Operating Procedure:-

Simple straight line bends in Thermo Plastic sheet material up to 3mm in thickness can be obtained with heat mask removed. For thicker materials up to 6mm in thickness use adjustable heat mask. This determines size of bend and additional height provides better heat penetration and prevents burning or blistering.
Thicker materials should be turned over during heating process to give even penetration resulting in clean neat bends.
The best method for bending thicker material is where two strip heaters are available. One can be placed upside down above the other to form a heat sandwich which heats both sides of the project simultaneously.
It should be noted that where it is necessary to use the adjustable heat mask at narrow setting for long periods it can become quite hot and under these conditions should be handled with care.
