The Ring Roller is a manual roll bender used to form rings, curves, and arcs from flat bar, round bar, or tubing. Operation involves selecting the correct roller set for the material, placing the workpiece between the rollers, and adjusting the top roller downward to apply bending pressure. The operator then turns the crank handle to feed the material through the rollers, gradually tightening the top roller in small increments until the desired radius or ring diameter is achieved.

==Troubleshooting==
 +
 +
*Material slipping - Tighten the top roller adjustment or use a roller set that matches the material profile.
 +
*Uneven bend - Ensure material is fed straight and apply consistent pressure throughout the bend.
 +
*Material kinks - Reduce roller gap increments and make multiple passes instead of one heavy pass.
 +
*Difficulty turning crank - Check for roller lubrication and remove any debris or burrs from rollers.
 +
*Roller wear or damage - Inspect for flat spots or cracks; replace rollers if necessary.
 +
*Inconsistent ring size - Verify roller settings remain unchanged during bending and measure frequently.

The only things that need to be done to maintain the drill press are general cleaning and periodic lubrication of key joints. For details on the lubrication process see the user manual.
