•
Check the movement of the head, and its return,
using the handle.
INSTALLING

table, and attach the T-nuts loosely underneath.
INSTALLING

INSTALLING
BIT AND CHISEL
Bit and chisel come boxed together, with the bit inside
the chisel.
Always make sure the mortiser is disconnected from its
power source before starting to install the set.
•
Always place the chip escape slot in the chisel shaft
to one side, right or left, never to front or rear.
Handle chisels with care: they are exceptionally
sharp. A small block of wood is a help to hold the
chisel in place while the procedure goes on.
•
Open the chuck access doors.
•
Open the chuck as far as needed: check by remov-
ing the chisel from its drill, and using the drill shank
to size the chuck opening.

INSTALLING
THE FENCE AND
HOLD-DOWN
•
Locate the fence handle, rod and handle.
Slide the fence shaft into the hole in the
column.
Screw the handle into the hole on the outside of the
column designed to hold the fence shank, and tight-
en firmly.
Slip the rod into the hole on the fence. Turn the shaft
so its flat side faces the threaded hole in the fence.
Figure 9 - Chuck Access
Loosen the front set screw on the mortiser, and slide
the chisel as far up into the head as it will go. Now,
lower the chisel about W' and tighten the set screw.
This clearance is essential. The bit cutting lips and
the points of the chisel must have the correct clear-
ance; this distance provides that clearance.
Figure 7 - Install Hold-down
•
Insert the set screw and secure rod to fence.
•
Slip the hold down on to the rod. Insert set screw
and secure hold-down to rod.
