RECEIVING THE MORTISER

Remove mortiser and stand from the shipping cartons. Check
for damage and ensure all parts are intact. Any damage
should be reported immediately to your distributor and
shipping agent. Before assembling, read the manual
thoroughly, familiarizing yourself with correct assembly and
maintenance procedures and proper safety precautions.

INSTALLATION

The mortiser should be secured to the stand with four
M12 x 120 hex head screws (provided) using the holes
in the base. Make sure there is enough room on each
side of the mortiser for the size stock you plan to use.
WARNING The mortiser has a two-prong plug
and requires a grounded outlet.

2. Insert chisel bushing (with the hole facing forward) into
the head. Tighten the screw just enough to hold the chisel
in place. NOTE: Set the slot in the side of the chisel
to the left or right, NOT to the front or back. This will
allow chips to escape when do mortising.
3. Push the chisel up as far as possible into the head.
Then lower the chisel approximately 0.8mm to 1.6mm,
depending on the type of wood being worked.
Tighten the screw to hold chisel in place.
4. Push bit up through the chisel opening as far as
it will go. Lock the drill bit in place with the chuck key.
5. Loosen screw and push chisel up against the bushing,
then tighten screw. This should provide the proper
distance between the points of the chisel and the bit.

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current
to reduce the risk of electric shock. If you are not sure
whether your outlet is properly grounded, consult a
qualified electrician.
