    150 to 230 volts, inclusive: If the Mortiser is to be re-wired for 230 volt operation, it will use an outlet that looks similar to the one in Figure 14. An appropriate 230 volt grounding plug must be installed on the power cord.
  • Page 14: Adjustments

    Adjustments Depth Stop 1. Loosen the handle and move the depth stop rod (Figure 16) up and temporarily out of the way. 2. Lower the head until the auger reaches the desired depth in front of the workpiece. See Figure 16. 3.
  • Page 15: Operation

    Operation The mortiser has a magnetic switch which is a valuable safety feature. Should electrical power be cut off while the machine is operating, the magnetic switch will prevent the machine from immediately re-starting when power is restored. To re-start the mortiser you must press the START button.
  • Page 16: Maintenance

    Wipe down the mortiser after each use and, as necessary, use light applications of oil or grease to lubricate linkages, moving parts, etc. If the power cord is worn, cut or damaged in any way, have it replaced immediately.
  • Page 17: Troubleshooting

    Take a lighter cut. If this does not solve the problem there is probably a loose electrical lead. Verify that mortiser is on a circuit of correct size. If circuit size is correct, there is probably a loose electrical lead.
