Your vise was carefully packaged for safe trans-
portation. Remove the packaging materials from
around your vise and inspect it. If you discover
any damage, please call us immediately at (570)
546-9663 for advice.
Save the containers and all packing materials for
possible inspection by the carrier or its agent.
Otherwise, filing a claim can be difficult.
When you are completely satisfied with the condi-
tion of your shipment, inventory the contents.
The following is a list of items shipped with your
vise. Before beginning setup, lay these items out
and inventory them.
If any non-proprietary parts are missing (e.g. a
nut or a washer), we will gladly replace them; or
for the sake of expediency, replacements can be
obtained at your local hardware store.

Attaching Workpiece
The Carving Vise faceplate has 16 mounting holes
to accommodate a variety of workpieces. When
attaching a workpiece, use a minimum of four but-
ton head screws. Make sure the screws are long
enough to provide a safe, stable work surface, but
will not interfere with carving activities.
Avoid placing hands close to pinch points
located at clamping assembly and retaining
collar. Serious injury may occur.

Another option is a "Direct Mount" (see example
below) where the vise is secured directly to the
workbench with lag screws and washers.
The base of this vise has mounting holes that allow
it to be fastened to a workbench or other mounting
surface to prevent it from moving during operation
and causing accidental injury or damage.
The strongest mounting option is a "Through
Mount" where holes are drilled all the way through
the workbench—and hex bolts, washers, and hex
nuts are used to secure the vise in place.
Bench Mounting
Mount the carving vise on a workbench that is
sturdy enough to hold the weight of the equipment
and any downward pressure that may be applied
during operation.
When mounting your carving vise, remember to
allow enough room so workpiece position can be
fully adjusted, and to place carving vise in a well
lit area.
Installation
Damage to your eyes, lungs, and ears could
result from using this item without proper
protective gear, such as safety glasses, a
respirator, and hearing protection.
Refer to Figure 4 to become familiar with the
names and locations of the controls and features.

To attach workpiece to faceplate:
1. While holding faceplate, loosen clamping
handle (see Figure 4).
2. Remove faceplate/column assembly from
clamping assembly.
3. Locate appropriate position for workpiece on
faceplate.
4. Select at least four mounting holes and mark
through faceplate onto workpiece with sharp
pencil.
Note: Mounting points should be placed
evenly across workpiece to avoid stress that
could cause screws to break.
5. Pre-drill holes in workpiece slightly smaller in
diameter than mounting screws.
6. Position faceplate on workpiece and attach
with button head wood screws.
1. While holding faceplate, loosen clamping
handle (see Figure 4).
2. Position workpiece.
3. Tighten clamping handle.
Adjusting Tilt and Height
Adjusting Rotation
1. Insert pin wrench into retaining collar (see

7. With workpiece securely attached to face-
plate, re-install faceplate/column assembly
into clamping assembly.
8. Tighten clamping handle.
Note: When carving small, narrow, or oddly
shaped workpieces, it may be necessary
to attach an intermediate base to faceplate
providing a larger, more stable work area for
workpiece.
Figure 5. Correct screw type for faceplate
attachment.
Correct Incorrect
DO NOT use screws with tapered heads
to attach the faceplate because they could
split the faceplate, or the screws could snap
off during operation. See the illustration in
Figure 5 for examples.
