Motor and moving table
The motor is mounted onto a plate that moves in all three directions and
angularly.
Horizontal and lateral movement is achieved with a gear stick type handle.
Vertical movement is achieved by operating a geared handle. Loosening 2
nuts and moving to the desired angle with the aid of a lever achieves angular
movement.
Stops are provided that limit the travel of the table both laterally and
horizontally.
An indexing facility is provided that allows you to drill holes at 16, 22, 25 or
32mm pitches. The chuck is mounted to the spindle of the motor.

Where to locate your mortiser
Before you remove your machine from the pallet select the area where you
will use your machine. There are no hard
and fast rules for its location but below
are a few guidelines:
1.
Ensure that there is sufficient
clearance all round the machine, as
you will have to have access to the
back of the machine.
2.
Adequate lighting. The better the
lighting the more accurate and
safely you will be able to work.
3.
Solid floor. You should select a solid
flat floor, preferably concrete or
something similar.
4.
Close to power source.
5.
Provide for a place that will be suitable for storing finished products
and blanks.
Assembling the motor and mounting
plate
The motor and mounting plate are not
assembled to the machine. They are
removed from the machine prior to
shipping because the assembly is heavy
and could cause damage to the
movement mechanism during transport.
To assemble the motor and mounting
plate, you will need two people, as the
assembly is heavy and awkward. Take
Stop pin
Motor mounting
plate rollers
Motor mounting plate fitted
Mounting plate rollers
