Trimmer guide

Trimming, curved cuts in veneers for furniture and the like
can be done easily with the trimmer guide. The guide roller
rides the curve and assures a fine cut.
Loosen the wing bolts and secure the tool base horizontally.

Install the trimmer guide on the tool base with the clamp
screw (A). Loosen the clamp screw (B) and adjust the dis-
tance between the bit and the trimmer guide by turning the
adjusting screw (1 mm (3/64") per turn). At the desired dis-
tance, tighten the clamp screw (B) to secure the trimmer
guide in place.
