Your new Kurt MX350 5-axis vise is ready for operation. Be sure to use caution when clamping your parts and DO NOT exceed the recommended maximum torque value of 40lbs of torque Fig.1 Fig.2 Set this distance at approximately 3/8 inch less than the thickness of your part.
Operating Instructions For proper vise operation insert the handle on the hex end of the vise. Rotate clockwise to clamp and counterclockwise to unclamp your vise.
