OPERATION

Your sawhorse is capable of helping around the jobsite in 

a variety of ways. From supporting material to creating a 

temporary table, there are many uses where your sawhorse 

can be a trusty companion. Below are only a few examples.

MATERIAL SUPPORT ON WORKTOP

When needing to cut longer workpieces without a table 

present, a workpiece can be supported by two sawhorses. 

Make sure that the workpiece is properly supported and cut 

the piece outside of where it is supported by the sawhorse. 

Never cut the workpiece in between the sawhorses. This 

can lead to poor workpiece finish cuts and possible injury 

to the user (Fig. 4).

MATERIAL SUPPORT ON SUPPORT PEGS

Your sawhorse is equipped with material support pegs (Fig. 

5 - 1) that can fold out to support material for cutting or for 

storage. If using the support pegs to support material for 

a cut, be careful to avoid cutting into the sawhorse’s side 

brackets.

JOBSITE TABLE

A quick and sturdy worktable can be made by joining the 

power of two WA1300 sawhorses, a couple of 2x4s, and 

some plywood.

To create the table, insert two 2x4s of similar length (Fig. 

6 - 1) into the sawhorses’ side brackets (Fig. 6 - 2), span-

ning the two sawhorses. Place a sheet of plywood over the 

2x4s and sawhorses, ensuring that the plywood is fully sup-

ported on all sides. Screw or nail the plywood into the 2x4s 

for an extra sturdy table.
