WARNING
Warning - Hand injuries!

and detach compressed air supply!

Setting drilling depth

Drilling depth can be changed by turning the threaded
rod and locking it in place with the bottom Hexagon Nut.
One full turn alters the depth by 1 mm.

Edge distance

The distance from the edge is set by sliding the fence along
the scale. The setting is read at the marker on the front
edge of the fence. To make the setting, both screws must be
undone on the runner bracket and then tightened again (on
both sides) after the setting has been made. The scale shows
the edge distance in relation to the main spindle (centre of
hinge cup).

Pendulum stops

The stop profile is factory set to 0 at the centre of the main
spindle, making it possible to precision adjust stops to the
left and right on the basis of the millimetre scale.
After undoing the clamping screw, set stops to the required
dimension and retighten.

Hold-down clamp

Depending on panel thickness, hold-down clamps
must be vertically adjusted. A space of approx. 3 mm must
be allowed between workpiece and hold down foot
(e.g. by inserting an A/F 3 mm Allen key).
