Securing workpiece
CAUTION:

flipping the vise nut to the left, the vise is released from
the shaft threads and can be moved rapidly in and out.
To grip workpieces, push the vise handle until the vise
plate contacts the workpiece. Flip the vise nut to the right
and then turn the vise handle clockwise to securely
retain the workpiece.
