deep with an 8 mm (5/16") diameter bit or more than 5
mm (3/16") deep with a 20 mm (13/16") diameter bit,
make several passes with progressively deeper bit
settings.
Stopper block
The stopper block has three adjusting hex bolts which raise
or lower 0.8 mm (about 1/32") per turn. You can easily obtain
three different depths of cut using these adjusting hex bolts
without readjusting the stopper pole.
Adjust the lowest hex bolt to obtain the deepest depth of cut,
following the method of "Adjusting depth of cut". Adjust the
two remaining hex bolts to obtain shallower depths of cut.
The differences in height of these hex bolts are equal to the
differences in depths of cut.
To adjust the hex bolts, first loosen the hex nuts on the hex
bolts with the wrench and then turn the hex bolts. After
obtaining the desired position, tighten the hex nuts while
holding the hex bolts in that desired position. The stopper
block is also convenient for making three passes with pro-
gressively deeper bit settings when cutting deep grooves.
CAUTION:
When using a bit having total length of 60 mm (2 - 3/8")
or more, or edge length of 35 mm (1 - 3/8") or more, the
depth of cut cannot be adjusted as previously
mentioned. To adjust, proceed as follows:
Loosen the lock lever and carefully adjust bit protrusion
below the tool base to the desired depth of cut by
moving the tool body up or down. Then re-tighten the
lock lever to lock the tool body at that depth of cut. Keep
the tool body locked at this position during use. Since
the bit always protrudes from the tool base, be careful
when handling the tool.
Adjusting the lock lever
003255
The locked position of the lock lever is adjustable. To adjust
it, loosen the lock lever 3/4 turn and press the center of the
lock lever. The hex nut will come out. Set the hex nut to the
desired position and tighten the lock lever.
