Mounting and Assembly
1. Place shear on workbench, and use holes in
base to mark drilling location on workbench.
2. Drill mounting holes and attach shear to
workbench with (2) 10mm or
3
⁄8" hex bolts,
hex nuts, and flat washers (not included).
Note: For strongest mounting, we recom-
mend using hex bolts to mount shear to
workbench. Otherwise, fasten directly to
workbench with lag bolts and flat washers.
3. Mount ratchet handle to upper blade shaft
so ratchet turns blade when pressing down
on handle toward front of tool, as shown in
Figure 1.
