Place the tool on a flat surface. Loosen the lock lever
and lower the tool body until the bit just touches the flat
surface. Tighten the lock lever to lock the tool body.
Turn the stopper pole setting nut counterclockwise.
Lower the stopper pole until it makes contact with the
adjusting bolt. Align the depth pointer with the "0" grad-
uation. The depth of cut is indicated on the scale by the
depth pointer.
While pressing the fast-feed button, raise the stopper
pole until the desired depth of cut is obtained. Minute
depth adjustments can be obtained by turning the
adjusting knob (1 mm per turn).
By turning the stopper pole setting nut clockwise, you
can fasten the stopper pole firmly.
Now, your predetermined depth of cut can be obtained
by loosening the lock lever and then lowering the tool
body until the stopper pole makes contact with the
adjusting hex bolt of the stopper block.
Always firmly hold the tool by both grip during operation.
Set the tool base on the workpiece to be cut without
the bit making any contact. Then turn the tool on and
wait until the bit attains full speed. Lower the tool body
and move the tool forward over the workpiece surface,
keeping the tool base flush and advancing smoothly
until the cutting is complete.
When doing edge cutting, the workpiece surface should
be on the left side of the bit in the feed direction.

NOTE:
• Moving the tool forward too fast may cause a poor quality
of cut, or damage to the bit or motor. Moving the tool
forward too slowly may burn and mar the cut. The proper
feed rate will depend on the bit size, the kind of work-
piece and depth of cut. Before beginning the cut on the
actual workpiece, it is advisable to make a sample cut on
a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly how the
cut will look as well as enable you to check dimensions.
• When using the straight guide, be sure to install it
on the right side in the feed direction. This will help
to keep it flush with the side of the workpiece.
