The Horizontal Technology adjustable bend housing allows for quick and easy bend angle adjustment from 0 to 3 . Below is the procedure for setting the Horizontal Technology adjustable bend housing.

Refer to the Figure 1 for step 1 and 2:

1 Place the jaws of tongs in the tong areas shown and break the tool joint.
2 While keeping the adjusting ring teeth engaged with the mated slots in the housing two to four complete turns in the clockwise direction(unthread).
Refer to the figure 2 for steps 3 and 4:

3 Slide the adjusting ring down to disengage the teeth in the ring and the offset housing.
4 To adjust the bend angle of the bent housing, rotate the adjusting ring clockwise until the desired bend-angle marking matches the bend-angle making on the offset housing.
Refer to Figure 3 for steps 5 through 7:

5 Engage the teeth of the adjusting ring and the offset housing at the desired bend angle.
6 Apply thread dope to the mated faces of the lock housing and the adjusting ring.
7 Screw the lock housing and the adjusting ring together and apply the torque value listing in Table 2. The matching markings on the OD of the offset housing and the adjusting ring indicate the bend angle selected as well as the high side marks to identity the high side of the tool.
