Maintenance Tips
-
Clean after use: Wipe clamps and threaded rods to remove mortar, tile debris, and dust that can hinder smooth operation.
-
Lubricate moving parts: Apply light lubricant to threads and sliding surfaces to keep tightening/loosening smooth and prevent corrosion.
-
Check alignment: Ensure jaws remain square and parallel for consistent 45° miter clamping accuracy.
-
Inspect pads & grips: Replace worn rubber/foam pads to maintain secure hold without damaging tile edges.
-
Tighten hardware: Periodically check that all bolts and fasteners are snug to avoid play during clamping.
-
Store dry: Keep in a clean, dry space to protect metal components from rust and extend clamp life.
