Trimmer guide
001713
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.
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 per turn). At the
desired distance, tighten the clamp screw (B) to secure
the trimmer guide in place.

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
