What should I do if the vice rusts?

Clean any rust with a wire brush or sandpaper, and apply a rust inhibitor or lubricant.

Can I use this vice for metalworking?

While suitable for general clamping, it's primarily designed for woodworking and may not be ideal for heavy metalworking tasks.

Troubleshooting

Vice won't open or close smoothly.

Check the screw and guide for debris. Clean and lubricate if necessary.

Workpiece slipping during clamping.

Ensure the workpiece is properly positioned and that the wooden liners (if installed) are providing adequate grip. Consider adding a non-slip material to the liners.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Mounting: The vice is designed to be mounted onto a workbench. Ensure the workbench is sturdy enough to withstand clamping forces. Use appropriate screws (not supplied - 4 x 5/16" UNC countersunk screws) to securely attach the vice to the bench.
Liner Installation: Wooden liners are required and should be sourced separately. These protect your workpieces from damage. Ensure that the liners fit snugly within the vice jaws. You will need to attach the wooden liners to the vice jaws using screws.
Operation: Open and close the vice by turning the handle. Do not overtighten, which can damage the workpiece or the vice.
Cleaning: Regularly clean the screw and guide with a soft cloth to remove dust and debris. Apply a light coat of lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
Storage: Store the vice in a dry place to prevent rust.
