w This machine vice is guaranteed for quality, and workmanship. It has been prepared for its correct
operation through our established final assembly and test procedures. Care should be taken that it
is used correctly to ensure the operators and other persons safety in the workplace.
w Each person involved in the unpacking, handling, operation and maintenance of this vice is required
to have to read this service manual. This is to ensure safety at work compliance, and the correct
understanding of the vice operation.
w The operator has to be minimum 18-years of age, it must be ensured that the operator is capable or
has to be trained on the correct vice operation by someone more senior. The operator must be able

Personal protection.-
w Security shoes (steel toecap type).
w Protecting gloves.
w Machine guards, safety glasses.
Worklace .-
w The vice must be clamped firmly to the machine table to avoid movements during a machining
operation.
w Ensure the vice jaw movements are not impeded in any way,keep the work area tidy.
Moving the vice.-
w Care should be taken when moving the vice. The operator must keep clear of the crane or other
lifting equipment used.
Unpacking the vice .-
w To proceed with unpacking the vice, a hoist should be used for lifting with the two slings supplied,
making sure the load is correctly balanced.
w The vice is wrapped in oiled paper for its protection during delivery. Ensure that when the oiled
paper is removed from its base it is immediately placed on a "cleaned" machine table and clamped
safely in position.
Cleaning and general maintenance.-
w To ensure the vice long operational life and the most favourable working conditions, it is essential
that it is cleaned very regularly, after each machining cycle of swarf or machining sludge that can
affect its correct operation.
The regular "cleaning" can be by pressure coolant gun or air gun. Together the use of a small brush
to clear the jaw movement ways can generally be effective. Cleaning by industrial rag or paper can
also usefully be done after a number of machining cycles. It must be understood that the efficient
vice operation needs clear space for clamping and unclamping. Attention: never use chemical
products which can damage the vice.
