12. Do not use the Vise if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels on
prescriptions to determine if your judgement or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs. If
there is any doubt, do not assemble or use the Vise.
13. Do not rely only on the vacuum to hold the Vise in place-see additional warning in the
Assembly/Operation section. Make certain the Vise is used on a smooth clean surface free
of dust and debris to allow for adequate suction and a solid seal. Never lean on or apply added
weight to the vise. Always be aware of possible failure of the vacuum seal holding the vise in
place.
WARNING:
The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by
the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into
this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
