Hi 1st post here so sorry for etiquette issues. Just picked up a ridgid 61 sn vise with a broke foot and need to remove base. Before I apply brute influence, is there anything else to remove other than swivel bolts? I Removed the main jaw nut and can't see any thing else. Just don't want to mess up an otherwise fine vice. And a big mo fo at that. Been waiting a while for a shop size. Thanks in advance. 20230624_140145.jpg20230624_175349.jpg20230624_172657.jpg

The main swivel bolt needs to come out. Yours is a weirdo, but it has wrench flats20230624_175349.jpg

Thanks for the replies. I have sprayed oil at the top, but th cavity had been packed with grease so unsure about penatration. That weirdo bolt is my issue seem like I need an offset open ended wrench. I'm sure I'll make due, I'm just trying to make sure that is the only remaining fastner. Thanks again.
