Clamping on one side of the jaw
Large workpieces or workpieces with a different shape can in some cases only be fixed on one side of the jaws. Avoid excessive use of clamping force.

Clamping square workpieces
The jaw pads (2, 3) are equipped with horizontal and vertical grooves for clamping square tubes and angled workpieces.

Clamping large objects
(clamping range> 450 mm)
For clamping large workpieces, the moving jaw can be reversed so that the clamping range is increased to 956 mm:

Slide the moving jaw (4) out of the rail.
Turn the moving jaw 180° and slide the jaw back into the rail.
The clamping range between 450 mm and 500 mm must be bridged by means of a spool of at least 50 mm wide, for example a piece of wood or similar solid material.

Warning: When clamping workpieces up to the maximum clamping range, the workpiece must rest on the moving jaw and remain parallel.
Ensure sufficient stability when working with long or large workpieces. The two front legs are provided with holes with which the front legs can be attached to the ground by means of screws or clamps for better stability.

Tips:

*  Use a soft material between the workpiece and the jaws if necessary to prevent damage to the workpiece.

Do not apply too much pressure on the workpiece.
Ensure that the workpiece is in balance.
