Missing Bend in MachFive 3

I can't find anywhere the part bender range value in MachFive 3. There should be easy way to access that setting. Where???
In M5 2 it's in upper right corner among other performance settings (amount of voices, glide etc).
Please, help!

click the pitch knob in the oscillator section of the edit panel.
You'll see the pitch bend connection in the modulation matrix.
Adjust the depth of this connection.

Thanks, hugy, this helps a lot.
Now, to get a bit further: Can I unlink bender somehow, so i could get i.e. 2 up and 12 down? Tried to figure out mapping but it's at this point too sophisticated for me :O

Yes you can. It's trickier to do though.

What you need to do is to apply a mapper to this connection that will remap the input range of the pitch bend to this uneven output.

Click the mapper icon (the one on the left of the depth knob)

Add a mapper, change the range to [-12; 2]
Right click in the region where the bar are drawn and select
Presets > Ramps > Ramp Up
Close the mapper window.
Change the depth knob to 1 (otherwise it will double the range of the mapper leading to [-24; 4] semitones)

And voila !

Thanks again. Now I'm out of stupid questions; time to play!
