Operating Tips - RIDGID AC9955 Operator's Manual

OPERATION
USING AS AN ANvIL
See Figure 13.
When the rubber clamp pads are removed from both clamps,
the fixed clamp on the work station is strong enough to use
as an anvil for strip metal work. (See "Replacing the Clamp
Pads" in the Maintenance section for pad removal instruc-
tions.)
NOTE: Only the fixed clamp may be used as an anvil. DO
NOT use the sliding clamp as an anvil.
USING AS A PRESS
See Figure 14.
With the lock / unlock latch in the unlock position and the
rubber clamp pads removed (see Maintenance section), the
work station can be used as a press by stepping repeatedly
on the foot pedal.

OPERATING TIPS

 Use the grooves in the clamp pads to securely hold
material such as tubing.
 The easiest way to hacksaw square tubing is on the
diagonal.
 Sharpening a chain saw blade is made easier using two
wooden blocks on either side of the bar thus ensuring
the chain can be rotated as each tooth is filed.
