Note:The method for creating a specific radius is
a trial-and-error process. Due to the many varia-
tions among metal workpieces, no single position-
ing will create the same curve on all materials. We
recommend using scrap pieces the same dimen-
sions and material as your final workpiece until the
desired curve is achieved.

Note: Since the rear roller on the Model
G5770 does not lower completely out of the
path of the workpiece, a slight bend may
be created. Flipping the workpiece between
passes minimizes the bending effect.
The main rollers of this
machine present a pinch-
ing hazard. Make sure no
body part or clothing is
near the area between the
rollers. Failure to follow this
warning may result in fin-
gers, hair, or clothing being
pulled into the machine,
causing personal injury.
