Instructions/handbook required for Hilmor CM35 tube/pipe bender

[Wriggler]

For a Hilmor CM35 tube/pipe bender.

Due to the tube I am trying to bend either kinking or moving I need to see either an instuction manual or handbook.

I've tried looking on the net but so far haven't been able to find anything.

Does anyone have one they could copy for me or know of any online manuals?

Cheers

I've definately seen manuals online.

CAn't remember where but I would only have found them via google.

Had a quick Google, but didn't find the manual either... are you sure it is a Hilmor c35? i only found the type Hilmor cm35...

Sorry, yes it is a cm 35. Trying to type too fast

i have a hilmore bender for conduit. 2o mm and 25mm formers .the bend starts about an inch from the beginning of the former and creeps as its bent round thats normal:. just practice on some old pipe and u will soon learn

Yep very true, Brightspark! Same goes for bending rebar! (steel) just give it some room to bend, but be sure to take notice if you need to measure the bends!
Thanks for editing Woz!

if its kinking you're probably trying to use the wrong aterial - former combination. As for a manual, you're better off doing some test bends and noting how it behaves with the tube so you can predict where to start the bends. &l
