1.  Do not load with more than 450 pounds.

2.  Do not apply an unbalanced load which could cause the work center to tip over.

3.  Do not use the work center as a stepladder or standing platform. Do not use the lower

4.  Do not store work center outdoors or in a damp location.

5.  Avoid applying excessive force when clamping with the swivel pegs.

6.  Be sure that the legs are fully open (for workbench height) and be sure that the table 

locks in position.

7.  When using a power tool with the work center, follow the safety instructions in the 

tool’s instruction manual.

8.  Always wear safety glasses when operating power tools.

9.  An even pressure of the vise jaws on the workpiece is essential. Tighten both crank 

handles uniformly.

•  Before any use, be sure everyone using this tool reads and understands all safety

instructions and other information contained in this manual.

•  Save these instructions and review frequently prior to use and in instructing others.

The Workmate® 225 Type 6 work center comes partially assembled. A standard hammer 

is required for assembly. A plastic socket wrench is included. Empty the contents of the

box and identify all components (see Figure 1). Place the frame (A) on the floor in the 

position shown in Figure 1.  Find the release levers near the front rubber feet on the sides 

of the frame. Depress both release levers as shown in Figure 2 and pull up until you hear 

the frame lock in place.

1.  Select the vise screws (D) and the pivot nuts (E). Screw one pivot nut onto each vise

screw about halfway as shown in Figure 3, assemble washer (O) on vise screw.

2.  Insert the unthreaded end of the vise screws into the frame such that the pivot nuts 

are located in the slots on the top of the frame and the unthreaded ends protrude 

through the holes in the front of the frame, as shown in Figures 3 and 4.

3.  Install the two vise cranks (F) and secure them by driving the pins (M) through the 

holes in the cranks and the vise screws.  (Align the holes in the vise cranks with the 

holes in the vise screws and strike the pins sharply with a steel hammer until they 

are flush with the sides of the vise cranks.) See Figure 5.  

4.  Closely examine the two front top blocks and the two rear ones.  Note that the front 

blocks do not have a protruding tab on the bottom side where the rear blocks do. 

Select the front vise jaw, (B), and the two front top blocks, (J).  Place the top blocks 

on the rails of the frame as shown in Figure 6.

5.  Install the front vise jaw on top of the top blocks so that the small holes at each end 

of the jaw fit down over the posts on the top side of the blocks. With the jaw  

positioned as described above insert into the frame as shown in Figure 6, insert two 

of the four bolts, (L) into the holes in the jaw and tighten them securely into the holes 

in the pivot nut. Use the socket wrench, (I) provided, shown in Figure 1.

    NOTE: For clarity, only the left side assembly is shown.  Perform all operations 

6.  Select the rear vise jaw, (C) and the two rear top blocks, (K). Position the rear top blocks 

on the frame rails so that the tab ears in the bottom of the blocks fit into the key holes 

of the frame rail. Position the top  blocks so their raised posts are toward the rear of the 

frame, as shown in Figure 7.  Now install the rear vise jaw so that the small holes in the 

ends of the jaw fit over the raised posts on the top blocks you just installed.

7.  Insert the remaining two bolts, (L) into the holes in the jaw and through the top 

blocks into the raised posts of the vise guides.  The holes in the rear blocks are not 

threaded so you will feel resistance as you cut threads into them.

8. Snap-in crank handle as shown in  Figure 8.

9.  To assemble the rubber feet to your Workmate: Turn the unit upside down. Swing

out the four legs to the fully extended and locked position.  Align the rubber foot with 

the leg as shown in Figure 9. Lightly tap foot into place with a hammer.

1.  Install the rear jaw in 1 of 3 possible indexed “keyhole” positions by indexing the rear 

vise jaw into a keyhole in the vise jaw bracket. Secure the rear jaw by sliding it to the

back of the keyhole. As shown in Figure 7.

1.  The four supplied swivel pegs can be used in any of the holes in the front and rear 

jaws. The pegs are used to extend the dimensions of your Workmate’s holding 

capacity. (Figure 10)
