Bending a 4-point saddle involves shaping a piece of conduit or pipe to fit a particular angle or curve. Here are the steps to follow:
Measure the distance between the two points where the conduit will be anchored.
Mark the midpoint of this distance on the conduit.
Using a protractor or angle finder, determine the angle of the bend you need to make.
Mark the angle on the conduit at the midpoint.
Measure and mark the distance from the midpoint to the first anchor point.
Using a conduit bender, place the conduit in the bender so that the midpoint mark lines up with the bender arrow.
Bend the conduit until the angle mark lines up with the bender arrow.
Measure and mark the distance from the midpoint to the second anchor point.
Flip the conduit over in the bender so that the already bent portion is now facing downward.
Place the conduit back in the bender, aligning the midpoint mark with the bender arrow once again.
Bend the conduit until the mark for the second anchor point lines up with the bender arrow.
Inspect the bend to make sure it is the correct angle and curvature.
Cut off any excess conduit that is not needed.
Attach the conduit to the anchor points using appropriate connectors and fasteners.
Note: The exact method of bending may vary depending on the type of bender being used and the size and type of conduit or pipe. Always refer to the manufacturer's instructions for the specific bender being used.
