The toggle base operates using a pivot and lever system, the toggle clamp will lock in the clamping position just past the centre of the pivoting point. The toggle clamp is used to secure the workpiece in position, the clamp can be used to hold a variety of workpieces in conjunction with many of the other fixture components.
The toggle base is used in conjunction with either the LEE-16 height adjustor body to allow it to be operated at varying heights and orientations.

In order to adjust the height and orientation of the toggle base it should firstly be fitted into either the LEE-16 height adjustor body by means of the thread, the two components should be screwed together and tightened in position by hand.
Once the two parts are assembled together the height and orientation of the retractable spring clamp is set by operating and locating the LEE-16 height adjustor body as follows:
The LEE-16 height adjustor body comprises of two components; the ‘body’ and the ‘nut’ the main bodies Male thread is screwed into the mating components female thread. The height setting is determined by the depth at which the Male thread is screwed into the mating part. The nut is then used to lock the body in position by tightening it up against the mating component.
The toggle base is operated by pushing the handle down to apply the clamping pressure against the workpiece. To release the clamp the handle is simply lifted up.
In order to fully appreciate the way in which this component is used we recommend that you view the ‘typical applications page’ in the product catalogue, manual or on our website at http://www.leecosfixture.com.

For general cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used applied with a cloth or sponge. For removal of grease or oily deposits methylated spirits can be applied with a cloth or sponge. In both cases the part should be finally rinsed in cold water and thoroughly dried.
