Safety Instructions for Pan and Box Brakes

1. OVERLOADING PAN AND BOX BRAKE. Overloading this brake can cause injury from flying parts.

Review the

Specifications on Page 2 to determine the maximum gauge per material type that can

be safely used with the Model M1043.

2. USING TORCHES. Heating metal with a torch while the metal is in the pan and box brake will weaken

the fingers. DO NOT use torches when a workpiece is in this tool.

METAL EDGES

Always chamfer and de-burr sharp sheet metal edges. Sharp edges on sheet metal

can cut your fingers to the bone.

4. SAFETY GEAR. Always approved safety glasses, leather gloves, and leather boots when using this

brake.

5. EXPERIENCING DIFFICULTIES. If at any time you are experiencing difficulties performing the intend-

ed operation, STOP using the tool and contact our Technical Support Department, or ask a qualified

expert how the operation should be performed.

6. TOOLS IN POOR CONDITION. Inspect the pan and box brake for any cracked linkage, levers, or loose

fasteners. Correct any problems before use.

7. CHEATER PIPES. Using cheater pipes on the clamping handles can quickly overload this tool, which

may lead to serious personal injury. DO NOT use cheater pipes!
