Setup Instructions

Follow these steps to correctly set up your MASKO Telescopic Trestles:

  1. Unfolding the Trestle: Carefully unfold each trestle until its legs are fully extended and locked into their open position. Ensure the trestle stands firmly on a level surface.
  2. Adjusting Height: To adjust the working height, locate the spring-loaded locking pins on each leg. Press these pins and slide the inner leg to the desired height. Release the pins to ensure they snap securely into the corresponding holes. Always ensure both legs are set to the same height for a stable and level working surface.
  3. Securing the Trestle: Before placing any load, verify that all legs are stable and that the height adjustment pins are fully engaged. The trestle should not wobble.
  4. Using Safety Bolts: For enhanced stability, especially when using two trestles as a workbench, utilize the integrated side locking hooks to secure workpieces or a tabletop to the support beams.

Operating Instructions

Proper operation ensures safety and efficiency:

  • Height Adjustment: To modify the working height, always ensure the trestle is unloaded. Press the spring-loaded pins on each leg and slide the inner tube up or down. Release the pins to lock the height. Confirm that both legs are set to the same height for a level and safe working surface.
  • Load Capacity: Each MASKO trestle is designed to support a maximum load of 200 kg. When using two trestles, the combined load capacity is 400 kg. Always distribute the load evenly across the support beam. Never exceed the maximum stated load capacity to prevent damage or injury.
  • Workpiece Security: The support beams are equipped with side locking hooks. These can be utilized to prevent workpieces, such as wooden boards or panels, from shifting or sliding during work, enhancing safety and stability.
  • Ergonomic Use: Adjust the trestle height to match your specific task and body height. This promotes an ergonomic working posture, reducing strain and improving comfort during prolonged use.
  • Included Work Gloves: For improved grip and hand protection during assembly, operation, and handling of materials, always use the provided anti-slip work gloves.

Care and Maintenance

Regular maintenance will prolong the life of your trestles:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down all metal surfaces with a damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, and debris after each use. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the protective finish.
  • Inspection: Periodically inspect all components, including the legs, locking pins, support beams, and hinges, for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure all bolts and fasteners are tight. Replace any damaged parts immediately.
  • Lubrication: Apply a light, non-corrosive lubricant to the sliding parts of the height adjustment mechanism and hinges every few months, or as needed, to ensure smooth operation.
  • Storage: When not in use, fold the trestles for compact storage. Store them in a dry, protected environment to prevent rust and damage from extreme temperatures or moisture.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your MASKO Telescopic Trestles, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

  • Trestle is Unstable:
    • Ensure all legs are fully extended and the height adjustment pins are securely locked into place.
    • Verify that the trestle is placed on a flat, stable, and non-slippery surface.
    • Check for any loose bolts and tighten them with an appropriate tool if necessary.
  • Difficulty Adjusting Height:
    • Always ensure the trestle is completely unloaded before attempting to adjust the height.
    • Check if the locking pins are fully depressed when attempting to slide the inner leg.
    • Clean any debris or dirt from the sliding mechanism. Applying a light lubricant may also help.
  • Trestle Does Not Fold Easily:
    • Ensure no parts are obstructed or caught in the folding mechanism.
    • Check for any bent or damaged components that might impede folding.
    • Lubricate the hinges if movement feels stiff.
