The Sealey FDT3 Fold Down Telescopic Trestle is an ideal support solution for workshop professionals and DIY enthusiasts who require a stable, adjustable platform for cutting, drilling, or assembling long and large workpieces. Its primary benefit is the 7-position height adjustment, which allows for ergonomic operation across varied tasks; however, users should note that its 200kg capacity, while robust for most projects, may not support heavy-duty industrial machinery or extreme loads.

The trestle reaches a maximum height of 1300mm.
As long as the total weight does not exceed the 200kg capacity, it is suitable for supporting materials like logs.
No, the FDT3 does not include a storage bag, but its fold-down design makes it easy to hang on wall hooks.
The folded dimensions are 680 x 105 x 840mm.
Yes, the steel is finished with a durable coating to help protect against minor scratches and corrosion.
For boards longer than 1.5 meters, it is recommended to use at least two trestles to ensure even weight distribution.
Clear any accumulated sawdust or debris from the telescopic tubes and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the adjustment pins.
Ensure all four legs are fully locked in the open position; if the floor is significantly uneven, use a thin shim under one leg to stabilize the base.
Check the pivot bolt and loosen slightly if overtightened, or apply a drop of machine oil to the hinge point.
Setup is straightforward: simply pull the legs outward until they lock into the desired position. To adjust height, actuate the locking pins and slide the inner support tube to your preferred setting. Regarding compatibility, this trestle works with most standard power tools and is excellent for supporting workbenches or sawhorses. To ensure longevity, keep the locking mechanism free of sawdust and debris. Wipe down the steel surface with a dry cloth after use, and store in a dry, covered area to prevent surface rust, particularly if the workshop is prone to humidity.
