USE
Quick slide button (fig. B)
The quick slide button (1) allows the screw (4) to be moved
up and down manually.
Position the material to be clamped between:
- The screw foot (5) and
- The frame foot (6).
Press the quick slide button (1) and allow the screw foot to
contact the material being clamped.
Open/close switch (fig. C)
Use the open/close switch (7) to apply and release the
clamping force.
To apply a clamping force, advance the screw (4) in a
closing direction by pressing the switch in the closing
direction.
To stop the screw (4) advancement, release the switch.
Note: To achieve maximum auto clamping, keep the switch
pressed until the tool stops running. When the tool stops
running, immediately release the switch. Keeping the switch
pressed after the tool stops running will not further increase
the clamping force and may cause damage to the tool and
may shorten the life of the battery. Always be certain that
the material is clamped securely.
To relieve the clamping force, press the switch in the
opening direction.
Note: Always use the open/close switch (7) to release the
clamping force. After reversing the screw and releasing the
clamping force, use the quick slide button (1) and manually
move the screw up. The quick slide button will not work
unless pressure is released first.
Note: If the batteries fail, see using the AutoClamp
manual mode.
Using the AutoClamp
in manual mode (fig. D)
TM
An additional clamping force can be applied manually, if
needed:
Use the open/close switch (7) to apply a clamping force to
the material.
After releasing the close switch, insert the supplied
screwdriver (3) into the recess (2) as shown.
Turn the screwdriver (3) in a clockwise direction to apply
additional clamping force.
To relieve the clamping force after manual clamping, insert
the screwdriver (3) and turn in an anti-clockwise direction.
Warning! Do not apply leverage to the supplied screwdriver in
the form of a pipe or other object to increase clamping force. Do
not use any other tool than the one supplied. Personal injury
and/or damage to the tool could result.
Hints for optimum use
Select the position of clamping to limit stress on the
components being clamped.
Soft or brittle materials may be damaged by the clamping
force. Use scrap materials to test before use. Use packing
pieces to spread the force applied.
Do not clamp pipes or hollow sections that may deform
under the clamping pressure.
Before applying clamping pressure, make sure that the
clamp is at 90 degrees to the workpiece.
Maintenance
Your Black & Decker tool has been designed to operate
over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper
tool care and regular cleaning.
Regularly clean the motor housing using a damp cloth. Do
not use any abrasive or solvent-based cleaner.
Clean debris from the screw (4) using a brush. Do not
lubricate.
