Set-up Instructions
Now that you have your new Kurt 3600-Series vise, it's time to
set-up and begin using it. You will see that your new vise comes
with a Kurt swivel handle, two chip guards (short & long) and an
instruction manual along with the O-ring installation guide sup-
plied in the shipping carton. The chip guard rests between the
ways of the vise and can be trimmed to size to help keep the chips
out of the screw. The handle is specifically designed to provide
maximum torque to your vise. Your vise should be mounted to a
clean flat surface. The surface and the vise must be free of any
chips, dirt or debris of any kind. The mounting surface can be
honed if necessary. Clean the bottom of the vise with solvent or
other cleaner if needed. Air activated vises require shop air
power. Air filter/lubricator required.
To minimize vise bed deflection, clamp your Kurt vise to your
machine table, pallet, or sub-plate using the built-in clamping
slots provided. To access the through holes, simply pick the edge
of the protective cap up and expose the C' bored hole. Replace
the cap after you have mounted the vise to keep debris out of the
holes. If you are mounting the vise on it's side or back to back,
other clamping methods may be required.
