BE1162 Extreme Duty Vise
4. Loosen lock handle two turns and rotate
dovetail mount to upright position, then tighten
lock handle so it looks similar to Figure 1 on
the previous page.
Mounting Vise
Mount the vise to a sturdy workbench heavy
enough to not tip over from downward pressure
applied during operation. Allow enough room so
your workpiece or firearm can be fully adjusted,
and to place vise in a well-lit area.
The base 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, using hex bolts, washers, and hex
nuts to secure the vise in place. Another option is
a "Direct Mount" where the vise is secured directly
to the workbench with lag screws and washers.
The vise may also be secured with a C-clamp.
