Clarke 6560000 SBR305 3 in 1 Sheet Metal Machine F.A.Q.

How do I change the bending angle on the Clarke 6560000 SBR305 3 in 1 Sheet Metal Machine Bender?

To change the bending angle, adjust the angle stop settings on the machine. Loosen the lock nuts and set the desired angle using the protractor scale provided. Once set, re-tighten the lock nuts to secure the angle configuration.

What is the maximum sheet thickness the Clarke 6560000 can handle?

The Clarke 6560000 SBR305 is capable of handling sheet metal with a maximum thickness of 1.0 mm for mild steel. Ensure not to exceed this limit to avoid damage to the machine.

How do I perform routine maintenance on the Clarke 6560000 SBR305?

Routine maintenance includes cleaning the machine after each use, lubricating moving parts periodically with a light machine oil, and checking for loose bolts or worn parts to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

What should I do if the machine is not bending evenly?

If the machine is not bending evenly, check the calibration of the bending dies and ensure they are properly aligned. Also, verify that the sheet metal is correctly positioned and the clamping mechanism is securely tightened.

Can the machine be used for bending non-ferrous metals?

Yes, the Clarke 6560000 SBR305 can be used for bending non-ferrous metals such as aluminum and copper, provided they are within the machine's maximum thickness specifications.

How do I troubleshoot if the roller is not feeding the sheet metal correctly?

Ensure that the rollers are clean and free from debris. Check the roller alignment and adjust the pressure settings as needed. Make sure the sheet metal is correctly inserted without any obstructions.

What safety precautions should I take while using this machine?

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as gloves and safety glasses. Ensure the machine is on a stable surface and keep hands and loose clothing away from moving parts during operation.

How can I ensure precise cutting with the Clarke 6560000?

To ensure precise cutting, regularly check and calibrate the cutting blade. Use a guide or straight edge for consistent alignment, and apply even pressure throughout the cut.

Are there any specific storage recommendations for the machine?

Store the machine in a dry, clean environment to prevent rust and corrosion. Cover it with a protective sheet to keep dust and debris away when not in use.

What should I do if I hear unusual noises during operation?
