MACHINING THE CARVABLE JAWS
For the best results when machining the carvable jaws for the PF Series of
vises, follow the procedure below.
1.
Use parallels, vise hard jaws, or other precision cut blocks that are set
just below the cut surface as shown in the diagram below.
2.
Clamp your precision blocks in the vise. For the best accuracy, clamp
the vise to the same amount of torque you will be using during
production when cutting your jaws.
3.
Do not
cut inside the boundaries of the scribed lines on the jaw
blanks. Cutting inside of these lines will damage the internal features
of the jaw. Dimensions are shown below.
