4. Operating Instructions
Once set up, the sawhorse is ready for use as a stable support for cutting various materials.
- Material Placement: Carefully place the material (e.g., wood, pipe) onto the sawtooth struts of the sawhorse. Ensure the material is centered and balanced to prevent tipping.
- Secure Positioning: The sawtooth edges are designed to increase friction and prevent the material from sliding during cutting. Confirm the material is firmly seated against these edges.
- Cutting: Proceed with your cutting task using appropriate tools and safety precautions. The sawhorse's stable triangular structure provides a reliable base for your work.
- Weight Capacity: Do not load the sawhorse with more than 220 lbs (100 kg) of material. Overloading can compromise stability and lead to injury or damage.

5. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the life of your DURHAND Portable Sawhorse.
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe down the sawhorse with a damp cloth to remove sawdust, debris, or any other residue. For stubborn grime, a mild detergent can be used. Ensure the sawhorse is dry before storage.
- Inspection: Periodically check all bolts, nuts, and connections for tightness. Tighten any loose fasteners to maintain structural integrity. Inspect the steel frame for any signs of damage, bending, or corrosion.
- Storage: When not in use, fold the sawhorse into its compact form and store it in a dry place, away from direct moisture or extreme temperatures. This prevents rust and preserves the material.
