clamping
1/2-turn clamping.
I can't imagine it refers to anything else.

Just to clarify, I undestand the clamp-release mechanism to operate with half a turn.

pegs
Looks to me as if they're talking about the pegs that hold the hooks where you want them - you turn the peg 180° to release the hook, and turn it back 180° to fix it somewhere else along the beam.
