Problem: The vise is difficult to turn.
-If it is a new vise, the brush seal could be stiff. Allow for break in of
vise.
-If it is a used vise, it could be filed with chips. Clean and grease the
screw.
Problem: The vise will not turn in either direction.
-The vise is rusted or jammed with debris. Disassemble and clean as
needed.
Problem: The jaw is lifting.
-Recut the dovetail with Kurt's dovetail cutter.
-Check to see that the torque limits are not being exceeded. (see pg 3)
Problem: The hole pattern on the base does not match the table it is
being mounted to.
-Kurt can provide a schematic of the hole pattern to help make a
fixture plate.
-Kurt sells an adapter plate (BP8) that will allow the vise to be adapted
to almost any machine table.
