bench must be a very stable one because of the forceful power
needed to bend the pipes. Ensure that there is a free space with a radius of at least 3 metres around point X of the
wooden frame. (see picture below)
Pay attention that there is a free space with a radius of at least 3 metres around
point X of the wooden frame.
Put groundplate E on the indicated place of the wooden frame. The big nut at the bottom of E fits into the
rectangular space in block C. Drill 2 holes through E, and 1 hole through block D (see black arrows). The
drilled holes also perforate blocks C, B and A. By means of fixing bolts, groundplate E and block D are tightly
fastened to the frame. (keep the bolts on top (see photo))
