This document is an operation manual for a Slip Roll machine, available in two models: W01-2422 (24") and W01-4022 (40"). The manual provides specifications, safety instructions, assembly and adjustment procedures, operation guidelines, a parts list, and an assembly drawing.

The primary function of the Slip Roll machine is to form metal sheets into rolls or rings. It achieves this by passing the metal plate between a series of shafts, which gradually bend the material into the desired curvature. The machine is designed for industrial use, as indicated by warnings against using small tools for large industrial tasks and the emphasis on proper attire and safety equipment.

Important Technical Specifications:

Model	Max. Thickness	Max. Width	Roller Diameter	Packing Size	Net Weight
W01-2422	0.8mm	610mm	38mm	95x27x38cm	30kg
W01-4022	0.8mm	1000mm	50mm	148x35x50cm	86kg

These specifications highlight the capacity of the machines, with the W01-4022 model offering a wider working width and larger roller diameter, suitable for larger projects, and consequently being heavier. Both models share the same maximum thickness capacity of 0.8mm, indicating their suitability for relatively thin sheet metal.

Usage Features:

The Slip Roll machine is designed for ease of use and adjustability to accommodate different rolling requirements.

Forming Rolls: To form a metal roll, the steel plate is inserted between Shaft 1 (#8) and Shaft 2 (#20). The Handle (#23) is then rotated to initiate the rolling process. The diameter of the formed roll can be precisely adjusted by turning the Adjusting Bolts (#22). Turning them clockwise decreases the diameter, while turning them counterclockwise increases it.
Removing Finished Rolls: Once a roll is formed, it can be removed by pulling out Sleeve (#10) on the end of Shaft 1 (#8) and swinging Shaft 1 out of the Right Stand. This allows for easy extraction of the finished workpiece.
Forming Rings: The machine also features half-round slots on the right side of Shaft 2 (#20) and Shaft 3 (#7), specifically designed for forming rings of various dimensions. Users insert the steel into these slots and rotate the Handle (#23) to create the metal ring.
Shaft Adjustment: The distance between Shaft 1 (#8) and Shaft 2 (#20) can be adjusted using Adjusting Bolts (#35). Similarly, the distance between Shaft 1 (#8) and Shaft 3 (#7) can be adjusted using Adjusting Bolts (#22). These adjustments are crucial for controlling the curvature and tightness of the rolls and rings.
Shaft Removal: Shaft 1 (#8) can be removed if necessary for maintenance or specific operations. This involves removing Sleeve (#10), loosening Hex Bolt (#3) on the Left Stand, and pulling the right end of Shaft 1 outward. Remounting follows the reverse procedure.

Maintenance Features:

The manual emphasizes several key maintenance practices to ensure the longevity and safe operation of the Slip Roll machine.

Regular Cleaning: Keeping the work area clean is paramount, as cluttered areas can lead to injuries. The shafts (1, 2, and 3) should be kept clean and free of metal debris to ensure smooth operation and prevent damage.
Lubrication: The manual instructs users to follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories, implying that regular lubrication of moving parts is necessary to reduce friction and wear.
Inspection of Damaged Parts: Before each use, the machine should be thoroughly checked for any damaged parts. This includes inspecting for alignment issues, binding of moving parts, breakage, and other conditions that might affect its operation. Any damaged parts should be repaired or replaced by an authorized service center, unless otherwise specified.
Proper Storage: When not in use, the tools should be locked up in a dry location to inhibit rust. Storing the machine out of reach of children is also recommended for safety.
Use of Correct Parts: When servicing the machine, only identical replacement parts should be used. Furthermore, only accessories specifically intended for use with this tool should be employed.

Safety Precautions:

The manual includes a comprehensive list of safety instructions that users must adhere to:

Keep the work area clean and well-lit, avoiding damp or wet conditions.
Keep children away from the work area.
Store idle equipment securely and out of reach of children.
Use the right tool for the job; do not force small tools or use tools for unintended purposes.
Dress properly, avoiding loose clothing or jewelry, and wearing non-skid footwear and protective hair covering.
Always use approved eye protection (impact goggles).
Secure work using clamps or a vise to free hands for operation.
Do not overreach; keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Maintain the tool with care, following lubrication and accessory change instructions.
Check for damaged parts before use and repair/replace as needed.
Use only identical replacement parts and intended accessories.
Do not operate the tool under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Never stand on the tool, as it can tip over and cause injury or damage.
Keep hands away from shafts and metal plate during operation.
Do not attempt to form rolls from materials other than those specified.

The manual also includes a detailed parts list with descriptions and quantities for each component, along with an assembly drawing to aid in understanding the machine's construction and for troubleshooting or repair purposes. The final note indicates that the manual is for reference and that changes to the machines may occur without prior notice due to continuous improvement.
