We urge you to take time to familiarize yourself with the mechanics of your
traveler vise. Rotary tying can be easier and more productive. See tips
(opposite page). Please return your warranty card to validate your warranty.
Your vise has been assembled and lubricated at the factory. All you have to do is assemble the
bobbin cradle and attach the vise to the stem. The jaws on your vise have been black oxide
coated and then oiled. After use they should be coated with oil or rust inhibitor such as WD-40
to prevent rust or oxidation caused by acidity in your fingers. Any light general purpose grease,
preferably silicone grease, can be applied on any moving parts or o-ring *.
Please note, our warranty does not cover rust damage.
1. Slide the cradle support collar onto the c-clamp stem with the flat side up as
shown in the diagram.
2. Slide the cradle support onto the c-clamp stem as shown. Use the cradle
support tension screw to add drag to the cradle support as needed.
3. Attach the vise to the c-clamp stem and tighten. Be careful not to cross the
threads when attaching the vise.
4. Slide the cradle arm into the hole in the cradle support and tighten the
cradle arm lock screw to secure the cradle arm. If the cradle is not in a
comfortable position hold the cradle arm firmly and rotate the cradle to the
desired position. See detail 1.
5. Slide the cradle support collar and cradle support up or down so that the
cradle is on or just below the center line of the rotary shaft.

1. When applying dubbing remember to use your rotary action, this allows you to always
be in eye-contact with the area you are wrapping.
2. The secret to palmering a hackle by rotary is the half hitch. After tying in the hackle,
wrap your thread to the point at which you wish to stop the hackle. Then apply a half
hitch. Hang the bobbin from the bobbin cradle. As the hackle is palmered the thread
will roll with the hook. At the end of the palmer let your hackle pliers hang. Pick up the
bobbin, swing the cradle out of the way and tie off the hackle.
3. Remember that a rotary vise makes all sides of your fly viewable by using the rotary
feature of your vise.
For more rotary tying techniques ask your retailer for the Renzetti Rotary Tying Tips video.
Improper Hook Placement
Voids Warranty
1. The most important step of rotary tying is proper positioning
of the hook in the jaw.
2 Always place the hook in the jaw so that the shank of the
hook rotates on the center line of the rotary shaft as shown
in detail 1, detail 2, and detail 3.
3. As hook size increases be sure to place the hook deeper in
the jaws as shown in detail 2 and detail 3
.
3. Never try to hold large hooks at the extreme tip of the jaw
as shown in detail 4. This practice will cause premature
failure of the jaw clamping faces.
4. By placing the shank of the hook close to the center line of
the vise an even distribution of materials is possible.

If desired you can change the amount of drag
against the rotary motion of your vise.
Refer to detail 9.
1. Hold the rotay shaft and the primary knob
closest to the rotary head in one hand.
2. With the other hand loosen the outer most
primary knob a little bit.
3. Either tighten the primary knob closest to the
rotary head to increase tension, or loosen
the knob to decrease tension.
4. Again hold the rotary shaft and the primary
knob closest to the rotary head in one hand
and tighten the end cap.
5. Use the rotary tension screw to stop rotation.

1: Be sure the cam is fully released. See detail 5.
2: Use the jaw adjusting screw to adjust the gap until the desired hook just slips into the jaws.
See detail 6.
3: To clamp the hook swing the cam to the clamp position. See detail 5. Note : There is no need
to exert alot of force on the cam. Simply clampthe hook and test to see if it moves. If it does,
apply a little more force on the cam. Over clamping of hooks can cause the hook to break.

Note: Do not rotate cam more than 90 Deg. to the jaws(see detail 10) this will
result in less holding power and make it difficult to release the hook.
