MOUNT VISE TO A SECURE
WORKBENCH (SEE ILLUSTRATION)
1.
Place vise on the workbench to identify location
of mounting holes.
2. For added strength to the workbench prior to
installing and securing vise, place an 18" x 18"
x 2" piece of wood (18" x 18" x ¼" metal plate)
to the bottom side of the workbench.
3. Mark and drill holes through the workbench
and wood / metal plate using the swivel base as
the template for the mounting holes. Prior to
drilling, make sure area is free and clear of any
hazards.
4. Install proper length and diameter bolts into
the swivel base of the vise. The following
configuration is recommended at a minimum:
a. Install proper length and diameter bolts
along with flat washer through the swivel
base of the vise. The bolt should be long
enough to protrude at least 1" beyond
the underside of the workbench and
wood / metal plate. On the bottom side
of the workbench and wood / metal plate,
place a flat washer, lock washer and
locking nut to the bolt. Securely tighten
vise to the workbench. Periodically,
recheck and re-tighten the nuts.
VISE OPERATION
Make sure vise selection (size and type) is
appropriate for use and application. Larger vise
options are available. Never force or use cheater
bars, pipe extensions on the screw handle of the
vise as this places excessive pressure on the vise
components and they may fail resulting in severe
bodily injury.
1.
Make sure vise is securely mounted to the
workbench.
2. Make sure the swivel base lockdowns are
secure.
3. Open the vise by turning the vise handle
counterclockwise. Do not open beyond the
vises rated capacity (jaw opening).
4. Place item between the serrated jaws of the
vise.
5. Close the vise by turning the vise handle
clockwise until the item is snug between the
serrated jaws.

6. Continue to tighten the screw handle until you
can no longer move (twist) the clamped item.
Do not over tighten as this may damage item
and / or the vise.
7.
When finished working on the item, slowly turn
screw handle counterclockwise to release the
item.
SWIVEL BASE OPERATION
The vise is generally operated perpendicular to the
workbench, enabling work to be performed from
either side of the vise. In some cases, the vise may
need to be rotated to allow better and safer access
to the item. In order to change the position of the
vise, please follow the steps below:
1.
After item is securely mounted in the vise,
slowly loosen each lockdown located on both
sides of the vise. Care should be taken not to
over-loosen or remove the lockdowns as this
may cause the vise to tip over and cause bodily
injury. Loosen (turn counterclockwise) each lock
down about ¼ of a turn until the vise is able to
swivel from the base.
2. Swivel the vise to allow better and safer access
to the item.
3. Tighten (turn clockwise) each lockdown so that
the vise is securely clamped to the base.
