READ INSTRUCTIONS

• Thoroughly read and understand this manual before using.

• Save for future reference. Thoroughly read and understand this manual

before using. • Save for future reference.

PINCH AND CRUSH HAZARD!

• The Manual Ironworker consists of heavy metal components which can

present a hand/finger pinch hazard and cause potentially serious injuries if

dropped. Avoid pinching hands while handling. The use of safety shoes is

strongly recommended. Keep fingers and hands away from moving parts

when operating.

CUT HAZARD!

• Handling sharp metal can cause serious cuts. Wear thick, well-fitting

work gloves to prevent cuts from handling sharp metal.

EYE INJURY HAZARD!

• Metal particles can be ejected from the tool when bending and cutting.

Sheet metal edges and corners are sharp and can injure eyes.

Always wear ANSI approved eye protection when operating this tool.

• Before beginning ANY work with this tool, it is

absolutely necessary that it be securely bolted to a sturdy workbench

anchored to the

floor or wall.

• Strenuous physical force may need to be applied to the Manual

Ironworker during use. Failure to ensure proper footing can quickly

result in a fall which could inflict serious personal injury or property

damage. Always work in a clean, uncluttered environment.

• Be sure there is sufficient working room around the tool to allow for safe

handling of various sizes of metal.

• The Manual Ironworker was specifically designed to be operated by one

person only. Never have one person operate the

Handle while another feeds the workpiece or serious injury could occur.

• Excessive resistance while operating could indicate a defect with the

workpiece material or broken or damaged Manual Ironworker

components. To avoid injury, stop work immediately and inspect workpiece

material for nicks, dents, welds, excessive scale or

remaining coatings. Clean or repair as necessary or discard and begin with

a new piece. Also inspect Manual Ironworker components

for looseness or damage.

SET-UP

• The Manual Ironworker requires up to several hundred pounds of handle force to

operate and must be securely mounted on a heavy, solid workbench, stand, floor etc.,

capable of holding the static weight of the unit plus the ability to counter the high force

stresses from operation.

• Place the Manual Ironworker over the chosen location then mark mounting hole

locations by tracing holes in the feet.

Check for the presence of electrical, air or other utility lines under the mounting surface

before drilling mounting holes.

The use of 1/2” x 4” through bolts & nuts or longer lag screws with substantial washers

and attachment to a structural member is absolutely necessary.

• The Manual Ironworker is shipped with the actuating

Arm in the downward position (FIG 1) requiring some partial disassembly and

reassembly as follows:

- Using a ¼” Drift or Punch, drive out the partially inserted Roll

Pins and set aside for reinstallation (FIG 2).

FIG. 2

- Remove the Pivot Pin (FIG 3) then pull the Actuating Arm stub all the way up and over

center to relieve tension of the Handle Return Springs (FIG 4).

- Pull off the two Handle Return Springs (FIG 5) and set aside for reinstallation noting which

one is left and which is right.

- Keep the Actuating Arm in the upward, over-center position (FIG 6).

- Replace the Handle Return Springs making sure the hooked fingers are positioned properly

just ahead of the Drive Posts with the open loops facing rearward (FIG 6).

- Replace the Roll Pins allowing them to contact the Straight fingers of the Handle Return

Springs into a slight tension in the nearest locating holes (FIG 6).

- Drive the Roll Pins into place with a Hammer (FIG 7).

- Replace the Pivot Pin (Fig 8) then allow the Actuating

Arm stub to move forward. At this point it should be under spring tension (FIG 8).

ASSEMBLY

• Assemble the two Handle sections and bolt together with the M8 x 13/16” Bolt (FIG 9).

• Install assembled Handle to the Actuating Arm with The M12 x 2” Bolt, Washer, Lock

washer and Nut (FIG 10).

• The Manual Iron Worker is ready for use.

ADJUSTMENTS

• Pivot Pin

The Manual Ironworker design incorporates a moveable Pivot Pin which modifies the cutting

pivot point.

The factory installed position (rearward hole location) offers the greatest leverage with the

lowest Handle force required while causing greater lever travel (FIG 11). This is best when

shearing thicker materials.

The alternate position (forward hole location) provides shorter lever travel however it requires

significantly greater lever force (FIG 12). This may be used on shearing lighter, thinner

materials.

TO SWITCH PIVOT PIN POSITION:

- Remove Pivot Pin by griping the head firmly and rotating side to side while pulling firmly.

Carefully withdraw Pivot Pin and immediately place it through the alternate pivot position

(FIG 12). Rotate Pivot

Pin side to side while pushing in.

FIG. 9

FIG. 10

FIG. 11

FIG. 12

DO NOT allow any components to move when withdrawing Pivot Pin or Blade Drive Plate

misalignment can occur (Fig 13). Should this occur, use of a screwdriver or magnet is

advisable to move the Blade Drive Plate back into alignment.

DO NOT use fingers!

• Right-Side, Round, Square and Angle Support Plate

The Right-Side Support Plate may be adjusted up or down to accommodate various sizes of

material. To Do So:

- Loosen the 11/16” Nuts (FIG 14).

- Insert material to be sheared into the appropriate left side opening.

- Slide the Support Plate up or down as required to provide support for the protruding

material.

- Tighten the 11/16” Nuts.

Drive Plate

OPERATION

The Manual Ironworker features multiple metal shearing options based on the shape,

thickness and type of metal to be sheared (FIG 15).

- Main Shear (FIG 16) - The Main Shear is intended for most common shearing operations of

flat stock and sheet metal up to 4” x 5/16”.

- Round Shear (FIG 17) - The Round Shear is for round bar stock up to 5/8” in diameter.

- Square Shear (FIG 17) - The Square Shear is for square bar stock up to 13/16”.

- Angle & “T” Shear (FIG 18) – The Angle & “T” Shear is designed to accept most angle and T

profile stock up to 2 3/8” x 2 3/8” x 1/4”.

SHEARING OPERATION – MAIN SHEAR

• Measure and mark a cut line on the material to be cut.

• Raise the Actuating Arm to the highest position, opening the blades.

• With the Clamping Foot in place, slip the material to be cut under it and through the blades

allowing it to hold the piece to be cut in place (FIG 19).

Do Not Use Hands or Fingers to hold piece to be cut in place while cutting.

• Rotate the Actuating Lever downward firmly in one smooth motion to shear the metal.

• Raise Actuating Lever fully then retrieve cut piece from unit.

SHEARING OPERATION – ROUND, SQUARE AND ANGLE SHEARS

• Measure and mark a cut line on the material to be cut.

• Raise the Actuating Arm to the highest position, opening the blades.

• Insert the material to be cut into the left side of the unit at the proper configured opening

and through the blades allowing the right-side Support Plate to support the material (FIG. 20).

• Rotate the Actuating Lever downward firmly in one smooth motion to shear the metal.

• Raise Actuating Lever fully then retrieve cut piece from unit.

BLADE REPLACEMENT

The Manual Ironworker is designed with hardened steel blades that should last the life of the

Iron Worker. Should damage occur and require Blade replacement, the following procedure

describes the process.

NOTICE: The following steps require precise adjustments, alignment and high attention to

detail. This procedure should only be attempted by users with advanced mechanical skills.
