CLAMPING THE WORKPIECE

See Figures 8 - 9.
Always support the workpiece before releasing the foot pedal
to prevent the workpiece from falling off the work station.
 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.
 Place the workpiece between the fixed clamp and sliding
clamp with an equal amount of the workpiece on each
side of the work station.
 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 1/2 inch.
 Slide the lock/unlock latch down to lock the sliding clamp
against the workpiece.
 Step on the foot pedal repeatedly 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.
