ASSEMBLY
• Remove Foam Padding from existing work stand.
• The center-to-center dimension between the tops of the work stand tubes
must be set at 23” [584mm] (FIG 1).
• Most stands rely on chains, “Eye” hooks and “J” hooks to support the
spread of the tubular members.
- First, place the chain links into the “J” hooks that most closely provide
the 23” [584mm] top-tube CL to CL dimension (FIG 1).
- Some fine tuning, in-and-out adjustment of the mounting of the
“J” and “Eye” hooks may be required (FIG 1).
• Carefully set the #21273 Welding Top or the #21274 Plasma Cutting Top
with the open end of the brackets over the tops of the work stand tubes
(FIG 2). IMPORTANT NOTE: If using both tops, carefully swing the
previously mounted one up, over and allow it to hang (FIG 3).
• Note that the Spacers are threaded. Place one of the Spacers under the
tube and between the tabs of the bracket.
• Insert an M6 x 12mm tapered screw through the countersunk hole and
thread into the Spacer (FIG 4).
• Insert an M6 x 12mm pan head screw into the backside hole of the
bracket and thread into the Spacer.
• Once both screws have started threading, they should then be tightened.
• Repeat for remaining screw and spacer.
• The Eastwood Welding Top and/or Plasma Cutting Top is now ready
for use.
TECH TIP: Mark the appropriate chain link before folding the
stand for storage so that the 23” [584mm] top
tube spacing dimension can be quickly returned
to the next time the stand is needed.
