    Would love to know where you can get them fixed as every time we send benders back we are told cheaper to replace with new .......and we got 7 install teams so over the years thats lot of benders.

    Take them to bits and see what seals they have, expect you would be able to get one online or at a hydraulic place.
    Mostly found in Oxfordshire, UK :)

    Teach your men to bend with lever arm benders instead of the crossbows. Much cheaper to replace and generally don't break. We use them up to 3/4 then jump on hilmor stand ups.

    I have repaired a set before, the seals etc are standard hydraulic stuff as you suggested
