CLAMPING THE WORKPIECE
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 po-
sition then push the sliding clamp to open.
NOTE: when clamping long or heavy materials,
always provide proper support for the work-
piece.
• 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
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.

NOTE: if you have clamped
the
workpiece
tightly,
added pressure on the
foot pedal may be needed
to release the workpiece
from the clamps.
• Push the sliding clamp
toward the rear of the
work station then remove
the workpiece.
USING ONE SIDE OF THE CLAMP
If a large or awkward
workpiece can only be
clamped on one side
of the clamps, it will
be necessary to use a
spacer. Place a spacer
the
same
thickness
as the workpiece on
the other side of the
clamps from the work-
piece to keep clamps
from skewing.
CLAMPING WIDE WORKPIECES
The work station can support wide workpieces.
To clamp a wide workpiece (up to 37-1/2 inches
long), it will be necessary to remove the clamp
pads as describe in the mainte- nance section
and place the sliding clamp in the reverse posi-
tion.
• Pull the lock / unlock latch up to unlock.
• Push the sliding clamp toward the rear of the
work station and off its tracks.
• Turn the clamp around (180˚ degrees).
