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.

  1. To close, lift the end of the sawhorse (or hold in the center handle), then pull the lever with one hand.
  2. The legs will swing in slightly
  3. Lift the center of the leg brace (halfway down the legs) slightly.
  4. Lift the legs and push into the body of the sawhorse until it clicks
    1. NOTE: The legs should close easily. Do not force the legs closed as this could cause damage to legs or mechanism
  5. Repeat for the other leg.
