Using the Morticer Set the gap between auger cutting lip and chisel tips. Next set the chisel square to the back fence. The easiest way to do this is to lower the chisel and wind the sliding bed forwards until it just touches the back of the chisel.
Position the table so that the chisel cuts almost its complete width. The chippings will be ejected into the space created by the previous cut. Continue moving along the mortice, cutting a series of holes, until the complete length of the mortice has been cut.
