Rapid Action: The handy quick release button releases the clamp instantly. With a quick push on the power bar the gear clamp is easy to adjust and release.

Note: Open the handle to the maximum, then slide to clamp whatever you are clamping, then pull the lever towards the black bar; otherwise, it might come loose.
