Note: DO NOT attempt to shear hardened or stainless steel. You will damage or break your shear blades!

Assembly and Mounting

To assemble and mount your shear, do these steps:

1.Secure the handle to the plate shear assembly using the included hex bolts and flat washers, as shown in the parts diagram on the next page.

2.Place the shear on the workbench, and use the holes in the base as a guide for drilling and attaching the shear to the workbench.

3.We recommend using through bolts (hex bolts that go through the workbench and are secured from the other side with flat washers and hex nuts) if possi- ble. If it is not possible to use through bolts, use lag screws with flat washers and fasten the lag screws directly into the workbench.

Basic Operation

To perform basic shearing operations, do these steps:

Shears.

The shear blades are very sharp! Keep body parts away from the cutting area, or serious injury may result!

Note: If the material seems too thick or too hard, do not force the shear! Instead, use a metal-cutting bandsaw to cut the workpiece.

1.Raise the threaded stop if needed to allow room for the workpiece.

2.Turn the stop so the stop pad if firmly pressing the workpiece against the lower blade.

3.With slow and even pressure, pull the handle down to cut the workpiece.

Maintenance

Always keep blades lubricated with a light oil.

Keep pivot points tight.

Check mounting fasteners and all shear hardware before every use for loose or worn components.
