FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before adjusting or checking function on
the tool.
Adjusting the depth of cut

Place the tool on a flat surface. Loosen the lock lever and
lower the tool body until the bit just touches the flat sur-
face. Press the lock lever down to lock the tool body.
Now lower the stopper pole until it makes contact with the
adjusting hex bolt. The stopper pole can be moved rap-
idly by depressing the fast-feed button. While pressing
the fast-feed button, raise the stopper pole until the
desired depth of cut is obtained. The depth of cut is equal
to the distance between the stopper pole and the adjust-
ing hex bolt. Stopper pole travel can be checked with the
scale (1 mm or 1/16" per graduation) on the tool body.
Minute depth adjustments can be obtained by turning the
stopper pole (1.5 mm or about 1/16" per turn).

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.
By turning the knob, the upper limit of the tool body can
be adjusted. When the tip of the bit is retracted more than
required in relation to the base plate surface, turn the
knob to lower the upper limit.
CAUTION:
• Since excessive cutting may cause overload of the
motor or difficulty in controlling the tool, the depth of
cut should not be more than 20 mm (13/16") at a
pass when cutting grooves. When you wish to cut
grooves more than 20 mm (13/16") deep, make
several passes with progressively deeper bit set-
tings.
• Do not lower the knob too low. The bit will protrude
dangerously.
Stopper block

The stopper block has three adjusting hex bolts which
raise or lower 0.8 mm (1/32") per turn. You can easily
obtain three different depths of cut using these adjusting
hex bolts without readjusting the stopper pole.
Adjust the lowest hex bolt to obtain the deepest depth of
cut, following the method of "Adjusting depth of cut".
Adjust the two remaining hex bolts to obtain shallower
depths of cut. The differences in height of these hex bolts
are equal to the differences in depths of cut.
To adjust the hex bolts, first loosen the hex nuts on the
hex bolts with the wrench and then turn the hex bolts.
After obtaining the desired position, tighten the hex nuts
while holding the hex bolts in that desired position. The
stopper block is also convenient for making three passes
with progressively deeper bit settings when cutting deep
grooves.
