Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the clamp is clean and free of debris.
- Position the clamp onto the workpiece, aligning the jaws where pressure is needed.
- Turn the threaded screw clockwise to tighten the clamp, applying steady pressure until the workpiece is secured.
- Turn the threaded screw counter-clockwise to release the clamp.
Compatibility:
These G-clamps are generally compatible with a wide range of materials including wood, metal, plastic, and composites, provided the material can withstand the clamping pressure without damage. The 70mm throat depth is suitable for objects up to this dimension from the edge.
Care:
- Keep the clamp clean and dry when not in use to prevent rust.
- Periodically apply a light coat of oil to the threaded screw to ensure smooth operation and prevent seizing.
- Inspect the swivel tip and screw threads for wear or damage before each use.
- Store in a dry environment.
