ORIGINAL ENGLISH HYDRAULIC DENT RAISER
The Finest Professional Gunsmith Dent Raiser Made
We are pleased to be able to provide these beautiful, original
pattern, British-made Hydraulic Dent Raisers. For the gunsmith,
these Dent Raisers have proven to be one of the most sought
after tools in our line. Few jobs are a greater challenge - or cause
more customer concern - than removing a dent from a prize
shotgun.
To be able to remove such a damaging blemish with the ease,
precision and perfection that this tool provides is gratifying beyond
words. A tool you want to own ... A tool to cherish and care for.
Not only will it make your customers happy, but it will also prove to
be profitable for you at the same time!
Actually, the dent raiser is a hydraulic jack of tremendous force
with pressure controlled by the Allen screw in the handle. Because
of the pressures involved, the best of steels and heat-treating
procedures have been used in its production to ensure ease of
maintenance and years of trouble-free use.
EASE OF OPERATION
Simple and easy to operate. Hold the tool along the outside of the
barrel, lining up the small anvil in the head even with the center of
the dent. Slide the collar flush against the barrelbreech or muzzle
(whichever end is closer to the dent) and lock the collar tightly into
place.
Now, insert the Dent Raiser into the barrel, bringing the collar flat
against the end of the barrel and centering the anvil in the head
directly under the dent. Gently turn the Allen screw in and watch
the dent come up. When the dent is completely up (you must be
careful not to bulge the barrel because the tool is so powerful),
relieve the hydraulic pressure against the anvil by loosening the
Allen screw. Re-apply pressure until resistance is just felt and you
can turn the tool handle back and forth without too much
pressure. Turn in the Allen screw and twist and burnish. Repeat
until the dent is completely removed.
No outside hammering or peening is required, so no hammer
marks to polish out and no need to reblue the barrel. Just a fast,
Professional job that will bring joy to your customer and fame and
fortune to you! (NOTE: The Hydraulic Dent Raiser
will not remove nicks/gouges in the steel that may have been
caused along with the dent. Careful drawfiling and polishing can
take care of most of these, and rebluing will be required - which
your customer should understand.)
