PM-25 Unbox and Install - Houston, we have a problem!

Is the 5" vise too big for this machine? I thought I read that the 5" was best, but the manual says a 4" is suitable.
 
You have at least a couple of choices on the rocking - either get some shim stock and fit underneath each corner to stop the rocking or fit the base with some rubber feet with adjustable studs. I use the rubber feet on my full size mill and it stays level without any fuss. Jack
 
Thanks. I think I'll give shims a try, as I really don't want to pull the mill off the stand if I don't have to
 
Yay. Turns out I had a jar of shims sitting on the shelf. Rock solid now.
