Care |
||||
 |
Before using, you should inspect the condition of the chain on your vice. Check that the links are not damaged and that the rivets are not bent or broken. | |||
Cleaning |
||||
 |
Clean the vice after each use, removing any metal filings that may be on the jaws or base.
Wipe the chain with a lightly-oiled cloth to prevent corrosion and rust. |
|||
Lubrication |
||||
 |
The moving parts of the pipe vice should be oiled as often as is necessary to prevent them from becoming stiff. | |||
Storage |
||||
 |
When not in use, you should store your pipe vice in a shed or workshop away from any moisture that could potentially cause the tool to rust. | |||
