General
Folding the legs
Due to the quick deploy technology, the Speedhorse has a different method to closing the legs after use. There is a latch on the end of the sawhorse that holds the legs open during use.
- To close, lift the end of the sawhorse (or hold in the center handle), then pull the lever with one hand.
- The legs will swing in slightly
- Lift the center of the leg brace (halfway down the legs) slightly.
- Lift the legs and push into the body of the sawhorse until it clicks
- NOTE: The legs should close easily. Do not force the legs closed as this could cause damage to legs or mechanism
- Repeat for the other leg.

Latching the legs on the Speedhorse XT
The Speedhorse XT has larger legs than the Speedhorse, so there is a slightly tighter fit. Sometimes there is difficulty with latching the 2nd leg inside the body of the sawhorse. The below video explains how to solve this.
