Assembling and Maintenance Instructions
HEUER Compact bench vice
1. Assembly
a) The vice is to be placed on the workbench so
that the fixed rear saddle is vertically flush with
the front edge of the workbench. This makes it
possible to utilize the full side clamping potential
of the vice and allows longer work pieces to be
clamped upright in front of the workbench.
b) To secure the HEUER Compact bench vice to
the workbench use clearance bolts with a diam-
eter of 6 mm with matching nuts and washers.
c) The holes for the screws are to be carefully
marked and drilled about 2 mm larger than the
bolt diameter.
2. Maintenance
a) At delivery the guide bar and threaded spindle
are already ideally oiled. The cleaning and light
oiling of these two elements with a not too vis-
cous machine oil can be repeated as necessary
b) It is recommended to inspect, clean, and oil
the spindle threads in annual intervals. When
holding the front part upright a few drops of oil
should also flow over the spindle head and pres-
sure ring into the spindle housing.
c) After great soiling it can be worthwhile to
clean the Quicklaunch. To do this, remove the
cap on the adjustment bar and blow pressur-
ized air into the scale groove. Repeat procedure
in closed and open position of the Compact.
ATTENTION: Adhere to all safety measures!
Expressly the wearing of safety glasses and
mouth mask!
3. Handling the HEUER Compact Quicklaunch
bench vice
To open or close the vice by Quicklaunch (quick
adjustment) turn the rear bar with the millimetre
scale, when looking from the front, clockwise to
the stop, hold in this position and remove or slide
in the front jaw. Then release the Quicklaunch bar.
A return spring brings the adjusting mechanism
back into the original position.
If the mechanism is not immediately loosened
or the quick gripping pipe does not immediately
click into place after releasing then do this by
gently turning the spindle.
Remark: For safety reasons the adjusting mecha-
nism does not function if loaded.
Attention! Clamping forces of over 10 kN (Kilo
Newton) can lead to deformation of the lever and
spindle.
