How can you control hammer-off-dolly straightening?

What will be an ideal response?


You can control hammer-off-dolly straightening by:

-Altering how hard you hit the panel. Start out with light blows and then increase their force as needed to lower high spots in the panel.
-Changing how hard to push the dolly against the back of the panel. Pushing harder tends to increase lifting action to raise low spots.
-Adjusting how far away the dolly is from the hammer blows. Moving the dolly further away tends to spread out the lowering-raising force to a larger area on the panel. Moving the dolly next to the hammer blow tends to concentrate the effect of the lowering/raising force.
