| Description: |  | The interior of the movable jaw has a pawl lever with teeth that engage a rack on the main bar.  The pivot point of the lever is loose enough that the strain is directly from the jaw to the pawl.  A spring holds the pawl in engagement with the rack.  A push button through the face of the movable jaw disengages the teeth for adjustment. |  |
