To Use:
1. Only push against a stationary surface such as a wall stud. When between wall
studs, push against a board long enough to span the distance of the studs so as to
prevent breaking through the drywall.
2. Ratchet the lever handle until faceplate contacts the stationary surface
3. Continue to ratchet until the fl oor catch draws the fl oor tight for nailing
4. The Powerjack 100 can be left in place, hands free, while that section of fl ooring
is being nailed down.
To release the Powerjack 100, push the handle to the full forward position.
The POWERJACK Model 100 is designed to pull fl ooring strips into place and hold
them tightly for hands-free nailing.
Easy to operate! Use the lever handle to ratchet the faceplate against a stationary
surface. Continue to ratchet until the fl oor catch draws the fl ooring to the desired
position. The POWERJACK can be left in place while you nail down the fl ooring
strip. To release the POWERJACK, simply push the handle to full forward position.
The Model 100 POWERJACK sits on top of your fl ooring and gains leverage against
a wall, a wall-stud, or the toe kick of cabinetry (see picture 1).
When a stud location cannot be determined, a board long enough to span the distance
of the studs should be used to prevent breaking through the drywall (picture 2).
When not near a wall, a temporary anchor point such as a two-by-four fi xed to the
sub fl oor can be used (see picture 3).
Powerjacks® are constructed in the USA and are made
of the best materials available.

The Model 100 pushes against a stud
location on a stationary wall to pull the
strips into place. Great for snugging-up
end strips against walls, wall trim or
fi xed cupboards or cabinets
(see picture 1).
When a stud location cannot be
determined, a board long enough to span
the distance of the studs should be used
to prevent breaking through the drywall
(see picture 2).
If needed, the Powerjack can also be used
away from the wall by setting a stationary
anchor point anywhere near your work
area (see picture 3).
