Ŷ
Lower the right front leg until it rests on the housing. Repeat this
process to lower the left leg.
Ŷ
Place a finger in the foot pedal release and pull up to unlock the
foot pedal.
Ŷ
Lower the foot pedal until it rests on the front legs.
Ŷ
Unlock the rear foot lock lever.
Ŷ
Depress the lower lock button to release the adjustable foot.

Once the rear leg is resting on the housing, slide the rear leg
backwards and lower it onto the foot pedal.
Ŷ
With the rear leg resting on the foot pedal, slide the rear leg
forward into the leg storage hole.
Ŷ
Lock the leg lock lever.
NOTE:
When transporting the product, the rear leg becomes the
carrying handle.
CLAMPING THE WORKPIECE
See Figure 14 - 15.
Always support the workpiece before releasing the foot pedal to
prevent the workpiece from falling off the product.
Ŷ
Loosen the thumbscrew on the side of the sliding clamp.
Ŷ
Place the lock / unlock latch in the unlock position then push the
sliding clamp to open.
NOTE:
When clamping long or heavy materials, always provide
proper support for the workpiece.
Ŷ
Place the workpiece between the fixed clamp and sliding clamp
with it balanced on the product.
Ŷ
Move the sliding clamp until the clamp rests against the workpiece
or step repeatedly on the foot pedal to move the sliding clamp
against the workpiece. Each full stroke of the foot pedal moves
the sliding clamp approximately
13 mm
.
Ŷ
Slide the lock / unlock latch down to lock the sliding clamp against
the workpiece.
Ŷ
Step on the foot pedal until the workpiece has been secured in
place.
NOTE:
Stand on the foot pedal when extra force is needed. DO
NOT jump on the foot pedal as you could damage the product.
UNCLAMPING THE WORKPIECE
See Figure 16.
Always support the workpiece BEFORE unclamping it to prevent the
workpiece from falling off the product.
Ŷ
Pull the lock / unlock latch up to unlock.
Ŷ
Step down on the foot pedal then let the pedal rise releasing the
force on the workpiece.
NOTE:
If you have clamped the workpiece tightly, added pressure
on the foot pedal may be needed to release the workpiece from
the clamps.
Ŷ
Push the sliding clamp toward the rear of the product then
remove the workpiece.
USING ONE SIDE OF THE CLAMP
See Figure 17.
If a large or awkward workpiece can only be clamped on one side of
the clamp, it will be necessary to use a spacer. Place a spacer the same
thickness as the workpiece on the other side of the clamp from the
workpiece to keep clamps from skewing.
CLAMPING WIDE WORKPIECES
See Figure 18 - 19.
The product can support wide workpieces. To clamp a wide workpiece
between 450 mm to 940 mm, it will be necessary to remove the clamp
pads as described in the Maintenance section and place the sliding
clamp in the “reverse position”.
Ŷ
Loosen the thumbscrew on the side of the sliding clamp.
Ŷ
Pull the lock / unlock latch up to unlock.
Ŷ
Push the sliding clamp toward the rear of the product and off
its tracks.
Ŷ
Turn the clamp around (180 degrees).
Ŷ
Slide the clamp back on the tracks.
NOTE:
When clamping long or heavy materials, always provide
proper support for the workpiece.
USING AS A PRESS
See Figure 20.
With the lock / unlock latch in the unlock position and the rubber
clamp pads removed (see Maintenance section), the product can be
used as a press by stepping repeatedly on the foot pedal.
OPERATING TIPS
Ŷ
Use the grooves in the clamp pads to securely hold material such
as tubing.
Ŷ
The easiest way to hacksaw square tubing is from corner to
corner rather than across the flats.
Ŷ
Sharpening a chain saw blade is made easier using two wooden
blocks on either side of the bar thus ensuring the chain can be
rotated as each tooth is filed.
