PRODUCT OPERATION
Note: Every 1" of width requires approximately 40lb (18kg) on the handle. (e.g. a 4" wide plank requires 160lb
(72kg) to cut, 5" wide plank requires 200lb (90kg) to cut.)
Please note: Approved materials may vary in density
and hardness. If extreme pressure is required to cut
a product, it may result in damage to your machine.
Please contact MARSHALLTOWN before proceeding.
Warranty is void if an unapproved product damages
the machine.
MAKING CUTS
The Magnum Edge Hardwood Shear is operated manually. The two-part extendable handle is grasped by the
operator and pushed down to make a cut.

Cam-Lock (A) in and down.

45 DEGREE CUTS
Firmly lift the friction-fit fence to remove it from the table and press back down in the appropriate 45-degree position.
NOTE: This image is for the Marksman. Your shear may look slightly different.
ADJUSTMENTS
The blade should be set so it cuts into the plastic blade stop (D)
when the handle is pressed down.
To set the blade depth, rotate the two large nuts (E) on the
underside of the base with a 11/2" (38mm) wrench.
Ensure that both are turned an equal amount.
Adjust in 1/4 turn increments and check to see how deep the blade is set.
To open the blade to cut 1" material, loosen the Back Stop Knob (F)
and rotate the Back Stop (G) up.
