Trimmer guide
Trimming, curved cuts in veneers for furniture and the like
can be done easily with the trimmer guide. The guide
roller rides the curve and assures a fine cut.
Loosen the wing bolts and secure the tool base horizon-
tally. Install the trimmer guide on the tool base with the
clamp screw (A). Loosen the clamp screw (B) and adjust
the distance between the bit and the trimmer guide by
turning the adjusting screw (1 mm (3/64") per turn). At
the desired distance, tighten the clamp screw (B) to
secure the trimmer guide in place.
