So I need to rotate the vise on my new to me G&E shaper. I know its not rocket science but I am not seeing how. No obvious hold down bolts that clamp the rotating base. There is only the 4 hold down to the table bolts. Do these bolts need to be loosened to rotate? Also what is this pin? I thought it was a pin to pull so I could rotate the vise but no luck. Looking into the hole I see a spring and a detent ball? The pin will spin freely and nothing happens. I can move it up an down a smidge. I tried prying it up and it doesn't want to move. I see the head of the pin has hammer marks so this pin must do something. Just need to know how to proceed. Thanks.
