treadle,
the work clamp is raised. Then the work
is
placed
into
the
machine
with
the
front
end
of

marking should be placed exactly in the middle under the work clamp.
When the left treadle is released, the work clamp is again lowered onto

Upon lifting the work clamp, lifting lever L is pulled between the vertical

lower
end
of
locking lever S so

the machine
cannot
be
started
accidentally while the work clamp is
raised
