This product carries a full 2 year manufacturers warranty covering both faulty materials and faulty workmanship, it does not cover general wear and tear or damage, batteries, blades, bulbs and other consumables. In the unlikely event of a fault the item returned is subject to fair wear & tear and must not have been used beyond the scope of it's design. You can then separate these two wooden strips by cranking two handles and that creates a vice space between the two strips. Into those you can insert material work pieces and then tighten the handles to secure the piece. With the dual height models you have 2 choices of height so it can be used as a bench and like a basic saw horse - personally we prefer this as it gives you more use out of the workmate

The frame then folds relatively flat which allows you to set it against a wall, or hang it up out of the way, to stop it taking up room in your storage
