against the fence (B) when cutting and that the
hoUddown (C) is propedy adjusted. See Figure 37.
2. Using the Raise/Lower handUe (D), Uower the chiseU
until it penetrates the workpiece.
NOTE: The rate of penetration of the chiseU must be
fast enough to prevent burning at the tip of the bit, but
not too fast as to staff the motor.
NOTE: You may encounter smoke from the bit or
matedaU once the chiseU has engaged the material.
The smoke created is a natural operating occurrence in
hollow chisel mortising and is caused by material chip
friction and the resins in the stock being burned off.
8. Thread the chuck onto the motor shaft and tighten.
