Operation

1. Set the depth stop to the required depth of cut
(refer to the Depth Stop Adjustment section on
page 12).
2. Place workpiece on table and against the
fence.
3. Adjust the fence until the workpiece is in the
correct position (see the Fence and Clamp
section on page 14).
4. Clamp the workpiece or set the clamp to the
desired height as described in the Fence and
Clamp section on page 14)
Before turning the machine on,
verify that the chuck key is not in the chuck.
5. Turn on the machine and feed the chisel and
auger steadily into workpiece by pulling down
the operating handle.
After the first cut, move the workpiece along for
each successive cut. The direction of movement
must allow the chips to clear freely. Move the
workpiece so that the slot in the chisel is releasing
chips into the already cut part of the workpiece
(Figure 14).
Do not have the chisel slot
against the blind end of the mortise, as the
chips will not be able to clear the chisel. This
can cause overheating and possible breakage
of chisel or auger.
When cutting deep mortises, make the cut in
several stages of approximately 1" each, to allow
chips to clear. To prevent breakout at the back of
the workpiece when cutting through mortises, use
a piece of scrap material under the workpiece as
support.

Rotating Column

Referring to Figure 15:
The column can be rotated 180º as shown to
permit mortising large workpieces off the table. To
rotate the column:
1. Using a 4mm hex wrench, remove four screws,
lock washers and flat washers (C) Note: only
one screw is visible in Figure 15.
2. Rotate the column (A) 180º.
3. Replace the four screws, lock washers and flat
washers.
The base must be secured to
the work bench.
