INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing a Kurt HDL6 vise. You have just purchased
one of the best machine vises in the industry. The outstanding accuracy
of this product is second to none. Backed by a lifetime warranty against
workmanship and material defects, this product is built to last when used
and maintained properly.
The original Kurt Anglock vises are designed for precision clamping on
basic machine tools such as knee-type mills and machining centers. They
can be used for, but are not limited to, operations like precision boring,
drilling, tapping, & nishing.
The patented Anglock design allows the movable jaw to advance in such
a way that each pound of force forward induces a ½ pound of force
downward which minimizes the jaw lift and increases accuracy (Fig.1).
This, combined with the needle bearings, increases jaw clamping pressure.
Other features include: 80,000 psi ductile iron body, hardened vise bed &
jaw plates, and a semi-hard steel screw.

SETUP INSTRUCTIONS
Now that you have your new Kurt Vise, it’s time to set-up and begin using
it. You will see that your new vise comes with a Kurt swivel handle. The
handle is specically designed to provide maximum torque to your vise
(clamping force provided below). Your vise should be mounted to a clean,
at surface. The surface and the vise must be free of any chips, dirt, or
debris of any kind. The mounting surface can be honed if necessary. Clean
the bottom of the vise with solvent or another cleaner if needed.
To minimize vise bed deection, clamp your Kurt vise to your machine
table, pallet, or sub-plate using the built-in clamping slots or through the
body holes provided.
Additional clamping can be used, but may not be necessary. Please be
sure to exercise good judgment when securing your vise to the mounting
surface. Be sure your vise is secured and will not move when applying
cutting pressure.

1. Position vise on your machine table, pallet or tombstone using the
.625 or 16 MM (.6299”) locating holes found on the bottom of the vise.
We recommend using the holes that are the farthest apart for better
accuracy.
2. Bolt in place using strap clamps placed on the clamping ledge as
indicated by “Clamp Here” sticker or by bolting directly through the
vise body. When bolting through the body, the stationary jaw must be
removed to gain access to those holes. The outboard holes have plugs
to keep debris out and must be removed if you wish to use those holes
as well. Replace plugs after bolts are secured.
VISE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Do not attempt to lift the vise by attaching to any of
the jaws or injury may result. Always attach lifting
devise to the vise base frame.
!
CAUTION
NOTE: Some of the clamp holes are at inch locations and some are at
metric. For exact hole locations, go to pages 13-14 in this manual.
3. After the vise is mounted in place, add the vise jaws to the base
assembly. See jaw installation instructions that came with the jaw
kit. If a hard jaw kit “J style” was installed, tram the stationary jaw for
straightness prior to using. If it exceeds .0006” in six inches, remove
stationary jaw and disassemble the 10mm bolt, the tapered top clamp
and .750 dia. split sleeve and clean with solvent and a clean cloth. Do
Not apply grease or oil to these components. Re-assemble and retest.
This should not be necessary when using the carvable type unless a
high degree of accuracy is required and you are not recutting the jaw
contour.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
For proper vise operation, insert the handle on to the hex end of the vise.
Rotate clockwise to clamp and counterclockwise to unclamp your vise.
This handle, combined with the correct amount of torque, will provide you
with all the clamping force you will need to machine your parts.
DO NOT use any other type of pressure to open or close your vise.
The uses of handle extensions, air impact wrenches, breaker bars, or
hammer strikes are not recommended and will void the warranty if used.
This will also cause damage to the thrust bearing and screw threads. If
you need more clamping force you may require a larger vise.
One-Sided Clamping:
To properly clamp a part in your Kurt double-station vise, you should
place the parts in the center of the jaws resting on the ways of the vise.
Clamping only on one side or above the movable and stationary jaws can
result in jaw lift or loss of accuracy. (See Fig. 2 on next page)
If one-sided clamping is necessary, you MUST use a dummy part on the
other side. When using parallels or step jaws, you must select a size that
keeps the bottom of the clamped part at or below the top of the movable
and stationary jaws.
Always use jaw plates for clamping. If jaw plates are not used, damage to
the mounting surface of the movable and stationary jaw will occur. This
will result in reduced clamping accuracy and repeatability.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Clamping Using Only 1 Station:
If desiring to use only one side of the double-station vise, you must use a
dummy block in the other station as shown in Fig. 4 below.
Converting to a Single Station Vise:
If desiring to convert your double station vise to a single station, you will
need to get a Kurt conversion kit through our website, kurtworkholding.
com. This kit includes a mounting plate that bolts to the rear of the vise
and holds the back jaw in place. The center stationary jaw will need to be
removed as well. See Fig. 5 below.
