Unpacking and Setup
Cleanup
Exposed metal surfaces, including upper and
lower wheels, are coated with a protectant to
resist corrosion during shipment. Remove this
coating with a soft rag and a solvent or cleaner-
degreaser. Some parts may need to be removed
for thorough cleaning. Do not use gasoline,
acetone, lacquer thinner or other highly volatile
solvents, as these will damage painted surfaces.

Site Considerations
Floor Stability – Refer to the weight and footprint
specifications for the machine. Residential floors
may require additional reinforcement to support
both machine and operator.

Operating Clearances – When establishing a
location for your machine, consider existing and
anticipated needs, size of workpiece to be
processed, space for auxiliary stands, work
tables or other machinery that may be present.

Securing to Floor
Mounting the machine to the floor is strongly
recommended (floor mounting hardware is not
included). Lag shield anchors with lag bolts and
anchor studs are recommended for anchoring to
a concrete floor. Research mounting methods
and choose one that best fits your application.

Operation
Overview
As the metal workpiece is rolled between the
upper wheel and lower wheel, it becomes longer
and thinner. At the same time, a track is pressed
into the metal, creating a convex curve in the
workpiece.

and thinner. At the same time, a track is pressed
into the metal, creating a convex curve in the
workpiece.
A variety of contours can be produced by
varying the amount and pattern of the tracks.
The English wheel can produce curves in mild
steel up to 16 gauge (0.06"), copper up to 16
gauge (0.05") and aluminum up to 1/8".
