Regular Cleaning: Keep your bench vice clean by removing debris and rust. Regularly wipe down the vice with a dry cloth to prevent buildup.
Lubricate Moving Parts: Apply lubrication to the screw and moving parts. Use machine oil or grease to ensure smooth operation and prevent wear.
Inspect for Wear and Tear: Frequently check for signs of damage or excessive wear. Replace any worn-out parts such as jaws or screws to maintain functionality.
Tighten Loose Components: Ensure all bolts and screws are securely tightened. Loose components can affect the vice’s performance and accuracy.
Replace Worn Parts Promptly: Replace any parts that show significant wear or damage. Regular replacements, like jaws or handles, keep your bench vice performing optimally.
