Troubleshooting

Clamp does not hold firmly.

Ensure the handle is turned clockwise sufficiently. Check that the brake mechanism is properly engaged and that the workpiece is positioned securely within the jaws.

Handle is difficult to turn.

Inspect the screw mechanism for dirt or debris. Clean the threads and apply a suitable lubricant if necessary. Ensure the workpiece is not excessively large or misaligned, which could cause binding.

Jaws slip on the workpiece.

Verify that the non-marring jaw pads are clean and intact. Ensure adequate clamping force is applied. For round materials, utilize the cross notches if applicable.

Plate spins when handle is turned.

This specific model features a non-spinning plate by design. If it is spinning, inspect for damage to the mechanism or ensure the handle is correctly engaged with the screw.
