How to use

Secure the vice to a stable bench or table using appropriate fasteners through the mounting holes. Position the workpiece between the jaws and turn the handle to apply firm, even pressure until the piece is held without movement. During operations such as sawing, drilling or filing, periodically check the tightness and reposition the workpiece as needed to maintain safe access and precision. After use, loosen the jaws and remove the workpiece, and clean any chips or debris from the vice surfaces.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety glasses and gloves when working with the vice. Avoid using the vice as an anvil or subjecting it to impacts beyond its intended clamping function. Regularly remove debris and apply a light protective coating to exposed metal surfaces to reduce corrosion and ensure smooth operation.
