READ INSTRUCTIONS
• Thoroughly read and understand this manual before using.
• Save for future reference.
INJURY HAZARD!
• This tool has leveraged components that generate amplified crushing and
bending forces which can quickly cause severe injury! Keep fingers and
hands away from moving parts when operating.
• Tremendous external torque loads are placed on this Shrinker Stretcher
during operation. This tool cannot be operated without adequate support
or severe personal injury or property damage can occur if it should suddenly
be become dislodged or moves while in use. Before beginning ANY work
with this tool, it is absolutely necessary that it be securely bolted to a solid
work surface.
• Strenuous physical force may need to be applied to the Shrinker Stretcher
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 lengths of material.
• The Shrinker Stretcher is equipped with a Handle of the proper length to
provide adequate bending force. DO NOT add pipe, bars or any other devices
which would add additional length to the Handle to increase bending force.
This will exceed the design limits of the tool and can result in serious injury
and/or component failure.
