CABINETMAKER’S VISE
ITEM
#95-900
www.general.ca
Installation note: The top of the movable jaw must sit flush with, or slightly below (Fig.1-A) the top of your workbench.
Depending on the thickness of your workbench, this may require installing a shop-made wooden shim (Fig.2-B) of the appropriate thickness between the vise and the workbench.
If using a shim, make sure the wood screws pass completely through the shim and secure at least halfway into the workbench
thickness (Fig.2-C). You may need wood screws of a different length when using a shim. Also, for added holding strength,
attach the shim directly to the workbench with wood screws that are independent of the vise (Fig.2-D).

INSTALLATION
1. Clamp or have another person hold the vise up against the underside
of the workbench in the desired mounting location.
2. Use a pencil to mark the workbench through the four vise mounting
holes (Fig.3-E) so you know where to drill pilot holes in the workbench.
3. Use a 1⁄4" drill bit to drill pilot holes approximately 1" deep in the underside of the workbench.
4. Attach the vise to the workbench with four 5/16” x 1-1/2" wood screws*
and washers* through the underside of the workbench. (Fig.1-F)
