Mounting on the drill press table:
1. A minimum of 1-2'' thick plywood panel should be installed between the fence and top of the drill
press table to prevent damage to the bit and chisel when cutting the mortise. Drill a mounting hole
in the plywood to match the slots in the drill press table.
2. Place a washer (#12) on each of the 4-1/4'' screws (#14). Feed screws from underneath the drill
press, through the plywood, fence (#10), and rod holder (#9). Secure with washers (#12) and
wing nuts (#11).
3. Secure the steel rod (#8) to the rod holder with the set screw (#16).
4. Insert the curved rods (#13) through the rod holder and secure them in place by tightening the set
screws (#16).
5. Slide the arm (#7) onto the steel rod (#8) and secure it in place with the knob (#6).
Do not attempt to cut a mortise deeper than the depth capacity listed in the chart for each chisel.
Cutting a mortise beyond these limits could result in damage to the bit and chisel.
Keep hands clear from mortising attachment during use.
Use lock stop button before making adjustments.
1. Place the work piece on the drill press table and adjust the height of the table to provide a 1/2''
gap between the top of the work piece and the points on the chisel.
2. Run chisel down along the side of the work piece to gauge the depth of the mortise. Adjust the
depth stop on the drill press to control the depth of the cut.
3. Adjust the two curved rods (#13) to hold the work piece against the fence. Position the arm
against the work piece. Tighten the curved rods and the arm to apply light pressure on the work
piece. The work piece must be able to slide against the fence.
