Installing the Chisel and Bit 1. Select the size of mounting bush to suit the chisel being used and fit into the morticing head. 2. Insert the chisel into the bush and tighten the screw just enough to hold the chisel in place.
Operating Instructions 1. Set the depth of the mortice with the lower of the two depth stops (Fig C) on page 8. The upward travel of the head can be limited by adjusting the upper stop; this prevents unnecessary movement of the operating handle when cutting shallow mortices. 2.
Chisels and bits should be kept sharp for best performance, a discoloured tip is usually a sign of excessive heat caused by a blunt auger and/or chisel. Bits are best sharpened with a small file and chisels with the special mortice chisel sharpeners available through Axminster Power Tool Centre (03332 406406).
