TO SQUARE THE CHISEL TO THE FENCE
1. Lower the head to its maximum position.
2. Place a piece of taller stock (minimum 3”) against the fence.
NOTE: Make sure you are using a piece of planed and squared stock that has an even
thickness.
3. Loosen the fence locking levers and slowly advance the fence with the piece of wood towards
the chisel.
If the face of the chisel sits flush
against the stock the chisel is square.
Tighten the chisel locking lever and
proceed with normal operation.
If the chisel does not sit flush:
1. Loosen the chisel lock lever and
manually turn the chisel until its face sits
flush against the stock.
2. Lock the lever to secure the chisel in
position.
