1.  Place the vise on a clean and lightly-oiled

drill press table. Rub the vise base in a

circular motion once or twice on the table to

fully seat the vise with the table.

2.  Clamp or bolt the vise to the table. Do not

overtighten the clamps or fasteners.

3.  Position the workpiece between the jaws and

tighten the jaws with the handle. Never use

a cheater pipe to increase leverage, or you

may damage the vise. If you like, unthread

the knob and remove the handle (Figure 1),

so that a socket and ratchet can be used on

the end of the leadscrew drive hex. However,

never use any type of impact wrench to

tighten the leadscrew.
