Install Clamp Jaws.
Insert the clamp axle from foreside of the stand. Outer edge of the clamp is designed as dog clutch gears to fix the clamp at certain angle. This sometimes disturbs the clamp insertion, so you should push down the Lock Lever for easier job.
Put a flat washer and Lock Release Hook to the axle then tighten Knob But. The hook can set in any direction.
If you have tightened the backside knob nut too much, the clamp won't rotate smoothly. The ideal condition is you can rotate the clamp smoothly without any backlash.

How To Clamp Your Bike
W-150 reduces the bike lifting power approximately 13 kgs. It means, for example, you can lift up 25 kgs heavy bike in only 12 kgs power by this mechanism. It's very nice function to maintain heavy e-bikes, DH or FR bikes as your daily work.
Max Load = 30 kgs

If the arm has already been lifted up, you need to push down the clamp with your palm while you press down the pedal for releasing the gas dampener lock. If the arm is positioned in middle, it will start moving up rapidly upon you press down the pedal. To prevent any accident, you should hold the clamp prior to this action.
Pushing down the clamp requires certain power. It's not light. Keep your fingers and hand away from the link arm while you do this job.

To use the clamp properly, follow the steps below;

You can leave the clamp lever in either open or close position when turning the knob counter-
!
clockwise. However, if you have turned the knob too much, the inside link goes beyond the limit, and then you will suffer a problem that you cannot open/close the jaws by lever action or you cannot move the lever itself at all. This is not a defect. You can x thsi problem by turning back the knob clockwise.
Do not try to clamp the bike by just pulling up the clamp lever after adjusting the jaws opening a

little smaller than actual bike frame diameter (it's the way on the previous model). This should cause damage to the clamp lever, and may give serious damage to your bike frame due to too stong power by link system. You MUST close the jaws by turning the yellow knob clockwise.
How To Use Lock Release Hook
In the case you need to clamp the angled seat-post instead of horizontal top-tube, you should adjust the clamp angle prior to action. The clamp angle is adjustable in 15 degree increments. But the seat post angle should stay towards the middle.
Hook the lever
You can also keep the clamp rotation free by engaging the Lock Release Hook.

the bike may become unbalanced and could fall. To prevent this problem, keep the bike clamped while using the Lock Release Hook.
Another Caution
Certain jobs such as tightening the bottom

bracket cannot be performed while the bike is in the stand. Doing so may cause damage to the link arm.
It is strongly advised that the bike be set on
the ground to perform such maintenance.
