5. CLAMPING ON ONE SIDE OF THE JAW
Sometimes, large or awkward workpieces can
only be clamped on one side of the jaws. In
this case, be sure to avoid excessive clamping
force.
6. CLAMPING SQUARE PIECES
VERTICALLY (See Fig. N)
Sometimes, tubing or other square (steel,
aluminum or other) workpieces need to be
clamped vertically on the center of the jaws.
The hole on the base plate under the jaw
accommodates pieces up to 6cm in width.
7. CLAMPING LARGE OBJECTS
[440mm-880mm] (See Fig. O)
The moving jaw can be reversed to
accommodate large workpieces.
1) Set the Lock/Release switch to the "release"
position and ensure that the foot pedal is
released.
2) Slide the moving jaw fully from its tracks.
3) Rotate the jaw 180°and re-insert it into the
track. (See Fig. O)
WARNING: Whenever clamping
objects with the moving jaw
reversed, ensure the workpiece sits
down onto the sliding jaw, and is parallel
to it. Avoid clamping workpieces at the
top of the jaws (with a gap between the
workpiece and the base of the moving
jaw) as excessive pedal pressure could
damage the unit.
NOTE: Some operations such as hand sawing
or planing exert enough pressure to cause the
JAWHORSE
to slide. In these situations, it is
®
acceptable to hold the JAWHORSE
by standing on the foot plate.
When clamping large or heavy materials,
provide outboard support. Never step on
the foot plate to prevent JAWHORSE
tipping over, especially when using power
tools. (See Fig. P1, P2)
8. CLAMPING SQUARE TUBING (See Fig. Q)
Clamp square tubing or similar material either
on the diagonal or flat side. Use the jaws to
securely hold your material.

9. REMOVING THE JAW FACINGS
(See Fig. R)
The jaw facings (11) can be removed to
achieve a greater clamping range, replace if
worn or damaged, or when fitting the optional
jaws.
OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES
1. CHAIN SAW JAW (See Fig. S-U)
Suitable for gripping logs or poles, and
holding the chain saw for sharpening.
These steel jaws also bolt onto the standard
steel jaws and are zinc plated for corrosion
resistance.
Chain saw clamping blocks pivot back out of
the way when not in use and pivot forward
when required.
Logs or poles up to 254mm in diameter are
gripped firmly for chain sawing, drilling,
rabbeting etc.
The chain saw clamping vice makes an ideal
clamp to hold a chain saw while sharpening
the teeth. Two pairs of vices, either side of the
bar, ensure the clamping jaws are clear of the
chain, which can then be rotated as each tooth
is filed.
2. TOOL TRAY (See Fig. V)
Tool tray provides a convenient place to hold
tools, bits and parts.
