Installation
1.
Have another person hold the vise up against the
workbench in the desired mounting location.
Model D2256 Only:
If the workbench has holes for
bench dogs, make sure the bench dog on the vise is
aligned with those holes.
Note:
If the workbench is less than 2
1
⁄
4
" thick, use a
piece of scrap wood (
Figure 2
) between the vise and
workbench as a shim. Cut the shim to the necessary
thickness so the vise does not protrude above the
workbench after mounting.
2.
Use a pencil to mark the workbench through the four
vise mounting holes (
Figure 3
) so you know where to
drill pilot holes in the workbench.
3.
Use a
1
⁄
8
" drill bit to drill pilot holes approximately
1
1
⁄
2
" deep in the underside of the workbench.
