    OPERATION SECTION 2 OPERATION 2-1 OPERATING PROCEDURE: ADEQUATE EYE PROTECTION MUST BE WORN WHEN OPERATING THIS MACHINE: Before machining any jambs, the operator must know the following information about the desired fin- ished product: - Header Clearance - Lock Height - Strike and/or Deadbolt Dimensions After making any required adjustments (refer to section 3, next page) the operator performs the following steps.
  • Page 15: Section 3 Adjustments

    TEMPLATE Fig. 3-1 The 250MX is designed to use “multi-feature” templates which allows for the machining of regular and deadbolt strike plates without unclamping and repositioning the jamb. Two knobs, located on the front of the template holder, allow for changing templates without the need of tools. Note the shims that are between the template and the template holder - they are required to insure correct locating and clamping of the template.
  • Page 16 ADJUSTMENTS 3-2 STRIKE PLATE HEIGHT: (REFER TO FIGURE 3-2, PAGE 15) The adjustable stop assemblies at each end of the machine reference the jamb for correct strike plate height. On the stop turret, the “button” opposite the pivot shaft is used for interior jambs and either one or both of the other “buttons”...
  • Page 17 ADJUSTMENTS 3-3 FACEPLATE MORTISE AND BOLT RELIEF DEPTH: The depth of the faceplate mortise is controlled using the template follower. Start by making sure that the router bit shank is seated all the way in the router collet and the router motor is all the way “down” in the clamp. Adjust for cor- rect mortise depth by changing the effective length of the template follower.
  • Page 18 3-4 SINGLE FEATURE TEMPLATES: The 250MX is shipped with an auxiliary set of spacers (in the Boxed Parts with the router wrenches and Owners Manual) that are used to correctly locate single feature 250M style templates. The shorter spacer with the index pin goes on the right hand side, the plain spacer on the left.
