The vertical vise can be installed in two positions each
on the left and right side of the base. Insert the vise rod
into one of the holes in the base.
Position the vise arm according to the thickness and
shape of the workpiece and secure the vise arm by
tightening the clamping screw. If the clamping screw
contacts the carriage, install it on the opposite side of
vise arm. Make sure that no part of the tool contacts the
vise when lowering the handle all the way. If some part
contacts the vise, re-position the vise.

WARNING: When cutting a thin workpiece,
such as base boards, against the fence, always
use the horizontal vise.
CAUTION: When cutting the workpiece of the
thickness 20 mm or thinner, make sure to use a
spacer block to secure the workpiece.
The horizontal vise can be installed either on the left or
on the right side of the base. When performing 22.5° or
greater miter cuts, install the horizontal vise on the side
opposite to the direction in which the turn base is to be
turned.
