Troubleshooting
Unit feels unstable
Ensure all legs are fully extended and locked into position. Check that the anti-slip rubber feet are making firm contact with the ground and are not worn. Distribute weight evenly on the work surface.
Clamping mechanism not holding securely
Verify that the swivel pegs are correctly inserted and the jaws are aligned. Ensure the workpiece is positioned properly within the jaw retention grooves. Tighten the clamping handle firmly.
