Whether you're working with EMT, IMC, Rigid, or PVC Coated conduit, this chart is your indispensable guide to achieving precise bends with the 855GX.

These specifications provide an overview of the bending capacity, power requirements, and important technical details of the Greenlee 855GX. It is recommended to consult the manufacturer's documentation or official specifications for precise dimensions and weight information.

Here's how you can program a basic bend:

1. Select the desired angle by using the angle selection buttons on the pendant. A single press adjusts the angle by 1°, while holding the button down rapidly increases the angle in 5° increments. Pressing "CLEAR" resets the programmed angle to 0°. The programmed angle remains in memory until cleared, a new angle is selected, or the power is turned off.
2. Press the "BEND" button until the bender stops. It's normal for the bender to slow down before reaching the selected angle. Once the bender stops at the programmed bend, the pendant display blinks twice to indicate the programmed angle. To continue bending, reset the programmed angle with the "CLEAR" button or increase it beyond the actual shoe angle using the angle selection buttons.

The Greenlee 855GX's computer functionality allows you to program and layout bends accurately. Here's how to perform a fully programmed bend:

1. Press the "PROG BEND" button to initiate the programming process.
2. Choose the conduit type on the LCD screen that matches the one you'll be using, or load a saved bend from a USB thumb drive.
3. Select the conduit size on the LCD screen corresponding to your chosen conduit.
4. By pressing the corresponding button, Determine the type of bend you want to make (e.g., stub/kick, offset, saddle, U-bend).
5. Input the dimensions of the bend, such as height, length, and angle, using the buttons on the bender's interface.
6. Press "NEXT" to proceed or "BACK" to return to the previous screen.
7. Place marks on the conduit based on the stated distances.
8. Save the programmed bend to the bender's local memory by pressing "SAVE," or save it to a USB thumb drive by pressing "SAVE USB." Alternatively, press "NEXT" to begin making the programmed bend or "BACK" to return to the previous screen.
9. Load the conduit and align the front of the hook with the first mark. Press the "BEND" button until the bender stops. Repeat the process for subsequent marks until the display shows "BENDING COMPLETE."

By following these steps, you can take full advantage of the Greenlee 855GX's programming capabilities, streamlining your bending process and achieving accurate results.
